NameDescription
ProcessorBase class for dataset processors.

API

1class data_designer.engine.processing.processors.base.Processor(
2    config: data_designer.engine.configurable_task.TaskConfigT,
3    resource_provider: data_designer.engine.resources.resource_provider.ResourceProvider
4)

Bases: data_designer.engine.configurable_task.ConfigurableTask[data_designer.engine.configurable_task.TaskConfigT], abc.ABC

Base class for dataset processors.

Processors transform data at different stages of the generation pipeline. Override the callback methods for the stages you want to handle.

1implements(method_name: str) -> bool

Check if subclass overrides a callback method.

1process_before_batch(data: data_designer.engine.configurable_task.DataT) -> data_designer.engine.configurable_task.DataT

Called at PRE_BATCH stage before each batch is generated.

Override to transform batch data before generation begins.

Parameters:

data
data_designer.engine.configurable_task.DataT

The batch data before generation.

Returns:

data_designer.engine.configurable_task.DataT

Transformed batch data.

1process_after_batch(
2    data: data_designer.engine.configurable_task.DataT,
3    *,
4    current_batch_number: int | None
5) -> data_designer.engine.configurable_task.DataT

Called at POST_BATCH stage after each batch is generated.

Override to process each batch of generated data.

Parameters:

data
data_designer.engine.configurable_task.DataT

The generated batch data.

current_batch_number
int | None

The current batch number (0-indexed), or None in preview mode.

Returns:

data_designer.engine.configurable_task.DataT

Transformed batch data.

1process_after_generation(data: data_designer.engine.configurable_task.DataT) -> data_designer.engine.configurable_task.DataT

Called at AFTER_GENERATION stage on the final combined dataset.

Override to transform the complete generated dataset.

Parameters:

data
data_designer.engine.configurable_task.DataT

The final combined dataset.

Returns:

data_designer.engine.configurable_task.DataT

Transformed final dataset.
