PYPI project is not updated

How do I install Latest taichi using pypi insted of using pip install git+...
taichi project is not updated on pypi. It is Hard to install it using git+ way for any module.

[JamesParrott]

Taichi 1.7 is the latest release on both.

https://github.com/taichi-dev/taichi/releases
https://pypi.org/project/taichi/#history

pip install git+https://github... builds a development version from source. However other code hosting services are available too. Even non-git ones.

Pypi doesn't check every possible location a project could host its source code.

But It Does not Support pyhton version 3.12. but git one dose.

pip install taichi

We won't support 3.12 until PyTorch reached it... Otherwise our CI tests simply won't pass

[SohamTilekar]

git+... version supports the python3.12 but the pypi hosted version do not.

[JamesParrott]

Presumably the git+ version is not a supported release, but the in-development version, that can't pass the CI tests until PyTorch is updated.

@JamesParrott pytorch already supports python 3.12, so I guess the next version of taichi would support it as well?

Any idea when it is going to be available?

[JamesParrott]

I haven't the faintest idea. But to make it happen, you could run the Python 3.12 tests the devs mentioned, that were waiting on PyTorch. #8365

It looks like they're very nearly there, there're just a couple of little issues to sort out on Apple M1 (int 32 overflows).

We are fixing some of the last bugs with Python 3.12 and numpy 2.0, I think for most of the x86 platforms we are building 3.12 wheels for nightly, you can install the nightly for now. The mac os arm64 nightly should be unblocked by #8522
