Comet.ml Python API¶

Comet.ml has an extensive interface to all of your data using a REST API through Comet.ml endpoints. Now, you can access this information easily through the Comet.ml Python SDK. Requires version comet_ml version 3.0.0 or greater.

Setup¶

To install comet_ml:

In [ ]:

%pip install comet_ml --quiet

To run the following experiments, you'll need to set your COMET_API_KEY. The easiest way to to this is to use the comet_ml.init() function:

In [ ]:

import comet_ml

comet_ml.init()

Quick Overview¶

To access the Python API through the Comet.ml SDK, you will need to make an API() instance.

Note: this is a new interface.

What's new?¶

The new API:

is faster, having more items cached
allows setting and logging more items
APIExperiment now works similarly to Experiment, ExistingExperiment, and OfflineExperiment
has a consistent interface

Let's try it out!

First, we import the API class and other libraries we will need. Note that this is a new interface and comes from comet_ml.api:

In [1]:

from comet_ml import API
import comet_ml

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
%matplotlib inline

and create the API instance:

In [2]:

comet_api = API()

Using the comet_api instance, you can get the name of your workspaces:

In [3]:

comet_api.get()

Out[3]:

['sampleworkspace', 'cometpublic']

If you reference your workspace by name using comet_api.get(WORKSPACE_NAME), you'll see your projects:

In [4]:

print(comet_api.get("cometpublic"))

['caffe2', 'ludwig', 'comet-sagemaker', 'fasttext', 'comet-notebooks', 'shap', 'parameter-space-exploration', 'comet-examples', 'fastai', '3d-histograms', 'pyspark-example', 'general', 'keras-example', 'home-credit']

Or, get the projects from another user or shared workspace:

In [5]:

comet_api.get("testuser")

Out[5]:

['mnist']

Using the same method, you can refer to a project by name and get all of the experiments in a project:

In [6]:

comet_api.get("cometpublic", "fasttext")

Out[6]:

[<APIExperiment 'cometpublic/fasttext/18e88395f6c44ffc9930c5323935f5d9'>,

Or, using the slash delimiter:

comet_api.get("cometpublic/fasttext")

 <APIExperiment 'cometpublic/fasttext/e64c5915920f481bab8f4cb4dbd615be'>]

And one more level, get an APIExperiment object using the Experiment's ID:

In [8]:

comet_api.get("cometpublic", "fasttext", 'e64c5915920f481bab8f4cb4dbd615be')

Out[8]:

<APIExperiment 'cometpublic/fasttext/e64c5915920f481bab8f4cb4dbd615be'>

Or, again using the slash shorthand:

In [9]:

comet_api.get("cometpublic/fasttext/e64c5915920f481bab8f4cb4dbd615be")

Out[9]:

<APIExperiment 'cometpublic/fasttext/e64c5915920f481bab8f4cb4dbd615be'>

Let's get an experiment and save it to a variable named exp:

In [10]:

exp = comet_api.get("cometpublic/fasttext/e64c5915920f481bab8f4cb4dbd615be")

In [11]:

exp

Out[11]:

<APIExperiment 'cometpublic/fasttext/e64c5915920f481bab8f4cb4dbd615be'>

There are a number of items you get and set from the APIExperiment instance. For a complete reference, see: https://www.comet.ml/docs/python-sdk/API/

For example, we can explore the other property, which shows items saved with Experiment.log_other(NAME, VALUE):

In [12]:

exp.get_others_summary()

Out[12]:

[{'name': 'Name',
  'valueMax': 'last',
  'valueMin': 'last',
  'valueCurrent': 'last'},
 {'name': 'storage_size_bytes',
  'valueMax': '0',
  'valueMin': '0',
  'valueCurrent': '0',
  'timestampMax': 1574708415277,
  'timestampMin': 1574708415277,
  'timestampCurrent': 1574708415277},
 {'name': 'trainable_params',
  'valueMax': '376560',
  'valueMin': '376560',
  'valueCurrent': '376560',
  'timestampMax': 1529089066169,
  'timestampMin': 1529089066169,
  'timestampCurrent': 1529089066169}]

