I am getting Permission error 13 when trying to save a trained model in spacy. I have tried changing the directory as well. I am trying to reproduce this example given here, to train custom entities in spacy`s named entity recognizer.
import random
TRAIN_DATA = [
("Uber blew through $1 million a week", {'entities': [(0, 4, 'ORG')]}),
("Google rebrands its business apps", {'entities': [(0, 6, "ORG")]})
]
nlp = spacy.blank('en')
optimizer = nlp.begin_training()
for i in range(20):
random.shuffle(TRAIN_DATA)
for text, annotations in TRAIN_DATA:
nlp.update([text], [annotations], sgd=optimizer)
nlp.to_disk('/model')
Here is the error I am getting

PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/model'
I think that it can be that the path you use /model
is seen as an absolute path, so either exits a /model
directory writeable by the user or you can try to use a path like ./model
which is a relative path
