OSError: [E050] Can't find model 'en_core_web_sm'. It doesn't seem to be a Python package or a valid path to a data directory.

You probably need to run spacy download en_core_web_sm.

You post has a lot of issues. Here are some things that makes it easier for us to help you:

1. Explain what you're trying to do, and how you got this error. Don't just post an error message.
2. Say what version of spaCy you're using, and if possible share the output of spacy info.
3. Don't post code as screenshots, copy/paste it so we can search the text. Also screenshots may be small or blurry and hard to read.

I'm sorry to give a big list of things on your first issue here, but following the steps above really does help us figure out your problem and how to fix it faster.

Quickstart should work in a virtualenv or globally, but it's always better to use a clean virtualenv. Using a fresh env with conda rather than the base env also sometimes resolves issues, as described in the issue you linked to.

Error finally solved because encore library is not supported by latest version of spacy that is 3.0.1 but when I tried with pip install
spacy == 3.0.0 it succesfully compiled

Uh, you posted a lot of logs without comment or explanation and then deleted some of them, so I'm not entirely sure what happened, but glad you got it working.

At an earlier point you had an error about the model v3.0.0 and spaCy v3.1.1 not being compatible. That can happen if you download the model and then upgrade spaCy. After upgrading you need to download the model again to get the latest version.

Also note the latest version of spaCy is 3.1.1.

Also, some of your deleted comments referred to LDA, so I'll mention again that spaCy has no features for topic modelling or LDA.

Do you know the latest version of spacyv3.0.1 is not compatible with encore library
