AzureModelStreamer

✓ from runai_model_streamer_azure import AzureModelStreamer

✗ from runai_model_streamer_azure import AzureModelStreamer

Initializes a streamer to fetch a model checkpoint from Azure Blob Storage.

from runai_model_streamer_azure import AzureModelStreamer, StreamConfig config = StreamConfig( container="my-models", blob_prefix="models/resnet50/", connection_string=os.environ.get("AZURE_STORAGE_CONNECTION_STRING", "") ) streamer = AzureModelStreamer(config) local_path = streamer.fetch("model.pt") print(local_path)

Debug

Known issues

breakingVersion 0.13.0 changed the base class of AzureModelStreamer; custom subclasses must inherit from the new base or override fetch() explicitly.

fix

Update subclasses: inherit from runai_model_streamer._base.BaseStreamer instead.

affects: >=0.13.0

deprecatedThe 'StreamConfig.block_size' parameter will be removed in 0.16.0; use 'StreamConfig.read_chunk_size' instead.

fix

Replace block_size with read_chunk_size in StreamConfig.

affects: >=0.14.0 <0.16.0

gotchaConnection string authentication (AZURE_STORAGE_CONNECTION_STRING) is required; using DefaultAzureCredential silently fails if no connection string is set.

fix

Set environment variable AZURE_STORAGE_CONNECTION_STRING or pass connection_string explicitly.

affects: all
