REST API #331
Description
With the transition in Study 4 to using text chat rather than voice, there will likely be a need for some pre-processing of the text before it is sent to Odin for event extraction. I propose we split off the Odin portion into a standalone REST API.
@jastier - there are a couple of existing REST APIs for Odin, perhaps you can take a look at them to speed up your implementation:
- https://github.com/clu-ling/processors-server - this is a domain-independent server. It requires the rules to be sent as part of the request.
- https://github.com/clulab/reach/blob/master/export/src/main/scala/org/clulab/reach/export/server/ApiServer.scala - this is a server for extracting things specific to the biomedical domain.
