[![Codacy Badge](https://api.codacy.com/project/badge/Grade/98a0992c0a254d0ba23fd75631fe2907)](https://app.codacy.com/app/Hironsan/doccano?utm_source=github.com&utm_medium=referral&utm_content=doccano/doccano&utm_campaign=Badge_Grade_Dashboard)
[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.com/doccano/doccano.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.com/doccano/doccano)

doccano is an open source text annotation tool for humans. It provides annotation features for text classification, sequence labeling and sequence to sequence tasks. So, you can create labeled data for sentiment analysis, named entity recognition, text summarization and so on. Just create a project, upload data and start annotating. You can build a dataset in hours.

## Demo

You can try the [annotation demo](http://doccano.herokuapp.com).

## Features

- Collaborative annotation
- Multi-language support
- Mobile support
- Emoji :smile: support
- Dark theme
- RESTful API

## Usage

Two options to run doccano:

- Production
- Development

In any case, you need Docker and Docker Compose. Anyway, you need to clone the repository:

```bash
$ git clone https://github.com/doccano/doccano.git
$ cd doccano
```

_Note for Windows developers: Be sure to configure git to correctly handle line endings or you may encounter `status code 127` errors while running the services in future steps. Running with the git config options below will ensure your git directory correctly handles line endings._

```bash
git clone https://github.com/doccano/doccano.git --config core.autocrlf=input
```

### Production

```bash
$ docker-compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up
```

Go to <http://0.0.0.0/>.

Note the superuser account credentials located in the `docker-compose.prod.yml` file:

```yml
ADMIN_USERNAME: "admin"
ADMIN_PASSWORD: "password"
```

> Note: If you want to add annotators, see [Frequently Asked Questions](./docs/faq.md)

<!--

### Docker

As a one-time setup, create a Docker container for Doccano:

```bash
docker pull doccano/doccano
docker container create --name doccano \
  -e "ADMIN_USERNAME=admin" \
  -e "ADMIN_EMAIL=admin@example.com" \
  -e "ADMIN_PASSWORD=password" \
  -p 8000:8000 doccano/doccano
```

Next, start Doccano by running the container:

```bash
docker container start doccano
```

To stop the container, run `docker container stop doccano -t 5`.
All data created in the container will persist across restarts.

Go to <http://127.0.0.1:8000/>.

-->

### Development

```bash
$ docker-compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml up
```

Go to <http://127.0.0.1:3000/>.
