It is not difficult to install
`spacy `_
on Windows. The site
`Unofficial Windows Binaries for Python Extension Packages `_
hosted a compiled version.
But I tried:
::
import spacy
spacy.load('fr')
And that did not work for an isue about utf-8.
It comes from the installation of module
`fr_core_news_sm `_.
It needs to be decompressed and the setup needs to be modified
(remove the second line about utf-8). Finally:
::
python setup.py install
Or to build it:
::
python setup.py bdist_wheel
