[feature request: Publish on Pip]

[andreaferretti]

Hi, is there a reason why OpenNMT-py is not published on Pip? I think it would be worthwhile, in order to make it easier to depend on it, and I see that OpenNMT-tf is already published there.

yes we'll try to have this, good point.

+1 that this would be very useful indeed. I currently use opennmt-py as a dependency for my diacritic restoration work and this would simplify packaging my lib (and pre-trained models) significantly.

Are there any updates on this point? Or possibly any other suggestions on how to depend on OpenNMT?

Also, it would be nice for the dependencies to be defined in the setup.py rather than the requirements.txt, so that they get pulled in as part of the install process.

Hi guys, we've been working on it and finally published OpenNMT-py on pip as release candidates (rc) for v1.0.0.

We introduce commands to call OpenNMT-py without pointing to *.py files : use instead onmt_train, onmt_preprocess, onmt_server, onmt_translate.

Command line options remains unchanged and we kept preprocess/train/translate/server.py in root for compatibility.

Feel free to use it and give us feedback about that !
