Create an interactive logging run

Source: R/experiment.R

Create an interactive run that allows the user to log metrics and artifacts to a run locally.

Any metrics that are logged during the interactive run session are added to the run record in the experiment. If an output directory is specified, the contents of that directory is uploaded as run artifacts upon run completion.

This method is useful if you would like to add experiment tracking and artifact logging to the corresponding run record in Azure ML for local runs without have to submit an experiment run to a compute target with submit_experiment().

start_logging_run(experiment, outputs = NULL, snapshot_directory = NULL)

Arguments

experiment

The Experiment object.
outputs

(Optional) A string of the local path to an outputs directory to track.
snapshot_directory

(Optional) Directory to take snapshot of. Setting to NULL will take no snapshot.

Value

The Run object of the started run.

exp <- experiment(ws, name = 'myexperiment')
run <- start_logging_run(exp)

complete_run(run)
