  • Running the instructions in this section requires an AMD GPU in your system.

  • hipDF relies on CuPy with the ROCm backend. You must set the ROCM_HOME environment variable to the root of your ROCm installation so CuPy can locate ROCm. If ROCm is installed in the default location, set: export ROCM_HOME=/opt/rocm

  • The instructions assume a Conda environment named hipdf. If your environment has a different name, replace hipdf in the commands with the environment name.

After installing hipDF for use in the Conda environment hipdf, you can verify the correctness of the installation as follows:

conda activate hipdf
python3

Then enter the following code commands:

import hipdf
print(hipdf.__version__)

You should see output that is similar to:

Python 3.12.11 | packaged by conda-forge | (main, Jun  4 2025, 14:45:31) [GCC 13.3.0] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import hipdf
>>> print(hipdf.__version__)
