EntityN

A comma-separated list of entities to extract. Entities are defined in the grammar file that you set in the ResourceFiles parameter. Replace N with the zero-based rank of the entity.

You must associate each entity with a field by setting EntityFieldN.

You cannot use the entity name entities/ZoneStartN or entities/ZoneEndN (where N is a numeric value). These entity names are reserved for use by Eduction.

If you do not define an EntityN parameter, Eduction looks for all entities in all loaded grammar files. In this case, Eduction automatically generates the EntityFieldN settings from the entities found in grammar files, by converting the entity names to uppercase and replacing slashes with an underscore. For example, for the entity edk_common_entities/place, Eduction generates the entity field: EDK_COMMON_ENTITIES_PLACE.

If you want to use several entities, you can use wildcard expressions instead of typing a lengthy comma-separated list. For example:

Entity0=place/city1/*,place/city2/*
EntityField0=CITY
Entity1=place/*/spabo
EntityField1=BOLIVIAN_PLACE

You can use the * wildcard to match any number of characters, or the ? wildcard to match a single character.
