Note: The code for this guide can be found in the examples/developer_guide/2_1_real_world_phishing
directory of the Morpheus repository.
The previous example demonstrated how to create a simple stage and use it in the context of a pipeline, we’ll move on to a more advanced example that is representative of what we might want to do in a real-world situation. Given a set of records, each of which represents an email, suppose we want to predict which records correspond to fraudulent emails.
As part of this process, we might want to use a classification model trained on various pieces of metadata, such as recipient count, in addition to the raw content of each email. If we suppose this is true for our example, we need to build and connect a pre-processing stage to attach this information to each record before applying our classifier.
For this task, we’ll need to define a new stage, which we will call our RecipientFeaturesStage
, that will:
Receive an input corresponding to an email.
Count the number of recipients in the email’s metadata.
Emit a Morpheus
MessageMeta
object that will contain the record content along with the augmented metadata.
For this stage, the code will be similar to the previous example with a few notable changes. We will be working with the MessageMeta
class. This is a Morpheus message containing a cuDF DataFrame. Since we will expect our new stage to operate on MessageMeta
types, our new accepted_types
method is defined as:
def accepted_types(self) -> typing.Tuple:
return (MessageMeta,)
Next, we will update our on_data
method to perform the actual work. We grab a reference to the incoming message’s df
attribute. It is important to note that message
is a reference, and any changes made to it or its members (such as df
) will be performed in place on the existing message instance.
def on_data(self, message: MessageMeta) -> MessageMeta:
# Open the DataFrame from the incoming message for in-place modification
with message.mutable_dataframe() as df:
df['to_count'] = df['To'].str.count('@')
df['bcc_count'] = df['BCC'].str.count('@')
df['cc_count'] = df['CC'].str.count('@')
df['total_recipients'] = df['to_count'] + df['bcc_count'] + df['cc_count']
# Attach features to string data
df['data'] = (df['to_count'].astype(str) + '[SEP]' + df['bcc_count'].astype(str) + '[SEP]' +
df['cc_count'].astype(str) + '[SEP]' + df['total_recipients'].astype(str) +
'[SEP]' + df['Message'])
# Return the message for the next stage
return message
In the above example we added five new fields to the DataFrame. Since these fields and their types are known to us ahead of time, as an optimization we can ask Morpheus to pre-allocate these new fields when the DataFrame is first constructed. To do this we populate the _needed_columns
attribute in our constructor:
def __init__(self, config: Config):
super().__init__(config)
# This stage adds new columns to the DataFrame, as an optimization we define the columns that are needed,
# ensuring that these columns are pre-allocated with null values. This action is performed by Morpheus for any
# stage defining this attribute.
self._needed_columns.update({
'to_count': TypeId.INT32,
'bcc_count': TypeId.INT32,
'cc_count': TypeId.INT32,
'total_recipients': TypeId.INT32,
'data': TypeId.STRING
})
Refer to the Stage Constructors section for more details.
If instead mutating the DataFrame in place is undesirable, we could make a copy of the DataFrame with the MessageMeta.copy_dataframe
method and return a new MessageMeta
. Note, however, that this would come at the cost of performance and increased memory usage. We could do this by changing the on_data
method to:
def on_data(self, message: MessageMeta) -> MessageMeta:
# Get a copy of the DataFrame from the incoming message
df = message.copy_dataframe()
df['to_count'] = df['To'].str.count('@')
df['bcc_count'] = df['BCC'].str.count('@')
df['cc_count'] = df['CC'].str.count('@')
df['total_recipients'] = df['to_count'] + df['bcc_count'] + df['cc_count']
# Attach features to string data
df['data'] = (df['to_count'].astype(str) + '[SEP]' + df['bcc_count'].astype(str) + '[SEP]' +
df['cc_count'].astype(str) + '[SEP]' + df['total_recipients'].astype(str) + '[SEP]' +
df['Message'])
# Return a new message with our updated DataFrame for the next stage
return MessageMeta(df)
Since the purpose of this stage is specifically tied to pre-processing text data for an NLP pipeline, when we register the stage, we will explicitly limit the stage to NLP pipelines:
@register_stage("recipient-features", modes=[PipelineModes.NLP])
class RecipientFeaturesStage(SinglePortStage):
Our _build_single
method remains unchanged from the previous example; even though we are modifying the incoming messages, our input and output types remain the same.

