The minimal install instructions below are short but require a lot of prerequisite setup on your own. If you need more help then follow the step by step instructions. The step by step instructions for Eclipse assume a Windows or Ubuntu Linux install environment. You will need to extrapolate for any other environments.

Step

Example

1. Import the cTAKES projects using Maven.

File -> Import ... -> Maven -> Check out Maven Projects from SCM.
Click Next.


2. For SCM URL use "svn" in the drop-down

Code Block
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/ctakes/tags/ctakes-3.0.0-incubating

in the text field.
Click Finish.
Eclipse will download and build all of the cTAKES projects including running jcasgen as needed.


3. Download dictionary and model resources.

Info

Due to licensing considerations and easy of installability, one download from an external location was established with all the resources you will need. Licensing for these resources is found within the download.

Go to http://sourceforge.net/projects/ctakesresources/files/ and download the ZIP file with a matching version from the ctakesresources project.
Download time will be commensurate with 1GB of data.
Unzip the files into a temporary location.

Windows:

Code Block
langnone
C:\temp

Linux:

Code Block
langnone
/tmp

4. Copy (merge, no files should be named the same) the contents and subdirectories of the org directory resources directory (and all sub-directories) to <cTAKES_HOME>/resources/org.The destination will not yet exist.

Windows:

Code Block
langnone
copyxcopy /s C:\temp\ctakes-resources-3.1.0\resources\org C:\Users\m075861\workspace\ctakes\resources\org
copy
xcopy /s C:\temp\ctakes-resources-3.1.0\resources\org C:\apache-ctakes-3.0.0-incubating\resources\org
