MacOS

Hello, is it possibile to use this tool on MacOS or it runs only on Linux?
I read that Linux is a requirement but I tried anyway to run it and I got an error at compile time:

./getopt.h:131:12: error: conflicting types for 'getopt'
extern int getopt ();
           ^
/usr/include/unistd.h:503:6: note: previous declaration is here
int      getopt(int, char * const [], const char *) __DARWIN_ALIAS(getopt);
         ^

    char *tmp = "TinySVM::Param::set";
                ^
1 warning and 1 error generated.

ld: library not found for -lcrt0.o
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

Is this related to MacOS?

I met this too, but it seems TinySVM is to be blamed.

Hey, guys, good news for Mac users!

I ended up being able to build on Mac (10.12.6) by doing the following:

Download TinySVM and unzip it to the folder of twitter_nlp-master:
https://github.com/shogo82148/TinySVM

Change build.sh in twitter_nlp-master as below:
cd hbc/models
gcc -O3 labels.c stats.c samplib.c LabeledLDA_infer_stdin.c -o LabeledLDA_infer_stdin.out -lm
cd ../../TinySVM
./configure --prefix=pwd/../ && make && make install
cd ../python/cap
./build.sh

Then change the python/cap/build.sh into like below:

c++ -o cap_classify cap_classify.cpp -ltinysvm

Then run
$ ./build.sh
$ export TWITTER_NLP=./
$ cat test.1k.txt | python2 python/ner/extractEntities2.py

Dont forget to install tinysvm anyway using :
$ brew install tinysvm

This works!
Below is part of the result:
