FREE Sentiment Analysis ✌🏼 REST API for the community 🙏🏻

I've created a sentiment analysis REST API for the community ... Have a look

Link : https://sentim-api.herokuapp.com

How to use

Just send a POST request to

https://sentim-api.herokuapp.com/api/v1/
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

with headers of

Accept: "application/json", 
"Content-Type": "application/json"
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

and body

{ 
    "text": "Your text here"
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

And you'll get response like this:

{
  "result": {
    "polarity": 0.11,
    "type": "positive"
  },
  "sentences": [
    {
      "sentence": "We have been through much darker times than these, and somehow each generation of Americans carried us through to the other side,\" he said.",
      "sentiment": {
        "polarity": 0.04,
        "type": "positive"
      }
    },
    {
      "sentence": "\"Not by sitting around and waiting for something to happen, not by leaving it to others to do something, but by leading that movement for change themselves.",
      "sentiment": {
        "polarity": 0,
        "type": "neutral"
      }
    },
    {
      "sentence": "And if you do that, if you get involved, and you get engaged, and you knock on some doors, and you talk with your friends, and you argue with your family members, and you change some minds, and you vote, something powerful happens.",
      "sentiment": {
        "polarity": 0.3,
        "type": "positive"
      }
    }
  ]
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Enjoy 😎😎😎😎

@sharadcodes is this on a heroku free dyno? If yes, do you plan to maintain this since Heroku is now moving to paid only mode?
