NOTICE: TensorBoard 1.6.0+ has moved to the tensorboard
package name on PyPI:
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/tensorboard. Only bugfix updates on 1.5.x will be
applied to the old package name (tensorflow-tensorboard
). To upgrade to
TensorBoard 1.6.0+ we suggest you first pip uninstall tensorflow-tensorboard
before doing pip install tensorboard
. See "Known Issues" below if you run into
problems using TensorBoard after upgrading.
The 1.6 minor series tracks TensorFlow 1.6.
- (Beta) New Profile dashboard, which provides a suite of tools for inspecting TPU performance. See for details: https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorboard/tree/1.6/tensorboard/plugins/profile
- (Alpha) New Debugger dashboard, which provides a visual interface to
tfdbg
, the TensorFlow debugger. See for details: https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorboard/tree/1.6/tensorboard/plugins/debugger
- Package
tensorboard
is installed but command and/or module are missing or have the wrong version - this may be due to conflicts with other packages that providetensorboard
scripts or modules. Please uninstall all such packages includingtensorboard
,tensorflow-tensorboard
andtb-nightly
and then reinstalltensorboard
. - Bazel 0.9.0+ required to build from source - this change was necessary in order to add support for building at Bazel 0.10.0 and above. Please update Bazel.
NOTICE: TensorBoard 1.6.0+ will move to the tensorboard
package name on PyPI,
instead of using tensorflow-tensorboard
. Only bugfix updates on 1.5.x will be
applied to the old package name. To upgrade to TensorBoard 1.6.0+ please first
pip uninstall tensorflow-tensorboard
before doing pip install tensorboard
.
