Importing

You can import your own corpora into LCP using a tool called lcpcli. This page describes how to use it.

LCPCLI

The tool lcpcli is a python library that lets you prepare and upload LCP corpora. It can be imported in python or used in a command line.

Make sure you have python 3.11+ with pip installed in your local environment, then run

pip install lcpcli

To prepare an LCP corpus before importing it, you can either:

Once you have prepared your corpus files, you can upload them to a collection in LCP by following these steps:

Visit an LCP instance (e.g. catchphrase) and create a new collection if you don't already have one where your corpus should go.
Retrieve the API key and secret for your collection by clicking on the button that says: "Create API Key"

The secret will appear at the bottom of the page and remain visible only for 120s, after which it will disappear forever (you would then need to revoke the API key and create a new one)

The key itself is listed above the button that says "Revoke API key" (make sure to not copy the line that starts with "Secret Key" along with the API key itself)
Once you have your API key and secret, you can start converting and uploading your corpus by running the following command:

lcpcli -i $CONLLU_FOLDER -o $OUTPUT_FOLDER -m upload -k $API_KEY -s $API_SECRET -p $COLLECTION --live

$CONLLU_FOLDER should point to the folder that contains your CONLLU files.
$OUTPUT_FOLDER should point to another folder that will be used to store the converted files to be uploaded.
$API_KEY is the key you copied from your collection on LCP (still visible when you visit the page).
$API_SECRET is the secret you copied from your collection on LCP (only visible upon API Key creation).
$COLLECTION is the name of the collection exactly as displayed on LCP — it is case-sensitive, and space characters should be escaped.