In this example, we see that the experiment has the Name "last". We can use Name to also look up experiments:

In [13]:

exp = comet_api.get("cometpublic/fasttext/last")
exp.id, exp.name

Out[13]:

('e64c5915920f481bab8f4cb4dbd615be', 'last')

Perhaps one of the most useful abilities for the Python API is to access your experiment's data in order to create a variation of a plot. To access the raw metric data, use the .get_metrics() method of the APIExperiment:

In [14]:

len(exp.get_metrics())

Out[14]:

We see here were over 2800 metrics logged during the training of this experiment. We can get the first using indexing with an integer:

In [15]:

exp.get_metrics()[0]

Out[15]:

{'metricName': 'val_acc',
 'metricValue': '0.9832226913061168',
 'timestamp': 1529089066713,
 'step': 69,
 'epoch': None,
 'runContext': None,
 'offset': 314}

That shows that the "acc" (accuracy) metric had a value of about 0.5 at step 1 of the experiment.

We can also filter on a single metric name, like so:

In [16]:

acc_metrics = exp.get_metrics("acc")

In [17]:

len(acc_metrics)

Out[17]:

In [18]:

acc_metrics[0]

Out[18]:

{'metricName': 'acc',
 'metricValue': '0.5003255009651184',
 'timestamp': 1529089066219,
 'step': 1,
 'epoch': None,
 'runContext': None,
 'offset': 29}

Therefore, exp.get_metrics("acc") gives us the dictionary for all "acc" items. We can then easily use Python's built in zip and matplotlib to plot these values:

In [19]:

steps_acc = [(m["step"], float(m["metricValue"])) for m in acc_metrics]

This breaks up the data into (step, value) pairs:

In [20]:

steps_acc[0]

Out[20]:

(1, 0.5003255009651184)

A little Python trick to separate the steps from the accuracies so we can easily use matplotlib:

In [21]:

steps, acc = zip(*steps_acc[:100]) # just the first 100 for now

In [22]:

plt.plot(steps, acc);

That's it for a quick overview. Now let's look in detail at each component.

Workspaces¶

comet_api.get() reports your workspace names:

In [23]:

comet_api.get()

Out[23]:

['sampleworkspace', 'cometpublic']

You can also interate over those names:

In [24]:

for workspace in comet_api.get():
    print(workspace)

sampleworkspace
cometpublic

As we saw above, you can also access other public workspaces as well:

In [25]:

comet_api.get("testuser")

Out[25]:

['mnist']

Projects¶

Under get(WORKSPACE_NAME), you'll find the projects:

In [26]:

comet_api.get("cometpublic")

Out[26]:

['caffe2',
 'ludwig',
 'comet-sagemaker',
 'fasttext',
 'comet-notebooks',
 'shap',
 'parameter-space-exploration',
 'comet-examples',
 'fastai',
 '3d-histograms',
 'pyspark-example',
 'general',
 'keras-example',
 'home-credit']

In [27]:

project = comet_api.get("cometpublic", "comet-notebooks")
## OR:
#project = comet_api.get("cometpublic/comet-notebooks")

If you just print out, or iterate over a project, you get access to the experiments:

In [28]:

project

Out[28]:

[<APIExperiment 'cometpublic/comet-notebooks/7092a5e4c362453fb0b3f06785a1d30c'>,
 <APIExperiment 'cometpublic/comet-notebooks/d21f94a1c71841d2961da1e6ddb5ab20'>]

In [29]:

project[0].id, project[0].name

Out[29]:

('7092a5e4c362453fb0b3f06785a1d30c', None)

In [30]:

project[1].id, project[1].name

Out[30]:

('d21f94a1c71841d2961da1e6ddb5ab20', 'example 001')

Experiments¶

Continuing with the dictionary-like access, you can see and iterate over the experiment ids:

