Can I use TimeEval without docker?

[JeonghwaYoo-R]

I want to run TimeEval on my environment.

My environment is Windows 10.

Can I use TimeEval without docker? then how can I do?

When using docker, the following error occurs:

docker.errors.DockerException: Install pypiwin32 package to enable npipe:// support

Disclaimer: TimeEval is not tested on Windows, and we are, thus, not supporting it officially.

If you don't use the DockerAdapter, TimeEval should run fine without a Docker-installation. Where do you get the Exception from? Can you execute the following script?

#!/usr/bin/env python3
from pathlib import Path

from timeeval import TimeEval, DatasetManager, DefaultMetrics, Algorithm, TrainingType, InputDimensionality
from timeeval.adapters import FunctionAdapter
from timeeval.params import FixedParameters
from timeeval.data_types import AlgorithmParameter
import numpy as np


def your_algorithm_function(data: AlgorithmParameter, args: dict) -> np.ndarray:
    if isinstance(data, np.ndarray):
        return np.zeros_like(data)
    else:  # data = pathlib.Path
        return np.genfromtxt(data)[0]


def main():
    dm = DatasetManager(Path("tests/example_data"))  # or test-cases directory
    datasets = dm.select()

    algorithms = [Algorithm(
        name="MyPythonFunctionAlgorithm",
        main=FunctionAdapter(your_algorithm_function),
        data_as_file=False
    )]

    timeeval = TimeEval(dm, datasets, algorithms)
    timeeval.run()
    results = timeeval.get_results(aggregated=False)
    print(results)


if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()
