NLPeasy Workshop

Build NLP pipelines the easy way

Repository for the NLPeasy workshop.

For the workshop you have 2 possibilities to participate.

Mybinder.org

Online version so now installation needed on your laptop - might even work on a laptop ;-)

https://mybinder.org/v2/gh/d-one/NLPeasy-workshop/master?urlpath=lab

However, there is only 1-2 GB of RAM available, which is tough for our example. Also if you loose your connection or close your laptop for 10 minutes your session is lost.

Own Laptop

You can work on your own laptop or server. For this you need:

• This Repository

• A Python Environment (>=3.6)

• Access to an Elasticsearch and Kibana Server: NLPeasy supports both connecting to an existing one or it can start one for you on docker. For this install one of the following:

• Docker https://www.docker.com/get-started, direct download links for Mac (DMG) and Windows (exe).

• Elasticsearch and Kibana: https://www.elastic.co/downloads/ or https://www.elastic.co/downloads/elasticsearch-oss (pure Apache licensed version, does not include Java SDK!)

Setup

Get this repository:

git clone https://github.com/d-one/nlpeasy-workshop
cd nlpeasy-workshop

Then setup a virtual environment, install requirements and download a spaCy-model: Then on the terminal issue:

python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
python -m spacy download en_core_web_md

Start Jupyter Lab

Still in the activated virtual env venv you now can start jupyter lab

jupyter lab

and navigate to the hands-on-1.ipynb Notebook.
