spacy_initialize

Initialize spaCy

Description

Initialize spaCy to call from R.

Usage

spacy_initialize(
  model = "en_core_web_sm",
  python_executable = NULL,
  virtualenv = NULL,
  condaenv = NULL,
  ask = FALSE,
  refresh_settings = FALSE,
  save_profile = FALSE,
  check_env = TRUE,
  entity = TRUE
)

Arguments

`model`	Language package for loading spaCy. Example: `en_core_web_sm` (English) and `de_core_web_sm` (German). Default is `en_core_web_sm`.
`python_executable`	the full path to the Python executable, for which spaCy is installed
`virtualenv`	set a path to the Python virtual environment with spaCy installed Example: `virtualenv = "~/myenv"`
`condaenv`	set a path to the anaconda virtual environment with spaCy installed Example: `condalenv = "myenv"`
`ask`	logical; if `FALSE`, use the first spaCy installation found; if `TRUE`, list available spaCy installations and prompt the user for which to use. If another (e.g. `python_executable`) is set, then this value will always be treated as `FALSE`.
`refresh_settings`	logical; if `TRUE`, spacyr will ignore the saved settings in the profile and initiate a search of new settings.
`save_profile`	logical; if `TRUE`, the current spaCy setting will be saved for the future use.
`check_env`	logical; check whether conda/virtual environment generated by `spacyr_istall()` exists
`entity`	logical; if `FALSE` is selected, named entity recognition is turned off in spaCy. This will speed up the parsing as it will exclude `ner` from the pipeline. For details of spaCy pipeline, see https://spacy.io/usage/processing-pipelines. The option `FALSE` is available only for spaCy version 2.0.0 or higher.
