A corpus processing and analysis pipeline for Quickref
In ELS 2021, the 14th european lisp symposium
Abstract Quicklisp is a library manager working with your existing Common Lisp implementation to download and install around 2000 libraries, from a central archive. Quickref, an application itself written in Common Lisp, generates, automatically and by introspection, a technical documentation for every library in Quicklisp, and produces a website for this documentation. In this paper, we present a corpus processing and analysis pipeline for Quickref. This pipeline consists of a set of natural language processing blocks allowing us to analyze Quicklisp libraries, based on natural language contents sources such as README files, docstrings, or symbol names.
