Setup grafzahl

Install a self-contained miniconda environment with all Python components (PyTorch, Transformers, Simpletransformers, etc) which grafzahl required. The default location is "~/.local/share/r-miniconda/envs/grafzahl_condaenv" (suffix "_cuda" is added if cuda is TRUE). On Linux or Mac and if miniconda is not found, this function will also install miniconda. The path can be changed by the environment variable GRAFZAHL_MINICONDA_PATH

Usage

setup_grafzahl(cuda = FALSE, force = FALSE, cuda_version = "11.3")

Arguments

cuda

logical, if TRUE, indicate whether a CUDA-enabled environment is wanted.

force

logical, if TRUE, delete previous environment (if exists) and create a new environment

cuda_version

character, indicate CUDA version, ignore if cuda is FALSE

Value

TRUE (invisibly) if installation is successful.

Examples

# setup an environment with cuda enabled.
if (detect_conda() && interactive()) {
    setup_grafzahl(cuda = TRUE)
}
