spammy : Spam filtering at your service

spammy powers the web app https://plino.herokuapp.com

2   Features

  • train the classifier on your own dataset to classify your emails into spam or ham
  • Dead simple to use. See usage
  • Blazingly fast once the classifier is trained. (See benchmarks)
  • Custom exceptions raised so that when you miss something, spammy tells you where did you go wrong in a graceful way
  • Written in uncomplicated python
  • Built on top of the giant shoulders of nltk

3   Example

  • Your data directory structure should be something similar to
$ tree /home/tasdik/Dropbox/projects/spammy/examples/test_dataset
/home/tasdik/Dropbox/projects/spammy/examples/test_dataset
├── ham
│   ├── 5458.2001-04-25.kaminski.ham.txt
│   ├── 5459.2001-04-25.kaminski.ham.txt
│   ...
│   ...
│   └── 5851.2001-05-22.kaminski.ham.txt
└── spam
    ├── 4136.2005-07-05.SA_and_HP.spam.txt
    ├── 4137.2005-07-05.SA_and_HP.spam.txt
    ...
    ...
    └── 5269.2005-07-19.SA_and_HP.spam.txt

Example

>>> import os
>>> from spammy import Spammy
