gcloud alpha ai-platform local predict

NAME
gcloud alpha ai-platform local predict - run prediction locally
SYNOPSIS
gcloud alpha ai-platform local predict--model-dir=MODEL_DIR(--json-instances=JSON_INSTANCES    |--json-request=JSON_REQUEST    |--text-instances=TEXT_INSTANCES)[--framework=FRAMEWORK][--signature-name=SIGNATURE_NAME][GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG]
DESCRIPTION
(ALPHA)gcloud alpha ai-platform local predictperforms prediction locally with the given instances. It requires theTensorFlow SDK be installedlocally. The output format mirrorsgcloud ai-platformpredict (online prediction).

You cannot use this command with custom prediction routines.

REQUIRED FLAGS
--model-dir=MODEL_DIR
Path to the model.
Exactly one of these must be specified:
--json-instances=JSON_INSTANCES
Path to a local file from which instances are read. Instances are in JSONformat; newline delimited.

An example of the JSON instances file:

{"images":[0.0,…,0.1],"key":3}{"images":[0.0,…,0.1],"key":2}

This flag accepts "-" for stdin.

--json-request=JSON_REQUEST
Path to a local file containing the body of JSON request.

An example of a JSON request:

{"instances":[{"x":[1,2],"y":[3,4]},{"x":[-1,-2],"y":[-3,-4]}]}

This flag accepts "-" for stdin.

--text-instances=TEXT_INSTANCES
Path to a local file from which instances are read. Instances are in UTF-8encoded text format; newline delimited.

An example of the text instances file:

107,4.9,2.5,4.5,1.7100,5.7,2.8,4.1,1.3…

This flag accepts "-" for stdin.

OPTIONAL FLAGS
--framework=FRAMEWORK
ML framework used to train this version of the model. If not specified, defaultsto 'tensorflow'.FRAMEWORK must be one of:scikit-learn,tensorflow,xgboost.
--signature-name=SIGNATURE_NAME
Name of the signature defined in the SavedModel to use for this job. Defaults toDEFAULT_SERVING_SIGNATURE_DEF_KEY inhttps://www.tensorflow.org/api_docs/python/tf/compat/v1/saved_model/signature_constants,which is "serving_default". Only applies to TensorFlow models.
GCLOUD WIDE FLAGS
These flags are available to all commands:--access-token-file,--account,--billing-project,--configuration,--flags-file,--flatten,--format,--help,--impersonate-service-account,--log-http,--project,--quiet,--trace-token,--user-output-enabled,--verbosity.

Run$gcloud help for details.
