Yeah protip, if you're looking for AI packages, use github search and do language:Nix PACKAGE_NAME buildPythonPackage and there's a good chance someone has already packaged it. That saves me so much time :D
Great, thanks !

@benoitdr:matrix.orgbenoitdrStill a question : I have successfully packaged ctransformers based on the information above, but it cannot see my GPU. If I would pip install it, I would use the cuda option (pip install ctransfomers[cuda]). Is there a way to pass the same option to buildPythonPackage ?13:01:55

(partially) answering to myslef, looking at setup.py, I can see that the cuda option corresponds to 2 extra packages :

        "cuda": [
            "nvidia-cuda-runtime-cu12",
            "nvidia-cublas-cu12",
        ],

Pass the respective flags to cmake

EDIT: aj this is from setup.py, nvm

14:34:33
@benoitdr:matrix.orgbenoitdrNeed more info ... indeed these 2 pkgs from setup.py are nvidia proprietary and only distributed as wheels on pypi. So what is the way out (if any) ? I have already tried to include python310Packages.pycuda, cudaPackages.libcublas, cudaPackages.cuda_cudart, cudaPackages.cudatoolkit , also passing allowUnfree = true; cudaSupport = true; to nixpkgs config, without success. I'm feeling a bit stuck here ...14:43:55
@ss:someonex.netSomeone S You need to pass this flag during the ctransformers build: https://github.com/marella/ctransformers/blob/ed02cf4b9322435972ff3566fd4832806338ca3d/CMakeLists.txt#L6 14:45:55
@ss:someonex.netSomeone S

cudaPackages.cudatoolkit

You can remove this one

14:46:22
@ss:someonex.netSomeone S

python310Packages.pycuda

I don't see pycuda in ctrasnformers' dependencies?

Their setup.py introduces an ad hoc environment variable for that: https://github.com/marella/ctransformers/blob/ed02cf4b9322435972ff3566fd4832806338ca3d/setup.py#L10C41-L10C42

@ss:someonex.netSomeone SIt would've been better if they weren't wrapping/hiding cmake from the user but at least there's a variable14:50:37
@ss:someonex.netSomeone S So you can set something like env.CT_CUBLAS = "ON" 14:51:22
@benoitdr:matrix.orgbenoitdrYep, env.CT_CUBLAS = "ON"; was the trick. Still I need cudatoolkit in propagatedBuildInputs, nothing more. Thanks a lot !15:58:26

Still I need cudatoolkit in propagatedBuildInputs

cudaPackages.cudatoolkit is being deprecated, you do not need it; cf. nixpkgs' torch or opencv4 derivations for examples

04:47:57
@ss:someonex.netSomeone SAlso there's no need to propagate it04:48:08
