in the above image if u see 3rd entry and 7th entry their model and task are the same

I will dig around to see how all of this could be accomplished.
Right now I see it done in two ways:
a function that you must remember to call each time that would do the upkeep a script that you can run once in a while to do cleanupwhich one would you prefer that I will pursue?

so what I am describing is exactly this - once you try to create an output model from the same task, if the name already exists - do not create a new model, just update the timestamp on the old one

https://github.com/allegroai/trains/issues/193 for future reference (I will update later)

Thanks for your help.

this is ok but in the path if they have changed the model then

fine. Can I open a feature request on our github for you, refering this conversation?

first option

then you can open feature request

okay yes you are saying right

and should it work across your workspace, i.e. does not matter if task id changed? just always keep a single model with the same filename? i'm really worried this could break a lot of the reproducible/repeateable flow for your process.

with upload I would strongly recommend against doing this

but there will be duplicate entries in the UI

how to update timestamp

leave the last thing

same name == same path, assuming no upload is taking place? *just making sure

script runs, tries to register 4 models, each one of them is exactly found in the path, size/timestamp is different. then it will update the old 4 models with the new details and erase all the other fields

yes, this is the thing.

if you want something that could work in either case, then maybe the second option is better

can we delete the models and then upload it again?

what a turn of events 😉 so lets summarize again:
upkeep script - for each task, find out if there are several models created by it with the same name if so, make some log so that devops can erase files DESTRUCTIVELY delete all the models from the trains-server that are in DRAFT mode, except the last one

not in the way I am seeing it.

wait, I thought this is without upload

yes your idea looks good.

I'm sorry, then what?

ok

yes

isn't it better if it just updates the timestamp on the old models?

yes like there will be 4 models each will be with different names and when i run my script second time it should replace those models with new ones
