character; language models to be installed. Defaults
en_core_web_sm (English model). A vector of multiple model names can
be used (e.g. c("en_core_web_sm", "de_core_news_sm")). A list of
available language models and their
names is available from the spaCy language models page.
logical; ask whether to proceed during the installation. By default, questions are only asked in interactive sessions.
ignore if spaCy/the lang_models is already present and install it anyway.

The function checks whether a suitable installation of Python is
present on the system and installs one via
reticulate::install_python() otherwise. It then creates a
virtual environment with the necessary packages in the default location
chosen by reticulate::virtualenv_root().
If you want to install a different version of Python than the default, you
should call reticulate::install_python() directly. If you want
to create or use a different virtual environment, you can use, e.g.,
Sys.setenv(SPACY_PYTHON = "path/to/directory").
