simple bash script for downloading the Google word2vec model (https://code.google.com/archive/p/word2vec/) from Google-Drive

word2vec-download300model.sh

#!/bin/bash

# usage: 
# first make the file executable
# ./word2vec-download300model.sh output-file

OUTPUT=$( wget --save-cookies cookies.txt --keep-session-cookies --no-check-certificate 'https://docs.google.com/uc?export=download&id=0B7XkCwpI5KDYNlNUTTlSS21pQmM' -O- | sed -rn 's/.*confirm=([0-9A-Za-z_]+).*/Code: \1\n/p' )
CODE=${OUTPUT##*Code: }
echo $CODE

F='GoogleNews-vectors-negative300.bin.gz'
if [ -z "$1" ]
        then
                OUT_F=$F
        else
                OUT_F=$1/$F
fi
echo $OUT_F

wget --load-cookies cookies.txt 'https://docs.google.com/uc?export=download&confirm='$CODE'&id=0B7XkCwpI5KDYNlNUTTlSS21pQmM' -O $OUT_F

I copied-past the first command, i.e the one that assigns a value to 'OUTPUT'. But I am getting a sed error message

sed: illegal option -- r
usage: sed script [-Ealn] [-i extension] [file ...]
       sed [-Ealn] [-i extension] [-e script] ... [-f script_file] ... [file ...]

Cannot write to ‘-’ (Success).

Because of this, the variable 'CODE' is empty.

Hey,
This script is supposed to be download and use a bash script. The input for it should be the directory where you want it to get downloaded.
It seems like you just executed line by line, and this why you haven't configured the relevant directory

Hello Can you add a line how to execute the command using bash and where to give the folder to the script?

Just added it to the file.
./word2vec-download300model.sh output-file
