Gpc-tree is a library to work with the Google product categories / taxonomy in a tree structure where every node in the tree consists of a placement in the Google Product Taxonomy and its children (if there are any). It can load any of the available lists of Google product categories and has methods to:
- find a node in the tree
- find the parent of a node
- find the path of a node
- find the common ancestors between nodes
- reconstruct a line in the taxonomy file
Gpc-tree is published for Scala 2.13. To start using it add the following to your build.sbt:
libraryDependencies += "nl.gn0s1s" %% "gpc-tree" % "0.0.1"
