Running a Sample App With the Tracking API

The programs in examples use the MLflow Tracking API. For instance, run:

python examples/quickstart/mlflow_tracking.py

This program will use MLflow Tracking API, which logs tracking data in ./mlruns. This can then be viewed with the Tracking UI.

Launching the Tracking UI

The MLflow Tracking UI will show runs logged in ./mlruns at http://localhost:5000. Start it with:

mlflow ui

Note: Running mlflow ui from within a clone of MLflow is not recommended - doing so will run the dev UI from source. We recommend running the UI from a different working directory, specifying a backend store via the --backend-store-uri option. Alternatively, see instructions for running the dev UI in the contributor guide.

Running a Project from a URI

The mlflow run command lets you run a project packaged with a MLproject file from a local path or a Git URI:

mlflow run examples/sklearn_elasticnet_wine -P alpha=0.4

mlflow run https://github.com/mlflow/mlflow-example.git -P alpha=0.4

See examples/sklearn_elasticnet_wine for a sample project with an MLproject file.

Saving and Serving Models

To illustrate managing models, the mlflow.sklearn package can log scikit-learn models as MLflow artifacts and then load them again for serving. There is an example training application in examples/sklearn_logistic_regression/train.py that you can run as follows:

$ python examples/sklearn_logistic_regression/train.py
Score: 0.666
Model saved in run <run-id>

$ mlflow models serve --model-uri runs:/<run-id>/model

$ curl -d '{"columns":[0],"index":[0,1],"data":[[1],[-1]]}' -H 'Content-Type: application/json'  localhost:5000/invocations
