Rasa NLU not installed with Rasa, separate installation causes problems

Getting Started with Rasa

I’m quite confused with all the different parts of this: Rasa, Rasa-X, Rasa-NLU, Rasa-SDK. You have a line of code in your Installation guide to install both Rasa and and Rasa X:

$ pip3 install rasa-x --extra-index-url https://pypi.rasa.com/simple

But this doesn’t install the NLU and there’s no guide for installing the NLU anywhere I’ve checked on your site. You talk about NLU dependencies but not about installing NLU.

The problem is that when I install rasa-nlu separately, I get errors: apparently rasa and rasa-nlu require different versions of 3 packages and when I install rasa-nlu later, pip uninstalls new versions and reinstalls old versions of these packages, which then will no longer be what rasa requires.

Rasa NLU is included in the Rasa package. So once you execute

$ pip3 install rasa-x --extra-index-url https://pypi.rasa.com/simple

you should be all set.

What exactly do you want to do?

Right, I figured out this one already, I just followed an old video at first where things work differently. I should have deleted this post.
