"""Executes training.
When a SIGINT signal is received (e.g. through Ctrl+C), the tuning run
will gracefully shut down and checkpoint the latest experiment state.
Sending SIGINT again (or SIGKILL/SIGTERM instead) will skip this step.
Many aspects of Tune, such as the frequency of global checkpointing,
maximum pending placement group trials and the path of the result
directory be configured through environment variables. Refer to
:ref:`tune-env-vars` for a list of environment variables available.
Examples:
.. code-block:: python
# Run 10 trials (each trial is one instance of a Trainable). Tune runs
# in parallel and automatically determines concurrency.
tune.run(trainable, num_samples=10)
# Run 1 trial, stop when trial has reached 10 iterations
tune.run(my_trainable, stop={"training_iteration": 10})
# automatically retry failed trials up to 3 times
tune.run(my_trainable, stop={"training_iteration": 10}, max_failures=3)
# Run 1 trial, search over hyperparameters, stop after 10 iterations.
space = {"lr": tune.uniform(0, 1), "momentum": tune.uniform(0, 1)}
tune.run(my_trainable, config=space, stop={"training_iteration": 10})
# Resumes training if a previous machine crashed
tune.run(my_trainable, config=space,
local_dir=<path/to/dir>, resume=True)
# Rerun ONLY failed trials after an experiment is finished.
tune.run(my_trainable, config=space,
local_dir=<path/to/dir>, resume="ERRORED_ONLY")
Args:
run_or_experiment (function | class | str | :class:`Experiment`): If
function|class|str, this is the algorithm or model to train.
This may refer to the name of a built-on algorithm
(e.g. RLLib's DQN or PPO), a user-defined trainable
function or class, or the string identifier of a
trainable function or class registered in the tune registry.
If Experiment, then Tune will execute training based on
Experiment.spec. If you want to pass in a Python lambda, you
will need to first register the function:
``tune.register_trainable("lambda_id", lambda x: ...)``. You can
then use ``tune.run("lambda_id")``.
metric (str): Metric to optimize. This metric should be reported
with `tune.report()`. If set, will be passed to the search
algorithm and scheduler.
mode (str): Must be one of [min, max]. Determines whether objective is
minimizing or maximizing the metric attribute. If set, will be
passed to the search algorithm and scheduler.
name (str): Name of experiment.
stop (dict | callable | :class:`Stopper`): Stopping criteria. If dict,
the keys may be any field in the return result of 'train()',
whichever is reached first. If function, it must take (trial_id,
result) as arguments and return a boolean (True if trial should be
stopped, False otherwise). This can also be a subclass of
``ray.tune.Stopper``, which allows users to implement
custom experiment-wide stopping (i.e., stopping an entire Tune
run based on some time constraint).
time_budget_s (int|float|datetime.timedelta): Global time budget in
seconds after which all trials are stopped. Can also be a
``datetime.timedelta`` object.
config (dict): Algorithm-specific configuration for Tune variant
generation (e.g. env, hyperparams). Defaults to empty dict.
Custom search algorithms may ignore this.
resources_per_trial (dict|PlacementGroupFactory): Machine resources
to allocate per trial, e.g. ``{"cpu": 64, "gpu": 8}``.
Note that GPUs will not be assigned unless you specify them here.
Defaults to 1 CPU and 0 GPUs in
``Trainable.default_resource_request()``. This can also
be a PlacementGroupFactory object wrapping arguments to create a
per-trial placement group.
num_samples (int): Number of times to sample from the
hyperparameter space. Defaults to 1. If `grid_search` is
provided as an argument, the grid will be repeated
`num_samples` of times. If this is -1, (virtually) infinite
samples are generated until a stopping condition is met.
local_dir (str): Local dir to save training results to.
Defaults to ``~/ray_results``.
search_alg (Searcher|SearchAlgorithm|str): Search algorithm for
optimization. You can also use the name of the algorithm.
scheduler (TrialScheduler|str): Scheduler for executing
the experiment. Choose among FIFO (default), MedianStopping,
AsyncHyperBand, HyperBand and PopulationBasedTraining. Refer to
ray.tune.schedulers for more options. You can also use the
name of the scheduler.
keep_checkpoints_num (int): Number of checkpoints to keep. A value of
`None` keeps all checkpoints. Defaults to `None`. If set, need
to provide `checkpoint_score_attr`.
checkpoint_score_attr (str): Specifies by which attribute to rank the
best checkpoint. Default is increasing order. If attribute starts
with `min-` it will rank attribute in decreasing order, i.e.
