NO LONGER MAINTAINED.
An api to parse a CV, in particular the elements of its publication list.
To deploy, it used to work to use a custom buildpack (not sure if this is still the correct syntax for heroku) heroku config:set BUILDPACK_URL=https://github.com/stochastic-technologies/impactstory-buildpack.git -a heroku_app_name
Accepts POST requests to /parsecv/ either with a "url" field or a "file" field for pdf files.
URLs can point to a Mendeley user profile or a custom HTML CV. The only accepted file format is PDF. Multicolumn PDFs produce unpredictable results. Non-standard citation formats are parsed with less accuracy due to the training dataset using mostly standard citations.
Rate limiting is currently turned off due to the lack of a redis server on the test heroku instance.
To activate, uncomment the lines before and after the parse_request() method.
