time_limit and metric arguments are no longer available?

Greetings to everyone,

As a part of an evaluation I wanted to try autokeras on multiple different datasets. My data are tabular, so I use StructuredDataClassifier and StructuredDataRegressor. The problem is that I cannot set a custom evaluation metric, nor set the time_limit of the model.fit function. In the examples I found online, everyone is setting their desired time_limit, but when I try to run a fit function with this parameter, it outputs the error: Unrecognized keyword arguments: {'time_limit': 360}. Is this functionality removed from the newest version of autokeras? Also, about the metric, I want to use AUC, as the performance metric, but neither the metric variable is recognized.

autokeras 1.0 python 3.6.9 OS Ubuntu 18.04

@haifeng-jin so is there a way to set a strict time limit? If not, this is a step backwards in my opinion, as it makes autokeras unavailable for quantitative performance evaluation under strict time restrictions (99% of all the published works evaluate a tool or library under some time constraints). Also, when you talk about the initializer, you mean the StructuredDataClassifier call, correct?

Thank you in advance.

Currently, the is no way to limit the time. However, all the intermediate results and models are saved on disk. You may try to see what’s in the folder. Those kids and models are generated by KerasTuner. Thanks.
