Not yet, we're working on native support, and you can upvote the GitHub ticket here: https://github.com/modularml/mojo/issues/510 We have instructions to set up a remote x86-64 environment here: https://developer.modular.com/download And if you're on macOS with an x86 chip you can set up a docker container: https://github.com/modularml/mojo/blob/main/examples/docker/Dockerfile.mojosdk

Is it expected not to work even when using a Docker container built with FROM --platform=linux/amd64 mcr.microsoft.com/devcontainers/base:ubuntu-22.04?

I am already running it in the remote x86_64 env, but it is not the same you sure understand. It is good for testing Mojo itself apart from all my real life projects

@Julia that's right emulation through QEMU and Rosetta both don't work

Definitely we understand how much the community wants native support!

Even having support for ARM so we could run it with Docker would be great I think

is there a non-native version rn? pardon my misunderstanding but i thought just linux for now?

You can install into a remote container if on arm64, or use a docker container if on x86_64

I finally found some sane documentation on targeting Apple Neural Engine directly. https://github.com/eiln/ane/blob/main/docs/README.md The most simple HelloWorld would be to use the ANE to make a memcopy()? Second would be hashing memory regions?

can you give me the exact command? My apple silicon says it is not arm64 tried "curl https://get.modular.com | \ MODULARAUTH=mut \ sh -" and "brew update brew install modularml/packages/modular" and it fails

I have just issued the curl command and brew commands were automatic then the export MODULAR_HOME and export PATH commands followed by modular auth [same code as the curl] and modular install mojo

I successfully installed the CLI using the auth key. Step 3 raises an error. Maybe a dumb question: do I not need step 3 or do I need the auth key again.

run modular auth <your-auth-key-here> first and then run modular install mojo run:

Hi Jack, thanks, I was just reading the same on github and was about to try to uninstall and reinstall brew. @Jack Clayton is it required to have the command line tools for Xcode 14.3? I have Xcode 15.0.1. The first step now fails with: Error: Your Command Line Tools are too outdated. I have Xcode 15.0.1 on Ventura 13.6
Zac Bowling
Zac Bowling13mo ago
That can happen for a number of reasons but typically if something is in the middle of your connection between the client and server. Like if your network environment has a reverse proxy or some firewall setups or a captive portal for WiFi setups, etc.
JackCooperUsesNeovim
ohhh ok i think ik what it is.
Jack Clayton
Jack ClaytonOP13mo ago
@Alexander van der Werff can you try running brew doctor
Alexander van der Werff
Yes did it, I see it prints Warnings: Warning: Your Command Line Tools are too outdated. Update them from Software Update in System Settings. If that doesn't show you any updates, run: sudo rm -rf /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools sudo xcode-select --install Alternatively, manually download them from: https://developer.apple.com/download/all/. You should download the Command Line Tools for Xcode 14.3. Warning: A newer Command Line Tools release is available. Update them from Software Update in System Settings. If that doesn't show you any updates, run: sudo rm -rf /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools sudo xcode-select --install Alternatively, manually download them from: https://developer.apple.com/download/all/. You should download the Command Line Tools for Xcode 14.3. ..and some more, but I should have the Command Line Tools for Xcode 15.0.1 and brew config shows: CLT: 12.0.0.32.27 Xcode: 15.0.1 Rosetta 2: false
Jack Clayton
Jack ClaytonOP13mo ago
Oh yeah, I don't even have Xcode installed, maybe try uninstalling it:
CLT: 14.3.1.0.1.1683849156
Xcode: N/A
Rosetta 2: false
CLT: 14.3.1.0.1.1683849156
Xcode: N/A
Rosetta 2: false
You can install everything you need for brew just with:
xcode-select --install
xcode-select --install
And then I just brew install llvm
Alexander van der Werff
Right, I need Xcode though, but I see the CLT is pointing to the wrong version somehow
Jack Clayton
Jack ClaytonOP13mo ago
Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling brew? That seems to be fixing a lot of problems for people
markolonius
markolonius13mo ago
Would there be loss of performance if used docker instead of a system (brew) install on an Apple silicon Mac? Not sure if this is the right place to ask.
Alexander van der Werff
yes I did, I had the intel version (because of previous mac), so following https://github.com/modularml/mojo/issues/1078 fixed it partly, now I need to see why brew is pointing to CLT 12.0 while I have xcode 15 installed on my machine.. probably some old left over

It gives all kind of issues like network and so on, where it is actually a different issue. I had a very tough time with the installation as rosetta was enabled in the options for Terminal app inside applications folder. Then I had to delete brew as it was under users and re-did it under opt. Have you tried disabling rosetta?

