Online demo is down

[alpgarcia]

Hi,

Not sure if this is the right place for this. Please let me know where I should post it instead if needed.

The online demo seems to be down since some days ago (at least). Each time I tried, I got a timeout.

Thanks for your help,
Alberto.

I've already restarted it once today. Either someone is hammering it, the machine is toast, or there's some bug which I don't know about. I suggest running it locally for the time being

Can you say anything about whether the demo will be back online at the same URL in the long run? I am referring to the URL in a book that will be printed in January or February, and I would like to avoid it being immediately outdated, if possible. Thank you very much!

[AngledLuffa]

It will. I just haven't thought about how to prevent the kind of long queries which were crashing it. You can thank whoever did that for making it not available currently

@melandresen @alpgarcia to easily run locally you can use this script

coursier launch --extra-jars stanford-corenlp-4.5.5-models-english.jar --extra-jars stanford-corenlp-4.5.5-models.jar org.slf4j:slf4j-simple:2.0.7  edu.stanford.nlp:stanford-corenlp:4.5.5 --main-class  edu.stanford.nlp.pipeline.StanfordCoreNLPServer -- -port 9000 -timeout 15000 -annotators "tokenize, ssplit, pos, lemma, depparse, natlog"

The dependencies you need are

• coursier installed
• jvm
• download the models from maven, in my case models.jar and models-english.jar and put in the same script path

Does anyone know how to instruct Coursier to also fetch maven classifiers?

Thanks @mkarmona!

I have the pending task of trying this: #1356 (comment)

In general, if you can have your users download external resources, I don't think you need to download all of those pieces yourself. I could be wrong, though.

For now, I've put the demo back up with a much lower max query length. If it crashes again, I'll look for other causes. In the meantime, I do recommend that if people are using the demo for more than just "let's see if CoreNLP can do this thing before we install it and start using it locally", the best approach is to install it and start using it locally. We just don't have the server capacity to support everyone who might want to use it otherwise.
