Use `pip install deep-forest` will encounter an ERROR!

[Ninjagg]

Hi, I'm a newer for deep-forest. When I wanted to try this state-of-the-art method, I encountered an error at the installation step.

The code is shown bellow,

pip install deep-forest

Before installing this package, I created a new virtual environment with python=3.10 using Miniconda.
I have tried the pypi mirror (ustc and tsinghua) and set the http_proxy and https_proxy so as to get the package from https://pypi.org/.

It will raise the error information
"ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement deep-forest (from versions: none)".
"ERROR: No matching distribution found for deep-forest"

I also tried to install this package from GitHub according to the tutorial, but still failed.

Thanks for your time!

Emmm. I have resolved this question by setting python=3.8. Adding a kind reminder maybe help others.

We've opened a community fork of Deep Forest to support Python 3.10+ 🥳 mainly due to the fact that current maintainers are either on other avenues of research or too slowly maintaining the project for years; it has kindly been tried to support 3.10+ back in September 2025 but with CI and CD failing we decided to go ahead on a side-gig while making sure to acknowledge the primary authors’ amazing work on Deep Forest!

Note

PS: We made sure to mention that if a pull request is welcomed and that it will be treated as high priority we are more than welcome to do that and remove the community fork, but we've waited too long.
