EncoderStore- Global

The EncoderStore API provides methods to store and retrieve encoders.

This API requires the Predictive Intelligence plugin (com.glide.platform_ml) and is provided within the sn_ml namespace.

Parent Topic:Server API reference

EncoderStore - add(Object mlEncoder)

Adds a new encoder object to the store and returns a unique name.

Note: Label values do not need to be unique. For example, if you run this method with the same label 10 times, this method adds 10 different uniquely-named objects to the store.

NameTypeDescription
mlEncoderEncoderEncoder() object to add to the store.
TypeDescription
StringSystem-generated solution name.

The following example shows how to add an encoder to the store. Use Encoder - submitTrainingJob() to run the training job after adding it to the store.

// Create a dataset 
var myData = new sn_ml.DatasetDefinition({

  'tableName' : 'incident',
  'fieldNames' : ['assignment_group', 'short_description', 'description'],
  'encodedQuery' : 'activeANYTHING'

});

// Create a solution 
var myEncoder = new sn_ml.Encoder({

  'label': "my encoder definition",
  'datasets' : [myData],
  'predictedFieldName' : 'assignment_group',
  'inputFieldNames':['short_description']

});

// Add the encoder to the store to later be able to retrieve it.
var my_unique_name = sn_ml.EncoderStore.add(myEncoder);

EncoderStore - deleteObject(String name)

Removes a specified encoder object from the store.

NameTypeDescription
nameStringName of the Encoder() object to be deleted.
TypeDescription
None 

The following example shows how to delete an encoder from the store.

sn_ml.EncoderStore.deleteObject("ml_sn_global_global_encoder");

EncoderStore - get(String name)

Gets an encoder object from a store.

NameTypeDescription
nameStringName of an encoder in a store.
TypeDescription
ObjectEncoder object. Returns an error if the object does not exist.

The following example shows how to get an encoder object from the store using the get() method and view its training status using the Encoder - getActiveVersion() and EncoderVersion - getStatus() methods.

// Get status
var myEncoder = sn_ml.EncoderStore.get('ml_incident_categorization');

gs.print(JSON.stringify(JSON.parse(myEncoder.getActiveVersion().getStatus(), null, 2)));

Output:

{
 "state":"solution_complete",
 "percentComplete":"100",
 "hasJobEnded":"true"
}

EncoderStore - getAllNames(Object options)

Gets the names of all encoder definition records in the store.

NameTypeDescription
optionsObjectOptions for restricting results within the specified properties.
{
  "label": "String",
  "domainName": "String",
  "scope": "String"
};
options.labelStringOptional. Label of your solution object.
options.domainNameStringOptional. Name of the domain for your solution object. Refer to Domain separation and Predictive Intelligence.
options.scopeStringOptional. Name of an application scope for your solution object.
TypeDescription
ArrayList of strings representing encoder object names in the store.

In the following example, the getAllNames() method returns a list of all names in the store.

gs.print(JSON.stringify(JSON.parse(sn_ml.EncoderStore.getAllNames()), null, 2));

Output:

[
  "ml_x_snc_global_global_classification_word_corpus",
  "ml_x_snc_global_global_predictability_estimate",
  "GloVe",
  "ml_x_snc_global_global_encoder",
  "ml_x_snc_global_global_predictability_estimate_1"
]

In the following example, the getAllNames() method returns only names associated with values set in the options parameter.

var options = {
  'label' : 'my encoder definition',
  'domainName' : 'global',
  'scope' : 'global'
};
var solNames = sn_ml.EncoderStore.getAllNames(options);
gs.print(JSON.stringify(JSON.parse(solNames), null, 2));

Output:

[
  "ml_x_snc_global_global_my_encoder_definition"
]

EncoderStore - update(String name, Object mlEncoder)

Updates an encoder object in a store.

NameTypeDescription
nameStringName of the encoder to update.
mlEncoderEncoderEncoder() object properties to update.
TypeDescription
None 

The following example shows how to update an encoder object in the store.

var encoderUpdate = new sn_ml.Encoder({
  'label': 'my encoder definition',
  'dataset' : myData,
  'predictedFieldName' : 'assignment_group',
  'inputFieldNames': ['short_description']
});

sn_ml.EncoderStore.update('ml_sn_global_global_incident_service', encoderUpdate);
