Installing from a specific commit
---------------------------------
You can install the Ray wheels of any particular commit on ``master`` with the following template. You need to specify the commit hash, Ray version, Operating System, and Python version:
.. code-block:: bash
pip install https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/ray-wheels/master/{COMMIT_HASH}/ray-{RAY_VERSION}-{PYTHON_VERSION}-{PYTHON_VERSION}m-{OS_VERSION}.whl
For example, here are the Ray 2.0.0.dev0 wheels for Python 3.7, MacOS for commit ``ba6cebe30fab6925e5b2d9e859ad064d53015246``:
.. code-block:: bash
pip install https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/ray-wheels/master/ba6cebe30fab6925e5b2d9e859ad064d53015246/ray-2.0.0.dev0-cp37-cp37m-macosx_10_15_intel.whl
There are minor variations to the format of the wheel filename; it's best to match against the format in the URLs listed in the :ref:`Nightlies section <install-nightlies>`.
Here's a summary of the variations:
* For Python 3.8 and 3.9, the ``m`` before the OS version should be deleted and the OS version for MacOS should read ``macosx_10_15_x86_64`` instead of ``macosx_10_15_intel``.
* For MacOS, commits predating August 7, 2021 will have ``macosx_10_13`` in the filename instad of ``macosx_10_15``.
.. _ray-install-java:
Install Ray Java with Maven
---------------------------
Before installing Ray Java with Maven, you should install Ray Python with `pip install -U ray` . Note that the versions of Ray Java and Ray Python must match.
Note that nightly Ray python wheels are also required if you want to install Ray Java snapshot version.
The latest Ray Java release can be found in `central repository <https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/io.ray>`__. To use the latest Ray Java release in your application, add the following entries in your ``pom.xml``:
.. code-block:: xml
<dependency>
<groupId>io.ray</groupId>
<artifactId>ray-api</artifactId>
<version>${ray.version}</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>io.ray</groupId>
<artifactId>ray-runtime</artifactId>
<version>${ray.version}</version>
</dependency>
The latest Ray Java snapshot can be found in `sonatype repository <https://oss.sonatype.org/#nexus-search;quick~io.ray>`__. To use the latest Ray Java snapshot in your application, add the following entries in your ``pom.xml``:
.. code-block:: xml
<!-- only needed for snapshot version of ray -->
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>sonatype</id>
<url>https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots/</url>
<releases>
<enabled>false</enabled>
</releases>
<snapshots>
<enabled>true</enabled>
</snapshots>
</repository>
</repositories>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>io.ray</groupId>
<artifactId>ray-api</artifactId>
<version>${ray.version}</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>io.ray</groupId>
<artifactId>ray-runtime</artifactId>
<version>${ray.version}</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
.. note::
When you run ``pip install`` to install Ray, Java jars are installed as well. The above dependencies are only used to build your Java code and to run your code in local mode.
If you want to run your Java code in a multi-node Ray cluster, it's better to exclude Ray jars when packaging your code to avoid jar conficts if the versions (installed Ray with ``pip install`` and maven dependencies) don't match.
.. _windows-support:
Windows Support
---------------
Windows support is currently limited and "alpha" quality.
Bugs, process/resource leaks, or other incompatibilities may exist under various scenarios.
Unusual, unattended, or production usage is **not** recommended.
To use Ray on Windows, the Visual C++ runtime must be installed (see :ref:`Windows Dependencies <windows-dependencies>` section).
If you encounter any issues, please try the following:
- Check the `Windows Known Issues <https://github.com/ray-project/ray/issues/9114>`_ page on GitHub to see the latest updates on Windows support.
- In the case that your issue has been addressed, try installing the :ref:`latest nightly wheels <install-nightlies>`.
If your issue has not yet been addressed, comment on the `Windows Known Issues <https://github.com/ray-project/ray/issues/9114>`_ page.
.. _windows-dependencies:
Windows Dependencies
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
For Windows, ensure the latest `Visual C++ runtime`_ (`install link`_) is installed before using Ray.
Otherwise, you may receive an error similar to the following when Ray fails to find
the runtime library files (e.g. ``VCRUNTIME140_1.dll``):
.. code-block:: bash
FileNotFoundError: Could not find module '_raylet.pyd' (or one of its dependencies).
.. _`Visual C++ Runtime`: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads
.. _`install link`: https://aka.ms/vs/16/release/vc_redist.x64.exe
Installing Ray on Arch Linux
----------------------------
Note: Installing Ray on Arch Linux is not tested by the Project Ray developers.
Ray is available on Arch Linux via the Arch User Repository (`AUR`_) as
``python-ray``.
You can manually install the package by following the instructions on the
`Arch Wiki`_ or use an `AUR helper`_ like `yay`_ (recommended for ease of install)
as follows:
.. code-block:: bash
yay -S python-ray
To discuss any issues related to this package refer to the comments section
on the AUR page of ``python-ray`` `here`_.
