Expedantic

Installation

pip install expedantic

Basic Usage

from expedantic import ConfigBase

# Define a config model
class MyConfig(ConfigBase):
    device: str = 'cuda:0'
    learning_rate: float = 1.0e-3
    num_epochs: int = 100

# Save and load from yaml files
my_config = MyConfig()
my_config.save_as_yaml("config.yaml")
my_config = MyConfig.load_from_yaml("config.yaml")


# For a given function or class,
def learn(device: str, learning_rate: float, num_epochs: int):
    ...

# Consume the config by getting kwargs automatically.
learn(**my_config.compatible_args(learn))


# Or pass manually
learn(my_config.device, my_config.learning_rate, my_config.num_epochs)

Features

• Type validation using pydantic.

• JSON schema generation for autocompletion on yaml files. You can facilitate efficient yaml editing on IDEs such as VS Code.

  For the VS Code usage, the following steps enable the autocompletion on yaml files for configuration models.

  1. Generate a schema.

  from pathlib import Path
  from typing import Annotated, Literal
  from expedantic import ConfigBase, Field
  
  
  class Config(ConfigBase):
      algorithm: Literal["TRPO", "PPO", "SAC", "TD3"] = "TRPO"
      target_kl: Annotated[
          float,
          Field(
              title="Target Kullback-Leibler divergence between updates.",
              description="Should be small for stability. Values like 0.01, 0.05.",
              gt=0.0,
          ),
      ] = 0.01
  
  
  config = Config()
  Path("configs").mkdir(exist_ok=True)
  config.save_as_yaml("configs/config.yaml")
  Config.generate_schema("schemas/config_schema.json")
  

  2. Install the yaml language extension.

  3. Associating the schema

   .vscode/settings.json
  yaml.schemas: {
      "schemas/config_schema.json": "configs/config.yaml",
  }
  

  Check the further rules for association in the description of the extension.

  4. Enjoy!

• Integrated argument parser with supporting nested key access:

  # run.py
  class MyInnerConfig(ConfigBase):
      inner_key: str = "inner_value"
  class MyConfig(ConfigBase):
      inner_config: MyInnerConfig = MyInnerConfig()
      outer_key: int = 10
  
  
  my_config = MyConfig.parse_args()
  

  python run.py --inner_config.inner_key "another inner value" --outer_key 20
  

• !include directive support for yaml files:

  # base.yaml
  learning_rate: 3.0e-5
  num_epochs: 10
  device: cpu
  

  # derived.yaml
  <<: !include base.yaml
  device: cuda
  extra: True
  

  The content of derived.yaml is equivalent to the following:

  learning_rate: 3.0e-5
  num_epochs: 10
  device: cuda
  extra: True
  

• Mutually exclusive configuration groups:

  from pydantic import ValidationError
  
  
  class Config(ConfigBase):
      _mutually_exclusive_sets = [{"make_algorithm_A_obsolete", "use_algorithm_A"}]
  
      make_algorithm_A_obsolete: bool = True
      use_algorithm_A: bool = False
  
  try:
      config = Config(make_algorithm_A_obsolete=True, use_algorithm_A=True)
  except ValidationError as e:
      print(e)
      """
      1 validation error for Config
          Value error, Mutual exclusivity has broken. (set: {'make_algorithm_A_obsolete', 'use_algorithm_A'}) [type=value_error, input_value={'make_algorithm_A_obsolete': True, 'use_algorithm_A': True}, input_type=dict]
      """
