XGBoost Python Package
Project description
======================
XGBoost Python Package
======================
|PyPI version|
Notes
=====
- Windows users: pip installation may not work on some Windows environments, and it may cause unexpected errors.
Installation from pip on Windows is therefore currently disabled for further investigation; please `install from Github <https://xgboost.readthedocs.io/en/latest/build.html>`_ instead.
- If you want to run XGBoost process in parallel using the fork backend for joblib/multiprocessing, you must build XGBoost without support for OpenMP by ``make no_omp=1``. Otherwise, use the forkserver (in Python 3.4) or spawn backend. See the `sklearn\_parallel.py <../demo/guide-python/sklearn_parallel.py>`__ demo.
Requirements
============
Since this package contains C++ source code, ``pip`` needs a C++ compiler from the system to compile the source code on-the-fly.
macOS
-----
On macOS, ``gcc@5`` is required as later versions remove support for OpenMP. `See here <https://github.com/dmlc/xgboost/issues/1501#issuecomment-292209578>`_ for more info.
Please install ``gcc@5`` from `Homebrew <https://brew.sh/>`_::
brew install gcc@5
After installing ``gcc@5``, set it as your compiler::
export CC = gcc-5
export CXX = g++-5
Linux
-----
Please install ``gcc``::
sudo apt-get install build-essential # Ubuntu/Debian
sudo yum groupinstall 'Development Tools' # CentOS/RHEL
Installation
============
>From `PyPI <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/xgboost>`_
---------------------------------------------------
For a stable version, install using ``pip``::
pip install xgboost
>From source
-----------
For an up-to-date version, `install from Github <https://xgboost.readthedocs.io/en/latest/build.html>`_:
- Run ``./build.sh`` in the root of the repo.
- Make sure you have `setuptools <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools>`_ installed: ``pip install setuptools``
- Install with ``cd python-package; python setup.py install`` from the root of the repo
- For Windows users, please use the Visual Studio project file under the `Windows folder <../windows/>`_. See also the `installation
tutorial <https://www.kaggle.com/c/otto-group-product-classification-challenge/forums/t/13043/run-xgboost-from-windows-and-python>`_ from Kaggle Otto Forum.
- Add MinGW to the system PATH in Windows if you are using the latest version of xgboost which requires compilation::
python
import os
os.environ['PATH'] = os.environ['PATH'] + ';C:\\Program Files\\mingw-w64\\x86_64-5.3.0-posix-seh-rt_v4-rev0\\mingw64\\bin'
Examples
========
- Refer also to the walk through example in `demo folder <https://github.com/dmlc/xgboost/tree/master/demo/guide-python>`_.
- See also the `example scripts <https://github.com/dmlc/xgboost/tree/master/demo/kaggle-higgs>`_ for Kaggle
Higgs Challenge, including `speedtest script <https://github.com/dmlc/xgboost/tree/master/demo/kaggle-higgs/speedtest.py>`_ on this dataset.
