Grammar Works, Spell‑Check Missing

@pangeaner No need I think. It is pretty clear to me and many others. If the wording was changed to remove the idea of "optionally" then users will think they must install them (and how many will then install "ALL" of the n-grams... "pleaase update the docs") and then when they run out of disk space, post something as though Cloudron messed up. You figured it out!; use the process to help you on your self-hosting journey.

N-grams are not used?

@girish Many thanks for the link and the example. Then n-gram is used correctly on my server!

Languagetool: Download of n-grams ignores path set in env

giofonseca — Thu, 11 May 2023 12:27:29 GMT

I would suggest adding the following to the documentation here: https://docs.cloudron.io/packages/languagetool/ If you want to use a volume to install and store ngrams there, after creating that volume[link to doc], mount it to the Language Tool application under the “Storage” menu and set it as a "read and writing" volume. Normally the volumes are reachable via /mnt/volumens/ but once mounted to an application are reachable via /media/, therefore the command you need to use for installing the ngrams will be as follows: /app/pkg/install-ngrams.sh /media/ en es and the path under /app/data/env has to be like NGRAMS_DATASET_PATH=/media/ That may help some user like me with a more step-by-step guide

languagetool needs login?

I like to have it in my own instances. So I use it in almost all forms and supported applications. I have two languages installed, German and English, and it works wonderfully. I didn't even know how many careless mistakes I make

German based LanguageTool sold to US-based learneo Inc.

@RazielKanos fair enough

languagetool connection error 405

m-si — Wed, 15 Mar 2023 07:06:13 GMT

@girish Thank you so much for the quick response...I can confirm putting in https://lt.my-domain.org/6FoL0A/v2 worked perfectly. the check is added by the firefox plugin itself... cloudron is awsome, for the software and the people...

API hangs sometimes because too much usage?

Version type

marcusquinn — Fri, 27 Jan 2023 14:22:33 GMT

@privsec It's Basic, but without the limit on the number of characters in a text field that it will check, whereas their hosted version has a limit. Most significant when using it on webmail.

java.lang.RuntimeException: Expected at least '1grams', '2grams', and '3grams' sub directories but only got [3grams] in /app/data/ngrams/en

nebulon — Fri, 27 Jan 2023 10:54:07 GMT

The latest package version does not require the manual restart anymore, but will restart the internal component automatically after the download has finished.

FYI size of n-gram data sets

necrevistonnezr — Thu, 26 Jan 2023 22:29:47 GMT

@luckow said in FYI size of n-gram data sets: EN is around 8 GB This is download size. Unpacked it takes 14.34 GB of server space for English and 3.06 GB for German. [image: 1675748543264-2834ebac-ffaf-40e4-b4b7-3584448cb671.jpeg] [image: 1675748543186-49076e70-5f1c-479f-911e-d1c717771557.jpeg]
