The pip command install dali 0.27.0 on python-3.11-conda environment

Hi, guys,
I am trying to install the latest dali release on my python-3.11-conda environment, and I run the pip-command in the doc.
But I found that the dali 0.27.0 had been installed as:

So, does dali support python 3.11 now?

Your answer and guide will be appreciated!

Hi @songyuc,

I'm sorry but DALI doesn't support python 3.11 yet. Version 0.27 is installed as before 0.28 there was no proper python version specifier in the wheel manifest. It was added in 0.28 - see this line.

Hi, @JanuszL,
Will the support of python 3.11 be added to the following visible roadmap, like [DALI 2022 roadmap]?

[JanuszL]

We don't plan to support python 3.11 yet. Maybe next year as an experimental feature, as just 3.10 has been widely adopted by the available frameworks.

Thanks sincerely for your response, and look forward to the future support🥳

Hi @songyuc,

The latest DALI version should support python 3.11 (experimentally as we don't run full test sweep but still).

I tried the pip command of CUDA 11 on my Ubuntu, which has a strange behavior of downloading every historical dalis.

@songyuc,

I just checked on my side and it works fine:

python3.11 -m pip install --extra-index-url https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/redist --upgrade nvidia-dali-cuda110

apt update && apt install -y python3.11 wget -y && \
wget https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py && \
python3.11 get-pip.py && \
python3.11 -m pip install --extra-index-url https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/redist --upgrade nvidia-dali-cuda110 && \
python3.11 -c "import nvidia.dali"
