Creating a New NVFlare Code Object Using the Rhino SDK

To create new NVFlare Code or a Code version using the Rhino SDK, complete the following steps.

Note: To learn how to create new NVFlare Code or a Code versions with the Rhino FCP UI, see Creating and Running NVFlare Code and Running Inference.

Prerequisites

Before starting this process, you should have already:

1. Created a Project using the Rhino SDK or the User Interface (UI).

2. Created an Input Data Schema using the Rhino SDK or UI.

3. [Optional] Created an Output Data Schema using the Rhino SDK or UI. If you choose not to create an output Data Schema, the system will auto-generate the Data Schema of the output for your Code.

Import your Python Dependencies

import rhino_health as rh
from rhino_health.lib.endpoints.code.code_objects_dataclass import (
    CodeObject,
    CodeObjectCreateInput,
    CodeTypes,
    CodeRunType
)
import getpass

Note: Remember to change all lines with CHANGE_ME comments above them in all the blocks below.

Log into the Rhino SDK using your FCP Credentials

Your username will be the email address you log into the Rhino FCP platform with.

print("Logging In")
# CHANGE_ME: MY_USERNAME
my_username = "MY_USERNAME"

session = rh.login(username=my_username, password=getpass.getpass())
print("Logged In")

Getting Started Creating Your NVFlare Code

To create NVFlare Code using the Rhino SDK, you will need to first push a container to your workgroup's ECR. Note the name you use for your container image while pushing; you will need to include it in your code below. You will also need your ECR workgroup. If you need help with client storage setup, please refer to Mounting Storage to Your Rhino Client

Get Supporting FCP Information Needed to Create Your Code

At this point, you will need the name of your project, your input Data Schema name, optionally, your output Data Schema name, and your ECR workgroup name. For guidance related to client storage setup, please refer to Mounting Storage to Your Rhino Client. You can also retrieve each object's UUID by following the instructions here: Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

# CHANGE_ME: YOUR_FCP_PROJECT_NAME
project = session.project.get_project_by_name('YOUR_FCP_PROJECT_NAME')

# CHANGE_ME: INPUT_SCHEMA_NAME & Possibly Version Number too
input_schema = session.project.get_data_schema_by_name('INPUT_SCHEMA_NAME', project_uid=project.uid, version=1)

# CHANGE_ME: OUTPUT_SCHEMA_NAME & Possibly Version Number too.
output_schema = session.project.get_data_schema_by_name('OUTPUT_SCHEMA_NAME', project_uid=project.uid, version=1)

# CHANGE_ME: ECR_WORKGROUP
base_ecr_uri = rh.lib.constants.ECRService.PROD_URL + "/ECR_WORKGROUP"

Create your NVFlare Code Object using the Container You Just Pushed

During the creation of your CodeObject, you will provide it with various pieces of data similar to how Code is created within the UI. You will give the CodeObject a name, description, input_data_schema_uids, output_data_schema_uids, project_uid, code_object_type, and the config where you will provide the name of the container you just pushed.

code_object_params = CodeObjectCreateInput(

    # CHANGE_ME: CODE_OBJECT_NAME
    name = "CODE_OBJECT_NAME",

    # CHANGE_ME: CODE_OBJECT_DESCRIPTION
    description = "CODE_OBJECT_DESCRIPTION",

    input_data_schema_uids = [input_schema.uid],
    # output_schema.uid or None to Infer Output Data Schema
    output_data_schema_uids = [output_schema.uid],
    project_uid = project.uid,

    # CHANGE_ME: NVIDIA_FLARE_V2_0, depending on what version of NVFlare you want to use
    code_type = CodeTypes.NVIDIA_FLARE_V2_0,
    # OR code_type = CodeTypes.NVIDIA_FLARE_V2_2,
    # OR code_type = CodeTypes.NVIDIA_FLARE_V2_3,
    # OR code_type = CodeTypes.NVIDIA_FLARE_V2_4,

    # CHANGE_ME: CONTAINER_IMAGE_NAME
    config = {"container_image_uri": f"{base_ecr_uri}:CONTAINER_IMAGE_NAME"}
)
code_object = session.code.create_code_object(code_object_params)
print(f"Got Code Object '{code_object.name}' with UID {code_object.uid}")
