tensorboard-termplot

Terminal-plot for Tensorboard

A plotter for tensorboard, directly within your terminal. This is useful when you are training your neural network on a remote server, and you just want to quickly peek at the training curve without launching a tensorboard instance and mess with forwarding ports.

Install

You can install the package published in PyPI with

$ pip install tensorboard-termplot
# or install with an isolated environment
# $ pipx install tensorboard-termplot

Usage

$ tensorboard-termplot FOLDER

For example,

$ tensorboard-termplot ~/my_amazing_nn/runs

where runs is the folder that tensorboard had created.

Example

Running the executable on a tensorboard output folder:

Or with the consolidate flag -c/--consolidate to combine multiple stats with a common prefix (most stats in the bottom figure had empty values):

positional arguments:
  FOLDER                Folder of a tensorboard runs

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --canvas-color CANVAS_COLOR
                        set the color of the plot canvas (the area where the

  --colorless           Remove color.
  -d, --dark-theme      A collection of flags. If set, it is equivalent to
                        setting canvas-color and axes-color to black, and

                        individually.

  --plotsize WIDTH,HEIGHT
                        Manually set the size of each subplot, e.g., 50,20.
  --force-label         Force showing label even for plot with one series.
  --no-iter-color       Stop iterating through different colors per plot.
  -c, --consolidate     Consolidate based on prefix.
  -f, --follow          Run in a loop to update display periodic.
  -n secs, --interval secs
                        seconds to wait between updates
