stensorflow.g8 - Scala Native TensorFlow template

Getting started with TensorFlow for Scala Native using a sbt template.

The current API is at the C interoperability level which means the coding will be pretty low level.

Pre-requisites

You must install sbt, Scala Native requirements, and the Tensorflow library.

• Java - JDK 17 recommended (Used for sbt and Scala Native build)
• sbt - https://www.scala-sbt.org/download.html
• clang / llvm - https://scala-native.org/en/latest/user/setup.html#installing-clang-and-runtime-dependencies
• Tensorflow - https://github.com/ekrich/stensorflow#tensorflow-library

Procedure

Use the following directions to create a project directory tf-start in the current directory. It is recommended that you start in your workspace or the place you want the project. You can use any name in place of tf-start but then substitute that name in the directions that follow:

 % sbt new ekrich/stensorflow.g8
 [info] welcome to sbt 1.5.5 (Azul Systems, Inc. Java 11.0.15)
[info] set current project to new (in build file:/private/var/folders/f8/vpd97qv1621_b7zt0z957cjc0000gn/T/sbt_28e22874/new/)

A minimal project that uses stensorflow

name [Scala Native TensorFlow Project]: tf-start

Template applied in /some/directory/./tf-start

% cd tf-start
% sbt
sbt:root> run
sbt:root> test

Now you are off and running so have fun!
