zvondb 0.2.0

Python SDK for the ML Artifact Registry

zvondb

Python SDK for the ML Artifact Registry — track artifacts, their lineage, and versions across ML experiments.

Installation

pip install zvondb

Quick start

from zvondb import Registry

with Registry(project="my-project") as reg:
    exp = reg.ensure_experiment("my-experiment", parent="baseline")

    with exp.start_job(name="train", git_sha="abc123") as job:
        # Resolve input artifacts (walks parent chain)
        data = job.resolve("TrainingData")
        print(f"Using {data.name} v{data.version} from {data.path}")

        # ... train your model ...

        # Register output artifact
        job.create(
            "TrainedModel",
            storage_name="s3",
            description="Model trained on latest data",
            metadata={"val_loss": 0.15},
            tags=["v1"],
        )
        job.complete()

Configuration

Environment variable	Constructor param	Default	Description
ZVONDB_URL	base_url	http://localhost:8000	Registry server URL
ZVONDB_API_KEY	api_key	""	API authentication token

Key concepts

• Registry — entry point; manages projects and experiments
• Experiment — a branch of work that can inherit artifacts from a parent experiment
• Job — a unit of work that consumes and produces artifacts
• Artifact — a versioned, named piece of data with metadata, tags, and lineage

W&B integration

with exp.start_job(name="train", git_sha="abc123") as job:
    job.inject_wandb_env()  # Sets WANDB_API_KEY, WANDB_PROJECT, WANDB_RUN_ID etc.
    # Tracking URL auto-set to https://wandb.ai/{entity}/{project}/runs/{job_id}

    # Frameworks like Axolotl that respect W&B env vars just work.
    # For manual usage:
    import wandb
    wandb.init()
    wandb.log({"loss": 0.5})