return node, input_stream[1]
Now we’ll use the RecipientFeaturesStage
that we just made in a real-world pipeline to detect fraudulent emails. The pipeline we will be building makes use of the TritonInferenceStage
which is a pre-defined Morpheus stage designed to support the execution of Natural Language Processing (NLP) models via NVIDIA’s Triton Inference Server. NVIDIA Triton Inference Server allows for GPU accelerated ML/DL and seamless co-location and execution of a wide variety of model frameworks. For our application, we will be using the phishing-bert-onnx
model, which is included with Morpheus in the models/triton-model-repo/
directory.
It’s important to note here that Triton is a service that is external to the Morpheus pipeline and often will not reside on the same machine(s) as the rest of the pipeline. The TritonInferenceStage
will use HTTP and gRPC network protocols to allow us to interact with the machine learning models that are hosted by the Triton server.
Launching Triton
Triton will need to be running while we execute our pipeline. For simplicity, we will launch it locally inside of a Docker container.
Note: This step assumes you have both Docker and the NVIDIA Container Toolkit installed.
From the root of the Morpheus project we will launch a Triton Docker container with the models
directory mounted into the container:
docker run --rm -ti --gpus=all -p8000:8000 -p8001:8001 -p8002:8002 \
-v $PWD/models:/models \
nvcr.io/nvidia/tritonserver:23.06-py3 \
tritonserver --model-repository=/models/triton-model-repo \
--exit-on-error=false \
--log-info=true \
--strict-readiness=false \
--disable-auto-complete-config \
--model-control-mode=explicit \
--load-model=phishing-bert-onnx
Once we have Triton running, we can verify that it is healthy using curl. The /v2/health/live
endpoint should return a 200 status code:
curl -v "localhost:8000/v2/health/live"
We can also query Triton for the available models:
curl -X POST "localhost:8000/v2/repository/index"
Let’s ask Triton for some information about the phishing-bert-onnx
model which we are going to be using, parsing the large JSON output with jq:
curl "localhost:8000/v2/models/phishing-bert-onnx/config" | jq

Defining our Pipeline
Let’s set up the paths for our input and output files. For simplicity, we assume that the MORPHEUS_ROOT
environment variable is set to the root of the Morpheus project repository. In a production deployment, it may be more prudent to replace our usage of environment variables with command-line flags or a dedicated configuration management library.
import os
import morpheus
from morpheus.utils.logger import configure_logging
def run_pipeline():
# Enable the default logger
configure_logging(log_level=logging.INFO)
triton_url = os.environ.get('TRITON_URL', 'localhost:8001')
root_dir = os.environ['MORPHEUS_ROOT']
out_dir = os.environ.get('OUT_DIR', '/tmp')
labels_file = os.path.join(morpheus.DATA_DIR, 'labels_phishing.txt')
vocab_file = os.path.join(morpheus.DATA_DIR, 'bert-base-uncased-hash.txt')
input_file = os.path.join(root_dir, 'examples/data/email_with_addresses.jsonlines')
results_file = os.path.join(out_dir, 'detections.jsonlines')
To start, we will need to instantiate and set a few attributes of the Config
class. This object is used for configuration options that are global to the pipeline as a whole. We will provide this object to each stage along with stage-specific configuration parameters.
config = Config()
config.mode = PipelineModes.NLP
config.num_threads = os.cpu_count()
config.feature_length = 128
with open(labels_file) as fh:
config.class_labels = [x.strip() for x in fh]
First we set our pipeline mode to NLP. Next, we set the num_threads
property to match the number of cores in our system.
The feature_length
property needs to match the dimensions of the model inputs, which we got from Triton in the previous section using the model’s /config
endpoint.
Ground truth classification labels are read from the morpheus/data/labels_phishing.txt
file included in Morpheus.
Now that our config object is populated, we move on to the pipeline itself. We will be using the same input file from the previous example, and to tokenize the input data we will use Morpheus’ PreprocessNLPStage
.
This stage uses the cudf subword tokenizer to transform strings into a tensor of numbers to be fed into the neural network model. Rather than split the string by characters or whitespaces, we split them into meaningful subwords based upon the occurrence of the subwords in a large training corpus. You can find more details here: https://arxiv.org/abs/1810.04805v2. All we need to know for now is that the text will be converted to subword token ids based on the vocabulary file that we provide (vocab_hash_file=vocab file
).
