Setup Instructions

The Essentials

Be sure to have Python version 3.6 and PipEnv installed on your machine.

How To Get LexNLP Working Using Pipenv and the Pipfile Files

1. Start a terminal at the Flashcard Generator folder.
   
2. Use the command pipenv shell.
   This will launch a new Pipenv environment using the Pipfile files.
   
3. Launch the python console and use the command import nltk followed by nltk.download().
   
4. In the pop-up window, install "all".
   

How I got LexNLP working on Mac From Scratch

1. Download LexNLP.
   
2. Use Pipenv to make a Python 3.6 environment in your downloaded LexNLP folder
   
3. Use pipenv to install dependencies from python-requirements-full.txt
   
4. Manually install any dependencies which PipEnv failed to install (for me that was sklearn)
   
5. Launch the python console and use the command import nltk followed by nltk.download().
   
6. In the pop-up window, install "all".
