Installation instructions

medtext is compatible with Python (3.6-3.8) and runs on Unix/Linux and macOS/OS X. The latest medtext releases are available over pypi.

Using pip, medtext releases are available as source packages and binary wheels. It is also generally recommended to install packages in a virtual environment to avoid modifying the system state:

# install a virtual environment
$ python -m venv venv
$ source venv/bin/activate
$ pip install -U pip setuptools wheel

# install medtext
$ pip install -U medtext

# download required models
$ bash download_all.sh
