How to install torchtext 0.4.0 on conda

You can also use the pytorch channel as described on the official anaconda site:

conda install -c pytorch torchtext

https://anaconda.org/pytorch/torchtext


  1. Create conda env with python:

    $ conda create -n torchtext python=3.7

  2. Activate it:

    $ conda activate torchtext

torchtext 0.4.0 installation currently is not available via conda. So we will use pip, anyway pip installs torchtext inside your activated conda env.

  1. Let's find torchtex available versions:

    (torchtext)$ pip search torchtext torchtext (0.3.1) - Text utilities and datasets for PyTorch

As you can see there is no 0.4.0. 4. But we can install it from official github repo:

(torchtext)$ pip install git+https://github.com/pytorch/text.git
  1. Verify the installation:

    (torchtext)$ conda list

    ...

    torch 1.1.0 pypi_0 pypi

    torchtext 0.4.0 pypi_0 pypi

    tqdm 4.32.2 pypi_0 pypi

    ...

    (torchtext)$ python -c "import torchtext; print('torchtext is fine!')"

    torchtext is fine!
