Could not initialize term mention filter: io.lumify.clavin.ClavinTermMentionFilter

[Apurv Tiwari]

I have recently downloaded this project and set it up on my IDE (as per documentation). I uploaded 2 ontologies ontology-dev and wikipedia as well. Subsequently when I run the application on jetty it throws a ClavinTermMentionFilterException stacktrace below :

From the error it seems it is looking for a config clavin.IndexDirectory in some config file. After tracing the configurations it seems it is looking for this in lumify.properties which has no clavin.indexDirectory property. I can't seem to find the same in any documentation either. 

Also, while uploading the sample data for wikipedia there was a step involving Re-indexind the data which is documented  here. I think there is a typo in the module name there. Instead of lumify-wikipedia-mr it should have been lumify-reindex-mr ?

See https://github.com/lumifyio/lumify/blob/develop/docs/CLAVIN.md for instructions on getting CLAVIN up and running, along with a sample properties file for configuring Lumify to use it. You can also find a prebuilt index (use the more recent 2.0.0 index for the development branch) at https://bits.lumify.io/data.

Hi Apurv,

Thanks

Hi Vincenzo,

Yes I did. Gordon's suggests correctly to follow https://github.com/lumifyio/lumify/blob/develop/docs/CLAVIN.md to configure CLAVIN

Hi everyone,

I'm the original creator of CLAVIN and a former member of the Lumify development team. Both projects have languished a bit in recent years. Most of the original Lumify team has moved on to a new project called Visallo and I recently launched a new REST-based web API for extracting location information from unstructured text. It's called Geoparser.io and I'd be happy to send you an API key if you'd like to check it out. :)

Geoparser.io should be a lot easier than CLAVIN to get working with either Lumify or Visallo.

Cheers,

Charlie
