👩‍💻 Usage

To use the model you first have to download either the small, medium, or large model. To see a list of all available models:

import dacy
for model in dacy.models():
    print(model)
# ...
# da_dacy_small_trf-0.2.0
# da_dacy_medium_trf-0.2.0
# da_dacy_large_trf-0.2.0

To download and load a model simply execute:

nlp = dacy.load("da_dacy_medium_trf-0.2.0")
