AttributeError: 'English' object has no attribute 'noun_chunks

I'm trying to use spacy noun_chunks but it's throwing an error. I downloaded the model with python -m spacy download en_core_web_sm

AttributeError: 'English' object has no attribute 'noun_chunks'

NLP = spacy.load('en_core_web_sm')
NOUN_CHUNKS = NLP.noun_chunks

How did you come up with that code? The loaded nlp processing object doesn't have a property noun_chunks – instead, you want to be accessing the noun chunks of a processed document:

nlp = spacy.load("en_core_web_sm")  # load the English model
doc = nlp("There is a big dog.")    # process a text and create a Doc object
for chunk in doc.noun_chunks:       # iterate over the noun chunks in the Doc
   print(chunk.text)
# 'a big dog'

For more details, see the documentation here.