`min-validation_loss`.
checkpoint_freq (int): How many training iterations between
checkpoints. A value of 0 (default) disables checkpointing.
This has no effect when using the Functional Training API.
checkpoint_at_end (bool): Whether to checkpoint at the end of the
experiment regardless of the checkpoint_freq. Default is False.
This has no effect when using the Functional Training API.
verbose (Union[int, Verbosity]): 0, 1, 2, or 3. Verbosity mode.
0 = silent, 1 = only status updates, 2 = status and brief trial
results, 3 = status and detailed trial results. Defaults to 3.
progress_reporter (ProgressReporter): Progress reporter for reporting
intermediate experiment progress. Defaults to CLIReporter if
running in command-line, or JupyterNotebookReporter if running in
a Jupyter notebook.
log_to_file (bool|str|Sequence): Log stdout and stderr to files in
Tune's trial directories. If this is `False` (default), no files
are written. If `true`, outputs are written to `trialdir/stdout`
and `trialdir/stderr`, respectively. If this is a single string,
this is interpreted as a file relative to the trialdir, to which
both streams are written. If this is a Sequence (e.g. a Tuple),
it has to have length 2 and the elements indicate the files to
which stdout and stderr are written, respectively.
trial_name_creator (Callable[[Trial], str]): Optional function
for generating the trial string representation.
trial_dirname_creator (Callable[[Trial], str]): Function
for generating the trial dirname. This function should take
in a Trial object and return a string representing the
name of the directory. The return value cannot be a path.
sync_config (SyncConfig): Configuration object for syncing. See
tune.SyncConfig.
export_formats (list): List of formats that exported at the end of
the experiment. Default is None.
max_failures (int): Try to recover a trial at least this many times.
Ray will recover from the latest checkpoint if present.
Setting to -1 will lead to infinite recovery retries.
Setting to 0 will disable retries. Defaults to 0.
fail_fast (bool | str): Whether to fail upon the first error.
If fail_fast='raise' provided, Tune will automatically
raise the exception received by the Trainable. fail_fast='raise'
can easily leak resources and should be used with caution (it
is best used with `ray.init(local_mode=True)`).
restore (str): Path to checkpoint. Only makes sense to set if
running 1 trial. Defaults to None.
server_port (int): Port number for launching TuneServer.
resume (str|bool): One of "LOCAL", "REMOTE", "PROMPT", "ERRORED_ONLY",
or bool. LOCAL/True restores the checkpoint from the
local experiment directory, determined
by ``name`` and ``local_dir``. REMOTE restores the checkpoint
from ``upload_dir`` (as passed to ``sync_config``).
PROMPT provides CLI feedback.
False forces a new experiment. ERRORED_ONLY resets and reruns
ERRORED trials upon resume - previous trial artifacts will
be left untouched. If resume is set but checkpoint does not exist,
ValueError will be thrown.
reuse_actors (bool): Whether to reuse actors between different trials
when possible. This can drastically speed up experiments that start
and stop actors often (e.g., PBT in time-multiplexing mode). This
requires trials to have the same resource requirements.
trial_executor (TrialExecutor): Manage the execution of trials.
raise_on_failed_trial (bool): Raise TuneError if there exists failed
trial (of ERROR state) when the experiments complete.
callbacks (list): List of callbacks that will be called at different
times in the training loop. Must be instances of the
``ray.tune.callback.Callback`` class. If not passed,
`LoggerCallback` and `SyncerCallback` callbacks are automatically
added.
max_concurrent_trials (int): Maximum number of trials to run
concurrently. Must be non-negative. If None or 0, no limit will
be applied. This is achieved by wrapping the ``search_alg`` in
a :class:`ConcurrencyLimiter`, and thus setting this argument
will raise an exception if the ``search_alg`` is already a
:class:`ConcurrencyLimiter`. Defaults to None.
_remote (bool): Whether to run the Tune driver in a remote function.
This is disabled automatically if a custom trial executor is
passed in. This is enabled by default in Ray client mode.
