This section covers the requirements and setup needed to run all Riva tutorials.
Before you try running the NVIDIA Riva tutorials, ensure you meet the following requirements:
-
Clone the NVIDIA Riva tutorials repository.
git clone https://github.com/nvidia-riva/tutorials.git
cd tutorials
-
Create a Python virtual environment. We will use this virtual environment to install all the dependencies needed for the Riva tutorials.
python3 -m venv venv-riva-tutorials
-
Activate the Python virtual environment we just created.
. venv-riva-tutorials/bin/activate
-
Install Jupyter notebook.
pip3 install jupyter
-
Create an IPython kernel. The Riva tutorials Jupyter notebooks will use this kernel in the next step.
ipython kernel install --user --name=venv-riva-tutorials
-
Start the Jupyter notebooks server.
jupyter notebook --allow-root --port 8888
If you have a browser installed on your machine, the notebook should automatically open. If you do not have a browser, copy/paste the URL from the command.
Once you open a Riva tutorial notebook on a browser, choose the venv-riva-tutorials
kernel by Kernel
-> Change kernel
-> venv-riva-tutorials
.
Before you try running the Riva client, ensure you meet the following requirements:
- You have access and are logged into NVIDIA NGC. For step-by-step instructions, refer to the NGC Getting Started Guide.
- Python 3
-
[Optional] If using the
venv-riva-tutorials
(or another) Python virtual environment, activate it.. <Python virtual environment directory location>/venv-riva-tutorials/bin/activate
-
Install
nvidia-riva-client
usingpip
.
pip install nvidia-riva-client
Alternatively, you can install it from the source; nvidia-riva/python-clients.
