Is There A Way To Get The Most Updated

Answered

Is there a way to get the most updated Script class?
Use case - I have a piece of code that is common in a few API services which may hold different version of the trains package.
(this piece of code is part of an internal pip-installable package).
The API services create a trains task in advance for other services to later on connect to and upload artifacts.

My current code is something like this:
` from trains import Task
try:
from trains.backend_api.services.v2_8.tasks import Script
except ImportError:
from trains.backend_api.services.v2_5.tasks import Script

def create_task(project_name, task_name, hyperparameters, entrypoint="", task_type=TaskTypes.training):
task = Task.create(project_name=project_name, task_name=task_name, task_type=task_type)
if entrypoint:
script = Script(entry_point=entrypoint, repository="")
task._update_script(script)
for key, value in hyperparameters.items():
task.set_parameter(key, value)
return task `

Hi HandsomeCrow5 ,
Try doing the following:
from trains.backend_api.services import tasks ... script = tasks.Script(...)

oh, it is indeed misleading.
what should I assign to internal_task_representation.execution.script then (per your example snippet)? a dictionary?

yes 🙂
But I think that when you get the internal_task_representation.execution.script you are basically already getting the API object (obviously with the correct version) so you can edit it in place and pass it too

Thanks for the prompt response SuccessfulKoala55 ! exactly what I was looking for 🙂

AgitatedDove14 - using your suggested solution looks a bit more generic, and a proper .edit method is a good idea for that. However - it doesn’t resolve the API version issue I had (that is, unless you also suggest to add a method to add execution.script , which isn’t initialized when I use Task.create )

HandsomeCrow5 if you want to edit the Task object you can just use:
internal_task_representation = task.data internal_task_representation.execution.script = ... task._edit(execution=internal_task_representation.execution)This will make sure you do not need to worry about API version etc. the Task object will take care of it.
BTW: it seems a few more people wanted this ability, maybe we should edit a proper .edit method to Task. Thoughts ?

So using the _edit method you have the ability to add/edit the execution.script field, without worrying about the API version (I guess the name edit is misleading, it also does add :)
