Store models offline

[shaziaakbar]

Hi everyone, The "offline mode" feature is great when using HPC environments with no internet connection. Would it be possible to expand this to allows models to be saved (and later uploaded to ClearML)?

---

Good news guys, offline mode is now available 🎊 With the new release of trains 0.16 you can set Task.set_offline to True. Later you can import your session (either the zip file or folder) with Task.import_offline_session.

The offline session includes all console output, metric logs & artifacts. (It does not include stored models, let us know if you would like to see that included as well :)

Hi @shaziaakbar,

Just to make sure I understand correctly, you'd like to store locally the models created in offline mode, and then when importing the offline session to clearml, we will also import the models themselves?

Yes exactly :)

Hello @shaziaakbar

Please apology for not having answered faster. Parameters, plots, artefacts and so on are pulled when uploading an offline session ; but you are right, the model is not.

We are currently working on the issue and will soon release a version that will allow to also pull the model.
