Installation

Before you start, make sure that you already have installed Python 3.5, pip and git.

Create and activate a virtual environment to install the package into:

$ python3 -m venv nm
$ source nm/bin/activate
# after this, your prompt should change

Then clone Neural Monkey from GitHub and switch to its root directory:

(nm)$ git clone https://github.com/ufal/neuralmonkey
(nm)$ cd neuralmonkey

Run pip to install all requirements. For the CPU version install dependencies by this command:

(nm)$ pip install --upgrade -r requirements.txt

For the GPU version install dependencies try this command:

(nm)$ pip install --upgrade -r requirements-gpu.txt

If you are using the GPU version, make sure that the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable points to lib and lib64 directories of your CUDA and CuDNN installations. Similarly, your PATH variable should point to the bin subdirectory of the CUDA installation directory.

You made it! Neural Monkey is now installed!
