# Hello World - Python BentoML
A simple machine learning model with API serving that is written in python and
using [BentoML](https://github.com/bentoml/BentoML). BentoML is an open source
framework for high performance ML model serving, which supports all major machine
learning frameworks including Keras, Tensorflow, PyTorch, Fast.ai, XGBoost and etc.
This sample will walk you through the steps of creating and deploying a machine learning
model using python. It will use BentoML to package a classifier model trained
on the Iris dataset. Afterward, it will create a container image and
deploy the image to Knative.
Knative deployment guide with BentoML is also available in the
[BentoML documentation](https://docs.bentoml.org/en/latest/deployment/knative.html)
## Before you begin
- A Kubernetes cluster with Knative installed. Follow the
[Knative installation instructions](https://knative.dev/docs/install/) if you need to
create one.
- [Docker](https://www.docker.com) installed and running on your local machine,
and a Docker Hub account configured. Docker Hub will be used for a container registry).
- Python 3.6 or above installed and running on your local machine.
- Install `scikit-learn` and `bentoml` packages:
```bash
pip install scikit-learn
pip install bentoml
```
## Recreating sample code
Run the following code on your local machine, to train a machine learning model and deploy it
as API endpoint with Knative Serving.
1. BentoML creates a model API server, via prediction service abstraction. In
`iris_classifier.py`, it defines a prediction service that requires a scikit-learn
model, asks BentoML to figure out the required pip dependencies, also defines an
API, which is the entry point for accessing this machine learning service.
```python
from bentoml import env, artifacts, api, BentoService
from bentoml.handlers import DataframeHandler
from bentoml.artifact import SklearnModelArtifact
@env(auto_pip_dependencies=True)
@artifacts([SklearnModelArtifact('model')])
class IrisClassifier(BentoService):
@api(DataframeHandler)
def predict(self, df):
return self.artifacts.model.predict(df)
```
1. In `main.py`, it uses the classic
[iris flower data set](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iris_flower_data_set)
to train a classification model which can predict the species of an iris flower with
given data and then save the model with BentoML to local disk.
```python
from sklearn import svm
from sklearn import datasets
from iris_classifier import IrisClassifier
if __name__ == "__main__":
# Load training data
iris = datasets.load_iris()
X, y = iris.data, iris.target
# Model Training
clf = svm.SVC(gamma='scale')
clf.fit(X, y)
# Create a iris classifier service instance
iris_classifier_service = IrisClassifier()
# Pack the newly trained model artifact
iris_classifier_service.pack('model', clf)
# Save the prediction service to disk for model serving
saved_path = iris_classifier_service.save()
```
1. Run the `main.py` file to train and save the model:
```bash
python main.py
```
1. Use BentoML CLI to check saved model's information.
```bash
bentoml get IrisClassifier:latest
```
Example:
```bash
> bentoml get IrisClassifier:latest
{
"name": "IrisClassifier",
"version": "20200305171229_0A1411",
"uri": {
"type": "LOCAL",
"uri": "/Users/bozhaoyu/bentoml/repository/IrisClassifier/20200305171229_0A1411"
},
"bentoServiceMetadata": {
"name": "IrisClassifier",
"version": "20200305171229_0A1411",
"createdAt": "2020-03-06T01:12:49.431011Z",
"env": {
"condaEnv": "name: bentoml-IrisClassifier\nchannels:\n- defaults\ndependencies:\n- python=3.7.3\n- pip\n",
"pipDependencies": "bentoml==0.6.2\nscikit-learn",
"pythonVersion": "3.7.3"
},
"artifacts": [
{
"name": "model",
"artifactType": "SklearnModelArtifact"
}
],
"apis": [
{
"name": "predict",
"handlerType": "DataframeHandler",
"docs": "BentoService API",
"handlerConfig": {
"orient": "records",
"typ": "frame",
"input_dtypes": null,
"output_orient": "records"
}
}
]
}
}
```
4. Test run API server. BentoML can start an API server from the saved model. Use
BentoML CLI command to start an API server locally and test it with the `curl` command.
```bash
bentoml serve IrisClassifier:latest
```
In another terminal window, make `curl` request with sample data to the API server
and get prediction result:
```bash
curl -v -i \
--header "Content-Type: application/json" \
--request POST \
--data '[[5.1, 3.5, 1.4, 0.2]]' \
127.0.0.1:5000/predict
```
## Building and deploying the sample
BentoML supports creating an API server docker image from its saved model directory, where
a Dockerfile is automatically generated when saving the model.
1. To build an API model server docker image, replace `{username}` with your Docker Hub
username and run the following commands.
```bash
# jq might not be installed on your local system, please follow jq install
# instruction at https://stedolan.github.io/jq/download/
saved_path=$(bentoml get IrisClassifier:latest -q | jq -r ".uri.uri")
# Build the container on your local machine
docker build - t {username}/iris-classifier $saved_path
# Push the container to docker registry
docker push {username}/iris-classifier
```
1. In `service.yaml`, replace `{username}` with your Docker hub username:
```yaml
apiVersion: serving.knative.dev/v1
kind: Service
metadata:
name: iris-classifier
namespace: default
spec:
template:
spec:
containers:
- image: docker.io/{username}/iris-classifier
ports:
- containerPort: 5000 # Port to route to
livenessProbe:
httpGet:
path: /healthz
initialDelaySeconds: 3
periodSeconds: 5
readinessProbe:
httpGet:
path: /healthz
initialDelaySeconds: 3
periodSeconds: 5
failureThreshold: 3
timeoutSeconds: 60
```
1. Deploy the Service to Knative Serving with `kubectl` by running the command:
```bash
kubectl apply --filename service.yaml
```
1. Now that your service is created, Knative performs the following steps:
- Create a new immutable revision for this version of the app.
- Network programming to create a route, ingress, service, and load
balance for your application.
- Automatically scale your pods up and down (including to zero active
pods).
1. Run the following command to find the domain URL for your service:
```bash
kubectl get ksvc iris-classifier --output=custom-columns=NAME:.metadata.name,URL:.status.url
NAME URL
iris-classifier http://iris-classifer.default.example.com
```
1. Replace the request URL with the URL return in the previous command, and execute the
command to get prediction result from the deployed model API endpoint.
```bash
curl -v -i \
--header "Content-Type: application/json" \
--request POST \
--data '[[5.1, 3.5, 1.4, 0.2]]' \
http://iris-classifier.default.example.com/predict
[0]
```
## Removing the sample app deployment
To remove the application from your cluster, delete the service record:
```bash
kubectl delete --filename service.yaml
```
