Stanford Parser and NLTK

Question

Is it possible to use Stanford Parser in NLTK? (I am not talking about Stanford POS.)

Answer 1

Note that this answer applies to NLTK v 3.0, and not to more recent versions.

A slight update (or simply alternative) on danger89's comprehensive answer on using Stanford Parser in NLTK and Python

With stanford-parser-full-2015-04-20, JRE 1.8 and nltk 3.0.4 (python 2.7.6), it appears that you no longer need to extract the englishPCFG.ser.gz from stanford-parser-x.x.x-models.jar or setting up any os.environ

from nltk.parse.stanford import StanfordParser

english_parser = StanfordParser('path/stanford-parser.jar', 'path/stanford-parser-3.5.2-models.jar')

s = "The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes."

sentences = english_parser.raw_parse_sents((s,))
print sentences #only print  for this version

#draw the tree
for line in sentences:
    for sentence in line:
        sentence.draw()
