Wheel for Raspberry PI (ARM processor)

[FormerLurker]

Describe your feature request

Could a wheel be created for installing via pip on a raspberry pi? I tested ray on windows, and it worked amazingly well, and would LOVE to get it working on a raspberry pi too. This would make it much easier to distribute my cross platform open-source application for raspberry pi users.

Thank you for your amazing work!

I am surprised this has not come up earlier. How can we install on raspberry? pip seems to be not an option ... or am I missing some tricks of pip for these cases?

It will need to be manually compiled for now. I'm sure it's come up before, but it takes time and effort to build a new wheel, so it's a question of demand I think.

I haven't had the time to manually build this and compile instructions yet, but I plan to. I got slammed with issues (holiday weekends are always like this) and have been stuck on those. I will update this issue with instructions ASAP.

Thanks for the effort!

Hey
I've made a few builds last week (see #12835) for ray 1.0.1:
All python3.6:

• aarch64: https://github.com/ray-project/ray/files/5729517/ray-1.0.1-aarch64.zip
• arm7: https://github.com/ray-project/ray/files/5703429/ray_armv7l_32bit.zip

[PidgeyBE]

• ray 1.1.0 aarch64: ray-1.1.0-cp36-aarch64.zip

Thnaks! Does it mean it is on pip, or we are supposed to test it? In the latter case how to install it on my python setup?

@foice It is not published in the Pypi repository, I don't have access to that, I've just built the wheels myself. So you should download the zip, unzip it, and install the wheels via

pip install py_spy_xxxxxxxxx.whl
pip install ray-xxxxxxxx.whl

@PidgeyBE Would you happen to have a wheel for aarch64 + Python 3.8? I'm trying to make this work natively on a mac M1 but I haven't been able to build ray correctly.

[PidgeyBE]

@deetungsten I've just compiled them for you, Merry Christmas!
ray-1.1.0-cp38-aarch64.zip
Let me know if it works! I've tested it locally in an emulator and it works...

Hey, thank you @PidgeyBE!!! I have been buried under a mountain of end of the year work. Today's the earliest I had a chance to look at this, so THANK YOU for saving me time and effort :)

[deetungsten]

@PidgeyBE WOW thank you so much! Ahah best Christmas gift ever! I will test it later tonight after all the Christmas activities. Merry Christmas!
