Requirements and Installation

Most packages will be installed via requirements.txt. Newspaper requires some additional system packages and installation is covered here
It is a good idea to install everythin within a virtual evironment. virtualenv is easy to use.
After installing the needed packages with apt and activating your virtual environment run pip install -r requirements.txt

Note for newspaper
You must install nltk package punkt to use nlp. Below I create a shared directory but you can use the default which in inside home. I hate the clutter. If you use share you must either run python as sudo or chown the directory to yourself. nltk Documentation

(env)~$ mkdir /usr/share/nltk_data
(env)~$ python
>>>> import nltk
>>>> nltk.download()
