HParamT module-attribute 

HParamT = bool | float | int | str | None

Supported Hyperparameter types (i.e., JSON types).

DistributedFilter

Bases: Filter

Custom filter that allows specifying ranks to print to.

Example 
logger.info('My log message', extra={'ranks': [0, 2]})

get_filepaths 

get_filepaths(
    directory: Path | str,
    extensions: list[str] | None = None,
    recursive: bool = False,
) -> list[str]

Get list of filepaths in directory.

Note

Only files (not sub-directories will be returned. Though sub-directories will be recursed into if recursive=True.

Parameters:

  • directory (Path | str) –

    Pathlike object with the directory to search.

  • extensions (list[str] | None, default: None ) –

    Pptionally only return files that match these extensions. Each extension should include the dot. E.g., ['.pdf', '.txt']. Match is case sensitive.

  • recursive (bool, default: False ) –

    Recursively search sub-directories.

Returns:

  • list[str] –

    List of string paths of files in the directory.
