About
Pipeline is a python library that provides a simple way to construct computational flows for AI/ML models. The library is suitable for both development and production environments supporting inference and training/finetuning. This library is also a direct interface to Mystic which provides a compute engine to run pipelines at scale and on enterprise GPUs. This SDK can also be used with Pipeline Core on a private hosted cluster.
The syntax used for defining AI/ML pipelines shares some similarities in syntax to sessions in Tensorflow v1, and Flows found in Prefect.
Installation and quickstart
To install pipeline run:
pip install pipeline-ai
To create a new pipeline navigate to the directory you want to create the pipeline in and run:
pipeline container init -n quickstart
This will create two files in the directory:
pipeline.yaml- The configuration file for the container to run the pipeline.new_pipeline.py- The python file to populate with your pipeline.
Models
Below are some popular models that have been premade by the community on Mystic. You can find more models in the explore section of Mystic, and the source code for these models is also referenced in the table.
| Model | Category | Description | Source | | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | -------- | ------------------------------------------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- | | meta/llama2-7B | LLM | A 7B parameter LLM created by Meta (vllm accelerated) | source | | meta/llama2-13B | LLM | A 13B parameter LLM created by Meta (vllm accelerated) | source | | meta/llama2-70B | LLM | A 70B parameter LLM created by Meta (vllm accelerated) | source | | runwayml/stable-diffusion-1.5 | Vision | Text -> Image | source | | stabilityai/stable-diffusion-xl-refiner-1.0 | Vision | SDXL Text -> Image | source | | matthew/e5_large-v2 | LLM | Text embedding | source | | matthew/musicgen_large | Audio | Music generation | source | | matthew/blip | Vision | Image captioning | source |
Example and tutorials
| Tutorial | Description | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------- | | Entity objects | Use entity objects to persist values and store things | | Cold start optimisations | Premade functions to do heavy tasks seperately | | Input/output types | Defining what goes in and out of your pipes | | Files | Inputing or outputing files from your runs | | Pipeline building | Building pipelines - how it works | | Runs | Running a pipeline remotely - how it works |
Below is some sample python that demonstrates various features and how to use the Pipeline SDK to create a simple pipeline that can be run locally or on Mystic.

model.load()

builder.output(output)
my_pl = builder.get_pipeline()
Development
This project is made with poetry, so firstly setup poetry on your machine.
Once that is done, please run
./setup.sh
With this you should be good to go. This sets up dependencies, pre-commit hooks and pre-push hooks.
You can manually run pre commit hooks with
pre-commit run --all-files
To run tests manually please run
pytest
For developing v4, i.e. containerized pipelines, you need to override the installed pipeline-ai python package on the container. This can be done by bind mounting your target pipeline directory, e.g. using raw docker
