tf-logger 1.1.1

A print and debugging utility that makes your error printouts look nice

pip install tf_logger

Usage

from tf_logger import TF_Logger

logger = TF_Logger(log_directory="/tmp/logs/tf_logger_test/")

logger.log(index=3, note='this is a log entry!')
logger.flush()

# Images
face = scipy.misc.face()
face_bw = scipy.misc.face(gray=True)
logger.log_image(index=4, color_image=face, black_white=face_bw)
    image_bw = np.zeros((64, 64, 1))
    image_bw_2 = scipy.misc.face(gray=True)[::4, ::4]

# now print a stack
for i in range(10):
    logger.log_image(i, animation=[face] * 5)

logging images using tf_logger

I’m planning on writing a better ML dashboard in the future.

This version of logger is integrated with tensorboard and at the same time prints the data in a tabular format to your stdout. - can silence stdout per key (per logger.log call) - can print with color: logger.log(timestep, some_key=green(some_data)) - can print with custom formatting: logger.log(timestep, some_key=green(some_data, percent)) where percent - uses the correct unix table characters (please stop using | and +. Use ``│``, ``┼`` instead)

A typical print out of this logger look like the following:

from tf_logger import TF_Logger

logger = TF_Logger(log_directory=f"/mnt/bucket/deep_Q_learning/{datetime.now(%Y%m%d-%H%M%S.%f):}")

logger.log_params(G=vars(G), RUN=vars(RUN), Reporting=vars(Reporting))

outputs the following

example_real_log_output

And the data from multiple experiments can be views with tensorboard.
