spacy Can't find model 'en_core_web_sm' on windows 10 and Python 3.5.3 :: Anaconda custom (64-bit)

what is difference between spacy.load('en_core_web_sm') and spacy.load('en')? This link explains different model sizes. But i am still not clear how spacy.load('en_core_web_sm') and spacy.load('en') differ

spacy.load('en') runs fine for me. But the spacy.load('en_core_web_sm') throws error

i have installed spacyas below. when i go to jupyter notebook and run command nlp = spacy.load('en_core_web_sm') I get the below error

You can also install them locally.

First download the file from the spacy repo: https://github.com/explosion/spacy-models/releases/tag/en_core_web_sm-3.7.1

Second you can use the command:

pip install your_path/en_core_web_sm-3.7.1.tar.gz

This will work-

try:
    nlp = spacy.load("en_core_web_trf")
except:
    print("Downloading spaCy NLP model...")
    print("This may take a few minutes and it's one time process...")
    os.system(
        "pip install https://huggingface.co/spacy/en_core_web_trf/resolve/main/en_core_web_trf-any-py3-none-any.whl")
    nlp = spacy.load("en_core_web_trf")

Example / How to use-

import spacy
import os

try:
    nlp = spacy.load("en_core_web_trf")
except:
    print("Downloading spaCy NLP model...")
    print("This may take a few minutes and it's one time process...")
    os.system("pip install https://huggingface.co/spacy/en_core_web_trf/resolve/main/en_core_web_trf-any-py3-none-any.whl")
    nlp = spacy.load("en_core_web_trf")


def perform_ner(*args, **kwargs):
    query = kwargs['query']
    # Process the input text with spaCy NLP model
    doc = nlp(query)

    # Extract named entities and categorize them
    entities = [(entity.text, entity.label_) for entity in doc.ents]

    return entities


if __name__ == "__main__":
    # Example input text
    input_text = "I want to buy a new iPhone 12 Pro Max from Apple."

    # Perform NER on input text
    entities = perform_ner(query=input_text)

    # Print the extracted entities
    print(entities)

Best is to follow the official spacy docs for installation (https://spacy.io/usage):

First uninstall your current spacy version

pip uninstall spacy

Then install pacy correctly

pip install -U pip setuptools wheel
pip install -U spacy
python -m spacy download en_core_web_sm

Try this method as this worked like a charm to me:

In your Anaconda Prompt, run the command:

!python -m spacy download en

After running the above command, you should be able to execute the below in your jupyter notebook:

spacy.load('en_core_web_sm')

Initially I downloaded two en packages using following statements in anaconda prompt.

python -m spacy download en_core_web_lg
python -m spacy download en_core_web_sm

But, I kept on getting linkage error and finally running below command helped me to establish link and solved error.

python -m spacy download en

Also make sure you to restart your runtime if working with Jupyter. -PS : If you get linkage error try giving admin previlages.

Don't run !python -m spacy download en_core_web_lg from inside jupyter. Do this instead:

import spacy.cli
spacy.cli.download("en_core_web_lg")

You may need to restart the kernel before running the above two commands for it to work.

For those who are still facing problems even after installing it as administrator from Anaconda prompt, here's a quick fix:

Got to the path where it is downloaded. For e.g.

C:\Users\name\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3\Lib\site-packages\en_core_web_sm\en_core_web_sm-2.2.0

Copy the path.

Paste it in:

nlp = spacy.load(r'C:\Users\name\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3\Lib\site-packages\en_core_web_sm\en_core_web_sm-2.2.0')

Works like a charm :)

PS: Check for spacy version

As for Windows based Anaconda,

Open Anaconda Prompt
Activate your environment. Ex: active myspacyenv
pip install https://github.com/explosion/spacy-models/releases/download/en_core_web_sm-2.2.0/en_core_web_sm-2.2.0.tar.gz
python -m spacy download en_core_web_sm
Open Jupyter Notebook ex: active myspacyenv and then jupyter notebook on Anaconda Promt

import spacy spacy.load('en_core_web_sm')

and it will run peacefully!

Run this in os console:

python -m spacy download en
python -m spacy link en_core_web_sm en_core_web_sm

Then run this in python console or on your python IDE:

import spacy
spacy.load('en_core_web_sm')

Check installed version of spacy pip show spacy You will get something like this:

Name: spacy Version: 3.1.3 Summary: Industrial-strength Natural Language Processing (NLP) in Python

Install the relevant version of the model using: !pip install -U https://github.com/explosion/spacy-models/releases/download/en_core_web_sm-3.0.0/en_core_web_sm-3.0.0.tar.gz

I faced a similar issue. I installed spacy and en_core_web_sm from a specific conda environment. However, I got two(02) differents issues as following:

[Errno 2] No such file or directory: '....\en_core_web_sm\en_core_web_sm-2.3.1\vocab\lexemes.bin' or OSError: [E050] Can't find model 'en_core_web_sm'.... It doesn't seem to be a shortcut link, a Python package or a valid path to a data directory.

