Session Goal

The primary goal of this session was to implement and integrate a RunManager class in Python to enhance the organization and usability of the codebase, particularly for managing file paths and operations related to data runs.

Key Activities

  • Developed a detailed plan for the RunManager class, focusing on encapsulating logic related to runs, paths, outputs, and status.
  • Implemented the RunManager class in Python, managing file paths, checking file existence, reading logs, and handling metadata.
  • Successfully generated the RunManager class and located it in /utils/run_manager.py.
  • Refactored query_tab.py to integrate RunManager functionality, including creating a run_uid, saving metadata, and storing the run_uid in session state.
  • Centralized and refined path management in the data processing pipeline to prevent fragility and ensure multi-user compatibility.
  • Conducted an architectural review and outlined integration steps for RunManager in the app and backend.
  • Refactored 10_run_full_pipeline.py script to implement a RunManager-based structure with modular paths and run-specific handling.
  • Made final adjustments to improve the robustness of Python scripts, including fixing variable references and organizing logs.
  • Validated the make_run_dir(run_uid) mapping and RunManager behavior, ensuring a robust and future-proof structure.

Achievements

  • Completed the implementation and integration of the RunManager class.
  • Improved the robustness and modularity of the Python scripts used in data processing.
  • Ensured a future-proof structure for managing run outputs and metadata.

Pending Tasks

  • Refactor additional scripts to utilize the RunManager structure.
  • Implement minor enhancements for error handling and debugging as suggested during validation.
