Installation¶

There are a couple of ways to install and use VADER sentiment:

  1. The simplest is to use the command line to do an installation from [PyPI] using pip, e.g.,

    > pip install vaderSentiment

  2. Or, you might already have VADER and simply need to upgrade to the latest version, e.g.,

    > pip install --upgrade vaderSentiment

  3. You could also clone this [GitHub repository]

  4. You could download and unzip the [full master branch zip file]

In addition to the VADER sentiment analysis Python module, options 3 or 4 will also download all the additional resources and datasets (described below).
