Breaking changes#

ID	Description
ML-5741/3206	The new flag `allow_cross_project` (`mlrun.projects.get_or_create_project()` and `mlrun.projects.load_project()`) gives you options to manage a situation where you call `get_or_create_project` or `load_project` and there is already a `project.yaml` with a different project name. In v1.7 and v1.8 `allow_cross_project` is set to None by default, meaning if there is a mismatch in the name, you get a warning (that the project name is different than the `project.yaml`) and then the flow continues. If `allow_cross_project` is False, an exception is raised. And if `allow_cross_project` is True, the flow continues. (Prior to v1.9 you should set `allow_cross_project` to either True or False; the None option will be deprecated.)

v1.4.0 (23 July 2023)#

New and updated features#

Functions#

ID	Description
ML-3474	New sub-package in MLRun for packing returning outputs, logging them to MLRun and unpacking inputs, parsing data items to their required type. View in Git.

Notifications#

ID	Description
ML-21	Supports job notifications. See full details in Notifications, and View in Git.

Projects#

ID	Description
ML-3375	Two new APIs in the MlrunProject object, used to build an image directly through project API, without creating a function and building an image for it: `build_config` configures the default build for a given project; `build_image` builds a docker image based on the project configuration. See `MlrunProject`, Image build configuration, build_image, and View in Git.
ML-4084	New API to run a setup script to enrich a project, when loading the project. View in Git

Serving#

ID	Description
ML-3654	Updates to `error_handler`: Exceptions are applied to either a graph or a step. In the case of a graph, the graph stops upon an error. In the case of a step, the graph can either stop or complete upon an error. See Error handling. View in Git.

UI#

ID	Description
ML-1248	The engine type now displays in the Feature Set Overview tab.
ML-2083	The Run on spot value now displays in the Jobs Overview tab.
ML-3176	The new Passthrough button in the Create Feature Set enables creating a feature set without ingesting its data, previously supported by SDK.

Documentation#

ID	Description
ML-3548	Passing parameters between steps using the `outputs` parameter is now described in Write a pipeline.
ML-3763	The relationship between GPUs and remote functions is now explained in Number of GPUs and Example of Nuclio function.

New documentation pages#

Breaking changes#

ID	Description
ML-3733	`mlrun.get_run_db().list_model_endpoints()` returns `list`. Previously, it returned `mlrun.api.schemas.model_endpoints.ModelEndpointList`.
ML-3773	The aggregation mechanism on Redis databases has improved, but the history of the aggregation (from before the upgrade) is lost, as if there were 0 events during that period.
ML-4053	Pre-v1.4.0: When logging artifacts during a runtime (regular artifacts, not models (ModelArtifact via context.log_model) or datasets (DatasetArtifact via context.log_dataset)), they were strings in the RunObject outputs property. The strings were the target path to the file logged in the artifact. From v1.4.0, they are the store path of the artifact, and not the target path. (They now appear the same as the store paths for logging models and datasets.) This is breaking behavior only if you use the output of the run object as a parameter to another runtime and not as an input. View in Git.

 # Set 2 functions:
func1 = project.set_function(...)
func2 = project.set_function(...)

# Run the first function:
run1 = func1.run(...)
# In the function  `func1` we logged a model "my_model" and an artifact "my_artifact"
run1.outputs  
{
    "my_model": "store://...",
    "my_artifact": "store://...",  # Instead of target path: "/User/.../data.csv"
}

# The function `func2` expects a `DataItem` for the logged artifact so passing it through inputs will work as `DataItem` can work with store paths:
run2 = func2.run(..., inputs={"artifact": run1.outputs["my_artifact"]})

# But passing it through a parameter won't work as the string value is now a store path and not a target path:
run2 = func2.run(..., params={"artifact": run1.outputs["my_artifact"]})

v1.3.0 (22 March 2023)#

Client/server matrix, prerequisites, and installing#

The MLRun server is now based on Python 3.9. It's recommended to move the client to Python 3.9 as well.

MLRun v1.3.0 maintains support for mlrun base images that are based on python 3.7. To differentiate between the images, the images based on python 3.7 have the suffix: -py37. The correct version is automatically chosen for the built-in MLRun images according to the Python version of the MLRun client (for example, a 3.7 Jupyter gets the -py37 images).

MLRun v1.3.x maintains support for mlrun base images that are based on a python 3.7 environment. To differentiate between the images, the images based on python 3.7 have the suffix: -py37. The correct version is automatically chosen for the built-in MLRun images according to the Python version of the MLRun client (for example, a 3.7 Jupyter gets the -py37 images).

For a Python 3.9 environment see Set up a Python 3.9 client environment.

Set up a Python 3.7 client environment (Iguazio versions up to and including v3.5.2)#

Note

There is a known bug with nbformat on the Jupyter version in Iguazio up to and including v3.5.2, which requires upgrading nbformat to 5.7.0. When using an older nbformat, some Jupyter Notebooks do not open.

To install on a Python 3.7 environment (and optionally upgrade to python 3.9 environment):

Configure the Jupyter service with the env variable JUPYTER_PREFER_ENV_PATH=false.
Within the Jupyter service, open a terminal and update conda and pip to have an up-to-date pip resolver.

$CONDA_HOME/bin/conda install -y conda=23.1.0 	
$CONDA_HOME/bin/conda install -y 'pip>=22.0'
$CONDA_HOME/bin/conda install -y nbformat=5.7.0

If you want to upgrade to a Python 3.9 environment, create a new conda env and activate it:

conda create -n python39 python=3.9 ipykernel -y
conda activate python39

Install mlrun:

./align_mlrun.sh

New and updated features#

Feature store#

ID	Description
ML-2592	Offline data can be registered as feature sets (Tech Preview). See Create a feature set without ingesting its data.
ML-2610	Supports SQLSource for batch ingestion (Tech Preview). See SQL data source.
ML-2610	Supports SQLTarget for storey engine (Tech Preview). (Spark is not yet supported.) See SQL target store.
ML-2709	The Spark engine now supports the steps: `MapValues`, `Imputer`, `OneHotEncoder`, `DropFeatures`; and supports extracting the time parts from the date in the `DateExtractor` step. See Data transformations.
ML-2802	`get_offline_features` supports Spark Operator and Remote Spark.
ML-2957	The username and password for the RedisNoSqlTarget are now configured using secrets, as `<prefix_>REDIS_USER <prefix_>REDIS_PASSWORD` where <prefix> is the optional RedisNoSqlTarget `credentials_prefix` parameter. See Redis target store.
ML-3008	Supports Spark using Redis as an online KV target, which caused a breaking change.
ML-3373	Supports creating a feature vector over several feature sets with different entities. (Outer joins are Tech Preview.) See Using an offline feature vector. This API will change in a future release, moving the relationship from the feature set to the feature vector.

Logging data#

ID	Description
ML-2845	Logging data using `hints`. You can now pass data into MLRun and log it using log hints, instead of the decorator. This is the initial change in MLRun to simplify wrapping usable code into MLRun without having to modify it. Future releases will continue this paradigm shift. See more details.

Projects#

ID	Description
ML-3048	When defining a new project from scratch, there is now a default `context` directory: "`./`". This is the directory from which the MLRun client runs, unless otherwise specified.

Serving graphs#

ID	Description
ML-1167	Add support for graphs that split and merge (DAG), including a list of steps for the `after` argument in the `add_step()` method. See Graph that splits and rejoins.
ML-2507	Supports configuring of consumer group name for steps following QueueSteps. See Queue (streaming).

Storey#

ID	Description
ML-2502	The event time in storey events is now taken from the `timestamp_key`. If the `timestamp_key` is not defined for the event, then the time is taken from the processing-time metadata. View in Git, and in Storey git.

