Installing spacy transformers via conda/mamba

[JovanVeljanoski]

Hi all,

I would like to ask if it is possible or if there are any plans to make spacy-transformers available on conda-forge, so that it can be installed via conda/mamba?

Technically, it is there, but (for me) the installation fails because a dependency (spacy-alignments) is not available on conda-forge.

Thank you!

OS: Mac OS (M1)
Python: 3.9
Env: conda/mamba.

We have added a spacy-transformers package to conda-forge relatively recently. Usually the additional architectures are added automatically to the builds not too long after the packages are first published, but sometimes a bot error or a missing dependency holds things up. I checked the conda-forge status and couldn't immediately figure out why spacy-alignments hasn't been processed yet for osx arm64.

A lot of the details are out of our hands here, but I'll see if I can find out a bit more about what's going on...

Thank you - appreciate it. I know that conda-forge recipes can be tricky at times..
