Connect

Most of the advanced features are enabled/disabled via px.connect() parameters. Example usage is shown below.

It is up to the user to enable the features they need.
Most of these features are independent of each other and can be used together or separately.
It is recommended to call px.connect() at the beginning of your session to start using the advanced features.

Simple Config

Following is the simple config with experiment path, logging path and cache path. See, corresponding pages for more details.

import proxai as px
 
px.connect(
    experiment_path='translation/en-to-fr/experiment_1',
    logging_path='~/proxai-logs',
    cache_path='~/proxai-cache')

More Customized Config

Following example shows the more customized possible config. Each option has its own page with more details.

import proxai as px
 
px.connect(
    experiment_path='translation/en-to-fr/experiment_1',
    logging_options=px.LoggingOptions(
        logging_path='~/proxai-logs',
        stdout=True,
        hide_sensitive_content=True),
    cache_options=px.CacheOptions(
        cache_path='~/proxai-cache',
        unique_response_limit=3
        retry_if_error_cached=True,
        clear_query_cache_on_connect=True,
        clear_model_cache_on_connect=True,
        model_cache_duration=1200),
    proxdash_options=px.ProxDashOptions(
        stdout=True,
        hide_sensitive_content=True,
        api_key='your-proxdash-api-key'),
    strict_feature_test=True,
    model_test_timeout=60,
    allow_multiprocessing=False,
    suppress_provider_errors=True)
