Installing

Installing an official release

symspellpy and its dependencies are available as wheel packages for macOS, Windows and Linux distributions:

python -m pip install -U symspellpy

NOTE: symspellpy has only been tested on Windows and Linux systems and is assumed to work on macOS.

Dictionary data

The dictionary files that are shipped with symspellpy can be accesed using importlib.resources:

dictionary_path = importlib.resources.files("symspellpy") / "frequency_dictionary_en_82_765.txt"
bigram_path = importlib.resources.files("symspellpy") / "frequency_bigramdictionary_en_243_342.txt"

Alternatively, you can download the dictionary files from the repository and add them to your project directory:

curl -LJO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mammothb/symspellpy/master/symspellpy/frequency_dictionary_en_82_765.txt
curl -LJO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mammothb/symspellpy/master/symspellpy/frequency_bigramdictionary_en_243_342.txt

You could end up with a project directory layout like:

project_dir
+-frequency_bigramdictionary_en_243_342.txt
+-frequency_dictionary_en_82_765.txt
\-project.py