UI#

Description

ML-1186

The new Projects home page provides easy and intuitive access to the full project lifecycle in three phases, with links to the relevant wizards under each phase heading: ingesting and processing data, developing and training a model, deploying and monitoring the project.

mlrun-project-homepage

UI change log in GitHub

APIs#

ID	Description
ML-3104	These APIs now only return reasons in kwargs: `log_and_raise`, `generic_error_handler`, `http_status_error_handler`.
ML-3204	New API `set_image_pull_configuration` that modifies `func.spec.image_pull_secret` and `func.spec.image_pull_policy`, instead of directly accessing these values through the spec.

Documentation#

Improvements to Set up your environment.

Infrastructure improvements#

Description

ML-2609

MLRun server is based on Python 3.9.

ML-2732

The new log collection service improves the performance and reduces heavy IO operations from the API container. The new MLRun log collector service is a gRPC server, which runs as sidecar in the mlrun-api pod (chief and worker). The service is responsible for collecting logs from run pods, writing to persisted files, and reading them on request. The new service is transparent to the end-user: there are no UI or API changes.

Breaking changes#

The behavior of ingest with aggregation changed in v1.3.0 (storey, spark, pandas engines). Now, when you ingest a "timestamp" column, it returns
<class 'pandas._libs.tslibs.timestamps.Timestamp'>.
Previously, it returned <class 'str'>
Any target data that was saved using Redis as an online target with storey engine (RedisNoSql target, introduced in 1.2.1) is not accessible after upgrading to v1.3. (Data ingested subsequent to the upgrade is unaffected.)

Deprecated and removed APIs#

Starting with v1.3.0, and continuing in subsequent releases, obsolete functions are getting removed from the code. See Deprecations and removed code.

v1.2.0 (1 December 2022)#

New and updated features#

Artifacts#

Support for artifact tagging:
- SDK: Add tag_artifacts and delete_artifacts_tags that can be used to modify existing artifacts tags and have more than one version for an artifact.
- UI: You can add and edit artifact tags in the UI.
- API: Introduce new endpoints in /projects/<project>/tags.

Auth#

Support S3 profile and assume-role when using fsspec.
Support GitHub fine grained tokens.

Documentation#

Restructured, and added new content.

Feature store#

Support Redis as an online feature set for storey engine only. (See Redis target store.)
Fully supports ingesting with pandas engine, now equivalent to ingestion with storey engine (TechPreview):
- Support DataFrame with multi-index.
- Support mlrun steps when using pandas engine: OneHotEncoder , DateExtractor, MapValue, Imputer and FeatureValidation.
Add new step: DropFeature for pandas and storey engines. (TechPreview)
Add param query for get_offline_feature for filtering the output.

Frameworks#

Add HuggingFaceModelServer to mlrun.frameworks at mlrun.frameworks.huggingface to serve HuggingFace models.

Functions#

Add function.with_annotations({"framework":"tensorflow"}) to user-created functions.
Add overwrite_build_params to project.build_function() so the user can choose whether or not to keep the build params that were used in previous function builds.
deploy_function has a new option of mock deployment that allows running the function locally.

Installation#

New option to install google-cloud requirements using mlrun[google-cloud]: when installing MLRun for integration with GCP clients, only compatible packages are installed.

Models#

The Labels in the Models > Overview tab can be edited.

Internal#

Refactor artifacts endpoints to follow the MLRun convention of /projects/<project>/artifacts/.... (The previous API will be deprecated in a future release.)
Add /api/_internal/memory-reports/ endpoints for memory related metrics to better understand the memory consumption of the API.
Improve the HTTP retry mechanism.
Support a new lightweight mechanism for KFP pods to pull the run state they triggered. Default behavior is legacy, which pulls the logs of the run to figure out the run state. The new behavior can be enabled using a feature flag configured in the API.

Breaking changes#

Feature store: Ingestion using pandas now takes the dataframe and creates indices out of the entity column (and removes it as a column in this df). This could cause breakage for existing custom steps when using a pandas engine.

Closed issues#

Support logging artifacts larger than 5GB to V3IO. View in Git.
Limit KFP to kfp~=1.8.0, <1.8.14 due to non-backwards changes done in 1.8.14 for ParallelFor, which isn’t compatible with the MLRun managed KFP server (1.8.1). View in Git.