Returns:
ExperimentAnalysis: Object for experiment analysis.
Raises:
TuneError: Any trials failed and `raise_on_failed_trial` is True.

with `min-` it will rank attribute in decreasing order, i.e.
`min-validation_loss`.
global_checkpoint_period (int): Seconds between global checkpointing.
This does not affect `checkpoint_freq`, which specifies frequency
for individual trials.
export_formats (list): List of formats that exported at the end of
the experiment. Default is None.
max_failures (int): Try to recover a trial at least this many times.
Ray will recover from the latest checkpoint if present.
Setting to -1 will lead to infinite recovery retries.
Setting to 0 will disable retries. Defaults to 3.
fail_fast (bool): Whether to fail upon the first error.
restore (str): Path to checkpoint. Only makes sense to set if
running 1 trial. Defaults to None.
search_alg (Searcher): Search algorithm for optimization.
scheduler (TrialScheduler): Scheduler for executing
the experiment. Choose among FIFO (default), MedianStopping,
AsyncHyperBand, HyperBand and PopulationBasedTraining. Refer to
ray.tune.schedulers for more options.
with_server (bool): Starts a background Tune server. Needed for
using the Client API.
server_port (int): Port number for launching TuneServer.
verbose (int): 0, 1, or 2. Verbosity mode. 0 = silent,
1 = only status updates, 2 = status and trial results.
progress_reporter (ProgressReporter): Progress reporter for reporting
intermediate experiment progress. Defaults to CLIReporter if
running in command-line, or JupyterNotebookReporter if running in
a Jupyter notebook.
resume (str|bool): One of "LOCAL", "REMOTE", "PROMPT", or bool.
LOCAL/True restores the checkpoint from the local_checkpoint_dir.
REMOTE restores the checkpoint from remote_checkpoint_dir.
PROMPT provides CLI feedback. False forces a new
experiment. If resume is set but checkpoint does not exist,
ValueError will be thrown.
queue_trials (bool): Whether to queue trials when the cluster does
not currently have enough resources to launch one. This should
be set to True when running on an autoscaling cluster to enable
automatic scale-up.
reuse_actors (bool): Whether to reuse actors between different trials
when possible. This can drastically speed up experiments that start
and stop actors often (e.g., PBT in time-multiplexing mode). This
requires trials to have the same resource requirements.
trial_executor (TrialExecutor): Manage the execution of trials.
raise_on_failed_trial (bool): Raise TuneError if there exists failed
trial (of ERROR state) when the experiments complete.
ray_auto_init (bool): Automatically starts a local Ray cluster
if using a RayTrialExecutor (which is the default) and
if Ray is not initialized. Defaults to True.
Returns:
ExperimentAnalysis: Object for experiment analysis.
Raises:
TuneError: Any trials failed and `raise_on_failed_trial` is True.
Examples:
.. code-block:: python
# Run 10 trials (each trial is one instance of a Trainable). Tune runs
# in parallel and automatically determines concurrency.
tune.run(trainable, num_samples=10)
# Run 1 trial, stop when trial has reached 10 iterations

Args:
run_or_experiment (function | class | str | :class:`Experiment`): If
function|class|str, this is the algorithm or model to train.
This may refer to the name of a built-on algorithm
(e.g. RLLib's DQN or PPO), a user-defined trainable
function or class, or the string identifier of a
trainable function or class registered in the tune registry.
If Experiment, then Tune will execute training based on
Experiment.spec. If you want to pass in a Python lambda, you
will need to first register the function:
``tune.register_trainable("lambda_id", lambda x: ...)``. You can
then use ``tune.run("lambda_id")``.
metric (str): Metric to optimize. This metric should be reported
with `tune.report()`. If set, will be passed to the search
algorithm and scheduler.
mode (str): Must be one of [min, max]. Determines whether objective is
minimizing or maximizing the metric attribute. If set, will be
passed to the search algorithm and scheduler.
name (str): Name of experiment.
stop (dict | callable | :class:`Stopper`): Stopping criteria. If dict,
the keys may be any field in the return result of 'train()',
whichever is reached first. If function, it must take (trial_id,
result) as arguments and return a boolean (True if trial should be
stopped, False otherwise). This can also be a subclass of
``ray.tune.Stopper``, which allows users to implement
custom experiment-wide stopping (i.e., stopping an entire Tune
run based on some time constraint).
time_budget_s (int|float|datetime.timedelta): Global time budget in
seconds after which all trials are stopped. Can also be a
``datetime.timedelta`` object.
config (dict): Algorithm-specific configuration for Tune variant
generation (e.g. env, hyperparams). Defaults to empty dict.
Custom search algorithms may ignore this.
resources_per_trial (dict): Machine resources to allocate per trial,
e.g. ``{"cpu": 64, "gpu": 8}``. Note that GPUs will not be
assigned unless you specify them here. Defaults to 1 CPU and 0
GPUs in ``Trainable.default_resource_request()``.
num_samples (int): Number of times to sample from the
hyperparameter space. Defaults to 1. If `grid_search` is
provided as an argument, the grid will be repeated
`num_samples` of times.
local_dir (str): Local dir to save training results to.
Defaults to ``~/ray_results``.
search_alg (Searcher): Search algorithm for optimization.
scheduler (TrialScheduler): Scheduler for executing
the experiment. Choose among FIFO (default), MedianStopping,
AsyncHyperBand, HyperBand and PopulationBasedTraining. Refer to
ray.tune.schedulers for more options.
keep_checkpoints_num (int): Number of checkpoints to keep. A value of
`None` keeps all checkpoints. Defaults to `None`. If set, need
to provide `checkpoint_score_attr`.
checkpoint_score_attr (str): Specifies by which attribute to rank the
best checkpoint. Default is increasing order. If attribute starts
with `min-` it will rank attribute in decreasing order, i.e.
`min-validation_loss`.
checkpoint_freq (int): How many training iterations between
checkpoints. A value of 0 (default) disables checkpointing.
This has no effect when using the Functional Training API.
checkpoint_at_end (bool): Whether to checkpoint at the end of the
experiment regardless of the checkpoint_freq. Default is False.
This has no effect when using the Functional Training API.
verbose (int): 0, 1, or 2. Verbosity mode. 0 = silent,
1 = only status updates, 2 = status and trial results.
progress_reporter (ProgressReporter): Progress reporter for reporting
intermediate experiment progress. Defaults to CLIReporter if
running in command-line, or JupyterNotebookReporter if running in
a Jupyter notebook.
loggers (list): List of logger creators to be used with
each Trial. If None, defaults to ray.tune.logger.DEFAULT_LOGGERS.
See `ray/tune/logger.py`.
log_to_file (bool|str|Sequence): Log stdout and stderr to files in
Tune's trial directories. If this is `False` (default), no files
are written. If `true`, outputs are written to `trialdir/stdout`
and `trialdir/stderr`, respectively. If this is a single string,
this is interpreted as a file relative to the trialdir, to which
both streams are written. If this is a Sequence (e.g. a Tuple),
it has to have length 2 and the elements indicate the files to
which stdout and stderr are written, respectively.
trial_name_creator (Callable[[Trial], str]): Optional function
for generating the trial string representation.
trial_dirname_creator (Callable[[Trial], str]): Function
for generating the trial dirname. This function should take
in a Trial object and return a string representing the
name of the directory. The return value cannot be a path.
sync_config (SyncConfig): Configuration object for syncing. See
tune.SyncConfig.
export_formats (list): List of formats that exported at the end of
the experiment. Default is None.
max_failures (int): Try to recover a trial at least this many times.
Ray will recover from the latest checkpoint if present.
Setting to -1 will lead to infinite recovery retries.
Setting to 0 will disable retries. Defaults to 3.
fail_fast (bool | str): Whether to fail upon the first error.
If fail_fast='raise' provided, Tune will automatically
raise the exception received by the Trainable. fail_fast='raise'
can easily leak resources and should be used with caution (it
is best used with `ray.init(local_mode=True)`).
restore (str): Path to checkpoint. Only makes sense to set if
running 1 trial. Defaults to None.
server_port (int): Port number for launching TuneServer.
resume (str|bool): One of "LOCAL", "REMOTE", "PROMPT", "ERRORED_ONLY",
or bool. LOCAL/True restores the checkpoint from the
local_checkpoint_dir, determined
by `name` and `local_dir`. REMOTE restores the checkpoint
from remote_checkpoint_dir. PROMPT provides CLI feedback.
