This is definitely getting into an example soon! Props for building something cool
Hi JitteryCoyote63 ,
These properties are usually not available on the UI and are used internal, hence the lack of documentation. Regrading parent property, it will hold a parent Task.id (str) , that said it has no real effect on the Task itself. You can however search for Tasks with a specific parent ID (For examples, this is how the the hyper parameter class is using this property)
Hi, which Trains doc version are you looking at? Is it the latest?
AgitatedDove14 In my case I'd rather have it under the "Artifacts" tab because it is a big json file
The parent task is a data_processing task, therefore I retrieve it so that I can then data_processed = parent_task.artifacts["data_processed"]
Yes, actually thats what I am doing, because I have a task C depending on tasks A and B. Since a Task cannot have two parents, I retrieve one task id (task A) as the parent id and the other one (ID of task B) as a hyper-parameter, as you described 👍
GrumpyPenguin23 yes, it is the latest
AgitatedDove14 , what I was looking for was: parent_task = Task.get_task(task.parent)
The only downside is that you cannot see it in the UI (or edit it).
You can now do:data = {'datatask': 'idhere'} task.connect(data, 'DataSection')This will create another section named "DataSection" on the configuration tab. then you will be able to see/edit the input Task.id
JitteryCoyote63 what do you think?
JitteryCoyote63 I meant to store the parent ID as another "hyper-parameter" (under its own section name) not the data itself.
Makes sense ?
