Reference documentation and code samples for the Cloud Natural Language V1 Client class EncodingType.

Represents the text encoding that the caller uses to process the output.

Providing an EncodingType is recommended because the API provides the beginning offsets for various outputs, such as tokens and mentions, and languages that natively use different text encodings may access offsets differently.

Constants

NONE

Value: 0

If EncodingType is not specified, encoding-dependent information (such as begin_offset) will be set at -1.

Generated from protobuf enum NONE = 0;

UTF8

Value: 1

Encoding-dependent information (such as begin_offset) is calculated based on the UTF-8 encoding of the input. C++ and Go are examples of languages that use this encoding natively.

Generated from protobuf enum UTF8 = 1;

UTF16

Value: 2

Encoding-dependent information (such as begin_offset) is calculated based on the UTF-16 encoding of the input. Java and JavaScript are examples of languages that use this encoding natively.

Generated from protobuf enum UTF16 = 2;

UTF32

Value: 3

Encoding-dependent information (such as begin_offset) is calculated based on the UTF-32 encoding of the input. Python is an example of a language that uses this encoding natively.