.. _`AUR`: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository
.. _`Arch Wiki`: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository#Installing_packages
.. _`AUR helper`: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository#Installing_packages
.. _`yay`: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/yay
.. _`here`: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python-ray
.. _ray_anaconda:
Installing Ray with Anaconda
----------------------------
If you use `Anaconda`_ (`installation instructions`_) and want to use Ray in a defined environment, e.g, ``ray``, use these commands:
.. code-block:: bash
conda create --name ray
conda activate ray
conda install --name ray pip
pip install ray
Use ``pip list`` to confirm that ``ray`` is installed.
.. _`Anaconda`: https://www.anaconda.com/
.. _`installation instructions`: https://docs.anaconda.com/anaconda/install/index.html
Building Ray from Source
------------------------
Installing from ``pip`` should be sufficient for most Ray users.
However, should you need to build from source, follow :ref:`these instructions for building <building-ray>` Ray.
.. _docker-images:
Docker Source Images
--------------------
Most users should pull a Docker image from the `Ray Docker Hub. <https://hub.docker.com/r/rayproject/>`_
- The ``rayproject/ray`` `image has ray and all required dependencies. It comes with anaconda and Python 3.7. <https://hub.docker.com/r/rayproject/ray>`_
- The ``rayproject/ray-ml`` `image has the above features as well as many additional libraries. <https://hub.docker.com/r/rayproject/ray-ml>`_
- The ``rayproject/base-deps`` and ``rayproject/ray-deps`` are for the linux and python dependencies respectively.
Image releases are `tagged` using the following format:
.. list-table::
:widths: 25 50
:header-rows: 1
* - Tag
- Description
* - latest
- The most recent Ray release.
* - 1.x.x
- A specific Ray release.
* - nightly
- The most recent Ray build (the most recent commit on Github ``master``)
* - Git SHA
- A specific nightly build (uses a SHA from the Github ``master``).
Each tag has `variants` that add or change functionality:
.. list-table::
:widths: 16 40
:header-rows: 1
* - Variant
- Description
* - -gpu
- These are based off of an NVIDIA CUDA image. They require the Nvidia Docker Runtime.
* - -cpu
- These are based off of an Ubuntu image.
* - <no tag>
- Aliases to ``-cpu`` tagged images
If you want to tweak some aspect of these images and build them locally, refer to the following script:
.. code-block:: bash
cd ray
./build-docker.sh
Beyond creating the above Docker images, this script can also produce the following two images.
- The ``rayproject/development`` image has the ray source code included and is setup for development.
- The ``rayproject/examples`` image adds additional libraries for running examples.
Review images by listing them:
.. code-block:: bash
docker images
Output should look something like the following:
.. code-block:: bash
REPOSITORY TAG IMAGE ID CREATED SIZE
rayproject/ray latest 7243a11ac068 2 days ago 1.11 GB
rayproject/ray-deps latest b6b39d979d73 8 days ago 996 MB
rayproject/base-deps latest 5606591eeab9 8 days ago 512 MB
ubuntu focal 1e4467b07108 3 weeks ago 73.9 MB
Launch Ray in Docker
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Start out by launching the deployment container.
.. code-block:: bash
docker run --shm-size=<shm-size> -t -i rayproject/ray
Replace ``<shm-size>`` with a limit appropriate for your system, for example
``512M`` or ``2G``. A good estimate for this is to use roughly 30% of your available memory (this is
what Ray uses internally for its Object Store). The ``-t`` and ``-i`` options here are required to support
interactive use of the container.
If you use a GPU version Docker image, remember to add ``--gpus all`` option. Replace ``<ray-version>`` with your target ray version in the following command:
.. code-block:: bash
docker run --shm-size=<shm-size> -t -i --gpus all rayproject/ray:<ray-version>-gpu
**Note:** Ray requires a **large** amount of shared memory because each object
store keeps all of its objects in shared memory, so the amount of shared memory
will limit the size of the object store.
You should now see a prompt that looks something like:
.. code-block:: bash
root@ebc78f68d100:/ray#
Test if the installation succeeded
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To test if the installation was successful, try running some tests. This assumes
that you've cloned the git repository.
.. code-block:: bash
python -m pytest -v python/ray/tests/test_mini.py
Troubleshooting
---------------
If importing Ray (``python3 -c "import ray"``) in your development clone results
in this error:
.. code-block:: python
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
File ".../ray/python/ray/__init__.py", line 63, in <module>
import ray._raylet # noqa: E402
File "python/ray/_raylet.pyx", line 98, in init ray._raylet
import ray.memory_monitor as memory_monitor
File ".../ray/python/ray/memory_monitor.py", line 9, in <module>
import psutil # noqa E402
File ".../ray/python/ray/thirdparty_files/psutil/__init__.py", line 159, in <module>

ImportError: cannot import name '_psutil_osx' from partially initialized module 'psutil' (most likely due to a circular import) (.../ray/python/ray/thirdparty_files/psutil/__init__.py)
Then you should run the following commands:
.. code-block:: bash
rm -rf python/ray/thirdparty_files/
python3 -m pip install setproctitle
