Version 0.25.0

Major Features and Improvements

  • Add RecordBatches interface to TFXIO. This interface returns an iterable of record batches, which can be used outside of Apache Beam or TensorFlow to access data.

  • From this release TFX-BSL will also be hosting nightly packages on https://pypi-nightly.tensorflow.org. To install the nightly package use the following command:

    pip install --extra-index-url https://pypi-nightly.tensorflow.org/simple tfx-bsl
    

    Note: These nightly packages are unstable and breakages are likely to happen. The fix could often take a week or more depending on the complexity involved for the wheels to be available on the PyPI cloud service. You can always use the stable version of TFX-BSL available on PyPI by running the command pip install tfx-bsl .

Bug Fixes and Other Changes

  • TensorToArrow returns LargeListArray/LargeBinaryArray in place of ListArray/BinaryArray.
  • array_util.IndexIn now supports LargeBinaryArray inputs.
  • Depends on apache-beam[gcp]>=2.25,<3.
  • Depends on tensorflow-metadata>=0.25,<0.26.

Breaking changes

  • Coders (Example, CSV) do not support outputting ListArray/BinaryArray any more. They can only output LargeListArray/LargeBinaryArray.

Version 0.24.0

Major Features and Improvements

  • You can now build tfx_bsl wheel with python setup.py bdist_wheel. Note:
    • If you want to build a manylinux2010 wheel you'll still need to use Docker.
    • Bazel is still required.
  • You can now build manylinux2010 tfx_bsl wheel for Python 3.8.
  • From this version we will be releasing python 3.8 wheels.

Bug Fixes and Other Changes

  • Stopped depending on six.
  • Depends on absl-py>=0.9,<0.11.

Version 0.23.0

Major Features and Improvements

  • Several TFXIO symbols are made public, which means:
  • TFX users (both pipeline and component authors), and TFX libraries (TFDV, TFMA, TFT) users may start using these symbols.
  • We will be subject to semantic versioning once tfx_bsl goes beyond 1.0.
  • TFRecord based TFXIO implementations now support reading from multiple file patterns.
  • Implemented the TensorFlowDataset() interface for TFExampleRecord TFXIO.
  • Starting from this version, tfx_bsl has no binary dependency on pyarrow (libarrow.so). As a result:
    • Package tfx_bsl will be able to work with a wider range of pyarrow versions. We will relax the version requirements in setup.py in the next release.
    • Custom built tfx_bsl does not have to maintain ABI compatiblity with a specific pyarrow installation. Custom builds don't need to be manylinux-conformant.

Bug Fixes and Other Changes

  • Starting from this version, the windows wheel will be built with VS 2015.
  • run_all_tests will fail with exit code -2 if no tests are discovered.
  • Stopped requiring avro-python3.
  • Example coders will ignore duplicate feature names in the TFMD schema (only the first one counts). It is a temporary measure until TFDV can check and prevent duplications. DO NOT rely on this behavior.
  • CsvTFXIO now allows skipping CSV headers (set skip_header_lines).
  • CsvTFXIO now requires telemetry_descriptors to construct.
  • Depends on apache-beam[gcp]>=2.23,<3.
  • Depends on pyarrow>=0.17,<0.18.

  • Added arrow.table_util.RecordBatchTake: similar to SliceTableByRowIndices but operates against a pa.RecordBatch.
  • Requires apache-beam>=2.17,<3

  • Defined an abstract subclass of TFXIO, RecordBasedTFXIO to model record based file formats.

Bug Fixes and Other Changes

  • Utilities in tfx_bsl.arrow.array_util that:

    • previously takes ListArray now can also accept LargeListArray.
    • previously takes StringArray/BinaryArray now can also accept LargeStringArray and LargeBinaryArray.

    As a result: GetElementLengths now returns an Int64Array. GetFlattenedArrayParentIndices may return an Int64Array or an Int32Array depending on the input type.

Release 0.21.0

Major Features and Improvements

  • Introduced TFXIO, the interface for Standardized TFX Inputs

  • Added the first implementation of TFXIO, for tf.Example on TFRecords.

Release 0.15.3

Major Features and Improvements

  • Requires apache-beam>=2.16,<2.17 as 2.17 requires a pyarrow version that we don't support yet.

Bug Fixes and Other Changes

Breaking Changes

  • Behavior of csv_decoder.ColumnTypeInferrer was changed. A new column type, ColumnType.UNKNOWN was added to denote that the inferrer could not determine the type of that column (instead of making a guess of FLOAT). Summary of behavior change (values in the examples are from the same column):

    • <int>, <empty>: before: FLOAT; after: INT
    • <empty>, ... , <empty>: before: FLOAT; after: UNKNOWN

Major Features and Improvements

  • Added dependency on tensorflow>=1.15,<2.2. Starting from 1.15, package tensorflow comes with GPU support. Users won't need to choose between tensorflow and tensorflow-gpu.
    • Caveat: tensorflow 2.0.0 is an exception and does not have GPU support. If tensorflow-gpu 2.0.0 is installed before installing tfx-bsl, it will be replaced with tensorflow 2.0.0. Re-install tensorflow-gpu 2.0.0 if needed.
  • Added dependency on tensorflow-serving-api>=1.15,<3.
  • Added a python PTransform, tfx_bsl.beam.RunInference that enables batch inference.

  • Added dependency on apache-beam[gcp]>=2.16,<3.
  • Added dependency on tensorflow-metadata>=0.15,<0.16.
