changeIdName.py

Provides useful and funny names for your git / whatever change ID (or really any long hex string that you need to refer to). Names for change IDs are given as adjective noun phrases.

Usage

Working on a good CLI, but for the moment, just import changeIdName and use one of the following methods changeIdPhraseStandard or moreFrequentChangeIdPhrase.

Both give good results. The first function will give a name that may be less frequent (in terms of the English language) but is less likely to collide wit the names of other change IDs. The second method will give a name with more frequently used english words, but it is more likely to collide with the names of other change IDs. I don't think collisions are super likely, but they are pretty possible.

Resources

To make it work you'll need the resources folder with only three of the included files: adjectives-sub.dawg, nouns-sub.dawg, and noun-adj-freqs.txt

The other resources may be useful to you, and are as follows:

  • adjectives-sub.dawg -- The .dawg file computed from adjectives-sub.txt
  • adjectives-sub.txt -- The subset of adjectives for which I had frequency data
  • adjectives.dawg -- The .dawg file computed from adjectives.txt
  • adjectives.txt -- A list of adjectives in the English language
  • noun-adj-freqs.txt -- A list of all the nouns and adjectives with their frequencies
  • nouns-sub.dawg -- The .dawg file computed from nouns-sub.txt
  • nouns-sub.txt -- The subset of nouns for which I had frequency data
  • nouns.dawg -- The .dawg file computed from nouns.txt
  • nouns.txt -- A list of nouns in the English language
  • twl06.dawg -- The .dawg file computed from twl06.txt
  • twl06.txt -- The 2006 Tournament Word List, complete Scrabble word list
