How can I build only TensorFlow lite and not all TensorFlow from source?

问题

I am trying to use edgetpu USB accelerator with Intel ATOM single board computer and C++ API for real-time inference.

C++ API for edgetpu is based on TensorFlow lite C++ API. I need to include header files from tensorflow/lite directory (e.g. tensorflow/lite/interpreter.h).

My question is can I build tensorflow only with Lite (not other operations used for training )? if yes, how can I do it?

Because installing everything will take long time.

Assuming that you are using a Linux-based system, the following instruction should work:

• Clone the repository, then checkout to the stable release (currently r1.14):

  git clone https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow
  git checkout r1.14
  cd tensorflow
  

• Download dependencies:

  ./tensorflow/lite/tools/make/download_dependencies.sh
  

• Build it (by default it builds a Linux library, there are other options as well for other platforms):

  make -f ./tensorflow/lite/tools/make/Makefile
  

• Now, you'll need to link the built library in your project, add this to your makefile:

  TENSORFLOW_PATH = path/to/tensorflow/
  TFLITE_MAKE_PATH = $(TENSORFLOW_PATH)/tensorflow/lite/tools/make
  CLAGS += \
      -L$(TFLITE_MAKE_PATH)/gen/linux_x86_64/obj \
      -L$(TFLITE_MAKE_PATH)/gen/linux_x86_64/lib/ \
      -ltensorflow-lite -ldl
