Installation

$ pip install bluebild-tools --upgrade

Usage

Check whether CuPy can be used

from bluebild_tools import cupy as bbt_cupy
use_cupy = bbt_cupy.is_cupy_usable()

You can set the MUST_CUPY environment variable to influence the behavior of the function:

• With MUST_CUPY unset or set to 0, the use_cupy boolean variable will be set to False if CuPy can't be used and set to True if CuPy can be used.
• With MUST_CUPY set to 1, the process will be killed if CuPy is not usable.
• With MUST_CUPY set to 0, no attempt will be made to use CuPy (i.e. use_cupy will be set to False, always).

Note

If CuPy is found unusable, the following environment variables are automatically set to 0:

• CUPY_PYFFS
• CUPY_PYLOPS

That way, the pyFFS (https://github.com/imagingofthings/pyFFS) and PyLops (https://github.com/PyLops/pylops) packages can be imported with CuPy support disabled.
