GBIF Name Parser(s)
The project contains various implementations of parsers for scientific names.
At the core there is an independent parser mainly based on regular expression with minimal dependencies.
The modules provided by this project are:
- name-parser: The main GBIF Name Parser implementing the API natively
- name-parser-api: The minimal API to represent parsed names.
- name-parser-v1: The GBIF Name Parser wrapped to implement the GBIF API
The GBIF name parser has been tested with millions of GBIF names over many years.
An extensive body of unit tests has been created over the years that guarantee high parsing qualities.
