Project Modules

There are no modules declared in this project.

LensKit

Deprecation Notice: The Java implementation of LensKit is now deprecated. For new projects, use the Python version.

LensKit is an implementation of collaborative filtering algorithms and a set of tools for benchmarking them. This readme is about working with the LensKit source code. For more information about LensKit and its documentation, visit the web site or wiki. You can also find information on the wiki about how to use LensKit without downloading the source code. If this is your first time working with LensKit we recommend checking out the Getting Started guide.

LensKit is made available under the MIT license; see LICENSE.md.

Installation and Dependency Management

LensKit is built and deployed with Gradle and publishes its artifacts to Maven Central. To install it to the local Maven repository, making it available to other projects using standard Java-based tools, check out this repository and run ./gradlew install; it is then available to other projects by depending directly on it in your Maven, Gradle, Ivy, or SBT project. The source code can also be checked out and used in most Java IDEs.

Working with the Code

To work with the LensKit code, import the Gradle project into your IDE. Most modern Java IDEs include support for Gradle, including IntelliJ IDEA (used by most LensKit developers), Eclipse, and NetBeans.

No other particular setup is needed.

Modules

LensKit is comprised of several modules. The top-level lenskit module serves as a container to build them and provide common settings and dependencies. The other modules are as follows:

• lenskit-api -- the common, public recommender API exposed by LensKit, independent of its actual implementations.
• lenskit-test -- infrastructure and helper code for testing.
• lenskit-core -- the core support code and configuration facilities for the rest of LensKit. It is the entry point for most of what you want to do with LensKit, providing support for configuring and building recommenders.
• lenskit-knn -- k-NN recommenders (user-user and item-item collaborative filtering).
• lenskit-svd -- the FunkSVD recommender (and eventually real SVD recommenders).
• lenskit-slopeone -- Slope-One recommenders.
• lenskit-eval -- the evaluation framework and APIs, along with a command line evaluation runner.
• lenskit-groovy -- support for reading LensKit configurations from Groovy files.
• lenskit-all -- a metapackage you can depend on to pull in the rest of the LensKit packages.
• lenskit-cli -- the LensKit command line interface.
• lenskit-gradle -- the Gradle plugin to script the LensKit evaluator
• lenskit-integration-tests -- additional integration tests for LensKit.

Running the Tests

After you make changes, it's good to run the unit tests. You can run many of them from your IDE; run all tests in the org.grouplens.lenskit package (and subpackages) across all modules.

To run the full test suite, including data-driven unit tests and integration tests, use Gradle:

$ ./gradlew check
