Feels like it's written by ML people not following python software engineering practices. No black, UV or ruff. Prints messages with emojis to stdout by default. Makes a connection to hugging face on every import. https://github.com/fastino-ai/GLiNER2/pull/74

GLiNER is a really great research work. But putting this kind of things in production is just another job. Not trying to do self promotion here, but there are alternatives for this purpose, like gline-rs ( https://github.com/fbilhaut/gline-rs ). Support of GLiNER 2 models is on the way.

Any chance you could wrap this in pyo3? There is a large python market for this.

There is another version at: https://github.com/urchade/GLiNER Looks like it’s still being maintained too?

Use Gliner2. Much better model.

Okay but there is a dependency on gliner1:

Zero-shot encoder models are so cool. I'll definitely be checking this out. If you're looking for a zero-shot classifier, tasksource is in a similar vein. https://huggingface.co/tasksource/ModernBERT-large-nli

gliner2 does classification as well as entities and relationships

GLiNER2 is an upgrade that allows for relationship extraction and classification, built on GLiNER, and added additional research / papers, then trained a new model.

Sounds like a great model which is hobbled by a bunch of mundane python programming issues that researchers don't want to deal with. If there is sufficient interest, I can look into maintaining a new wrapper.
