Installing Avalanche has Never Been so Simple
Avalanche has been designed for extreme portability and usability. Indeed, it can be run on every OS and native python environment. 💻🍎🐧
you can install Avalanche with pip:
This will install the core version of Avalanche, without extra packages (e.g., object detection support, reinforcement learning support). To install all the extra packages run:
You can install also specific extra packages by specifying the appropriate code name within the square brackets. This is the complete list of options:
Avalanche will raise an error if you need one extra package and will suggest the appropriate package to install.
Note that in some alternatives to bash like zsh you may need to enclose `avalanche-lib[code]` into quotation marks ( " " ), since square brackets are used as special characters.
If you want, you can install Avalanche directly from the master branch (latest version) in a single command. Make sure to have pytorch already installed in your environment, then execute
To update avalanche to the latest version, uninstall the package with pip uninstall avalanche-lib
and then execute again the pip install command.
We suggest you to use the pip package, but if you need some recent features you may want to install directly from the master branch. In general, the master branch is well tested and safe to use. However, the API of new features may change more frequently or break backward compatibility. Reproducibility is also easier if you use the pip package.
On Linux, alternatively, you can simply run the install_environment.sh
in the Avalanche home directory. The script takes 2 arguments: --python
and --cuda_version
. Check --help
for details.
You can test your installation by running the examples/test_install.py
script. Make sure to include avalanche into your $PYTHONPATH if you are running examples with the command line interface.
If you want to expand Avalanche and help us improve it (see the "From Zero to Hero" Tutorial). In this case we suggest to create an environment in developer-mode as follows (just a couple of more dependencies will be installed).
Assuming you have Anaconda (or Miniconda) installed on your system, you can follow these simple steps:
Install the avalanche-dev-env
environment and activate it.
Install Pytorch + TorchVision (follow the instructions on the website to use conda).
Update the Conda Environment.
These three steps can be accomplished with the following lines of code:
On Linux, alternatively, you can simply run the install_environment_dev.sh
in the Avalanche home directory. The script takes 2 arguments: --python
and --cuda_version
. Check --help
for details.
You can test your installation by running the examples/test_install.py
script. Make sure to include avalanche into your $PYTHONPATH if you are running examples with the command line interface.
That's it. now we have Avalanche up and running and we can start contribute to it!
You can run this chapter and play with it on Google Colaboratory:
