rattler-server: resolve conda envs on the fly

rattler-server is a single-purpose tool to resolve conda environments with a HTTP endpoint. The tool uses crates from the lower-level rattler libraries.

If you want to learn more, join our Discord!.

Features:

  • Written in Rust, memory safe and fast!
  • Uses axum for async, parallel request execution
  • Fast caching with libsolv and configurable cache lifetime
  • Uses the same package resolve algorithms as mamba

The CLI interface

If you clone this repository, you can run rattler-server by using

# run rattler-server on default port 3000
cargo run

# or to run on another port (3322)
cargo run -- -p 3322

The full help text is as follows:

Usage: rattler-server [OPTIONS]

Options:
  -p <PORT>
          The port at which the server should listen [env: RATTLER_SERVER_PORT=] [default: 3000]
  -c <CONCURRENT_REPODATA_DOWNLOADS_PER_REQUEST>
          The amount of concurrent downloads of repodata.json files, during a single request. JSON downloads are very CPU-intensive, because they require parsing huge JSON bodies [env: RATTLER_SERVER_PORT_CONCURRENT_DOWNLOADS=] [default: 1]
  -r <REPODATA_CACHE_EXPIRATION_SECONDS>
          The amount of seconds after which a cached repodata.json expires, defaults to 30 minutes [env: RATTLER_SERVER_CACHE_EXPIRATION_SECONDS=] [default: 1800]
  -h, --help
          Print help

The endpoints

It has a single endpoint (/solve) that accepts HTTP POST requests with the following JSON content:

{
  "specs": [
    "cudnn",
    "tensorflow-gpu"
  ],
  "virtual_packages": ["__glibc=2.5=0", "__cuda=11=0"],
  "channels": [
    "conda-forge"
  ],
  "platform": "linux-64"
}

If successful, the server will reply a HTTP 200 Response with the solved, topologically sorted dependencies for that environment as JSON, e.g.:

{
  "packages": [
    {
      "name": "_libgcc_mutex",
      "version": "0.1",

    },
    // ... and many more
  ]
}

If you ask for an unsolvable environment (e.g. by using an old __glibc=1.0=0 virtual package), a HTTP 409 response with the following content is returned:

{
  "error_kind": "solver",
  "message": "no solution found for the specified dependencies",
  "additional_info": [
    "nothing provides __glibc >=2.17,<3.0.a0 needed by cudnn-8.2.0.53-h86fa8c9_0"
  ]
}
