Project description
Larch v6
This repository contains the under-development next generation of the Larch package, for estimating and applying discrete choice models. Version 6 is a substantial rewrite of the package, changing to a platform that allows swapping out the underlying computational engine, so that the same model can run in numba or JAX.
:warning: This is a work in progress. A lot of things are working, but not everything. The interface is quite similar to Larch v5 and existing users will likely find it familiar. If you want to try it out, please do, and feel free to open issues in the issue tracker. But, please don't expect it to work perfectly yet, especially for more advanced models.
Quick Start Guide
You can install Larch v6 with pip:
python -m pip install larch6
This will install the package and all of its required dependencies. Note that while the installation name is "larch6", the package import name is "larch", and you cannot install both Larch v5 and Larch v6 in the same environment.
Or you can install it using conda
to create a new environment:
conda env create -p ARBORETUM -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/driftlesslabs/larch/main/envs/arboretum.yml
conda activate ./ARBORETUM
Developer's Installation
Before you start with the installation, you need have the following tools already:
- miniforge for Mac or Linux or miniforge for Windows
- gh, the github command line tool (
conda install gh
should work)
#!/usr/bin/env zsh
# exit this script immediately upon any failure
set -e
# Change this directory to where you want to install this whole mess
export TARGET_DIR="${HOME}/driftless"
# make the target working directory if it doesn't already exist
mkdir -p "${TARGET_DIR}"
# change to the target working directory
cd -- "${TARGET_DIR}"
# clone the various repositories
gh repo clone driftlesslabs/larch -- --recurse-submodules
# install the conda development environment
mkdir -p .env/LARIX
conda env update -p .env/LARIX -f larch/envs/development.yaml
conda activate .env/LARIX
# make this environment available to jupyter
ipython kernel install --user --name=LARIX
# rip examples to loadable modules
python larch/tools/rip_examples.py
# prep sharrow submodule
uv pip install -e ./larch/sharrow
# compile and install
uv pip install -e ./larch
# run unit tests (optional)
mkdir sandbox
cd sandbox
python -m pytest -v ../larch/sharrow/sharrow/tests
python -m pytest -v ../larch/tests
Windows Installation
The above script should mostly work on Windows as well, but one minor modification
is required, as the JAX library is not yet available for Windows via conda. You need to
install it with pip instead. So, replace the conda env update
line in the script
above with the following:
conda env update -p .env/LARIX -f larch/envs/windows.yaml
