NLTK package missing

[nufaylr]

Hi there, I was exploring the library. Trying to install it via pip with conda env. and I'm getting ModuleNotFoundError

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'nltk'

version : sinling 0.3.5
environment : conda
os : BSD

Thank you for the library 👍

Hi,

I'm unable to replicate the issue with my setup. Can you try installing nltk using pip before installing sinling? You can use following command

pip install nltk

However, the package does not require you to install nltk as a base package for it to work. If the above does not work for you, you might want to clone this repository and add the path to the cloned repository to PYTHONPATH env variable.

Let me know how it goes.

Hi, Thank you for your prompt replying.

Yes 👍 it worked once i install nltk.

I was trying to reproduce by doing a fresh installation. This what I get when I run an examples

test_1.py

from sinling import preprocess, word_joiner
w1 = preprocess('මුනි')
w2 = preprocess('උතුමා')
results = word_joiner.join(w1, w2)
print(results)

This the error I get

  File "test_1.py", line 1, in <module>
    from sinling import preprocess, word_joiner
  File "/usr/local/Caskroom/miniconda/base/envs/py38-sinling/lib/python3.8/site-packages/sinling/__init__.py", line 1, in <module>

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'nltk'

Dose Pickle module using nltk as dependency again i can see its under nltk is under requirements.txt

maybe its conda issue :) it might needs its own channel to install.

Thank you for providing the error. Yes, it seems that I used a nltk package in the pickled resource. It is not a problem of conda, just current version is not configured to automatically install nltk when installing via pip. I'll update the configurations to fix the issue.

P.S. All packages that will be automatically installed when installing the package are listed in this file.
