TextTools

📌 Overview

TextTools is a high-level NLP toolkit built on top of LLMs.

It provides both sync (TheTool) and async (AsyncTheTool) APIs for maximum flexibility.

It provides ready-to-use utilities for translation, question detection, keyword extraction, categorization, NER extraction, and more - designed to help you integrate AI-powered text processing into your applications with minimal effort.

Note: Most features of texttools are reliable when you use google/gemma-3n-e4b-it model.

✨ Features

TextTools provides a rich collection of high-level NLP utilities, Each tool is designed to work with structured outputs.

• categorize() - Classifies text into given categories
• extract_keywords() - Extracts keywords from the text
• extract_entities() - Named Entity Recognition (NER) system
• is_question() - Binary question detection
• text_to_question() - Generates questions from text
• merge_questions() - Merges multiple questions into one
• rewrite() - Rewrites text in a diffrent way
• subject_to_question() - Generates questions about a specific subject
• summarize() - Text summarization
• translate() - Text translation
• propositionize() - Convert text to atomic independence meaningful sentences
• check_fact() - Check whether a statement is relevant to the source text
• run_custom() - Allows users to define a custom tool with an arbitrary BaseModel

🚀 Installation

Install the latest release via PyPI:

pip install -U hamtaa-texttools

📊 Tool Quality Tiers

Status	Meaning	Tools	Use in Production?
✅ Production	Evaluated, tested, stable.	categorize() (list mode), extract_keywords(), extract_entities(), is_question(), text_to_question(), merge_questions(), rewrite(), subject_to_question(), summarize(), run_custom()	Yes - ready for reliable use.
🧪 Experimental	Added to the package but not fully evaluated. Functional, but quality may vary.	categorize() (tree mode), translate(), propositionize(), check_fact()	Use with caution - outputs not yet validated.

⚙️ with_analysis, logprobs, output_lang, user_prompt, temperature, validator, priority and timeout parameters

TextTools provides several optional flags to customize LLM behavior:

• with_analysis: bool → Adds a reasoning step before generating the final output. Note: This doubles token usage per call.

• logprobs: bool → Returns token-level probabilities for the generated output. You can also specify top_logprobs=<N> to get the top N alternative tokens and their probabilities.
  Note: This feature works if it's supported by the model.

• output_lang: str → Forces the model to respond in a specific language.

• user_prompt: str → Allows you to inject a custom instruction or into the model alongside the main template. This gives you fine-grained control over how the model interprets or modifies the input text.

• temperature: float → Determines how creative the model should respond. Takes a float number from 0.0 to 2.0.

• validator: Callable (Experimental) → Forces TheTool to validate the output result based on your custom validator. Validator should return a boolean. If the validator fails, TheTool will retry to get another output by modifying temperature. You can also specify max_validation_retries=<N>.

• priority: int (Experimental) → Task execution priority level. Affects processing order in queues. Note: This feature works if it's supported by the model and vLLM.

• timeout: float → Maximum time in seconds to wait for the response before raising a timeout error Note: This feature only exists in AsyncTheTool.

🧩 ToolOutput

Every tool of TextTools returns a ToolOutput object which is a BaseModel with attributes:

• result: Any
• analysis: str
• logprobs: list
• errors: list[str]
• ToolOutputMetadata →
  • tool_name: str
  • processed_at: datetime
  • execution_time: float

Note: You can use repr(ToolOutput) to print your output with all the details.

🧨 Sync vs Async

Tool	Style	Use case
TheTool	Sync	Simple scripts, sequential workflows
AsyncTheTool	Async	High-throughput apps, APIs, concurrent tasks

⚡ Quick Start (Sync)

from openai import OpenAI
from texttools import TheTool

client = OpenAI(base_url = "your_url", API_KEY = "your_api_key")
model = "model_name"

the_tool = TheTool(client=client, model=model)

detection = the_tool.is_question("Is this project open source?")
print(repr(detection))

⚡ Quick Start (Async)

import asyncio
from openai import AsyncOpenAI
from texttools import AsyncTheTool

async def main():
    async_client = AsyncOpenAI(base_url="your_url", api_key="your_api_key")
    model = "model_name"

    async_the_tool = AsyncTheTool(client=async_client, model=model)
    
    translation_task = async_the_tool.translate("سلام، حالت چطوره؟", target_language="English")
    keywords_task = async_the_tool.extract_keywords("Tomorrow, we will be dead by the car crash")

    (translation, keywords) = await asyncio.gather(translation_task, keywords_task)
    print(repr(translation))
    print(repr(keywords))

asyncio.run(main())

👍 Use Cases

Use TextTools when you need to:

• 🔍 Classify large datasets quickly without model training
• 🌍 Translate and process multilingual corpora with ease
• 🧩 Integrate LLMs into production pipelines (structured outputs)
• 📊 Analyze large text collections using embeddings and categorization
