EdgeClient.inferences.block_until

EdgeClient.inferences.block_until_complete(inference_identifier, poll_interval=0.01, timeout=30)

This method blocks the execution until the result of an inference is marked as finished or it reaches the timeout seconds (if it is different than None). It refreshes the result information for each poll_interval seconds.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description	Example
`inference_identifier`	`str`	Inference identifier	`'14856eb1-0ad8-49e7-9da3-887acb80fea5'`
`poll_interval`	`int`	Time interval in seconds between polls. Defaults to 0.01.	`10`
`timeout`	`int`	Seconds amount to wait until timeout. `None` indicates waiting forever. Defaults to 30.	`100`

Returns

A Inference object returned from Inference API

Examples

# submit inferences
img_folder = "./images"
inferences = []
for img in os.listdir(img_folder):
input_object = InputSource(
    key="image", # input filename defined by model author
    data=open(os.path.join(img_folder, img), 'rb').read()
)
with EdgeClient('localhost', 55000) as client:
    inference = client.inferences.perform_inference("<model-id>", "<model-version>", input_object, explain=False, tags=None)
inferences.append(inference)

# query results 
with EdgeClient('localhost', 55000) as client:
results = [client.inferences.block_until_complete(inference.identifier) for inferences in inferences]