In [31]:

comet_api.get("cometpublic", "comet-notebooks")

Out[31]:

[<APIExperiment 'cometpublic/comet-notebooks/7092a5e4c362453fb0b3f06785a1d30c'>,
 <APIExperiment 'cometpublic/comet-notebooks/d21f94a1c71841d2961da1e6ddb5ab20'>]

In [32]:

exp = comet_api.get("cometpublic", "comet-notebooks", 'd21f94a1c71841d2961da1e6ddb5ab20')
## OR
# exp = comet_api.get("cometpublic/comet-notebooks/d21f94a1c71841d2961da1e6ddb5ab20")
exp

Out[32]:

<APIExperiment 'cometpublic/comet-notebooks/d21f94a1c71841d2961da1e6ddb5ab20'>

In [33]:

exp = comet_api.get("cometpublic", "comet-notebooks", 'example 001')
## OR
## exp = comet_api.get("cometpublic/comet-notebooks/example 001")
exp

Out[33]:

<APIExperiment 'cometpublic/comet-notebooks/d21f94a1c71841d2961da1e6ddb5ab20'>

Regular Expression Experiment Name Matching¶

You can also use regular expressions as the name for the experiment:

In [34]:

comet_api.get_experiments("cometpublic", "comet-notebooks", "example.*")

Out[34]:

[<APIExperiment 'cometpublic/comet-notebooks/d21f94a1c71841d2961da1e6ddb5ab20'>]

Query API¶

The Python API provides programmatic access to the same query system in the web UI. There are 5 types of items that you can query:

Metric: items logged with log_metric()
Metadata: items logged by the system
Other: items logged with log_other()
Parameter: items logged with log_parameter()
Tag: items logged with add_tags()

To use these, you first need to import them:

In [36]:

from comet_ml.api import Metric, Metadata, Other, Parameter, Tag

You can then use these to build a query expression, like so:

In [37]:

comet_api.query("cometpublic", "general", Parameter("max_iter") == 100)

Out[37]:

[<APIExperiment 'cometpublic/general/4d4fba0f6bac4420bb5948e41015c114'>,
 <APIExperiment 'cometpublic/general/be44937e416b4b62be79ee2e7c0c3c4e'>]

The API.query() method takes the following args:

workspace: String, the name of the workspace
project_name: String, the name of the project
query: a query expression (see below)
archived: (optional boolean), query the archived experiments if True

A query is of the form:

((QUERY-VARIABLE OPERATOR VALUE) & ...)

# or:

(QUERY-VARIABLE.METHOD(VALUE) & ...)

where:

QUERY-VARIABLE is Metric(NAME), Parameter(NAME), Other(NAME), Metadata(NAME), or Tag(VALUE).
OPERATOR is any of the standard mathematical operators ==, <=, >=, !=, <, >.
METHOD is between(), contains(), startswith(), or endswith().

You may also place the bitwise ~ not operator in front of an expression which means to invert the expression. Use & to combine additional criteria. Currently, | (bitwise or) is not supported.

VALUE can be any query type, includeing string, boolean, double, datetime, or timenumber (number of seconds). None and "" are special values that mean NULL and EMPTY, respectively. Use API.get_project_variables(WORKSPACE, PROJECT_NAME) to see query variables and types for a project.

When using datetime, be aware that the backend is using UTC datetimes. If you do not receive the correct experiments via a datetime query, please check with the web UI query builder to verify timezone of the server.

query() returns a list of matching APIExperiments().

Examples:

# Find all experiments that have an acc metric value > .98:
>>> api.query("workspace", "project", Metric("acc") > .98)
[APIExperiment(), ...]

# Find all experiments that have a loss metric < .1 and
# a learning_rate parameter value >= 0.3:
>>> loss = Metric("loss")
>>> lr = Parameter("learning_rate")
>>> query = ((loss < .1) & (lr >= 0.3))
>>> api.query("workspace", "project", query)
[APIExperiment(), ...]

# Find all of the experiments tagged "My simple tag":
>>> tagged = Metric("My simple tag")
>>> api.query("workspace", "project", tagged)
[APIExperiment(), ...]

# Find all experiments started before Sept 24, 2019 at 5:00am:
>>> q = Metadata("start_server_timestamp") < datetime(2019, 9, 24, 5)
>>> api.query("workspace", "project", q)
[APIExperiment(), ...]

# Find all experiments lasting more that 2 minutes (in seconds):
>>> q = Metadata("duration") > (2 * 60)
>>> api.query("workspace", "project", q)
[APIExperiment(), ...]

Notes:

Use ~ for not on any expression
Use ~QUERY-VARIABLE.between(2,3) for values not between 2 and 3
Use (QUERY-VARIABLE == True) for truth
Use (QUERY-VARIABLE == False) for not true
Use (QUERY-VARIABLE == None) for testing null
Use (QUERY-VARIABLE != None) or ~(QUERY-VARIABLE == None) for testing not null
Use (QUERY-VARIABLE == "") for testing empty
Use (QUERY-VARIABLE != "") or ~(QUERY-VARIABLE == "") for testing not empty
Use Python's datetime(YEAR, MONTH, DAY, HOUR, MINUTE, SECONDS) for comparing datetimes, like Metadata("start_server_timestamp") or Metadata("end_server_timestamp")
Use seconds for comparing timenumbers, like Metadata("duration")
Use API.get_project_variables(WORKSPACE, PROJECT_NAME) to see query variables and types.

Do not use 'and', 'or', 'not', 'is', or 'in'. These are logical operators and you must use mathematical operators for queries. For example, always use '==' where you might usually use 'is'.

How can you know what query variables are available for a project? Use API.get_query_variables(WORKSPACE, PROJECT_NAME):

In [38]:

vars = comet_api.get_query_variables("cometpublic", "general")

In [39]:

vars

Experiment Properties¶

In this brief dictionary representation, you will see that get_others_summary(), get_metrics_summary() and get_parameters_summary() give summary data for each item:

In [40]:

exp.get_parameters_summary()

 'stepCurrent': 0}

You can see more information on the methods and propeties on an APIExperiment instance here: https://www.comet.ml/docs/python-sdk/APIExperiment/

Just like when creating and logging data, you can also use the .display() method to show the Comet.ml page for that experiment right in the notebook:

In [43]:

exp.display()

Logging data¶

With this version of the API, you can now easily log, set, and add data to an experiment, either one that you just created, or one that existed previously.

To create a new APIExperiment, you can (assuming that your API key, workspace, and project name have been set in a Comet configure file):

from comet_ml.api import APIExperiment
api_experiment = APIExperiment()

If you have not set your API key, workspace, and project name, you can pass any and all to the constructor:

from comet_ml.api import APIExperiment
api_experiment = APIExperiment(api_key="MY-KEY", 
                               workspace="MY-WORKSPACE",
                               project_name="MY-PROJECT")

To create an APIExperiment from a previously-made experiment, you can (assuming that your keys have been set):

from comet_ml.api import APIExperiment
api_experiment = APIExperiment(previous_experiment="7364746746743746") # previous experiment key or name

Once you have an APIExperiment, you can log, set, and add items to the experiment. You can use any of the following methods:

api_experiment.log_output(lines, context=None, stderr=False)
api_experiment.log_other(key, value)
api_experiment.log_parameter(parameter, value, step=None)
api_experiment.log_metric(metric, value, step=None)
api_experiment.log_html(html, overwrite=False)
api_experiment.log_asset(filename, step=None, overwrite=None, context=None)
api_experiment.log_image(filename, image_name=None, step=None, overwrite=None, context=None)
api_experiment.add_tags(tags)
api_experiment.set_code(code)
api_experiment.set_model_graph(graph)
api_experiment.set_os_packages(os_packages)
api_experiment.set_start_time(start_server_timestamp)
api_experiment.set_end_time(end_server_timestamp)

Existing Experiments¶

For many aspects of an experiment, you can log them with the Python API. However, to get the full power of the streaming Experiment interface, you can create an ExistingExperiment.

