## Latest News

- Version 0.5.0 is out!
  - First class support for eager execution. The deprecated APIs are moved to `oneflow.compatible.single_client`
  - Drop-in replacement of `import torch` for existing Pytorch projects. You could test it by inter-changing `import oneflow as torch` and `import torch as flow`.
  - [Full changelog](https://github.com/Oneflow-Inc/oneflow/releases/tag/v0.5.0)

## Install OneFlow

### System Requirements

- Python 3.6, 3.7, 3.8, 3.9
- (**Highly recommended**) Upgrade pip

  ```
  python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip #--user
  ```

- CUDA Toolkit Linux x86_64 Driver

  - CUDA runtime is statically linked into OneFlow. OneFlow will work on a minimum supported driver, and any driver beyond. For more information, please refer to [CUDA compatibility documentation](https://docs.nvidia.com/deploy/cuda-compatibility/index.html).

  - Please upgrade your Nvidia driver to version 440.33 or above and install OneFlow for CUDA 10.2 if possible.

### Install with Pip Package

- To install latest stable release of OneFlow with CUDA support:

  ```bash
  python3 -m pip install -f https://release.oneflow.info oneflow==0.5.0+cu102
  ```

- To install nightly release of OneFlow with CUDA support:

  ```bash
  python3 -m pip install oneflow -f https://staging.oneflow.info/branch/master/cu102
  ```

- To install other available builds for different variants:

  - Stable
    ```bash
    python3 -m pip install --find-links https://release.oneflow.info oneflow==0.5.0+[PLATFORM]
    ```
  - Nightly
    ```
    python3 -m pip install oneflow -f https://staging.oneflow.info/branch/master/[PLATFORM]
    ```
  - All available `[PLATFORM]`:
    | Platform |CUDA Driver Version| Supported GPUs |
    |---|---|---|
    | cu112 | >= 450.80.02 | GTX 10xx, RTX 20xx, A100, RTX 30xx |
    | cu111 | >= 450.80.02 | GTX 10xx, RTX 20xx, A100, RTX 30xx |
    | cu110, cu110_xla | >= 450.36.06 | GTX 10xx, RTX 20xx, A100|

    | cu101, cu101_xla | >= 418.39 | GTX 10xx, RTX 20xx |
    | cu100, cu100_xla | >= 410.48 | GTX 10xx, RTX 20xx |
    | cpu | N/A | N/A |

- If you are in China, you could run this to have pip download packages from domestic mirror of pypi:
  ```
  python3 -m pip config set global.index-url https://pypi.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn/simple
  ```
  For more information on this, please refer to [pypi 镜像使用帮助](https://mirror.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn/help/pypi/)

### Use docker image

```
docker pull oneflowinc/oneflow:nightly-cuda10.2
docker pull oneflowinc/oneflow:nightly-cuda11.1
```

### Build from Source

<details>
<summary>Clone Source Code</summary>

- #### Option 1: Clone source code from GitHub

  ```bash
  git clone https://github.com/Oneflow-Inc/oneflow --depth=1
  ```

- #### Option 2: Download from Aliyun

  If you are in China, please download OneFlow source code from: https://oneflow-public.oss-cn-beijing.aliyuncs.com/oneflow-src.zip

  ```bash
  curl https://oneflow-public.oss-cn-beijing.aliyuncs.com/oneflow-src.zip -o oneflow-src.zip
  unzip oneflow-src.zip
  ```

  </details>

<details>
<summary>Build OneFlow</summary>

- #### Option 1: Build with Conda (recommended)

  Please refer to [this repo](https://github.com/Oneflow-Inc/conda-env)

- #### Option 2: Build in docker container (recommended)

  - Pull a docker image:

    ```
    docker pull oneflowinc/oneflow-manylinux2014-cuda10.2:0.1
    ```

    All images available : https://hub.docker.com/u/oneflowinc

  - In the root directory of OneFlow source code, run:

    ```
    python3 docker/package/manylinux/build_wheel.py --inplace --python_version=3.6
    ```

    This should produce `.whl` files in the directory `wheelhouse`

  - If you are in China, you might need to add these flags:

    ```
    --use_tuna --use_system_proxy --use_aliyun_mirror
    ```

  - You can choose CUDA/Python versions of wheel by adding:

    ```
    --cuda_version=10.1 --python_version=3.6,3.7
    ```

  - For more useful flags, plese run the script with flag `--help` or refer to the source code of the script.

- #### Option 3: Build on bare metal

  - Install dependencies
    - on Ubuntu 20.04, run:
      ```
      sudo apt install -y libopenblas-dev nasm g++ gcc python3-pip cmake autoconf libtool
      ```
    - on macOS, run:
      ```
      brew install nasm
      ```
  - In the root directory of OneFlow source code, run:

    ```
    mkdir build
    cd build
    ```

  - Config the project, inside `build` directory:

    - If you are in China

      run this to config for CUDA:

      ```
      cmake .. -C ../cmake/caches/cn/cuda.cmake
      ```

      run this to config for CPU-only:

      ```
      cmake .. -C ../cmake/caches/cn/cpu.cmake
      ```

    - If you are not in China

      run this to config for CUDA:

      ```
      cmake .. -C ../cmake/caches/international/cuda.cmake
      ```

      run this to config for CPU-only:

      ```
      cmake .. -C ../cmake/caches/international/cpu.cmake
      ```

  - Build the project, inside `build` directory, run:

    ```
    make -j$(nproc)
    ```

  - Add oneflow to your PYTHONPATH, inside `build` directory, run:

    ```
    source source.sh
    ```

    Please note that this change is not permanent.

  - Simple validation

    ```
    python3 -m oneflow --doctor
    ```
