Installation¶

Installation is as easy as typing in:

pip install notnews

For faster installation using UV:

uv add notnews

Optional Dependencies¶

For LLM-based classification with Claude and OpenAI:

pip install notnews[llm]
# or
uv add notnews --extra llm

Requirements¶

Python 3.11, 3.12, 3.13
scikit-learn 1.3+ (models trained with sklearn 0.22+ are automatically compatible)
pandas, numpy, nltk, and other standard scientific Python packages

LLM Requirements (Optional)¶

anthropic>=0.18.0 (for Claude)
openai>=1.12.0 (for OpenAI)

Compatibility¶

This package includes automatic compatibility layers to ensure models trained with older scikit-learn versions (0.22+) work seamlessly with modern scikit-learn versions (1.3-1.5). Version warnings from scikit-learn are expected and harmless.
