Laminar

ML model version management tool:robot:

About

Making ML models and maintaining their versions can get messy quick especially when there are hundreds of versions and their properties to manage, laminar solves the problem of storing all these hyperparameteres/metadata to help you keep notes of your models 😮‍💨

Getting started

Download the files

laminar.exe
settings.json
store.db

Always remember to store all three of the files in the same directory

And thats it you do not need to install anything just plug and play:sunglasses:

Commands

The create command

The create command creates a directory at the location of your choice (if no path is selected) a window will open to select the directory where you want to store the files

After selecting your directory you can type create [name]

For example

create test

Format to enter hyperparameters and performance scores is name = value

To stop entering hyperparameters or performance scores you can just leave it blank and press enter

Something to remember here is that once you select a directory all the future models(model here is referred to the json file storing the metadata you just entered) would be stored at that path, to change the path you can use the setpath command:heart:

Adding versions

To add versions to your models you can simply type add version to [name]

add version to test

Version can be added to only the model created with laminar and if the files or the path it was stored in are not changed ❤️

Deleting a model

To delete a model and its versions you can type delete model [name]

delete model test

Model can be only be deleted if it was created with laminar and if the files or the path it was stored in are not changed ❤️

Deleting all versions

To delete all the versions excepet the main model you can type in delete all versions [name]

delete all versions test

Versions can only be deleted if they were created with laminar and if the files or the path it was stored in are not changed ❤️

Deleting a specific version

To delete a specific version you can type delete version

delete version

Version can only be deleted if they were created with laminar and if the files or the path it was stored in are not changed ❤️

Listing out the current models made

To list all the models present currently you can type listmodels

list models

Models made with laminar along with their respective path would be listed ❤️

Viewing a specific object of a model

To view a specific object for example the name or the version you can type list

list

The available objects to list are

• name
• model-version
• model-type
• hyperparameters
• performance-scores
• database-type
• note

Some wranings 👇

• Its always a good idea to make a new empty directory to store all the models
• Two hyperparameters or Performance scores cannot be the same name
• When deleting always make sure important files with the same name do not exist in the model directory to avoid deleting of important files
• Avoid same naming two undeleted models and versions
• Make sure to always delete a model created with laminar to delete it with laminar
• Keep the settings.json, store.db and laminar.exe in the same directory

Note

Please remember that laminar is currently in its baby(beta) stages and may often be buggy or cause problems
