Using Downloads

macOS

Requirements

  • macOS 10.15 or later
  • Xcode 12 beta 2 or later

Installation

  1. Download the latest package release.

  2. Run the package installer, which will install an Xcode toolchain into /Library/Developer/Toolchains/.

  3. An Xcode toolchain (.xctoolchain) includes a copy of the compiler, lldb, and other related tools needed to provide a cohesive development experience for working in a specific version of Swift.

  4. Open Xcode's Preferences, navigate to Components > Toolchains, and select the installed Swift for TensorFlow toolchain.

  5. Xcode uses the selected toolchain for building Swift code, debugging, and even code completion and syntax coloring. You'll see a new toolchain indicator in Xcode's toolbar when Xcode is using a Swift toolchain. Select the Xcode toolchain to go back to Xcode's built-in tools.

Select toolchain in Xcode preferences.

  1. Selecting a Swift toolchain affects the Xcode IDE only. To use the Swift toolchain with command-line tools, use xcrun --toolchain swift and xcodebuild -toolchain swift, or add the Swift toolchain to your path as follows:

    $ export PATH=/Library/Developer/Toolchains/swift-latest/usr/bin:"${PATH}"

  2. CUDA-only: If you downloaded a CUDA GPU-enabled toolchain, add the library path(s) for CUDA and cuDNN to $LD_LIBRARY_PATH:

    $ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/cuda/lib:"${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}"

Linux

Packages for Linux are tar archives including a copy of the Swift compiler, lldb, and related tools. You can install them anywhere as long as the extracted tools are in your PATH. Note that nothing prevents Swift from being ported to other Linux distributions beyond the ones mentioned below. These are only the distributions where these binaries have been built and tested.

Requirements

  • Ubuntu 18.04 (64-bit)

Supported Target Platforms

  • Ubuntu 18.04 (64-bit)

Additional Requirements

  • For GPU toolchains:
    • CUDA Toolkit 10.1 or 10.2
    • CuDNN 7.6.0 onwards (CUDA 10.1)
    • An NVIDIA GPU with compute compatibility 3.5, 3.7, 6.0, 6.1, 7.0, or 7.5.

For detailed instructons on setting up CUDA and CuDNN, please see the TensorFlow Docs.

Installation

  1. Install required dependencies:
$ sudo apt-get install clang libpython-dev libblocksruntime-dev

(Note: You may also need to install other dependencies, if you are unable to run swift or other tools below.)

  1. Download the latest binary release above.

The swift-tensorflow-<VERSION>-<PLATFORM>.tar.gz file is the toolchain itself.

  1. Extract the archive with the following command:
$ tar xzf swift-tensorflow-<VERSION>-<PLATFORM>.tar.gz

This creates a usr/ directory in the location of the archive.

  1. Add the Swift toolchain to your path as follows:
$ export PATH=$(pwd)/usr/bin:"${PATH}"

You can now execute the swiftc command to build Swift projects.

Note: If you are using a CUDA build and you have an NVIDIA GPU with a compute capability other than 3.5 or 7.0, then you will experience a ~10 minute delay the first time you execute a TensorFlow operation, while TensorFlow compiles kernels for your GPU's compute capability. The program will not print anything out and it will appear to be frozen.

Windows

Requirements

  • Windows 10 October 2018 Update (RedStone 5 - 10.0.17763.0) or later1
  • Visual Studio 2017 or later (Visual Studio 2019 is recommended)
  • CMake 3.16 or later

Installation

  1. Install Visual Studio from Microsoft.

The following table lists the required set of installed components:

Component ID
MSVC v142 - VS 2019 C++ x64/x86 build tools (v14.25) Microsoft.VisualStudio.Component.VC.Tools.x86.x64
Windows Univeral C Runtime Microsoft.VisualStudio.Component.Windows10SDK
Windows 10 SDK (10.0.17763.0)2 Microsoft.VisualStudio.Component.Windows10SDK.17763

The following table lists the additional recommended set of installed components:

Component ID
C++ ATL for latest v142 build tools (x86 & x64)3 Microsoft.VisualStudio.Component.VC.ATL
C++ CMake tools for Windows4 Microsoft.VisualStudio.Component.VC.CMake.Project
Git for Windows5 Microsoft.VisualStudio.Component.Git
Python 3 64-bit (3.7.5)6 Component.CPython.x64

  1. Install CMake from cmake.

  2. Download and run the latest release from Swift for TensorFlow. The installer will install a toolchain into %SystemDrive%\Library\Developer\Toolchains. The toolchain (.xctoolchain) includes a copy of the compiler, lldb, and other related tools needed to provide a cohesive development experience for working in a specific version of Swift.

