Installation guide¶
How to install¶
To install pylazaro
, you simply need to run the following command:
$ pip install pylazaro
Note
pylazaro
works best on Python 3.8. We don’t recommend installing pylazaro
on Python 3.10, as it may result in some incompatibilities (related to the sentencepiece
package).
Extended installation¶
There is an extended installation option for pylazaro
. This extended installation is needed if you want to run the CRF model for Lazaro (see section 3.1 from this paper). However, it is unlikely that you will ever need to run that model, as the CRF model is the worst performing model of all models offered through the library. The extended installation is probably only useful for research or development purposes, but not for final users.
If you still wish to install the extended version, see below the commands you need to run.
Warning
This extended installation will take up more memory space and will take some time to install. The basic installation should suit most use cases and we recommend that you stick to the basic installation whenever possible.
$ pip install pylazaro
$ python -m pylazaro extended
$ python -m spacy download es_core_news_md
How to uninstall¶
To uninstall pylazaro
, simply run:
$ pip uninstall pylazaro
If you installed the extended version, running pip unistall pylazaro
will not suffice. You will also need to navigate to pylazaro
’s package folder in your site-package
folder and remove all remaining files (model and embeddings).
$ rm -r site-package/pylazaro
