Run the model template

As mentioned previously, the model algorithm template contains a fully functional model algorithm that can be used to train and predict. To see it in action, we have defined several commands.

The commands

For the list of available commands, simply enter:

poe --help

Run the model algorithm service

poe start

# Or if you want to specify a port:
#poe start --port [PORT]

This command will start a MongoDB container and a model algorithm container. By default the model algorithm container can be accessed through http://localhost:5566/, but you can designate a port to the command.

❯ poe start
Poe => PORT=${port} docker-compose up --build -d

You can send a request to the model algorithm container to see if it is working:

❯ curl "http://localhost:5566/info"
{"name": "exodus_model_template", "description": "description"}

Using the webapp to test out the model algorithm

If you go to http://localhost:3000, you will see a web page that allows you to test out the model algorithm. Select a CSV file, upload it and select the proper feature types, and then click Train Model. For predicting with a model, type in the model id, upload a CSV file for prediction, and then press Predict.

Watching the model algorithm service

poe watch

If you do this while the service is down, the command will have no effect.

Stoping the model algorithm service

poe stop

❯ poe stop
Poe => PORT=$(python scripts/stop.py);
  if test $? -eq 0; then PORT=$PORT docker-compose down; else echo "No container running, not stopping anything"; fi
