Installation issues / Doc unclarity (Ubuntu 20.04)

[jchwenger]

System information

• OS Platform and Distribution (e.g., Linux Ubuntu 16.04): Ubuntu 20.04
• TensorFlow.js converter installed with pip in a conda env
• TensorFlow.js version:

In Python 3.6.8

tensorflowjs 3.18.0
Dependency versions:
  keras 2.6.0
  tensorflow 2.6.2

pip 21.3.1

In Python 3.8

tensorflowjs 4.11.0
# error, see below
pip 23.2.1

• CUDA/cuDNN version: [Unsure: probably a part of the installation that is taken for granted in the docs? I installed the required dependencies in my other env for the latest Python TF, but for tensorflowjs & tf-nightly-cpu-2.0-preview, where do I find this?]

Describe the problem

I'm hoping to find the simplest, and clearest way to install the converter to get students to convert small models from Python to JS, which may prove difficult at this point.

I tried with conda for the base python, followed by pip (hoping I wouldn't have to use pyenv, which would add more install complexity, especially for non MacOS users). Strangely, things seem to be working with python 3.8, but not with 3.6.8.

Provide the exact sequence of commands / steps that you executed before running into the problem

conda create -n tfjs-convert python=3.6.8
conda activate tfjs-convert
which pip # correctly points to env pip
pip install tf-nightly-cpu-2.0-preview
pip install tensorflowjs

See below the error that I get.

When I do this, however, things seem to work out of the box, but that's not in the docs:

conda create -n tfjs-convert python=3.8
conda activate tfjs-convert
which pip # correctly points to env pip
pip install tensorflowjs # no tf install prior to this

I'm assuming (hoping) that in principle using a conda env with only python and pip installed should be equivalent to using venv with the same. Could someone confirm that, or confirm that the steps in the docs work on an Ubuntu machine?

Is there any chance you could either:

1. guarantee that the steps in the docs just work on your end;
2. see if there's a way for a conda (for python) followed by pip commands would work as well; or even
3. provide a Docker container that people can just run and that works out of the box?

Also, as you can see, my attempt is with a .keras model, which again worked, but isn't present in the readme...?

The functionalities are very nice and promising, and as said I managed to convert a small DCGAN, but the recurrent issues around install, broken libraries links (also in TF updates), are a real barrier of entry (it seems simpler to me now to write a Flask app all in Python rather than guaranteeing the conversion will work)?

I feel like there's probably a lot of places where I made mistakes here, so I understand if it's a bit difficult to untangle all this, but thanks in advance for any pointers!

Any other info / logs

Error with Python 3.6.8

[In hindsight, probably because the .keras format is not supported yet in this version?]

Note

In none of the environments I create (and even with conda install pip to upgrade) does the command pip install tensorflowjs[wizard] works (I'm not sure if the brackets are an option of an older, or newer, version of pip). pip install tensorflowjs works, of course, and the wizard ships with it (although I get all sorts of errors and warnings).

Hi, @jchwenger

I apologize for the delayed response. Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention. I believe you are referring to the official TensorFlow.js documentation

I will try to replicate the same behavior on my end using an Ubuntu 20.04 machine. It is most likely that the documentation is outdated, but we need to confirm this by replicating the behavior. If we observe the same behavior, we will update the official documentation.

To confirm, did you observe above behaviour on CPU or GPU also after following the official TensorFlow installation documentation ?

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

[jchwenger]

Hi @gaikwadrahul8,

No worries at all, thanks for your reply. Yes indeed, that's what I had in mind. I have a GPU, yes, and can run TF 2.13 without issue, but the tfjs docs specifies a cpu version of TF? Also, tfjs has TF as its dependencies, but does that still mean one should do an install of TF first, and is the latest version compatible? That's the kind of steps that would be nice to have laid out in the docs.

In fact, it's something like this that would be great to have, so I can tell students, ok, you're on Mac, create an environment, follow these steps, etc.

Thanks in advance!

