changing python version in docker

I am trying to have this repo on docker: https://github.com/facebookresearch/detectron2/tree/main/docker

but when I want to docker compose it, I receive this error:

ERROR: Package 'detectron2' requires a different Python: 3.6.9 not in '>=3.7'

The default version of the python I am using is 3.10 but I don’t know why through docker it’s trying to run it on python 3.6.9.

Is there a way for me to change it to a higher version of python while running the following dockerfile?

    You can use pyenv: https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv

    Just google docker pyenv container, will give you some entries like: https://gist.github.com/jprjr/7667947

    If you follow the gist you can see how it has been updated, very easy to update to latest python that pyenv support. anything since 2.2 to 3.11

    Only drawback is that container becomes quite large because it holds all glibc development tools and libraries to compile cpython, but often it helps in case you need modules without wheels and need to compile because it is already there.

    Below is a minimal Pyenv Dockerfile Just change the PYTHONVER or set a –build-arg to anything pythonversion pyenv support have (pyenv install -l):

    FROM ubuntu:22.04
ARG MYHOME=/root
ENV MYHOME ${MYHOME}
ARG PYTHONVER=3.10.5
ENV PYTHONVER ${PYTHONVER}
ARG PYTHONNAME=base
ENV PYTHONNAME ${PYTHONNAME}
ARG DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive
RUN apt-get update && apt-get upgrade -y && 
    apt-get install -y locales wget git curl zip vim apt-transport-https tzdata language-pack-nb language-pack-nb-base manpages 
    build-essential libjpeg-dev libssl-dev xvfb zlib1g-dev libbz2-dev libreadline-dev libreadline6-dev libsqlite3-dev tk-dev libffi-dev libpng-dev libfreetype6-dev 
    libx11-dev libxtst-dev libfontconfig1 lzma lzma-dev

RUN git clone https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv.git ${MYHOME}/.pyenv && 
    git clone https://github.com/yyuu/pyenv-virtualenv.git ${MYHOME}/.pyenv/plugins/pyenv-virtualenv && 
    git clone https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv-update.git ${MYHOME}/.pyenv/plugins/pyenv-update

SHELL ["/bin/bash", "-c", "-l"]

COPY ./.bash_profile  /tmp/
RUN cat /tmp/.bash_profile >> ${MYHOME}/.bashrc && 
    cat /tmp/.bash_profile >> ${MYHOME}/.bash_profile && 
    rm -f /tmp/.bash_profile && 
    source ${MYHOME}/.bash_profile && 
    pyenv install ${PYTHONVER} && 
    pyenv virtualenv ${PYTHONVER} ${PYTHONNAME} && 
    pyenv global ${PYTHONNAME}

    and the pyenv config to be saved as .bash_profile in Dockerfile directory:

    # profile for pyenv
export PYENV_ROOT="$HOME/.pyenv"
export PATH="$PYENV_ROOT/bin:$PATH"
eval "$(pyenv init -)"
eval "$(pyenv init --path)"
eval "$(pyenv virtualenv-init -)"

    build with:
    docker build -t pyenv:3.10.5 .

    Will build the image, but as said it is quite big:

    docker images
REPOSITORY  TAG     IMAGE ID       CREATED         SIZE
pyenv       3.10.5  64a4b91364d4   2 minutes ago   1.04GB

    very easy to test any python version only changing PYTHONVER

    docker run -ti pyenv:3.10.5 /bin/bash
(base) root@968fd2178c8a:/# python --version
Python 3.10.5
(base) root@968fd2178c8a:/# which python
/root/.pyenv/shims/python

    if I build with docker build -t pyenv:3.12-dev --build-arg PYTHONVER=3.12.dev . or change the PYTHONVER in the Dockerfile:

    docker run -ti pyenv:3.12-dev /bin/bash
(base) root@c7245ea9f52e:/# python --version
Python 3.12.0a0

    This is an open issue with facebookresearch/detectron2. The developers updated the base Python requirement from 3.6+ to 3.7+ with commit 5934a14 last week but didn’t modify the Dockerfile.

    I’ve created a Dockerfile based on Nvidia CUDA’s CentOS8 image (rather than Ubuntu) that should work.

    FROM nvidia/cuda:11.1.1-cudnn8-devel-centos8

RUN cd /etc/yum.repos.d/ && 
    sed -i 's/mirrorlist/#mirrorlist/g' /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-* && 
    sed -i 's|#baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org|baseurl=http://vault.centos.org|g' /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-* && 
    dnf check-update; dnf install -y ca-certificates python38 python38-devel git sudo which gcc-c++ mesa-libGL && 
    dnf clean all

RUN alternatives --set python /usr/bin/python3 && alternatives --install /usr/bin/pip pip /usr/bin/pip3 1

# create a non-root user
ARG USER_ID=1000
RUN useradd -m --no-log-init --system  --uid ${USER_ID} appuser -g wheel
RUN echo '%wheel ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL' >> /etc/sudoers
USER appuser
WORKDIR /home/appuser

ENV PATH="/home/appuser/.local/bin:${PATH}"

# install dependencies
# See https://pytorch.org/ for other options if you use a different version of CUDA
ARG CXX="g++"
RUN pip install --user tensorboard ninja cmake opencv-python opencv-contrib-python  # cmake from apt-get is too old
RUN pip install --user torch==1.10 torchvision==0.11.1 -f https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu111/torch_stable.html

RUN pip install --user 'git+https://github.com/facebookresearch/fvcore'
# install detectron2
RUN git clone https://github.com/facebookresearch/detectron2 detectron2_repo
# set FORCE_CUDA because during `docker build` cuda is not accessible
ENV FORCE_CUDA="1"
# This will by default build detectron2 for all common cuda architectures and take a lot more time,
# because inside `docker build`, there is no way to tell which architecture will be used.
ARG TORCH_CUDA_ARCH_LIST="Kepler;Kepler+Tesla;Maxwell;Maxwell+Tegra;Pascal;Volta;Turing"
ENV TORCH_CUDA_ARCH_LIST="${TORCH_CUDA_ARCH_LIST}"

RUN pip install --user -e detectron2_repo

# Set a fixed model cache directory.
ENV FVCORE_CACHE="/tmp"
WORKDIR /home/appuser/detectron2_repo

# run detectron2 under user "appuser":
# curl -o input.jpg http://images.cocodataset.org/val2017/000000439715.jpg
# python3 demo/demo.py  
    #--config-file configs/COCO-InstanceSegmentation/mask_rcnn_R_50_FPN_3x.yaml

    #--opts MODEL.WEIGHTS detectron2://COCO-InstanceSegmentation/mask_rcnn_R_50_FPN_3x/137849600/model_final_f10217.pkl

    Alternatively, this is untested as the following images don’t work on my machine (because I run arm64) so I can’t debug…

    In the original Dockerfile, changing your FROM line to this might resolve it, but I haven’t verified this (and the image mentioned in the issue (pytorch/pytorch:1.10.0-cuda11.3-cudnn8-devel) might work as well.
