Run cd baleen; mvn package; ./start.sh to build an executable and run it.
Once running, the server can be accessed at http://localhost:6413. Use HTTP POST requests to have Baleen annotate data for you:
wget http://0.0.0.0:3124/sussex/consume --post-data='data=[{"text":"hello from www.google.com in Germany","id":"4"},{"text":"hello from www.google.com in Germany and drink 2 pints of water every day","id":"3"}]' -qO-
Responses are in the form
[{"text":"hello from www.google.com in Germany","id":"1","locations":[],"urls":["www.google.com"],"quantities":[]},{"text":"hello from www.google.com in Germany and drink 2 pints of water every day","id":"2","locations":[],"urls":["www.google.com"],"quantities":["2 pints"]}]
Currently only quantities, URLs and locations are extracted and returned.
