Installation

Requirements:

If you encounter any problem with installation, you may want to raise an issue in this repository.

Install from PyPI

You can easily install Colossal-AI with the following command. By default, we do not build PyTorch extensions during installation.

pip install colossalai

Note: only Linux is supported for now.

However, if you want to build the PyTorch extensions during installation, you can set CUDA_EXT=1.

CUDA_EXT=1 pip install colossalai

Otherwise, CUDA kernels will be built during runtime when you actually need them.

We also keep releasing the nightly version to PyPI every week. This allows you to access the unreleased features and bug fixes in the main branch. Installation can be made via

pip install colossalai-nightly

Download From Source

The version of Colossal-AI will be in line with the main branch of the repository. Feel free to raise an issue if you encounter any problems. :)

git clone https://github.com/hpcaitech/ColossalAI.git
cd ColossalAI

# install colossalai
pip install .

By default, we do not compile CUDA/C++ kernels. ColossalAI will build them during runtime. If you want to install and enable CUDA kernel fusion (compulsory installation when using fused optimizer):

CUDA_EXT=1 pip install .

For Users with CUDA 10.2, you can still build ColossalAI from source. However, you need to manually download the cub library and copy it to the corresponding directory.

# clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/hpcaitech/ColossalAI.git
cd ColossalAI

# download the cub library
wget https://github.com/NVIDIA/cub/archive/refs/tags/1.8.0.zip
unzip 1.8.0.zip
cp -r cub-1.8.0/cub/ colossalai/kernel/cuda_native/csrc/kernels/include/

# install
CUDA_EXT=1 pip install .

Use Docker

Pull from DockerHub

You can directly pull the docker image from our DockerHub page. The image is automatically uploaded upon release.

Build On Your Own

Run the following command to build a docker image from Dockerfile provided.

Building Colossal-AI from scratch requires GPU support, you need to use Nvidia Docker Runtime as the default when doing docker build. More details can be found here. We recommend you install Colossal-AI from our project page directly.

cd ColossalAI
docker build -t colossalai ./docker

Run the following command to start the docker container in interactive mode.

docker run -ti --gpus all --rm --ipc=host colossalai bash
