Markov Polo

A No Bullshit™, Super-Tiny Markov Chain engine in Pure Ruby

Getting started is very simple. First, install the Gem:

  gem install markov-polo

or, in your gem file

  gem 'markov-polo'

Using the Gem is very simple. First, create a Chain

require 'markov-polo'

chain = MarkovPolo::Chain.new

To train your chain, it's just like with any Array.

chain << "These are some sample words"
chain.push "This is some more sample text"

Generating an output is also very simple

puts chain.generate   # => These are some more sample words

Getting access to the raw chain data can be done by:

chain.to_h            # => Hash

Restoring a chain from a hash can be done through the constructor

chain = MarkovPolo::Chain.new { ... }

Likewise, with the Hash, you can store your Chain as a JSON file, or other format of your choosing.

require 'json'
File.write "cache_chain.txt", JSON.generate(chain.to_h)