First, we can look up an experiment using any of the methods outlined here:

In [44]:

api_experiment = comet_api.get("cometpublic", "comet-notebooks", 'example 001')

Then, we can use the APIExperiment.id property to make an ExistingExperiment:

In [45]:

existing_experiment = comet_ml.ExistingExperiment(previous_experiment=api_experiment.id)

COMET INFO: Experiment is live on comet.ml https://www.comet.ml/cometpublic/comet-notebooks/d21f94a1c71841d2961da1e6ddb5ab20

You can make changes to the saved data using the existing experiment:

https://www.comet.ml/docs/python-sdk/ExistingExperiment/

In [46]:

existing_experiment.end()

Examples¶

As seen above, you can use the Query API that allows highly efficient queries of your data. However, you can also write your own query of sorts if you need to go beyond what the Query API provides.

Here is some code that prints out the names of experiments that have associated HTML (this can take a long time if you have many experiments):

In [47]:

%%time
workspace = "dsblank"
found = False
for project in comet_api.get(workspace):
    if found:
        break
    print("    processing project", project, "...")
    print("        processing experiment", exp.id, end="")
    for exp in comet_api.get(workspace, project):
        print(".", end="")
        if exp.get_html() != None:
            print("\nFound html in %s!" % exp.url)
            found = True
            break
    print()

    processing project release-2-0-12c ...
        processing experiment d21f94a1c71841d2961da1e6ddb5ab20.

Here is a function that will find the first experiment that has associated images:

In [48]:

def find_image():
    for workspace in comet_api.get():
        for project in comet_api.get(workspace):
            for exp in comet_api.get(workspace, project):
                if exp.get_asset_list(asset_type="image") != []:
                    return exp

In [49]:

find_image()

Out[49]:

<APIExperiment 'cometpublic/ludwig/02a0ed902ce2481fb6e2fc9009ee593c'>

Now, we get the experiment API and explore the APIExperiment.get_asset_list() method:

In [50]:

comet_api.get('cometpublic/ludwig/02a0ed902ce2481fb6e2fc9009ee593c').get_asset_list(asset_type="image")

Out[50]:

We can get a URL for the image, and display it in the notebook:

In [51]:

asset_list = comet_api.get('cometpublic/ludwig/02a0ed902ce2481fb6e2fc9009ee593c').get_asset_list(asset_type="image")
url = asset_list[0]["link"]
url

Out[51]:

In [52]:

from IPython.display import Image

In [53]:

Image(url=url)

Out[53]:

Now, let's write a short program that will find the run with the best accuracy given a workspace/project string:

Can we get all of the hidden_size parameter values for the experiments in dsblank/pytorch?

In [54]:

[[p["valueCurrent"] for p in exp.get_parameters_summary()] for exp in comet_api.get("dsblank/pytorch")]

Out[54]:

Assets¶

To get an asset, you need to get the asset_id. You can see all of the assets related to a project using the APIExperiment.get_asset_list():

In [57]:

def find_asset(workspaces):
    for ws in workspaces or comet_api.get():
        for pj in comet_api.get(ws):
            for exp in comet_api.get(ws, pj):
                if exp.get_asset_list() != []:
                    return (exp, exp.get_asset_list())
exp, elist = find_asset(["cometpublic"])

In [58]:

exp

Out[58]:

<APIExperiment 'cometpublic/ludwig/02a0ed902ce2481fb6e2fc9009ee593c'>

In [59]:

len(elist)

Out[59]:

From there, you can use the APIExperiment.get_asset(asset_id) method to get the asset.

In [60]:

description = exp.get_asset("0b256dc8858f4fbeb09228bc96074341", return_type="json")