  3. Deploy the Windows SDK modulemaps from an (elevated) "Administrator" x64 Native Tools for VS2019 Command Prompt shell7:

:: NOTE: the following additional command may be required for older snapshots:
:: set SDKROOT=%SystemDrive%\Library\Developer\Platforms\Windows.platform\Developer\SDKs\Windows.sdk
copy "%SDKROOT%\usr\share\ucrt.modulemap" "%UniversalCRTSdkDir%\Include\%UCRTVersion%\ucrt\module.modulemap"
copy "%SDKROOT%\usr\share\visualc.modulemap" "%VCToolsInstallDir%\include\module.modulemap"
copy "%SDKROOT%\usr\share\visualc.apinotes" "%VCToolsInstallDir%\include\visualc.apinotes"
copy "%SDKROOT%\usr\share\winsdk.modulemap" "%UniversalCRTSdkDir%\Include\%UCRTVersion%\um\module.modulemap"

1 You can check which version of Windows you are currently running by opening command prompt and entering winver.
2 You may install a newer SDK if you desire. 17763 is listed here to match the minimum Windows release supported.
3 Needed for parts of lldb.
4 Provides ninja which is needed for building projects. You may download it from ninja-build instead.
5 Provides git to clone projects from GitHub. You may download it from git-scm instead.
6 Provides python needed for Python integration. You may download it from python instead.
7 This will need to be re-run every time Visual Studio is updated.

Google Cloud Platform

Experimental

To save on setup time, you can leverage one of the Swift for Tensorflow Deep Learning VM images to quickly spin up a pre-configured Ubuntu instance with an installed toolchain. To view the available images (currently experimental):

gcloud compute images list \
  --project deeplearning-platform-release \
  --no-standard-images | \
  grep swift

CPU Instance

To create a small CPU instance:

gcloud compute instances create s4tf-ubuntu \
  --image-project=deeplearning-platform-release \
  --image-family=swift-latest-cpu-ubuntu-1804 \
  --maintenance-policy=TERMINATE \
  --machine-type=n1-standard-2 \
  --boot-disk-size=256GB

This will create a single n1-standard-2 instance with the Swift toolchain installed. Once the instance is up, connect to it:

gcloud compute ssh s4tf-ubuntu \
  --zone ${ZONE}

GPU Instance

To create a GPU instance, the first step is to identify a zone that contains the type of GPU you'd like to use, since not all zones have availability:

export GPU_TYPE="v100"
gcloud compute accelerator-types list | grep ${GPU_TYPE}

Using these results, set your zone:

export ZONE="us-west1-b"

To create an instance with an attached V100 GPU:

gcloud compute instances create s4tf-ubuntu-${GPU_TYPE} \
  --zone=${ZONE} \
  --image-project=deeplearning-platform-release \
  --image-family=swift-latest-gpu-ubuntu-1804 \
  --maintenance-policy=TERMINATE \
  --accelerator="type=nvidia-tesla-${GPU_TYPE},count=1" \
  --metadata="install-nvidia-driver=True" \
  --machine-type=n1-highmem-2 \
  --boot-disk-size=256GB

This will create a single n1-highmem-2 instance with an attached accelerator and the Swift toolchain installed with all CUDA libraries.

Note: If this command fails due to lack of quota, you will need to find a zone with available quota or request an increase. Using the search feature in the Quotas section of the GCP Console, you can view your current usage and submit an increase request (e.g. search for "V100" or the value you used in $GPU_TYPE).

Once the instance is up, connect to it:

gcloud compute ssh s4tf-ubuntu-${GPU_TYPE} \
  --zone ${ZONE}

Verify the Installation

Create a text file test.swift with the following contents:

import TensorFlow
var x = Tensor<Float>([[1, 2], [3, 4]])
print(x + x)

Run swift-models

git clone https://github.com/tensorflow/swift-models.git
cd swift-models
swift run

Swift will print an error with a list of executable names that exercise different models. Issue swift run executable-name to select the model you're interested in.

To build on Linux/MacOS

Run these commands to verify the installation.

$ swiftc test.swift
$ test

To build on Windows

Run these commands to verify the installation.

$ set SDKROOT=%SystemDrive%/Library/Developer/Platforms/Windows.platform/Developer/SDKs/Windows.sdk
$ swiftc -sdk %SDKROOT% -I %SDKROOT%/usr/lib/swift -L %SDKROOT%/usr/lib/swift/windows -emit-executable -o test.exe test.swift
$ test.exe

N.B. Interpreter mode and direct invocation from VS 2019 are currently not supported on Windows.

Verify Output

If you see this output, you have successfully installed Swift for TensorFlow!
