        ******************************
        
        spaCy is a library for advanced natural language processing in Python and
        Cython. spaCy is built on  the very latest research, but it isn't researchware.
        It was designed from day one to be used in real products. spaCy currently supports
        English and German,  as well as tokenization for Chinese, Spanish, Italian, French,
        Portuguese, Dutch, Swedish, Finnish, Hungarian, Bengali and Hebrew. It's commercial
        open-source software, released under the MIT license.

        **Python version**   CPython 2.6, 2.7, 3.3+. Only 64 bit.
        **Package managers** `pip`_ (source packages only), `conda`_ (via ``conda-forge``)
        ==================== ===
        
        .. _pip: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/spacy
        .. _conda: https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/spacy
        
        Install spaCy
        =============
        
        Installation requires a working build environment. See notes on Ubuntu,
        macOS/OS X and Windows for details.
        
        pip
        ---
        
        Using pip, spaCy releases are currently only available as source packages.
        
        .. code:: bash
        
            pip install -U spacy
        
        When using pip it is generally recommended to install packages in a ``virtualenv``
        to avoid modifying system state:
        
        .. code:: bash
        
            virtualenv .env
            source .env/bin/activate
            pip install spacy
        
        conda
        -----
        
        Thanks to our great community, we've finally re-added conda support. You can now
        install spaCy via ``conda-forge``:
        
        .. code:: bash
        
            conda config --add channels conda-forge
            conda install spacy
        
        For the feedstock including the build recipe and configuration,
        check out `this repository <https://github.com/conda-forge/spacy-feedstock>`_.
        Improvements and pull requests to the recipe and setup are always appreciated.
        
        Download models
        ===============
        
        As of v1.7.0, models for spaCy can be installed as **Python packages**.
        This means that they're a component of your application, just like any
        other module. They're versioned and can be defined as a dependency in your
        ``requirements.txt``. Models can be installed from a download URL or
        a local directory, manually or via pip. Their data can be located anywhere on
        your file system. To make a model available to spaCy, all you need to do is
        create a "shortcut link", an internal alias that tells spaCy where to find the
        data files for a specific model name.
        
        ======================= ===
        `spaCy Models`_         Available models, latest releases and direct download.
        `Models Documentation`_ Detailed usage instructions.
        ======================= ===
        
        .. _spaCy Models: https://github.com/explosion/spacy-models/releases/
        .. _Models Documentation: https://spacy.io/docs/usage/models
        
        .. code:: bash
        
            # out-of-the-box: download best-matching default model
            python -m spacy download en
        
            # download best-matching version of specific model for your spaCy installation
            python -m spacy download en_core_web_md
        
            # pip install .tar.gz archive from path or URL
            pip install /Users/you/en_core_web_md-1.2.0.tar.gz
            pip install https://github.com/explosion/spacy-models/releases/download/en_core_web_md-1.2.0/en_core_web_md-1.2.0.tar.gz
        
            # set up shortcut link to load installed package as "en_default"
            python -m spacy link en_core_web_md en_default
        
            # set up shortcut link to load local model as "my_amazing_model"
            python -m spacy link /Users/you/data my_amazing_model
        
        Loading and using models
        ------------------------
        
        To load a model, use ``spacy.load()`` with the model's shortcut link:
        
        .. code:: python
        
            import spacy
            nlp = spacy.load('en_default')
            doc = nlp(u'This is a sentence.')
        
        If you've installed a model via pip, you can also ``import`` it directly and
        then call its ``load()`` method with no arguments. This should also work for
        older models in previous versions of spaCy.
        
        .. code:: python
        
            import spacy
            import en_core_web_md
        
            nlp = en_core_web_md.load()
            doc = nlp(u'This is a sentence.')
        
        📖 **For more info and examples, check out the** `models documentation <https://spacy.io/docs/usage/models>`_.
        
        Support for older versions
        --------------------------
        
        If you're using an older version (v1.6.0 or below), you can still download and
        install the old models from within spaCy using ``python -m spacy.en.download all``
        or ``python -m spacy.de.download all``. The ``.tar.gz`` archives are also
        `attached to the v1.6.0 release <https://github.com/explosion/spaCy/tree/v1.6.0>`_.
        To download and install the models manually, unpack the archive, drop the
        contained directory into ``spacy/data`` and load the model via ``spacy.load('en')``
        or ``spacy.load('de')``.
        
        Compile from source
        ===================
        
        The other way to install spaCy is to clone its
        `GitHub repository <https://github.com/explosion/spaCy>`_ and build it from
        source. That is the common way if you want to make changes to the code base.
        You'll need to make sure that you have a development enviroment consisting of a
        Python distribution including header files, a compiler,
        `pip <https://pip.pypa.io/en/latest/installing/>`__, `virtualenv <https://virtualenv.pypa.io/>`_
        and `git <https://git-scm.com>`_ installed. The compiler part is the trickiest.
        How to do that depends on your system. See notes on Ubuntu, OS X and Windows for
        details.
        
        .. code:: bash
        
            # make sure you are using recent pip/virtualenv versions
            python -m pip install -U pip virtualenv
            git clone https://github.com/explosion/spaCy
            cd spaCy
        
            virtualenv .env
            source .env/bin/activate
            pip install -r requirements.txt
            pip install -e .
        
        Compared to regular install via pip `requirements.txt <requirements.txt>`_
        additionally installs developer dependencies such as Cython.
        
        Instead of the above verbose commands, you can also use the following
        `Fabric <http://www.fabfile.org/>`_ commands:
        
        ============= ===
        ``fab env``   Create ``virtualenv`` and delete previous one, if it exists.
        ``fab make``  Compile the source.
        ``fab clean`` Remove compiled objects, including the generated C++.
        ``fab test``  Run basic tests, aborting after first failure.
        ============= ===
        
        All commands assume that your ``virtualenv`` is located in a directory ``.env``.
        If you're using a different directory, you can change it via the environment
        variable ``VENV_DIR``, for example:
        
        .. code:: bash
        
            VENV_DIR=".custom-env" fab clean make
        
        Ubuntu
        ------
        
        Install system-level dependencies via ``apt-get``:
        
        .. code:: bash
        
            sudo apt-get install build-essential python-dev git
        
        macOS / OS X
        ------------
        
        Install a recent version of `XCode <https://developer.apple.com/xcode/>`_,
        including the so-called "Command Line Tools". macOS and OS X ship with Python
        and git preinstalled.
        
        Windows
        -------
        
        Install a version of `Visual Studio Express <https://www.visualstudio.com/vs/visual-studio-express/>`_
        or higher that matches the version that was used to compile your Python
        interpreter. For official distributions these are VS 2008 (Python 2.7),
        VS 2010 (Python 3.4) and VS 2015 (Python 3.5).
        
        Run tests
        =========
        
        spaCy comes with an `extensive test suite <spacy/tests>`_. First, find out where
        spaCy is installed:
        
        .. code:: bash
        
            python -c "import os; import spacy; print(os.path.dirname(spacy.__file__))"
        
        Then run ``pytest`` on that directory. The flags ``--vectors``, ``--slow``
        and ``--model`` are optional and enable additional tests:
        
        .. code:: bash
        
            # make sure you are using recent pytest version
            python -m pip install -U pytest
        
            python -m pytest <spacy-directory> --vectors --models --slow
