tilter

Annotation tool TILTer for the annotation and conversion of privacy policies into the TILT schema.

Run Application

Prerequisites

SetUp

Docker-Compose

  1. Type source ops/variables/local.txt
  2. Type docker-compose up in the Terminal Window.
  3. Access http://localhost:5000 and http://localhost:5000/api/docs/ in your favorite Browser

Local

This is a setup Guide for Ubuntu.

  1. Create a Python Environment with python -m venv <your-env-name>
  2. Activate your python environment with source <your-env-name>/bin/activate
  3. Upgrade Pip with python -m pip install -U pip and install all necessary packages with pip install -r app/requirements.txt
  4. Type source ops/variables/local.txt
  5. Run the app with ./scripts/start_local.sh

Deployment

TILTer is deployed on a TU VM. Inside the VM the repository is clonded and has to be manually synched with the remote repository. For access to the VM ask Michael. In the engine a log is created from the console output via nohub. All output is saved in nohub.out in the root directory of the titler. The TILTer is available under: 'https://daskita-tilter.infra.ise-apps.de/'

It is recommended to use screens for managing the application on the compute engine.
Start a new screen by: screen -S <screen_name>
Reattach a screen by: screen -r <screen_name>
See all screens with: screen ls

Deployment variables are stored seperately.

The deployment will be active for 90 days (from 31.05.2021) without any costs. Afterwards running the TILTer will costs ~13 Euros per month.

The Deployment can be accessed under: http://34.141.64.214:5000/

Languages and Translations

Currently supported Languages are English (standard) and German. These are realized using the pybabel package. For more information regarding this topic please visit the babel documentation.

Adding New Languages

New languages are added using the pybabel command as follows:

  1. Append the code for the new Language to the LANGUAGES-list in config.py. For available language codes check the babel documentation.
  2. Add new text to be translated using the _([text]) command, where [text] is the string to be translated.
  3. Execute pybabel extract -F babel.cfg -o translations/messages.pot . in /app/.
  4. Execute pybabel init -i translations/messages.pot -d translations -l [code] in app, where [code] is the language code you chose in the first step.
  5. Now add translations using msgstr "" entries in the file to /app/translations/[code]/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po, where [code] again is the language code you chose in the first step.
  6. Compile the changes using pybabel compile -d translations in /app/.
  7. Restart the flask application via docker.

Updating Existing Languages

When updating existing languages there is no need to follow the whole procedure above. Instead use the following steps:

  1. Add new text to be translated using the _([text]) command, where [text] is the string to be translated.
  2. Execute pybabel extract -F babel.cfg -o translations/messages.pot . in /app/.
  3. Execute pybabel update -i translations/messages.pot -d translations in /app/.
  4. Now add translations using msgstr "" entries in the file to /app/translations/[code]/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po, where [code] is the language code associated with the target language.
  5. Compile the changes using pybabel compile -d translations in /app/.
  6. Restart the flask application via docker.

Creating a new labelling task

  1. Create yourself an account.
  2. Visit http://tilter.implementation.cloud/api/docs.
  3. POST /auth with your credentials and save your apiKey.
{
  "username": "janedoe",
  "password": "rEyl3TuS4Qq"
}
  1. Authorize in the upper right corner with your apiKey (e.g. eyJmcmVzaCI6ZmFsc2UsImlhdCI6MTYyNjUxOTA5OSwianRpIjoiM2Q0ODVkOGMtMmU4NS00OTg4LTk4YTEtNjlmYzI4NDI2MDgwIiwidHlwZSI6ImFjY2VzcyIsInN1YiI6ImVsaWFzZ3J1ZW5ld2FsZCIsIm5iZiI6MTYyNjUxOTA5OSwiZXhwIjoxNjI2NTE5OTk5fQ). Note: You need to generate a new one from time to time.
  2. POST /task/create with
{
  "name": "My Company",
  "text": "Here we describe how we collect, use, and handle your personal data when you use our websites, software, and services (\u201CServices\u201D). For more information and details, please see...",
  "html": false,
  "url": "https://mycompany.com/privacy"
}

Tip: Use https://www.freeformatter.com/json-escape.html to escape your text for correct json representation.

  1. Check the task list at http://tilter.implementation.cloud/tasks.
  2. Visit your created task and label all subtasks.
  3. Retrieve the resulting tilt document via http://tilter.implementation.cloud/api/task/:id/tilt where :id is something like 60d08460e26c9b911f6c81aa depending on your task.
