ProgressBar([total, progress, quiet])

class eta.core.utils.ProgressBar(total=None, show_percentage=True, show_iteration=True, show_elapsed_time=True, show_remaining_time=True, show_iter_rate=True, iters_str='it', start_msg=None, complete_msg=None, use_bits=False, use_bytes=False, max_width=None, num_decimals=1, max_fps=10, quiet=None)¶

Class for printing a self-updating progress bar to stdout that tracks the progress of an iterative process towards completion.

The simplest use of ProgressBar is to create an instance and then call it (__call__) with an iterable argument, which will pass through elements of the iterable when iterating over it, updating the progress bar each time an element is emitted.

Alternatively, ProgressBar`s can track the progress of a task towards a total iteration count, where the current iteration is updated manually by calling either `update(), which will increment the iteration count by 1, or via set_iteration(), which lets you manually specify the new iteration status. By default, both methods will automatically redraw the bar. If manual control over drawing is required, you can pass draw=False to either method and then manually call draw() as desired.

It is highly recommended that you always invoke ProgressBar`s using their context manager interface via the `with keyword, which will automatically handle calling start() and close() to appropriately initialize and finalize the task. Among other things, this ensures that stdout redirection is appropriately ended when an exception is encountered.

When start() is called on the a ProgressBar, an internal timer is started to track the elapsed time of the task. In addition, stdout is automatically cached between calls to draw() and flushed each time draw() is called, which means that you can freely mix print statements into your task without interfering with the progress bar. When you are done tracking the task, call the close() method to finalize the progress bar. Both of these actions are automatically taken when the bar’s context manager interface is invoked or when it is called with an iterable.

If you want want to full manual control over the progress bar, call start() to start the task, call pause() before any print statements, and call close() when the task is finalized.

ProgressBar can optionally be configured to print any of the following statistics about the task:

the elapsed time since the task was started
the estimated time remaining until the task completes
the current iteration rate of the task, in iterations per second
customized status messages passed via the suffix argument

Example (wrapping an iterator):

import time
import eta.core.utils as etau

with etau.ProgressBar() as pb:
    for _ in pb(range(100)):
        time.sleep(0.05)

Example (with print statements interleaved):

import time
import eta.core.utils as etau

with etau.ProgressBar(100) as pb:
    while not pb.complete:
        if pb.iteration in {25, 50, 75}:
            print("Progress = %.2f" % pb.progress)

        time.sleep(0.05)
        pb.update()

Example (tracking a bit total):

import random
import time
import eta.core.utils as etau

with etau.ProgressBar(1024 ** 2, use_bits=True) as pb:
    while not pb.complete:
        pb.update(random.randint(1, 10 * 1024))
        time.sleep(0.05)

Class for printing a self-updating progress bar to stdout that tracks the progress of an iterative process towards completion.

The simplest use of ProgressBar is to create an instance and then call it (__call__) with an iterable argument, which will pass through elements of the iterable when iterating over it, updating the progress bar each time an element is emitted.

Alternatively, ProgressBar`s can track the progress of a task towards a total iteration count, where the current iteration is updated manually by calling either `update(), which will increment the iteration count by 1, or via set_iteration(), which lets you manually specify the new iteration status. By default, both methods will automatically redraw the bar. If manual control over drawing is required, you can pass draw=False to either method and then manually call draw() as desired.

It is highly recommended that you always invoke ProgressBar`s using their context manager interface via the `with keyword, which will automatically handle calling start() and close() to appropriately initialize and finalize the task. Among other things, this ensures that stdout redirection is appropriately ended when an exception is encountered.

When start() is called on the a ProgressBar, an internal timer is started to track the elapsed time of the task. In addition, stdout is automatically cached between calls to draw() and flushed each time draw() is called, which means that you can freely mix print statements into your task without interfering with the progress bar. When you are done tracking the task, call the close() method to finalize the progress bar. Both of these actions are automatically taken when the bar’s context manager interface is invoked or when it is called with an iterable.

If you want want to full manual control over the progress bar, call start() to start the task, call pause() before any print statements, and call close() when the task is finalized.

ProgressBar can optionally be configured to print any of the following statistics about the task:

the elapsed time since the task was started
the estimated time remaining until the task completes
the current iteration rate of the task, in iterations per second
customized status messages passed via the suffix argument

Example (wrapping an iterator):

import time
import eta.core.utils as etau

with etau.ProgressBar() as pb:
    for _ in pb(range(100)):
        time.sleep(0.05)

Example (with print statements interleaved):

import time
import eta.core.utils as etau

with etau.ProgressBar(100) as pb:
    while not pb.complete:
        if pb.iteration in {25, 50, 75}:
            print("Progress = %.2f" % pb.progress)

        time.sleep(0.05)
        pb.update()

Example (tracking a bit total):

import random
import time
import eta.core.utils as etau

with etau.ProgressBar(1024 ** 2, use_bits=True) as pb:
    while not pb.complete:
        pb.update(random.randint(1, 10 * 1024))
        time.sleep(0.05)

class fiftyone.core.utils.UniqueFilenameMaker(output_dir=None, rel_dir=None, alt_dir=None, chunk_size=None, default_ext=None, ignore_exts=False, ignore_existing=False, idempotent=True)¶

Bases: object

A class that generates unique output paths in a directory.

This class provides a get_output_path() method that generates unique filenames in the specified output directory.

If an input path is provided, its filename is maintained, unless a name conflict in output_dir would occur, in which case an index of the form "-%d" % count is appended to the filename.

If no input filename is provided, an output filename of the form <output_dir>/<count><default_ext> is generated, where count is the number of files in output_dir.

If no output_dir is provided, then unique filenames with no base directory are generated.

If a rel_dir is provided, then this path will be stripped from each input path to generate the identifier of each file (rather than just its basename). This argument allows for populating nested subdirectories in output_dir that match the shape of the input paths.

If alt_dir is provided, you can use get_alt_path() to retrieve the equivalent path rooted in this directory rather than output_dir.

Parameters

output_dir (None) – a directory in which to generate output paths
rel_dir (None) – an optional relative directory to strip from each path. The path is converted to an absolute path (if necessary) via fiftyone.core.storage.normalize_path()
alt_dir (None) – an optional alternate directory in which to generate paths when get_alt_path() is called
chunk_size (None) – if provided, output paths will be nested in subdirectories of output_dir with at most this many files per subdirectory. Has no effect if a rel_dir is provided
default_ext (None) – the file extension to use when generating default output paths
ignore_exts (False) – whether to omit file extensions when checking for duplicate filenames
ignore_existing (False) – whether to ignore existing files in output_dir for output filename generation purposes
idempotent (True) – whether to return the same output path when the same input path is provided multiple times (True) or to generate new output paths (False)

Methods:

`seen_input_path`(input_path)	Checks whether we’ve already seen the given input path.
`get_output_path`([input_path, output_ext])	Returns a unique output path.
`get_alt_path`(output_path[, alt_dir])	Returns the alternate path for the given output path generated by `get_output_path()`.
