Myanmar Tools Java Documentation

This documentation is for Java specific usage of Myanmar Tools. For general documentation, see the top-level README.

Add this project as a dependency in your build.gradle file in Android Studio:

allprojects {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }
}

dependencies {
    compile 'com.google.myanmartools:myanmar-tools:1.0.1'
}

See the Android Studio documentation for more information on adding dependencies.

If you are using a pom.xml:

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.google.myanmartools</groupId>
  <artifactId>myanmar-tools</artifactId>
  <version>1.0.1</version>
</dependency>

To detect Zawgyi, create a static final instance of ZawgyiDetector, and call getZawgyiProbability with your string.

private static final ZawgyiDetector detector = new ZawgyiDetector();
double score = detector.getZawgyiProbability("မ္း");
// score is now 0.999772 (very likely Zawgyi)

To convert Zawgyi to Unicode, create a singleton instance of ICU Transliterator with the transform ID "Zawgyi-my", and call transliterate with your string.

private static final Transliterator converter = Transliterator.getInstance("Zawgyi-my");
String output = converter.transliterate("မ္း");
// output is now "မ်း"

For a complete working example, see samples/java/demo.java.
