How to install Tensorflow federated directly from GitHub or local download?

I want to have access to features from TensorFlow federated (tff.python.research) which aren't present with the pip3 install method.

I'm working on a remote server that does not have bazel, thus I cannot build from source. Are there other ways to get and install the latest working version of TFF from its GitHub REPO?

To install the latest Tensorflow 2.0 federated, you may follow the steps below.

Install TensorFlow Federated using pip

  1. Install the Python development environment
On Ubuntu:
  $ sudo apt update
  $ sudo apt install python3-dev python3-pip  # Python 3
  $ sudo pip3 install --upgrade virtualenv    # system-wide install

On macOS:
  $ /usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
  $ export PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:$PATH"
  $ brew update
  $ brew install python  # Python 3
  $ sudo pip3 install --upgrade virtualenv  # system-wide install
  1. Create a virtual environment
$ virtualenv --python python3 "venv"
$ source "venv/bin/activate"
(venv) $ pip install --upgrade pip


Note: To exit the virtual environment, run deactivate.
  1. Install the TensorFlow Federated pip package.
(venv) $ pip install --upgrade tensorflow_federated
  1. (Optional) Test Tensorflow Federated.
(venv) $ python -c "import tensorflow_federated as tff; print(tff.federated_computation(lambda: 'Hello World')())"

Build the TensorFlow Federated pip package

  1. Install the Python development environment.
On Ubuntu:
 $ sudo apt update
 $ sudo apt install python3-dev python3-pip  # Python 3
 $ sudo pip3 install --upgrade virtualenv  # system-wide install

On macOS:
 $ /usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
 $ export PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:$PATH"
 $ brew update
 $ brew install python  # Python 3
 $ sudo pip3 install --upgrade virtualenv  # system-wide install

  1. Install Bazel Install Bazel, the build tool used to compile Tensorflow Federated.

  2. Clone the Tensorflow Federated repository.

$ git clone https://github.com/tensorflow/federated.git
$ cd "federated"
  1. Create a virtual environment.
$ virtualenv --python python3 "venv"
$ source "venv/bin/activate"
(venv) $ pip install --upgrade pip

Note: To exit the virtual environment, run deactivate.
  1. Install Tensorflow Federated dependencies.
(venv) $ pip install --requirement "requirements.txt"
  1. (Optional) Test Tensorflow Federated.
(venv) $ bazel test //tensorflow_federated/...
  1. Create a new project.
$ mkdir "/tmp/project"
$ cd "/tmp/project"

$ virtualenv --python python3 "venv"
$ source "venv/bin/activate"
(venv) $ pip install --upgrade pip

Note: To exit the virtual environment run deactivate.
  1. Install the pip package.
(venv) $ pip install --upgrade "/tmp/tensorflow_federated/tensorflow_federated-"*".whl"
  1. Test Tensorflow Federated.
(venv) $ python -c "import tensorflow_federated as tff; print(tff.federated_computation(lambda: 'Hello World')())"
