A trainer for transformer-based models.

## Installation

Simply install with pip (preferably in a virtual env, you know the drill)

```console
pip install zeldarose
```

## Train a model

Here is a short example:

```console
zeldarose-tokenizer --vocab-size 4096 --out-path local/tokenizer  --model-name "my-muppet" tests/fixtures/raw.txt
zeldarose-transformer --tokenizer local/tokenizer --pretrained-model flaubert/flaubert_small_cased --out-dir local/muppet --val-text tests/fixtures/raw.txt tests/fixtures/raw.txt
```

There are other parameters (see `zeldarose-transformer --help` for a comprehensive list), the one you are probably mostly interested in is `--config` (for which there is an example target in [`examples/`](examples)).

The parameters `--pretrained-models`, `--tokenizer` and `--model-config` are all fed directly to [Huggingface's `transformers`](https://huggingface.co/transformers) and can be [pretrained models](https://huggingface.co/transformers/pretrained_models.html) names or local path.

## Distributed training

This is somewhat tricky, you have several options

- If you are running in a SLURM cluster use `--accelerator ddp` and invoke via `srun`
- Otherwise you have two options

  - Run with `--accelerator ddp_spawn`, which uses `multiprocessing.spawn` to start the process swarm (tested, but possibly slower and more limited, see `pytorch-lightning` doc)
  - Run with `--accelerator ddp` and start with `torch.distributed.launch` with `--use_env` and `--no_python` (untested)

Whatever you do, for now it's safer to run once without distributed training in order to preprocess
the raw texts in a predictable environment.
