Hi Tom, first, let me offer my commiseration regarding the ytex failure. I think that at some point I will write the community for objections and then make it a separate build from (primary) ctakes. I think that your solution of removing ytex from the main project on your system is absolutely the correct thing to do since you don't want it anyway.
After that, I have only guesses as to what might be going on. I haven't personally had any of the build problems that you are facing. One thing that I didn't make clear: You only need to build the ctakes-dockhand.jar, not all of ctakes. But the errors you see are still troublesome (especially in docker). > [ERROR] Failed to execute goal on project dockhand-rest: Could not resolve > dependencies for project org.apache.ctakes:dockhand-rest:war:4.0.1-SNAPSHOT: > The following artifacts could not be resolved: > org.apache.ctakes:ctakes-tiny-rest:jar:4.0.1-SNAPSHOT, > org.apache.ctakes:ctakes-utils:jar:4.0.1-SNAPSHOT, > org.apache.ctakes:ctakes-relation-extractor:jar:4.0.1-SNAPSHOT, > org.apache.ctakes:ctakes-chunker:jar:4.0.1-SNAPSHOT, > org.apache.ctakes:ctakes-dictionary-lookup-fast:jar:4.0.1-SNAPSHOT, > org.apache.ctakes:ctakes-constituency-parser:jar:4.0.1-SNAPSHOT, > org.apache.ctakes:ctakes-dependency-parser:jar:4.0.1-SNAPSHOT, > org.apache.ctakes:ctakes-context-tokenizer:jar:4.0.1-SNAPSHOT: Could not find > artifact org.apache.ctakes:ctakes-tiny-rest:jar:4.0.1-SNAPSHOT -> [Help 1] I don't understand the above error at all. All of those artifacts do exist. I use them on a (practically) daily basis. Is it possible that you don't have a port open or that your docker machine is behind a firewall of some sort? There is one question that I have for you about the error >ERROR] >/Users/thomas/projects/ctakes/trunk/ctakes-tiny-rest/src/main/java/org/apache/ctakes/rest/service/TinyController.java:[28,23] > error: cannot find symbol [ERROR] symbol: class PostConstruct [ERROR] location: package javax.annotation What version of java are you using? ctakes requires version 8. javax.annotation -should- be standard in java 8. You can try running "javac -version".

On 6/26/20, 2:33 PM, "Finan, Sean" <sean.fi...@childrens.harvard.edu> wrote: Hi Tom, Tiny Rest is not really a standalone deal, but utilization is pretty simple once you know what it is for. What you can try is: Create the jar for ctakes-dockhand using "mvn package". You can put that jar file anywhere, even a system that doesn't have ctakes. Run that jar in a graphical environment (ms windows, gnome, etc.). Double-click should start it. ctakes-dockhand is an installation tool that looks pretty much like any "wizard" style installer. Make selections on each screen, click next, etc. Your selection on the first panel should be "docker rest" - or "rest docker" or something like that. I can't remember. Then give it some description, create the pipeline that you want, etc. After you finish the last panel and click "Finish" a small number of files will be created in your chosen directory. *Note, the tool will not exit by iteself. If you are familiar with docker, you can use the Dockerfile that is in that directory to create an image of a ctakes rest service. The docker image contains everything you need and when you run it will start a rest service. I haven't tried it, but you should also be able to just maven package using the pom in that same output directory without docker. It will create a war file. If you go without docker then you will need to have a web server (tomcat, etc.) and move the war file into the webapps directory or whatever is required for that server. There is a little demo page that you can launch on a browser. Just http to the ip address (of a VM, docker VM, localhost) with the port 8080 and ctakes_tiny_rest. For instance: https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__192.168.99.101-3A8080_ctakes-5Ftiny-5Frest&d=DwIGaQ&c=qS4goWBT7poplM69zy_3xhKwEW14JZMSdioCoppxeFU&r=fs67GvlGZstTpyIisCYNYmQCP6r0bcpKGd4f7d4gTao&m=pUTbexmiZnykTq7rQgTwZdj0cSAzpWfjzJzMSmD_07c&s=genox1Kxui9FMmo5ZeAVCeHiwiELuEeSO-y0RqpUYaM&e= You can curl or use some other rest client, but you should probably use the demo page just to see what it can do. To get different output formats you can send with "fhir", "umls", "cui", or "xmi". "pretty" and "property" are works in progress. The default is fhir json.
