Yes, absolutely! You can install Python packages in Google Colab without internet access by uploading .whl (wheel) files to your Google Drive and referencing them directly.
This is useful if you want to work offline or avoid pip install from the internet.
✅ Step-by-Step: Install .whl Files from Google Drive in Colab
Step 1: Upload .whl Files to Google Drive
-
Upload the required
.whlfiles (e.g.,gpt4all-1.0.0-py3-none-any.whl, etc.) into a folder like:bash/My Drive/packages/
Step 2: Mount Google Drive in Colab
pythonfrom google.colab import drive
drive.mount('/content/drive')
After mounting, your files can be accessed at:
bash/content/drive/My Drive/packages/
Step 3: Install from the .whl File
Use pip to install from the local .whl file path:
python!pip install /content/drive/My\ Drive/packages/gpt4all-1.0.0-py3-none-any.whl
✅ If the package has dependencies, you’ll also need to upload those .whl files and install them similarly (order matters).
Step 4: Use the Package in Python Code
pythonfrom gpt4all import GPT4All
model_path = "/content/drive/My Drive/models/ggml-gpt4all-j-v1.3-groovy.bin"
model = GPT4All(model_path)
with model.chat_session() as session:
prompt = input("Ask something: ")
response = session.prompt(prompt)
print("GPT:", response)
📝 Notes
-
All
.whlfiles must be compatible with your Python version (e.g., 3.10 or 3.11). -
You can also install multiple
.whlfiles in one command:python!pip install /content/drive/My\ Drive/packages/*.whl -
Some
.whlfiles may depend onC++or system binaries — those won’t work in Colab without internet unless compiled into the.whl.
