Offline mode checks server configuration

To reproduce:

import os
from clearml import Task

parameters = {
    'experiment': {
        'project_name': 'test',
        'experiment_name': 'test_exp',
        'tags': []
    }
}

Task.set_offline(True)
if not Task.is_offline():
    os.environ['CLEARML_NO_DEFAULT_SERVER'] = '1'
task = Task.init(
    project_name=parameters['experiment']['project_name'],
    task_name=parameters['experiment']['experiment_name'],
    task_type='testing',
    tags=parameters['experiment']['tags'],
    auto_connect_arg_parser=True,
    auto_connect_streams=True,
    auto_connect_frameworks=True,
    auto_resource_monitoring=True,
)
task.connect_configuration(parameters)

This gives:

ValueError: ClearML configuration could not be found (missing ~/clearml.conf or Environment CLEARML_API_HOST) To get started with ClearML: setup your own clearml-server, or create a free account at https://app.community.clear.ml

I would expect that offline mode is not checking for a server

Hi , I also encountered same issue and used update version of ClearML .

My Error Log :

Traceback (most recent call last): File “C:\Users\30863\Project\dataset\yolov5\train.py”, line 630, in <module> main(opt) File “C:\Users\30863\Project\dataset\yolov5\train.py”, line 526, in main train(opt.hyp, opt, device, callbacks) File “C:\Users\30863\Project\dataset\yolov5\train.py”, line 93, in train loggers = Loggers(save_dir, weights, opt, hyp, LOGGER) # loggers instance File “C:\Users\30863\Project\dataset\yolov5\utils\loggers_init_.py”, line 106, in init self.clearml = ClearmlLogger(self.opt, self.hyp) File “C:\Users\30863\Project\dataset\yolov5\utils\loggers\clearml\clearml_utils.py”, line 86, in init self.task = Task.init( File “C:\Users\30863\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\clearml\task.py”, line 583, in init task = cls._create_dev_task( File “C:\Users\30863\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\clearml\task.py”, line 3035, in _create_dev_task task = cls( File “C:\Users\30863\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\clearml\task.py”, line 183, in init super(Task, self).init(**kwargs) File “C:\Users\30863\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\clearml\backend_interface\task\task.py”, line 155, in init super(Task, self).init(id=task_id, session=session, log=log) File “C:\Users\30863\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\clearml\backend_interface\base.py”, line 145, in init super(IdObjectBase, self).init(session, log, **kwargs) File “C:\Users\30863\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\clearml\backend_interface\base.py”, line 39, in init self._session = session or self._get_default_session() File “C:\Users\30863\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\clearml\backend_interface\base.py”, line 115, in _get_default_session InterfaceBase._default_session = Session( File “C:\Users\30863\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\clearml\backend_api\session\session.py”, line 178, in init raise ValueError( ValueError: ClearML configuration could not be found (missing ~/clearml.conf or Environment CLEARML_API_HOST) To get started with ClearML: setup your own clearml-server, or create a free account at https://app.clear.ml/

My Snippet Code :

if not self._offline_mode and ENV_CLEARML_NO_DEFAULT_SERVER.get() and host == self.default_demo_host: raise ValueError( “ClearML configuration could not be found (missing ~/clearml.conf or Environment CLEARML_API_HOST)\n” "To get started with ClearML: setup your own clearml-server, " “or create a free account at https://app.clear.ml” )

@dmus a fix was pushed to the main branch, we’ll update when a version that includes it is released 🙂
