HELP!! python -m unidic download in Alteryx

[yoshimurayasuo]

Based on the below link, I'm trying to download a dictionary called unidic within Python tool in Alteryx but have no idea how to code. Does anyone have any idea and help me with this? 

I have successfully installed the library by coding " Alteryx.installPackage(package="unidic")" but do not know how to download the dictionary. 

https://pypi.org/project/unidic/

python -m unidic download

HI @yoshimurayasuo 

May i suggest you try unidic lite?
https://github.com/polm/unidic-lite

This doesn't require any additional downloads (or so it says in the description), and should work the same.

if that doesn't work give me a shout, and i'll have a further look!

Cheers,

Hi @TheOC

Thanks for responding so quickly.

I tried unidic-lite as you suggested but still couldn't get it working.

Attached below is my coding along with the error generated. Please let me know what I am doing wrong. This alteryx environment is really frustrating sometimes. Probably not something a beginner like me should be using...

Appreciate your help!
