"""
In the previous tutorial we saw how to create new components and assemble them
into a Pipeline for a simplified workflow execution. The Pipeline executes
the components in the order in which they are given, *assuming* that the
outputs of a component will fit as inputs of the following component.
This is not always true, thus you can use the ``Adapter`` component to
compensate for mismatches. This component allows to define a policy to
rearrange intermediate results between two components.
Moreover, it is good for reproducibility to keep track of the pipeline
configuration used to achieve some outstanding ML results. It would be a shame
to forget how you achieved state-of-the-art results!
itwinai allows to export the Pipeline form Python code to configuration file,
to persist both parameters and workflow structure. Exporting to configuration
file assumes that each component class resides in a separate python file, so
that the pipeline configuration is agnostic from the current python script.
Once the Pipeline has been exported to configuration file (YAML), it can
be executed directly from CLI:
>>> itwinai exec-pipeline --config my-pipeline.yaml --override nested.key=42
The itwinai CLI allows for dynamic override of configuration fields, by means
of nested key notation. Also list indices are supported:
>>> itwinai exec-pipeline --config my-pipe.yaml --override nested.list.2.0=42