Let’s go ahead and instantiate our PreprocessNLPStage
and add it to the pipeline:
pipeline.add_stage(
PreprocessNLPStage(
config,
vocab_hash_file=vocab_file,
truncation=True,
do_lower_case=True,
add_special_tokens=False))
In addition to providing the Config
object that we defined above, we also configure this stage to:
Use the
morpheus/data/bert-base-uncased-hash.txt
vocabulary file for its subword token ids (vocab_hash_file=vocab_file
).Truncate the length of the text to a max number of tokens (
truncation=True
).Change the casing to all lowercase (
do_lower_case=True
).Refrain from adding the default BERT special tokens like
[SEP]
for separation between two sentences and[CLS]
at the start of the text (add_special_tokens=False
).
Note that the tokenizer parameters and vocabulary hash file should exactly match what was used for tokenization during the training of the NLP model.
At this point, we have a pipeline that reads in a set of records and pre-processes them with the metadata required for our classifier to make predictions. Our next step is to define a stage that applies a machine learning model to our MessageMeta
object. To accomplish this, we will be using Morpheus’ TritonInferenceStage
. This stage will handle communication with the phishing-bert-onnx
model, which we provided to the Triton Docker container via the models
directory mount.
Next we will add a monitor stage to measure the inference rate as well as a filter stage to filter out any results below a probability threshold of 0.9
.
# Add an inference stage
pipeline.add_stage(
TritonInferenceStage(
config,
model_name='phishing-bert-onnx',
server_url=triton_url,
force_convert_inputs=True,
))
pipeline.add_stage(MonitorStage(config, description="Inference Rate", smoothing=0.001, unit="inf"))
# Filter values lower than 0.9
pipeline.add_stage(FilterDetectionsStage(config, threshold=0.9))
Lastly, we will save our results to disk. For this purpose, we are using two stages that are often used in conjunction with each other: SerializeStage
and WriteToFileStage
.
The SerializeStage
is used to include and exclude columns as desired in the output. Importantly, it also handles conversion from the MultiMessage
-derived output type that is used by the FilterDetectionsStage
to the MessageMeta
class that is expected as input by the WriteToFileStage
.
The WriteToFileStage
will append message data to the output file as messages are received. Note however that for performance reasons the WriteToFileStage
does not flush its contents out to disk every time a message is received. Instead, it relies on the underlying buffered output stream to flush as needed, and then will close the file handle on shutdown.
# Write the file to the output
pipeline.add_stage(SerializeStage(config))
pipeline.add_stage(WriteToFileStage(config, filename=results_file, overwrite=True))
Note that we didn’t specify the output format. In our example, the result file contains the extension .jsonlines
. Morpheus will infer the output format based on the extension. At time of writing the extensions that Morpheus will infer are: .csv
, .json
& .jsonlines
.
To explicitly set the output format we could specify the file_type
argument to the WriteToFileStage
which is an enumeration defined in morpheus.common.FileTypes
. Supported values are:
FileTypes.Auto
FileTypes.CSV
FileTypes.JSON

In our RecipientFeaturesStage
example we added a constructor to our stage, however we didn’t go into much detail on the details. Every stage constructor must receive an instance of a morpheus.config.Config
object as its first argument and is then free to define additional stage-specific arguments after that. The Morpheus config object will contain configuration parameters needed by multiple stages in the pipeline, and the constructor in each Morpheus stage is free to inspect these. In contrast, parameters specific to a single stage are typically defined as constructor arguments. It is a best practice to perform any necessary validation checks in the constructor, and raising an exception in the case of mis-configuration. This allows us to fail early rather than after the pipeline has started.
In our RecipientFeaturesStage
example, we hard-coded the Bert separator token. Let’s instead refactor the code to receive that as a constructor argument. This new constructor argument is documented following the numpydoc formatting style allowing it to be documented properly for both API and CLI users. Let’s also take the opportunity to verify that the pipeline mode is set to morpheus.config.PipelineModes.NLP
.
Note: Setting the pipeline mode in the register_stage
decorator restricts usage of our stage to NLP pipelines when using the Morpheus command line tool, however there is no such enforcement with the Python API.
Our refactored class definition is now:
@register_stage("recipient-features", modes=[PipelineModes.NLP])

Note: The code for this guide can be found in the examples/developer_guide/2_2_rabbitmq
directory of the Morpheus repository.
Creating a new source stage is similar to defining any other stage with a few differences. First, we will be subclassing SingleOutputSource
including the PreallocatorMixin
. Second, the required methods are the name
property, _build_source
and supports_cpp_node
methods.
