# Document snippet

Get a snippet of the document.

URL : /blacklab-server/<corpus-name>/docs/<pid>/snippet

Method : GET

# Parameters

All position elements refer to token position in a document, 0-based.

You should either specify wordstart and wordend for a snippet without a hit, or hitstart, hitend and (optionally) context for a snippet around a hit.

Partial contents XML output will be wrapped in <blacklabResponse/> element to ensure a single root element.

Parameter	Description
`wordstart`	First word of the snippet/part of the document we want.
`wordend`	First word after the snippet/part of the document we want. -1 for the last word.
`hitstart`	First word of the hit we want a snippet around (default: 0)
`hitend`	First word after the hit we want a snippet around (default: 1)
`context`	(formerly `wordsaroundhit`) When specifying `hitstart` and `hitend`, this specifies how much context around the hit we want in our snippet. Examples: `5` gives 5 words around hit, `5:10` gives 5 before and 10 after, `s` returns full sentences (if `s` is an inline tag in your data)
`usecontent`	`fi` or `orig`. `fi` (default) uses the forward index to reconstruct document content (for snippets and concordances; inline tags are lost in the process), `orig` uses the original XML from the content store (slower but more accurate). NOTE: using the original content may cause problems with well-formedness; these are fixed automatically, but the fix may result in inline tags in strange places (e.g. a start-sentence tag that is not at the start of the sentence anymore)
`listvalues`	Comma-separated list of annotation names to include. By default, all annotations are included.

# Success Response
