TensorflowPod

Build Tensorflow for iOS on macOS

• [Prerequsite] Install xcode cli tools

  $ xcode-select --install
  

• [Prerequsite] Install automake and libtool

  $ brew install automake libtool
  

• Clone TensorFlow repository

  $ cd ~/Code
  $ git clone https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/
  

• Clone TensorflowPod repository

  $ cd ~/Code
  $ git clone https://github.com/rainbean/TensorflowPod
  

• Compile TensorFlow

  $ cd ~/Code/tensorflow
  $ tensorflow/contrib/makefile/build_all_ios.sh
  

• Pack necessary header and static library

  $ cd ~/Code/tensorflow
  $ ~/Code/TensorflowPod/pack.sh
  $ ls tensorflow.tar.gz
  

Integrate TensorFlow as Pod

• [Prerequsite] Install Cocoapods

  sudo gem install cocoapods
  

• Create or add pod into your project Podfile, which should look like

  target 'DemoApp' do
      # Comment the next line if you're not using Swift and don't want to use dynamic frameworks
      use_frameworks!
  
      # Pods for DemoApp
      pod 'TensorflowPod', :podspec => 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rainbean/TensorflowPod/master/TensorflowPod.podspec'
  
  end
  

• Install Pod

  pod install
  

• Follow official demo app to develop, link

  #include "google/protobuf/message_lite.h"
  #include "tensorflow/core/framework/tensor.h"
  #include "tensorflow/core/public/session.h"
  
  tensorflow::GraphDef graph;
  ...
