⚙️ Installation Instructions

Install only the feature set you need:

pip install araras
pip install araras[tensorflow]
pip install araras[torch]
pip install araras[viz]
pip install araras[notebook]
pip install araras[gnn]
pip install araras[all]

Notes:

• The base install is lightweight and excludes heavyweight ML backends.
• TensorFlow support is enabled via the tensorflow extra.
• PyTorch support is enabled via the torch extra.
• Visualization and notebook extras are optional and independent.

🐧 Linux GPU Venv Setup (TensorFlow + Torch)

For Linux users with an NVIDIA GPU, this repository includes an installer script at venvs/tf-gpu.sh that creates and configures a virtual environment with:

• TensorFlow (tensorflow[and-cuda])
• PyTorch (torch, torchinfo, torchviz)
• Optuna and common ML/data-science utilities
• araras[all]

The script also verifies CPU and GPU TensorFlow availability at the end.

Run it from the repository root:

chmod +x venvs/tf-gpu.sh
./venvs/tf-gpu.sh

Important notes:

• Linux only (script uses apt and nvidia-smi).
• You will be prompted for the virtual environment name and location.
• A supported NVIDIA driver is required (the script checks this automatically).
• The script uses python3.12 by default.

🚀 Release Flow

Maintainer quick path:

python -m build
twine check dist/*
git tag v1.0.0
git push origin v1.0.0

Tag pushes matching v* trigger the publish workflow.

🔖 Versioning Policy

• The value in pyproject.toml project.version must match the Git tag version.
• Release order: bump version, merge to main, tag as v, push tag.
• PyPI versions are immutable and cannot be re-used.
