If you want to install Pytorch manually, you can refer to PyTorch Installation.

If your OS is Windows, please do confirm that SWIG is installed and available through the OS environment variable PATH, you can refer to SWIG installation.

Tip

If you encounter timeout in downloading packages, you can try to request from other site.

pip install requests -i https://mirrors.aliyun.com/pypi/simple/ DI-engine

conda install -c opendilab di-engine

git clone https://github.com/opendilab/DI-engine.git
cd DI-engine
pip install .

Tip

If you hope to install DI-engine into local user directories, you can do as the following:

pip install . --user

Be careful that if you are using virtual python environment created by softwares, such as virtualenv, then the option --user may not work. Please ignore this tip.

# install atari and box-2d related packages
pip install DI-engine[common_env]
# install unittest(pytest) related packages
pip install DI-engine[test]
# enable numba acceleration
pip install DI-engine[fast]
# install multi extra packages
pip install DI-engine[common_env,test,fast]
