CUDA Python is supported on all platforms that CUDA is supported. Specific dependencies are as follows:
- Driver: Linux (450.80.02 or later) Windows (456.38 or later)
- CUDA Toolkit 12.0 to 12.1
- Python 3.8 to 3.11
pip install cuda-python
conda install -c nvidia cuda-python
Installing from source requires the latest CUDA Toolkit (CTK), matching the major.minor of CUDA Python. The installed package will still be compatible with all minor CTK versions.
Environment variable CUDA_HOME must be set to CTK root directory:
export CUDA_HOME=/usr/local/cuda
Remaining build and test dependencies are outlined in requirements.txt
To compile the extension in-place, run:
python setup.py build_ext --inplace
To compile for debugging the extension modules with gdb, pass the --debug
argument to setup.py.
You can use
pip install -e .
to install the module as editible in your current Python environment (e.g. for testing of porting other libraries to use the binding).
conda env create -f docs_src/environment-docs.yml
conda activate cuda-python-docs
Then compile and install cuda-python following the steps above.
cd docs_src
make html
open build/html/index.html
git checkout gh-pages
cd docs_src
make html
cp -a build/html/. ../docs/
