How to check a value used in in the run?

[georgemilosh]

So when the run has been initiated by Learn2_new.py we have two relevant files config.json and runs.json, where runs.json overwrite some arguments in config.json. Do you have a ready-made function which automatically extracts the correct value based on both of these files?

@AlessandroLovo , do you have a quick suggestion? You probably faced with this before

[AlessandroLovo]

There is no ready-made function, but the implementation is relatively easy.

folder = 'myfolder'
config_dict = ut.json2dict(f'{folder}/config.json')
runs = ut.json2dict(f'{folder}/runs.json')

Let's say now you are interested in the first run

run = list(runs.values())[0]

Then to extract the argument arg, you can do as follows:

run_kwargs = ut.set_values_recursive(config_dict, run['args'])
arg_value = ut.extract_nested(run_kwargs, arg)

A one liner option could instead be

arg_value = ut.extact_nested(run['args'], arg, ut.extract_nested(config_dict, arg))

The third argument of ut.extract_nested is the default value to return if it is not present in the dicionary
