Hi Giovanni:
Thanks for the response. This is my fault but I’m starting to get confused. In part because I am jumping from install.md to install.md
I currently have three different directories. One for Almond-server, one for Thingpedia, and one for genie. I am going to restart and put these directories under one directory “almond-development.” In turn, I am going to make one virtual environment (venv) so I can install genienlp and anything else Python specific.
I seem to need a developer key. I can’t do the following
thingpedia download-string-values -d parameter-datasets/ --manifest parameter-datasets.tsv --append-manifest. I’m looking for the documentation about getting the developer key.
As for configuring Almond to talk to a local model, I recommend using almond-server for this use case. almond-server is configured using environment variables. Set THINGENGINE_NLP_URL
in your environment to a file:///
URL containing the absolute path of a trained model, or a http://
URL pointing to a running genie server
serving the model.
Other commands in Genie can also be pointed to a local model, typically by passing a file:///
URL in place of a model HTTP URL.
I’ll assume if I get the developer key in place, I can follow the remainder of the steps in genie-toolkit/doc/tutorial-basic.md ? That said, relative to the genie-toolkit main directory, where should the trained model be? The ‘data’ directory? embeddings? Does it have an extension (i.e., tsv?)
Cheers,
Andrew
