Pickling A Stumpi Object

[rnjv]

Hi,

I am trying to pickle the Stumpi class but I get the following error:
PicklingError: Can't pickle <class 'stumpy.stumpi.stumpi'>: it's not the same object as stumpy.stumpi.stumpi

How do I save and load Stumpi to disk?

 mp = stumpy.stumpi(T, m, egress=False)
with open('cache/interim/mp/{}_stumpi.pkl'.format(id), 'wb') as f:
pickle.dump(mp, f)

The above I am running from a Jupyter notebook.

@rnjv Unfortunately, I have little to no experience with pickling.

@hmcoservit I vaguely remember that you had tried pickling aampihere. Do you happen to remember what you had to do in order to Pickle a STUMPY object?

@rnjv I think this is related to your problem. Essentially, behind the scenes, stumpy.stumpi is wrapped by a decorator and it's interfering with your pickling. I'd have to play around and think about whether there is an easy solution to work around this.

Okay, so it may not be the answer that you were hoping for but if you are able to use cloudpickle (an arguably better alternative to the built-in pickle) then you can do:

#!/usr/bin/env python
import numpy as np
import stumpy
import cloudpickle
if __name__ == "__main__":
T = np.random.rand(100)
m = 50
stream = stumpy.stumpi(T, m, egress=True)
stream.update(np.random.rand())
print(stream.left_P_)
dump_stream = cloudpickle.dumps(stream)
stream = cloudpickle.loads(dump_stream)
print(stream.left_P_)

I hope that helps!

Hi @seanlaw, sorry I it was a long time ago I no longer have access to that code.
