Hello,

It seems I got some sort of issue while installing the requirements
Any help will be really appreciated 🙏

This is a bit late but hopefully this will help new people who might face similar issues (also related to #3).

The problem in summary is the python version, this won't work on python 3.12 so we need to downgrade to python 3.10

Now best solution to this is to use Conda, I recommend you install it if you haven't already:
https://www.anaconda.com/download/success (I'm using Miniconda which is the light-weight version)

(Note: don't forget to add conda to PATH if you're on windows)

Conda will allow us to create a virtual environment using any python version (in our case we want 3.10)

inside the root directory of the repo create a new file called environment.yml

channels:
  - pytorch
  - nvidia
  - conda-forge
  - defaults
dependencies:
  - python=3.10
  - pip
  - pytorch=2.2.0
  - pytorch-cuda=11.8
  - torchvision
  - torchaudio
  - pip:
      - opencv-python==4.6.0.66
      - pytest==7.1.3
      - pydantic==1.10.2
      - loguru==0.6.0
      - tqdm==4.64.1
      - Pillow==9.2.0
      - diffusers==0.32.2
      - transformers
      - scikit-image==0.19.3
      - gradio
      - timm

then run these commands in order:

conda env create -f environment.yml
conda activate myenv
pip install einops

That's it, should work now, edit the example.py and test it!

conda env create -f environment.yml

i keep getting this error :(
