Method to use uv to install MinerU with Python 3.12

[hongbo-miao]

Just share a way to use uv to install MinerU with Python 3.12. Succeed in Ubuntu.

pyproject.toml

[project]
name = "my-project"
version = "1.0.0"
requires-python = "~=3.12.0"
dependencies = [
  "detectron2",
  "magic-pdf[full]==0.10.6"
]

[tool.uv]
package = false
prerelease = "allow"

[tool.uv.sources]
detectron2 = { git = "https://github.com/facebookresearch/detectron2.git" }

Then you can install by

uv venv
uv pip install torch
uv pip install --no-build-isolation git+https://github.com/facebookresearch/detectron2.git
uv sync --dev

Notes:

• magic-pdf[full] has a dependency detectron2 which does not have wheel. Currently for uv to install package that needs --no-build-isolation, need run the command manually first, which is why we do uv pip install --no-build-isolation git+https://github.com/facebookresearch/detectron2.git.
• Since detectron2 didn't define the dependency torch, which is why we manually run uv pip install torch before detectron2.
• magic-pdf[full] 0.10.6 currently is using a pre-release dependency paddlepaddle 3.0.0b1 which is why we need prerelease = "allow", but in future, once magic-pdf relies on a formal release version of paddlepaddle, then no need prerelease = "allow".

Also, here is a full demo: https://github.com/hongbo-miao/hongbomiao.com/tree/88e41f1d06cd8dc75099c193327e210cbe3fca94/machine-learning/mineru

Hope it helps people save some time. ☺️

Thanks for this post! In addition, I had to install python3.12-dev (via apt) to successfully compile detectron2 on Ubuntu.
