SpannerLib: Embedding Declarative Information Extraction in an Imperative Workflow
Summary: SpannerLib embeds Spannerlog’s declarative document-spanner IE in Python workflows. It supports bidirectional integration: Python invokes spanner rules, while rules call user-defined code such as ML-based NLP models. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
