I am trying out this text spinner but I find it troubling when I try to add a line break in the string that gets created. As you can see in the code below, I add "\n"
but the output generated by the print(and also the content of the DataFrame) does not contain this break.
import spintax
df = pd.DataFrame()
for i in range(0, 50):
data = spintax.spin("{option1|option2}" + "\n" + " blablabla ")
df = df.append({'A': data}, ignore_index=True)
df['A'] = df['A'].str.replace(r'\s+', " ")
print(df)
How could I make it work?
print(df)
output looks like this:
A
0 option2 blablabla
1 option2 blablabla
2 option2 blablabla
3 option2 blablabla
4 option2 blablabla
So the problem lies when you replace r\s+ which also matches line breaks and replaces them with white spaces. source.
If you comment your line then following will retain the newline character in strings.
import spintax
df = pd.DataFrame()
for i in range(0, 50):
data = spintax.spin("{option1|option2}" + "\n" + " blablabla ")
df = df.append({'A': data}, ignore_index=True)
# df['A'] = df['A'].str.replace(r'\s+', " ")
print(df)
Is that what you wanted to achieve?
