Setting up PyFreeLing in Mac OS Sierra

There are 4 types of dependencies:

• Homebrew, a package manager to install software in Mac
• FreeLing, an open source language analysis tool suite
• Python 3
• lxml, a Python library to work with XML
• libxml2 and libxslt C libraries which are dependencies of lxml

Install Homebrew

Follow Neil Gee's guide to install and set up homebrew for Mac OS Sierra

Install FreeLing

Use Homebrew to install FreeLing by running this command:

brew install freeling

Homebrew will take care of any dependencies.

Install Python 3

You can install Python 3 with Homebrew following the instructions from The Hitchhiker's Guide to Python or following the very complete Lisa Tagliaferri's guide.

Basically:

brew install python3

Install libxml2 and libxslt

macOS Sierra already provides libxml2 and libxslt. They can be installed through Homebrew though:

brew install libxml2
brew install libxslt

Install lxml

Now, you are ready to install lxml:

pip3 install lxml

Once you have installed FreeLing and all the dependencies, you will always need to start a FreeLing analyzer in server mode

Starting a FreeLing analyzer in server mode

analyze -f en.cfg --server --port 50005 &