In this example, we will create a source that reads messages from a RabbitMQ queue using the pika client for Python. For simplicity, we will assume that authentication is not required for our RabbitMQ exchange and that the body of the RabbitMQ messages will be JSON formatted. Both authentication and support for other formats could be easily added later.
The PreallocatorMixin
when added to a stage class, typically a source stage, indicates that the stage emits newly constructed DataFrames either directly or contained in a MessageMeta
instance into the pipeline. Adding this mixin allows any columns needed by other stages to be inserted into the DataFrame.
The _build_source
method is similar to the _build_single
method; it receives an instance of the MRC segment builder (mrc.Builder
) and returns a StreamPair
. However, unlike in the previous examples, source stages do not have a parent stage and therefore do not receive a StreamPair
as input. Instead of building our node with make_node
, we will call make_source
with the parameter self.source_generator
, which is a method that we will define next.
def _build_source(self, builder: mrc.Builder) -> StreamPair:
node = builder.make_source(self.unique_name, self.source_generator)
return node, MessageMeta
The source_generator
method is where most of the RabbitMQ-specific code exists. When we have a message that we wish to emit into the pipeline, we simply yield
it.
def source_generator(self):
try:
while not self._stop_requested:
(method_frame, header_frame, body) = self._channel.basic_get(self._queue_name)
if method_frame is not None:
try:
buffer = StringIO(body.decode("utf-8"))
df = cudf.io.read_json(buffer, orient='records', lines=True)
yield MessageMeta(df=df)
except Exception as ex:
logger.exception("Error occurred converting RabbitMQ message to Dataframe:{}".format(ex))
finally:
self._channel.basic_ack(method_frame.delivery_tag)
else:
# queue is empty, sleep before polling again
time.sleep(self._poll_interval.total_seconds())
finally:
self._connection.close()
Note that we read messages as quickly as we can from the queue. When the queue is empty we call time.sleep
, allowing for a context switch to occur if needed. We acknowledge the message (by calling basic_ack
) only once we have successfully emitted the message or failed to deserialize the message. This means that if the pipeline shuts down while consuming the queue, we will not lose any messages. However, in that situation we may end up with a duplicate message (i.e., if the pipeline is shut down after we have yielded the message but before calling basic_ack
).

In Morpheus, we define a stage to be a sink if it outputs the results of a pipeline to a destination external to the pipeline. Morpheus currently provides two sink stages: WriteToFileStage
and WriteToKafkaStage
.
Recall that in the previous section we wrote a RabbitMQSourceStage
. We will now complement that by writing a sink stage that can output Morpheus data into RabbitMQ. For this example, we are again using the pika client for Python.
The code for our sink will be similar to other stages with a few changes. First, we will subclass SinglePortStage
:
@register_stage("to-rabbitmq")
class WriteToRabbitMQStage(SinglePortStage):
In our _build_single
method we will be making use of the make_sink
method rather than make_node
or make_source
.
def _build_single(self, builder: mrc.Builder, input_stream: StreamPair) -> StreamPair:
node = builder.make_sink(self.unique_name, self.on_data, self.on_error, self.on_complete)
builder.make_edge(input_stream[0], node)
return (node, input_stream[1])
Note the return tuple contains our newly constructed node, along with the unchanged input type. Our sink will function as a pass-through allowing the possibility of other sinks to be added to the pipeline. We could, hypothetically, have a pipeline where we emit the results to both RabbitMQ and a file.

Similar to our previous examples, most of the actual business logic of the stage is contained in the on_data
method. In this case, we grab a reference to the cuDF DataFrame attached to the incoming message. We then serialize to an io.StringIO buffer, which is then sent to RabbitMQ.
def on_data(self, message: MessageMeta):
df = message.df
buffer = StringIO()
df.to_json(buffer, orient='records', lines=True)
body = buffer.getvalue().strip()
self._channel.basic_publish(exchange=self._exchange, routing_key=self._routing_key, body=body)
return message
The two new methods introduced in this example are the on_error
and on_complete
methods. For both methods, we want to make sure the connection object is properly closed.
Note: We didn’t close the channel object since closing the connection will also close any associated channel objects.
def on_error(self, ex: Exception):
logger.exception("Error occurred :{}".format(ex))
self._connection.close()
def on_complete(self):
self._connection.close()
