This repository is part of vantage6, our privacy preserving federated learning infrastructure for secure insight exchange, and contains all the vantage6 infrastructure source/ code. Please visit our website (vantage6.ai) to learn more!

:books: Documentation

This repository is home to 6 PyPi packages:

• vantage6 -> CLI for managing node and server instances
• vantage6-client -> Python client for interacting with the vantage6-server
• vantage6-algorithm-tools -> Python tools to facilitate algorithm development
• vantage6-node -> Node application package
• vantage6-server -> Server application package
• vantage6-common -> Server application package

Note that when using vantage6 you do not install the server and node packages. These are delivered to you in Docker images.

Two docker images are published which contain the Node and Server applications:

• harbor2.vantage6.ai/infrastructure/node:VERSION
• harbor2.vantage6.ai/infrastructure/server:VERSION

These docker images are used by the vantage6 CLI package, which can be installed by running:

pip install vantage6

This will install the CLI which enables you to use (among others) the commands to manage your nodes and servers:

• v6 node CMD [OPTIONS]
• v6 server CMD [OPTIONS]

You can find more (user) documentation at Gitbook (docs.vantage6.ai). If you have any questions, suggestions or just want to chat about federated learning: join our Dircord (https://discord.gg/yAyFf6Y) channel.

We hope to continue developing, improving, and supporting vantage6 with the help of the federated learning community. If you are interested in contributing, first of all, thank you! Second, please take a look at our contributing guidelines
