Hello

I want to use flowtorch on my windows systerm. I want to know if it can be installed by the wsl(I have tried to do it ,but I am failed).

Dear @smallduan, I have yet to have the chance to test flowTorch on Windows. A few pieces of code are Linux/Unix specific (Dataloaders), but I plan to replace them. In the WSL/Ubuntu, everything should work as usual. Can you clarify why precisely the installation process fails? Best regards, Andre

Dear @AndreWeiner

Thank you for your help.

I installed the flowtorch use pip3 install git+https://github.com/FlowModelingControl/flowtorch.
I installed Paraview and changed the .bashrc
I use vscode to try the example from the online document in Optimal hard threshold for singular values with python3.8.10
Then I get errors

Best regards smallduan

The problem comes from the ParaView Python module. ParaView comes with some versions of standard Python packages that sometimes conflict with the system's versions. I am still trying to figure out how to avoid this conflict in the installation procedure. Two solutions: 1) if you don't need the ParaView module (no Tecplot data):

uninstall flowTorch: pip3 uninstall flowtorch
install the dev branch pip3 install git+https://github.com/FlowModelingControl/flowtorch.git@aweiner 2) if you need the Tecplot loader:
go to the installation path, e.g. cd /opt/ParaView-5.9.1-MPI-Linux-Python3.8-x86_64/lib/python3.8/site-packages
remove conflicting packages manually: sudo rm -r h5py matplotlib pandas mpl_toolkits numpy pandas scipy pygments

Option 1) is definitely the better one. Hope this helps. Best, Andre

Dear @AndreWeiner

I have tried the option1 230326

and restart the wsl, but the same errors still account when I try to use from flowtorch.analysis import SVD. Maybe this problem is caused by the WSL.

Dear @AndreWeiner

I am going to install anaconda in wsl and try again. I hope I can finish it successfully.😊

Hello @AndreWeiner

I have installed flowtorch successfully by conda environment by option1. I think the problem above may caused by the system python environment.

Best regards smallduan

Dear @smallduan, thank you so much for reporting back on how exactly you made it work. That will be very helpful for me when creating instructions for a Windows setup at some point in the future. I'll close this issue for now. Thanks again, Andre