@Jack Clayton removing the CLT (sudo rm -rf /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools) and xcode-select --install did the trick

I'm experiencing issues with getting Mojo to recognize the Python library in my Conda environment on my 13" MacBook M2. I have modified the modular.cfg file to include the path relative to the local Python library, as specified in the documentation. However, when I import "sys" from the Mojo REPL, it doesn't seem to read the Python library properly, leading to problems later on. To be precise, the following line in my modular.cfg file defines the location of the Python library within your Conda environment:
python_lib = /Users/gio/opt/anaconda3/envs/pymojo/lib/libpython3.10.dylib
python_lib = /Users/gio/opt/anaconda3/envs/pymojo/lib/libpython3.10.dylib
It appears to be indeed the correct library path within the pymojo Conda environment:
(pymojo) ➜ ~ ls -ll /Users/gio/opt/anaconda3/envs/pymojo/lib/libpython3.10.dylib
-rwxrwxr-x 1 gio staff 3906684 Oct 22 13:53 /Users/gio/opt/anaconda3/envs/pymojo/lib/libpython3.10.dylib
(pymojo) ➜ ~ ls -ll /Users/gio/opt/anaconda3/envs/pymojo/lib/libpython3.10.dylib
-rwxrwxr-x 1 gio staff 3906684 Oct 22 13:53 /Users/gio/opt/anaconda3/envs/pymojo/lib/libpython3.10.dylib
Now, when I import the python lib from Mojo's REPL this is the error I get:
2> from python import Python
3> let sys = Python.import_module("sys")
4.
(PythonObject) sys = {
(PyObjectPtr) py_object = <parent is NULL>
}
Execution interrupted. Enter code to recover and continue.
Enter LLDB commands to investigate (type :help for assistance).
2> from python import Python
3> let sys = Python.import_module("sys")
4.
(PythonObject) sys = {
(PyObjectPtr) py_object = <parent is NULL>
}
Execution interrupted. Enter code to recover and continue.
Enter LLDB commands to investigate (type :help for assistance).
Do yo have any ideas of what might be the issue? (Interestingly when I installed Numpy on the default Python installation it worked just fine. This issue seems to be related to Conda envs)

I'm not fully sure what's the relationship between mojo and my system python, but it seems to be importing numpy from the virtualenv.

I'm not fully sure what's the relationship between mojo and my system python, but it seems to be importing numpy from the virtualenv.
I have the same/similar question: Can I choose/activate a particular python env for mojo to work with? I normally do this in my notebooks by selecting a python kernel, but since I need to select Mojo as my kernel, the relationship is no longer clear to me @JRX the solution recommended to me for python import problems (and it did work) was to just install miniconda. Not sure if that applies to your situation, but mojo seems to find python packages after install.

@Gio can you try activating your conda environment, then put this in a test.mojo and run it:
from python import Python

def main():
let sys = Python.import_module("sys")
print(sys.path)
from python import Python

def main():
let sys = Python.import_module("sys")
print(sys.path)
And if you still get an error run:
which -a python
echo $MOJO_PYTHON_LIBRARY
which -a python
echo $MOJO_PYTHON_LIBRARY

I've tried to set up conda for myself and for python installed with conda mojo works. unfortunately for python from pyenv it doesnt 😢 ok, I managed to solve my problem. the issue comes from the fact that I had system python linked as python_lib in modular.cfg but in runtime I was using libraries from pyenv python. After setting the right python_lib mojo works well with pyenv python. I had to rebuild python with shared libraries though