False forces a new experiment. ERRORED_ONLY resets and reruns
ERRORED trials upon resume - previous trial artifacts will
be left untouched. If resume is set but checkpoint does not exist,
ValueError will be thrown.
reuse_actors (bool): Whether to reuse actors between different trials
when possible. This can drastically speed up experiments that start
and stop actors often (e.g., PBT in time-multiplexing mode). This
requires trials to have the same resource requirements.
trial_executor (TrialExecutor): Manage the execution of trials.
raise_on_failed_trial (bool): Raise TuneError if there exists failed
trial (of ERROR state) when the experiments complete.
Returns:
ExperimentAnalysis: Object for experiment analysis.
Raises:
TuneError: Any trials failed and `raise_on_failed_trial` is True.

0 = silent, 1 = only status updates, 2 = status and brief trial
results, 3 = status and detailed trial results. Defaults to 3.
progress_reporter (ProgressReporter): Progress reporter for reporting
intermediate experiment progress. Defaults to CLIReporter if
running in command-line, or JupyterNotebookReporter if running in
a Jupyter notebook.
log_to_file (bool|str|Sequence): Log stdout and stderr to files in
Tune's trial directories. If this is `False` (default), no files
are written. If `true`, outputs are written to `trialdir/stdout`
and `trialdir/stderr`, respectively. If this is a single string,
this is interpreted as a file relative to the trialdir, to which
both streams are written. If this is a Sequence (e.g. a Tuple),
it has to have length 2 and the elements indicate the files to
which stdout and stderr are written, respectively.
trial_name_creator (Callable[[Trial], str]): Optional function
for generating the trial string representation.
trial_dirname_creator (Callable[[Trial], str]): Function
for generating the trial dirname. This function should take
in a Trial object and return a string representing the
name of the directory. The return value cannot be a path.
sync_config (SyncConfig): Configuration object for syncing. See
tune.SyncConfig.
export_formats (list): List of formats that exported at the end of
the experiment. Default is None.
max_failures (int): Try to recover a trial at least this many times.
Ray will recover from the latest checkpoint if present.
Setting to -1 will lead to infinite recovery retries.
Setting to 0 will disable retries. Defaults to 0.
fail_fast (bool | str): Whether to fail upon the first error.
If fail_fast='raise' provided, Tune will automatically
raise the exception received by the Trainable. fail_fast='raise'
can easily leak resources and should be used with caution (it
is best used with `ray.init(local_mode=True)`).
restore (str): Path to checkpoint. Only makes sense to set if
running 1 trial. Defaults to None.
server_port (int): Port number for launching TuneServer.
resume (str|bool): One of "LOCAL", "REMOTE", "PROMPT", "ERRORED_ONLY",
or bool. LOCAL/True restores the checkpoint from the
local_checkpoint_dir, determined
by `name` and `local_dir`. REMOTE restores the checkpoint
from remote_checkpoint_dir. PROMPT provides CLI feedback.
False forces a new experiment. ERRORED_ONLY resets and reruns
ERRORED trials upon resume - previous trial artifacts will
be left untouched. If resume is set but checkpoint does not exist,
ValueError will be thrown.
queue_trials (bool): Whether to queue trials when the cluster does
not currently have enough resources to launch one. This should
be set to True when running on an autoscaling cluster to enable
automatic scale-up.
reuse_actors (bool): Whether to reuse actors between different trials
when possible. This can drastically speed up experiments that start
and stop actors often (e.g., PBT in time-multiplexing mode). This
requires trials to have the same resource requirements.
trial_executor (TrialExecutor): Manage the execution of trials.
raise_on_failed_trial (bool): Raise TuneError if there exists failed
trial (of ERROR state) when the experiments complete.
callbacks (list): List of callbacks that will be called at different
times in the training loop. Must be instances of the
``ray.tune.callback.Callback`` class. If not passed,
`LoggerCallback` and `SyncerCallback` callbacks are automatically
added.
_remote (bool): Whether to run the Tune driver in a remote function.
This is disabled automatically if a custom trial executor is
passed in. This is enabled by default in Ray client mode.
Returns:
ExperimentAnalysis: Object for experiment analysis.
Raises:
TuneError: Any trials failed and `raise_on_failed_trial` is True.
