        ML Launchpad lets you easily make Machine Learning models available as
        REST API. It also offers lightweight model life cycle
        management functionality.
        
        It creates a separation between machine learning
        models and their environment. This way, you can run your model with
        different `data sources <https://mllaunchpad.readthedocs.io/en/latest/datasources.html>`_.
        and on different environments, by just swapping
        out the configuration, no code changes required. ML Launchpad makes your
        model available as a business-facing *RESTful API*
        without extra coding.
        
        Currently, some basic model life cycle management is supported. Training
        automatically persists a model in the model store together with its metrics,
        and automatically retrieves it for launching its API or
        re-training. Previous models are backed up.
        
        The full documentation is available at https://mllaunchpad.readthedocs.io.
        
        To learn more about the rationale and structure of ML Launchpad,
        see `Description <https://mllaunchpad.readthedocs.io/en/latest/about.html>`_.
        
        Getting started
        ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
        
        .. code:: console
        
          $ pip install mllaunchpad
        
        Download the `example files <https://mllaunchpad.readthedocs.io/en/latest/_static/examples.zip>`_
        from the ML Launchpad GitHub repo. Some of them might require the installations
        of some extra packages (e.g. scikit-learn), depending on what they demonstrate.
        
        For more about installation, or if you don't want to use ``pip``
        and instead install from source (as a user), please see the section `Installation <https://mllaunchpad.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation.html>`_.
        
        If you want to work on ML Launchpad itself, see `Contributing <https://mllaunchpad.readthedocs.io/en/latest/contributing.html>`_.
        
        What's in the box?
        ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
        
        If you downloaded the source, you see several subfolders, where ``mllaunchpad``
        is the actual ML Launchpad package and the rest are examples and
        development tools. You can safely ignore anything except the examples.
        
        The ``examples`` contain a few example model implementations.
        Look here for inspiration on how to use this package. Every model here
        consists of at least three files:
        
        * ``<examplename>_model.py``: the example’s actual model code
        
        * ``<examplename>_cfg.yml``: the example’s configuration file
        
        * ``<examplename>.raml``: example’s RESTful API specification.
          Used, among others, to parse and validate parameters.
        
        * There are also some extra files, like CSV files to use, or
          `datasource <https://mllaunchpad.readthedocs.io/en/latest/datasources.html>`_.
          extensions.
        
        The subfolder ``testserver`` contains an example for running a REST API
        in gunicorn behind nginx.
        
        Try Out the Examples
        ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
        
        In the following, it is assumed that ``mllaunchpad`` is `installed <https://mllaunchpad.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation.html>`_ and
        the `examples <https://mllaunchpad.readthedocs.io/en/latest/_static/examples.zip>`_ are located in the current directory.
        
        To train a very, *very* simple example model whose job it is to add two
        numbers, use the command:
        
        .. code:: console
        
          $ mllaunchpad -c addition_cfg.yml -t
        
        (We give it a config file after the ``-c`` parameter, and ``-t`` is
        short for the command ``--train``. There’s also a parameter ``-h`` to
        print help)
        
        Some log information is printed (you can give it a log-config file to
        change this, see examples/logging_cfg.yml). At the end, it should say
        “Created and stored trained model”, followed by something about metrics.
        
        This created a model_store if it didn’t exist yet (which for now is just
        a directory). For our examples, the model store is conveniently located
        in the same directory. It contains our persisted ``addition`` model and
        its metadata.
        
        To re-test the previously trained model, use the command ``-r``:
        
        .. code:: console
        
           $ mllaunchpad -c addition_cfg.yml -r
        
        To run a (debugging-only!) REST API for the model, use the command
        ``-a``:
        
        .. code:: console
        
           $ mllaunchpad -c addition_cfg.yml -a
        
        To quickly try out out our fancy addition model API, open this link in a
        browser: http://127.0.0.1:5000/add/v0/sum?x1=3&x2=2
        (``curl http://127.0.0.1:5000/add/v0/sum?x1=3&x2=2`` on the command
        line)
        
        What next?
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        Have a look at the ``addition`` example’s python code (and comments),
        its yml config, then look at the other examples. First, we suggest the
        ``tree`` example for intermediate complexity (although its prediction
        code does quite some complex stuff to be compatible with three different
        kinds of prediction usage, which is not really that realistic).
        
        If you are wondering about the RAML file (which is a RESTful API
        specification standard that is used in some corporate environments, and
        a good idea in general), also look at the ``-g`` (generate raml) command
        line parameter, which does a lot of work (almost all of it, in fact) for
        getting you started with a first RAML.
        
        To learn how to use ML Launchpad, see `Usage <https://mllaunchpad.readthedocs.io/en/latest/usage.html>`_.
        
        For more details on how ML Launchpad actually works and why we created it,
        see `In Depth <https://mllaunchpad.readthedocs.io/en/latest/about.html>`_.
        
        Troubleshooting
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        In case the console command ``mllaunchpad <your_arguments>`` is not recognized,
        try:
        
        .. code:: console
        
          $ python -m mllaunchpad <your_arguments>
        
        If you get an error like ``No module named 'your_model'``, the file
        ``your_model.py`` is not in the python path. You can try to set the
        `PYTHONPATH environment variable <https://docs.python.org/3/using/cmdline.html#envvar-PYTHONPATH>`_
        to the path(s) to your file(s), or, if you're using ``mllaunchpad``
        from your own python code, append the path(s) to
        `sys.path <https://docs.python.org/3/library/sys.html?highlight=sys.path#sys.path>`_.
        
        If you get ``ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'mllaunchpad'`` (in
        ``mllaunchpad/__main__.py``), try to start flask the following way:
        
        .. code:: console
        
           $ export FLASK_APP=mllaunchpad.wsgi:application
           $ export LAUNCHPAD_CFG=addition_cfg.yml
           $ flask run
        
        (On Windows, use ``set`` instead of ``export``)
        
        This problem appears to be connected to Flask restarting in different ways on
        different installations. If you know what exactly this is about, `please let us
        know <https://github.com/schuderer/mllaunchpad/issues/30>`_.
