[dependencies] Upgrade ray to 2.48.0 by erictang000 · Pull Request #106 · NovaSky-AI/SkyRL

What does this PR do

Upgrades ray to 2.48.0, which allows us to remove the pip install vllm in the Dockerfile as a fallback for when uv + vllm does not resolve dependencies with the vllm + ray backend correctly.

We leave the previous Dockerfile in docker/Dockerfile.ray244 for backwards compatibility

 We use `uv <https://docs.astral.sh/uv/>`_ to manage dependencies. We also make use of the `uv` and `ray` integration to manage dependencies for ray workers. 

-If you're running on an existing Ray cluster, make sure to use Ray 2.44.0 and Python 3.12.
+If you're running on an existing Ray cluster, make sure to use Ray 2.48.0 and Python 3.12.


This should actually link to the appropriate section on "Running on an existing Ray cluster" . Can you fix this here?

updated!

Also updated the running on an existing ray cluster section since we no longer include the pip install vllm in the dockerfile, and if we're saying to use ray>=2.44.0, then that should be added somewhere

….48.0

docker/Dockerfile

-
-# NOTE: vllm installation in base environment is needed for uv + vLLM to work
-RUN pip install vllm==0.9.2 --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu128 \
-    && pip install ray==2.44.0 \
-    && rm -rf ~/.cache/pip


One of the friction points with a removal right now is that people with existing ray clusters with ray < 2.48 will be affected - it would make skyrl harder to run and we are pretty much forcing them to upgrade. Could we provide another Dockerfile "Dockerfile.ray244" as an example Dockerfile for older ray version, and include the vllm installation there?

The "Dockerfile.ray244" file should have the following :

# NOTE: vllm installation in base environment is needed for uv + vLLM to work RUN pip install vllm==0.9.2 --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu128 \ && pip install ray==2.44.0 omegaconf==2.3.0 loguru==0.7.3 \ && rm -rf ~/.cache/pip RUN pip install pyarrow==20.0.0 jaxtyping==0.3.2 && rm -rf ~/.cache/pip

skyrl-train/docs/getting-started/installation.rst

Can the doc reference the new Dockerfile.ray244 file in "Running on an existing Ray cluster"? Also we should have two sections for ray 2.48 and above and the ray less than 2.48 so that it's a bit more clear. As in for ray greater than 2.48 it should be like no change and just the uv command

skyrl-train/docs/getting-started/installation.rst

+Ray >= 2.48.0
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+We recommend using Ray version 2.48.0 and above for the best experience. In this case, you can simply use the ``uv run`` command to get training started.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    uv run -m skyrl_train.entrypoints.main_base ...


Maybe we should future proof this? My original intention was to say that for ray>=2.48, all they need is to use uv run --with:

uv run .... --with ray==2.xx.yy

But for ray less than that, you need the vLLM stuff

Wdyt?

makes sense, updated

….48.0

Thanks! WE can revisit installation docs once there's a release after 2.48

The dynamic sampling strategy can be configured as below: ```yaml # dynamic sampling parameters dynamic_sampling: type: null # filter (DAPO), replace (POLARIS/WebSailor), or null max_sample_batches: 30 # sample at most this many batches before stopping, -1 to sample forever min_replace_ratio: 0.3 # minimum proportion of good samples with which to replace bad samples (for replace strategy only) ``` This PR also adds a docs page describing how to enable all DAPO features, and adds an example GSM8K script where all these features are used. ## Minor Changes Some minor changes to make this dynamic sampling implementation clean: - the utils `Timer` class now updates the dict instead of overwriting in order to correctly track generation time w/ dynamic sampling, which means we need to make sure to reset `all_timings` in any trainer - The use of `self.weights_manager` is a little tricky for the dynamic sampling - introduced the the `ConditionalWeightsManager` to make the added code in the training loop as clean as possible ## Example runs <img width="413" height="264" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/072f716a-3632-42bb-a5f7-5f9d6064bd93" /> Generation time for dapo style filtering increases as the training run goes on, while it is stable for polaris and the baseline. <img width="419" height="265" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/887df550-e4b9-4623-b578-b4809a9f403f" /> We can see that the training pass @ n metric is 1 for both polaris and dapo style filtering as expected. <img width="421" height="259" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/bb63af77-1fbb-4d89-9216-b028f1551ea7" /> For GSM8k + Qwen 1.5B, the sampling strategy (as well as the full DAPO run) results in minimal gains - need larger models/harder dataset to test more fully DAPO sampling Example Run: ```bash (skyrl_entrypoint pid=222117) 2025-08-04 23:13:13.439 | INFO | skyrl_train.trainer:train:245 - Started: 'step' (skyrl_entrypoint pid=222117) 2025-08-04 23:13:13.737 | INFO | skyrl_train.weights_manager:__enter__:76 - Started: 'sync_weights_to_inference_engines' (skyrl_entrypoint pid=222117) 2025-08-04 23:13:16.401 | INFO | skyrl_train.weights_manager:__enter__:76 - Finished: 'sync_weights_to_inference_engines', time cost: 2.66s (skyrl_entrypoint pid=222117) 2025-08-04 23:13:16.401 | INFO | skyrl_train.weights_manager:__enter__:80 - Started: 'offload_policy_model_to_cpu' (skyrl_entrypoint pid=222117) 2025-08-04 23:13:16.842 | INFO | skyrl_train.weights_manager:__enter__:80 - Finished: 'offload_policy_model_to_cpu', time cost: 0.44s (skyrl_entrypoint pid=222117) 2025-08-04 23:13:16.888 | INFO | skyrl_train.trainer:train:261 - Started: 'generate' (AsyncVLLMInferenceEngine pid=223856) INFO 08-04 23:13:13 [executor_base.py:227] It took 0.243244 seconds to wake up tags ['weights'].
