How exactly does one install and use Libtorch on the AGX Xavier?

[anthonycelio]

I’ve seen all questions about how to install Libtorch directed here.
A wheel installs PyTorch and the mods refer people seeking Libtorch to this path ~/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/torch/lib

But I don’t know how to make use of this path. I need to build the Libtorch script with cmake and I’m getting the error…

$ cmake -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/home/jet/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/torch/lib ..

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:4 (find_package):
  By not providing "FindTorch.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project has
  asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by "Torch", but
  CMake did not find one.


  Could not find a package configuration file provided by "Torch" with any of
  the following names:

    TorchConfig.cmake
    torch-config.cmake

  Add the installation prefix of "Torch" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set
  "Torch_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files.  If "Torch"
  provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it has been
  installed.

This is my CMakeLists.txt

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.0 FATAL_ERROR)
project(example-app)

find_package(Torch REQUIRED)
set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} ${TORCH_CXX_FLAGS}")

add_executable(example-app example-app.cpp)
target_link_libraries(example-app "${TORCH_LIBRARIES}")
set_property(TARGET example-app PROPERTY CXX_STANDARD 14)

# The following code block is suggested to be used on Windows.
# According to https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/issues/25457,
# the DLLs need to be copied to avoid memory errors.
if (MSVC)
  file(GLOB TORCH_DLLS "${TORCH_INSTALL_PREFIX}/lib/*.dll")
  add_custom_command(TARGET example-app
                     POST_BUILD
                     COMMAND ${CMAKE_COMMAND} -E copy_if_different
                     ${TORCH_DLLS}
                     $<TARGET_FILE_DIR:example-app>)
endif (MSVC)

I’m simply trying to compile the example script for Libtorch from the official site

Hi,

Have you cloned the source with the --recursive flag?
This will enable submodule download as well.

$ git clone --recursive --branch <version> http://github.com/pytorch/pytorch

Thanks.
