Consider uploading to pypi #225

Open jon-chuang opened 11 months ago

jon-chuang commented 11 months ago

There are at least 2 dependent projects now:

It would be nice if users could pip install colbert-ir instead of having to install from source.

okhat commented 11 months ago

Agreed. We already have a working setup.py so this sounds not too hard

jon-chuang commented 11 months ago

Note that colbert name is already taken. https://pypi.org/project/Colbert/

Another requirement is to be able to do pip install colbert-ir[cpu]

Hello! Is there a timeline for this work by any chance?

okhat commented 8 months ago

@krypticmouse @hmoazam @hichewss are on it, among other work they're doing, some roadblocks due to faiss but getting close

I believe that #268 indicates that the setup.py is not working fully. It is not exposing the .cpp source files, if I'm correct.
