Installation of libraries
NimbleBox comes pre-installed with many common libraries but also offers flexibility to add most of the ML libraries in use today.To install libraries, you can use the pip command; a Python package manager included with NimbleBox.
NimbleBox makes the installation of libraries simple. You can install the libraries by running the following command.
pip install <package-name>The above command will install the latest version of the package available on NimbleBox.
Install a specific version of a machine learning library by including the exact version after the package name.
pip install ‘<package-name>==<version-number>’For example, you can use the following command to install nltk package of version 3.7
pip install nltk==3.7To upgrade a specific library to a recent version,
pip install —upgrade <package-name>Note that installation of any library will also consume storage space.
For example, you can use the following command to upgrade the nltk library
pip install --upgrade nltkTo uninstall any library, use the following command in the terminal
pip uninstall <package-name>
To uninstall any library using jupyter, use
pip uninstall <package-name> - y-y confirms yes to uninstall the package on Jupyter.
