Sacredboard

Sacredboard is a web dashboard for the Sacred machine learning experiment management tool.

It connects to the MongoDB database used by Sacred and displays a list of experiments, their state, Sacred configuration and the standard output from the running program.
Python 3.5 and a modern web browser are required for it to work properly.

Features in version 0.3

Get an overview of running and finished experiments in a table, such as experiment name, machine on which it runs etc.
Filter experiments
Get detailed information of the experiment, such as the text output produced by the experiment.
Run Tensorboard directly from the web console in order to see detailed information, charts and Tensorflow graph visualisations, provided that the experiment uses Sacred's Integration with Tensorflow (does not work with TensorFlow 1.2 now)
Visualise Metrics in a chart.
Use the MongoDB and newly also FileStorage backend (experimental, thanks to Gideon Dresdner)

Installation and Running Sacredboard

Install sacredboard using pip:

pip install sacredboard

To install the latest development version with new features, run:

pip install https://github.com/chovanecm/sacredboard/archive/develop.zip

Running

Sacredboard can be run simply by typing sacredboard to connect to a local MongoDB database listening on port 27017, database name sacred.

To connect to another machine or database name, specifiy the connection string using the -m host:port:db option.

sacredboard -m sacred

or, if you wish to connect to another machine and/or use a non-default name of the Sacred runs collection (-mc):

sacredboard -m 192.168.1.1:27017:sacred -mc default.runs

For setting more advanced connection properties, use the -mu option together with the Sacred database name ("sacred" in the example):

sacredboard -mu mongodb://user:pwd@host/admin?authMechanism=SCRAM-SHA-1 sacred

See MongoDB Connection String for more information.

The web browser with Sacredboard should open automatically.

To display help, run

sacredboard --help

Contributing

Contributions to Sacred are welcomed (see issues for inspiration). The project tries to follow the git-flow workflow. Therefore, contributions of new features should be developed against the develop branch. Thank you!
