Building Custom Policy Classes#

Warning

As of Ray >= 1.9, it is no longer recommended to use the build_policy_class() or build_tf_policy() utility functions for creating custom Policy sub-classes. Instead, follow the simple guidelines here for directly sub-classing from either one of the built-in types: EagerTFPolicyV2 or TorchPolicyV2

In order to create a custom Policy, sub-class Policy (for a generic, framework-agnostic policy), TorchPolicyV2 (for a PyTorch specific policy), or EagerTFPolicyV2 (for a TensorFlow specific policy) and override one or more of their methods. Those are in particular:

See here for an example on how to override TorchPolicy.
