gcloud alpha ml-engine local predict

NAME
gcloud alpha ml-engine local predict - run prediction locally
SYNOPSIS
gcloud alpha ml-engine 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 ml-engine local predict performs prediction locally with the given instances. It requires the TensorFlow SDK be installed locally. The output format mirrors gcloud ai-platform predict (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 JSON format; 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-8 encoded text format; newline delimited.

An example of the text instances file: 

107,4.9,2.5,4.5,1.7
100,5.7,2.8,4.1,1.3
…

This flag accepts "-" for stdin.

OPTIONAL FLAGS
--framework=FRAMEWORK
ML framework used to train this version of the model. If not specified, defaults to '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 to DEFAULT_SERVING_SIGNATURE_DEF_KEY in https://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.

NOTES
This command is currently in alpha and might change without notice. If this command fails with API permission errors despite specifying the correct project, you might be trying to access an API with an invitation-only early access allowlist. These variants are also available:
