This repository is DEPRECATED, please use the REST API of rstWeb instead: https://github.com/NLPbox/rstweb-service
This docker container allows you to build, install and run rstviewer as a REST API in a docker container.
rstviewer is a command-line tool for converting Rhetorical Structure Theory
rs3 files into images. It is heavily based on Amir Zeldes' rstWeb, a web based
annotation tool for rhetorical structures.
You can either build the service locally and run it like this:
git clone https://github.com/NLPbox/rstviewer-service
cd rstviewer-service
docker build -t rstviewer-service .
docker run -p 8000:8000 -ti rstviewer-service
Or, you can just run a pre-built docker container from Docker Hub:
docker run -p 8000:8000 -ti nlpbox/rstviewer-service
rstviewer-service can either convert an .rs3 file into a .png image
of the Rhetorical Structure tree or return a base64 encoded string of
a .png image.

curl -X POST -F "input=@input.rs3" http://localhost:8000/rs3_to_png_base64 | base64 --decode > decoded.png