I did the following:

Open Command Prompt as Administrator
Go to c:>
Activate my Conda environment (If you work in a specific conda environment):

c:\>activate <conda environment name>

(conda environment name)c:\>python -m spacy download en
Return to Jupyter Notebook and you can load the language library:

nlp = en_core_web_sm.load()

For me, it works :)

Even I faced similar issue. How I resolved it

start anaconda prompt in admin mode.
installed both python -m spacy download en and python -m spacy download en_core_web_sm after above steps only I started jupyter notebook where I am accessing this package. Now I can access both import spacy nlp = spacy.load('en_core_web_sm') or nlp = spacy.load('en') Both are working for me.

I'm running PyCharm on MacOS and while none of the above answers completely worked for me, they did provide enough clues and I was finally able to everything working. I am connecting to an ec2 instance and have configured PyCharm such that I can edit on my Mac and it automatically updates the files on my ec2 instance. Thus, the problem was on the ec2 side where it was not finding Spacy even though I installed it several different times and ways. If I ran my python script from the command line, everything worked fine. However, from within PyCharm, it was initially not finding Spacy and the models. I eventually fixed the "finding" spacy issue using the above recommendation of adding a "requirements.txt" file. But the models were still not recognized.

My solution: download the models manually and place them in the file system on the ec2 instance and explicitly point to them when loaded. I downloaded the files from here:

https://github.com/explosion/spacy-models/releases/download/en_core_web_sm-3.0.0/en_core_web_sm-3.0.0.tar.gz

https://github.com/explosion/spacy-models/releases/download/en_core_web_lg-3.0.0/en_core_web_lg-3.0.0.tar.gz

After downloading, I dropped moved them to my ec2 instance, decompressed and untared them in my filesystem, e.g. /path_to_models/en_core_web_lg-3.0.0/

I then load a model using the explicit path and it worked from within PyCharm (note the path used goes all the way to en_core_web_lg-3.0.0; you will get an error if you do not use the folder with the config.cfg file):

nlpObject = spacy.load('/path_to_models/en_core_web_lg-3.0.0/en_core_web_lg/en_core_web_lg-3.0.0')

Instead of any of the above, this solved my error.

conda install -c conda-forge spacy-model-en_core_web_sm

If you are an anaconda user, this is the solution.

This works with colab:

!python -m spacy download en
import en_core_web_sm
nlp = en_core_web_sm.load()

Or for the medium:

import en_core_web_md
nlp = en_core_web_md.load()

If you have already downloaded spacy and the language model (E.g., en_core_web_sm or en_core_web_md), then you can follow these steps:

Open Anaconda prompt as admin
Then type : python -m spacy link [package name or path] [shortcut]

For E.g., python -m spacy link /Users/you/model en

This will create a symlink to the your language model. Now you can load the model using spacy.load("en") in your notebooks or scripts

First of all, install spacy using the following command for jupyter notebook pip install -U spacy

Then write the following code:

import en_core_web_sm
nlp = en_core_web_sm.load()

I had also same issue as I couldnt load module using '''spacy.load()''' You can follow below steps to solve this on windows:

download using !python -m spacy download en_core_web_sm
import en_core_web_sm as import en_core_web_sm
load using en_core_web_sm.load() to some variable

Complete code will be:

python -m spacy download en_core_web_sm

import en_core_web_sm

nlp = en_core_web_sm.load()

I tried all the above answers but could not succeed. Below worked for me :

(Specific to WINDOWS os)

Run anaconda command prompt with admin privilege(Important)
Then run below commands:

  pip install -U --user spacy    
  python -m spacy download en

Try below command for verification:

import spacy
spacy.load('en')

It might work for others versions as well:

Steps to load up modules based on different versions of spacy

download the best-matching version of a specific model for your spaCy installation

python -m spacy download en_core_web_sm
pip install .tar.gz archive from path or URL
pip install /Users/you/en_core_web_sm-2.2.0.tar.gz

pip install https://github.com/explosion/spacy-models/releases/download/en_core_web_sm-2.2.0/en_core_web_sm-2.2.0.tar.gz

Add to your requirements file or environment yaml file. Theres range of version that one spacy version is comptable with you can view more under https://github.com/explosion/spacy-models/releases

if your not sure running below code

nlp = spacy.load('en_core_web_sm')

will give off a warning telling what version model will be compatible with your installed spacy verion

enironment.yml example

name: root
channels:
  - defaults
  - conda-forge
  - anaconda
dependencies:
  - python=3.8.3
  - pip
  - spacy=2.3.2
  - scikit-learn=0.23.2
  - pip:
    - https://github.com/explosion/spacy-models/releases/download/en_core_web_sm-2.3.1/en_core_web_sm-2.3.1.tar.gz#egg=en_core_web_sm

import spacy

nlp = spacy.load('/opt/anaconda3/envs/NLPENV/lib/python3.7/site-packages/en_core_web_sm/en_core_web_sm-2.3.1')

Try giving the absolute path of the package with the version as shown in the image.

It works perfectly fine.

Hope the above code works for all:)

Using the Spacy language model in Colab requires only the following two steps:

Download the model (change the name according to the size of the model)

!python -m spacy download en_core_web_lg

Restart the colab runtime! Perform shortcut key： Ctrl + M + .

Test

import spacy
nlp = spacy.load("en_core_web_lg")

successful!!!
