1.5 Quick Setup

In this part, you can easy to setup Theano, Lasagne, and Nolearn in the global environment via executing the bash script below:

#!/bin/bash
# Easy installation on Ubuntu 14.04 server

### Requirements ###
sudo apt-get install python-numpy
if [ $? -eq 100 ]; then 
  sudo mv /var/cache/apt/archives/lock /var/cache/apt/archives/lock_bak
  sudo apt-get install python-numpy
fi
sudo apt-get install cython python-scipy python-dev python-pip python-nose g++ libopenblas-dev git libblas-dev liblapack-dev libatlas-base-dev gfortran 

### Install Theano, Lasagne, Nolearn ###
# If you want to install local packages, please use `virtualenv` or use `pip install --user`
sudo pip install -r https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dnouri/nolearn/master/requirements.txt
sudo pip install nolearn==0.5b1 #Don't install the current version!

Installing Problems

1. Scipy upgrade failed: try to install packages below then reinstall Scipy:

   $ sudo apt-get install python-numpy python-scipy python-matplotlib ipython ipython-notebook python-pandas python-sympy python-nose
   $ sudo pip install scipy
   

   where first line was provided by scipy.org.

   2016/07/13 update:

   If your machine is 64-bit, it might apper a LONG LONG time when installing the Scipy 0.16.1. Without long time for waiting, you can try the older version instead of it :

   $ pip install scipy==0.10.1
   

2. Can not find nolearn-requirements.txt: here is the word inside:

   # https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dnouri/nolearn/master/requirements.txt
   numpy==1.10.4
   scipy==0.16.1
   Theano==0.8
   -e git+https://github.com/Lasagne/Lasagne.git@8f4f9b2#egg=Lasagne==0.2.git
   joblib==0.9.3
   scikit-learn==0.17
   tabulate==0.7.5
   

   try to use one-by-one commands to install, like this:

   $ sudo pip install numpy==1.10.4
   $ sudo pip install scipy==0.16.1
   ...
   

3. Could not find a tag or branch '8f4f9b2':It is not a big issue. System would install the approximate version automatically. Like Lasagne 0.2.dev1.
