This is my code
from nltk.tag import StanfordNERTagger
st = StanfordNERTagger('english.all.3class.distsim.crf.ser.gz')
And i get
NLTK was unable to find stanford-ner.jar! Set the CLASSPATH
environment variable.
This is what my .bashrc
looks like in ubuntu
export CLASSPATH=/home/wolfgang/Downloads/stanford-ner-2015-04-20/stanford-ner-3.5.2.jar
export STANFORD_MODELS=/home/wolfgang/Downloads/stanford-ner-2015-04-20/classifiers
Also, i tried printing the environmental variable in python this way
import os
os.environ.get('CLASSPATH')
And i recieve
'/home/wolfgang/Downloads/stanford-ner-2015-04-20/stanford-ner-3.5.2.jar'
Therefore the variables are being SET!
What is wrong then?
Why doe'snt nltk recognize my environmental variables?
change the .jar file and the environmental variable from stanford-ner-3.5.2.jar
to stanford-ner.jar
apparently NLTK has a name_pattern
variable in nltk_internals.py
which only accepts the CLASSPATH if it matches a regex of the value stanford-ner.jar
