Nunchaku Installer

A simple command-line tool to easily install the Nunchaku Python library, working around the file size limit on PyPI.

Why this tool?

The Nunchaku library is distributed as .whl files that exceed the maximum size allowed by PyPI (over 100 MB). This installer automates the process of:

  1. Detecting your system configuration (OS, Python version, PyTorch version).
  2. Finding the corresponding Nunchaku version on GitHub releases.
  3. Downloading and installing the correct .whl file.

Installation

You can install nunchaku-installer via pip:

pip install nunchaku-installer

Usage

Installing the latest version of Nunchaku

The basic command automatically detects your system and installs the latest compatible version of Nunchaku.

nunchaku-installer install

Installing a specific version

You can specify an exact version by using its GitHub release tag.

nunchaku-installer install --version v0.3.1

Using uv as the installation backend

If you prefer to use uv (an ultra-fast installer), you can specify it with the --backend option.

# Make sure 'uv' is installed (pip install uv)
nunchaku-installer install --backend uv

Listing available versions
