Auto Git info

auto_git_info.py is a python module made to save a run parameters and git versions. It will create a json file with those information.

Installation

pip install git+https://gitlab.lis-lab.fr/maxence.ferrari/auto_git_info.git

To uninstall, just type pip uninstall auto_git_info

Basic usage

from auto_git_info import log_info
import argparse

if __name__ == '__main__':
    parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
    parser.add_argument("input", type=str, help="Input file")
    parser.add_argument("--output", type=str, default=None, help="Output file")
    
    args = parser.parse_args()
    log_info(args)

This will create a json file in run_log/ by default, with the current time as a name. The json file created will be:

{"script": "/home/xxx/Documents/Python/auto_git_info/test_auto_git.py", 
 "commit": "7ce86099e62e7ffdfe77fbbcafbe48b862c269b9",
 "parameters": {"input": "rnd_input",
                "output": null},
 "time": "2023-06-23T18:04:30.894271"}

Advance usage

args

Instead of passing the Namespace object from the ArgumentParser parser, you can also directly pass the parser itself. Alternatively, you can pass a dictionary or any serializable object. You can also use None if you don't have any arguments.

path

If you don't want the default path you can use the path named argument to specify the path to save the info. Any intermediate directories will be created.
