Install

• from source

git clone https://github.com/unlimblue/KNN_CUDA.git
cd KNN_CUDA
make && make install

• from wheel

pip install --upgrade https://github.com/unlimblue/KNN_CUDA/releases/download/0.2/KNN_CUDA-0.2-py3-none-any.whl

And then, make sure ninja has been installed:

1. see https://pytorch.org/tutorials/advanced/cpp_extension.html
2. or just:

wget -P /usr/bin https://github.com/unlimblue/KNN_CUDA/raw/master/ninja

• for windows

You should use branch windows:

git clone --branch windows https://github.com/unlimblue/KNN_CUDA.git
cd C:\\PATH_TO_KNN_CUDA
make
make install

import torch

# Make sure your CUDA is available.
assert torch.cuda.is_available()
