Parse chinese character to jyutping

I’ve gone through the documentation but did not find how to convert Chinese sentence to jyutping. For example something like this.

import pycantonese as pc

pc.parse_to_jyutping("我係香港人")
'ngo5 hai6 hoeng1 gong2 jan4'

Hello everyone, I finally got around to finish some related work and just made a new release of pycantonese v2.4.1 to PyPI (pip install -U pycantonese should install the latest release). The new characters2jyutping() function does what this ticket asks for:

>>> import pycantonese as pc
>>> pc.characters2jyutping('我係香港人')
['ngo5', 'hai6', 'hoeng1', 'gong2', 'jan4']

Docs: http://pycantonese.org/jyutping.html#characters-to-jyutping-conversion

(Relatedly, this new pycantonese release also includes word segmentation, which the characters-to-jyutping conversion functionality depends on: http://pycantonese.org/word_segmentation.html)

I’m closing this ticket as resolved. Please feel free to let me know if there are other questions. Thanks!