[gaikwadrahul8]

Hi, @jchwenger

To confirm, is this issue happening only on MacOS system or is it happening other OS systems also if that is case then please help us with OS details ?

Currently there is no official GPU support for running TensorFlow on MacOS if you're looking to use GPU on MacOS then you'll have to follow these official documentation from apple developer forum with tensorflow-metal

Yes, you'll have to install Tensorflow on your machine first and to install Tensorflow with CPU then please follow this official documentation for MacOS , please refer this Codelab tutorial which may help you

I see we have updated official documentation to install Tensorflow on MacOS with CPU with Note: Requires Python 3.9–3.11, and pip >= 20.3 for MacOS.

I agree there should be proper official documentation like Tensorflow installation for tfjs-converter also and we'll update soon but we'll have to test on different OS systems before updating official documentation so it may take some time to test on different OS systems.

Meanwhile, could you please follow above steps and let us know, it is resolving your issue or not ? Thank you!

[jchwenger]

Oh, no, for me it's happening on Ubuntu 20.04, as I specified in my original issue (which btw did mention that I created a conda env, installed tensorflow cpu with pip, installed tensorflowjs, then ran into errors...)

What I meant was that I would need reliable instructions for various OS-s, for instance Mac, but Windows as well, so that it is possible for me to point people to the right procedure according to each OS!

[gaikwadrahul8]

Hi, @jchwenger

I followed the exact steps which you have mentioned below on my MacOS M1 with python 3.8,3.9,3.10 and 3.11 and it's installing as expected but I observed one thing when first time I'm running pip install tensorflowjs command I'm getting below error message but when I'm running the same command again I'm not getting that error message I haven't converted any model to Tensorflow.js I just imported Tensorflow.js

If you've MacOS system could you please confirm you're also getting the same behaviour or different behaviour which will help us to investigate this issue further, We'll also try to test on other OS systems Linux and Windows. Thank you!

Hi,

I did one quick test on a conda environment with python 3.11 on a MacBook Air (using Miniforge) and that works like you describe (given that I reckon the problem stems from GPU management in the TF version on Ubuntu, I trust that things would be smoother on Mac?).

Frustratingly, it's on Ubuntu that I run into issues, like this:

I proceed with pip install PyInquirer==1.0.3, and that fails due to:

ipython 8.13.2 requires prompt-toolkit!=3.0.37,<3.1.0,>=3.0.30, but you have prompt-toolkit 1.0.14 which is incompatible.

Oh, something else I noticed that seems missing from the docs: the new recommended format for saving Keras models .keras, should that be treated as --input_format keras_saved_model? I tried a few options, and that one seemed to work, notwithstanding some warnings (in the Mac env mentioned above). One of the options of the CLI, displayed in --help for the --input_format is keras_keras, which is not described anywhere that I could find.

[gaikwadrahul8]

Hi, @jchwenger

I tried to convert one simple .keras model format to Tensorflow.js with the help of tfjs-converter but it's failing and I'm getting below error so I believe we haven't added support for new .keras model format as of now if I'm not wrong, for your reference I have added gist-file if that is case then adding support for new .keras model format will be considered as feature request.

Meanwhile, I'll try to test/replicate the same behaviour from my end on other OS systems like Ubuntu and Windows to update official documentation for tfjs-converter if needed.

I really appreciate your efforts and valuable time.thank you for your understanding and patience.

Hi @gaikwadrahul8, I just want to say sorry for letting this fall by the wayside. The idea of just using Colab is nice, actually, since at least one avoids having to make sure the cuda/cudnn installation is done properly.

Note that in your notebook you yourself don't even follow the steps described in the documentation [here](https://github.com/tensorflow/tfjs/tree/master/tfjs-converter#getting-started, and just go pip install tensorflowjs! It might be good, given your user base, to make sure that this doc really reflects current use.

Also, I hope the .keras format will soon be supported (I've even encountered an issue a few days ago where a .keras model saved with TF 2.14 on Colab fails on TF 2.13 on my local machine, so I guess a slight hellishness is likely here to stay, ah well...).
