WorkerSet¶
A set of RolloutWorker containing n ray remote workers as well as a single “local”
RolloutWorker .
WorkerSet exposes some convenience methods to make calls on its individual
workers’ own methods in parallel using e.g. ray.get().
- class ray.rllib.evaluation.worker_set.WorkerSet(*, env_creator: Optional[Callable[[ray.rllib.env.env_context.EnvContext], Any]] = None, validate_env: Optional[Callable[[Any], None]] = None, policy_class: Optional[Type[ray.rllib.policy.policy.Policy]] = None, trainer_config: Optional[dict] = None, num_workers: int = 0, local_worker: bool = True, logdir: Optional[str] = None, _setup: bool = True)[source]¶
Set of RolloutWorkers with n @ray.remote workers and one local worker.
Where n may be 0.
- __init__(*, env_creator: Optional[Callable[[ray.rllib.env.env_context.EnvContext], Any]] = None, validate_env: Optional[Callable[[Any], None]] = None, policy_class: Optional[Type[ray.rllib.policy.policy.Policy]] = None, trainer_config: Optional[dict] = None, num_workers: int = 0, local_worker: bool = True, logdir: Optional[str] = None, _setup: bool = True)[source]¶
Initializes a WorkerSet instance.
- Parameters
env_creator – Function that returns env given env config.
validate_env – Optional callable to validate the generated environment (only on worker=0).
policy_class – An optional Policy class. If None, PolicySpecs can be generated automatically by using the Trainer’s default class of via a given multi-agent policy config dict.
trainer_config – Optional dict that extends the common config of the Trainer class.
num_workers – Number of remote rollout workers to create.
local_worker – Whether to create a local (non @ray.remote) worker in the returned set as well (default: True). If num_workers is 0, always create a local worker.
logdir – Optional logging directory for workers.
_setup – Whether to setup workers. This is only for testing.
- local_worker() ray.rllib.evaluation.rollout_worker.RolloutWorker[source]¶
Returns the local rollout worker.
- sync_weights(policies: Optional[List[str]] = None, from_worker: Optional[ray.rllib.evaluation.rollout_worker.RolloutWorker] = None) None[source]¶
Syncs model weights from the local worker to all remote workers.
- Parameters
policies – Optional list of PolicyIDs to sync weights for. If None (default), sync weights to/from all policies.
from_worker – Optional RolloutWorker instance to sync from. If None (default), sync from this WorkerSet’s local worker.
- add_workers(num_workers: int) None[source]¶
Creates and adds a number of remote workers to this worker set.
Can be called several times on the same WorkerSet to add more RolloutWorkers to the set.
- Parameters
num_workers – The number of remote Workers to add to this WorkerSet.
- reset(new_remote_workers: List[ray.actor.ActorHandle]) None[source]¶
Hard overrides the remote workers in this set with the given one.
- Parameters
new_remote_workers – A list of new RolloutWorkers (as ActorHandles) to use as remote workers.
- foreach_worker(func: Callable[[ray.rllib.evaluation.rollout_worker.RolloutWorker], ray.rllib.evaluation.worker_set.T]) List[ray.rllib.evaluation.worker_set.T][source]¶
Calls the given function with each worker instance as arg.
- Parameters
func – The function to call for each worker (as only arg).
- Returns
The list of return values of all calls to func([worker]).
- foreach_worker_with_index(func: Callable[[ray.rllib.evaluation.rollout_worker.RolloutWorker, int], ray.rllib.evaluation.worker_set.T]) List[ray.rllib.evaluation.worker_set.T][source]¶
Calls func with each worker instance and worker idx as args.
The index will be passed as the second arg to the given function.
- Parameters
func – The function to call for each worker and its index (as args). The local worker has index 0, all remote workers have indices > 0.
- Returns
- The list of return values of all calls to func([worker, idx]).
The first entry in this list are the results of the local worker, followed by all remote workers’ results.
- foreach_policy(func: Callable[[ray.rllib.policy.policy.Policy, str], ray.rllib.evaluation.worker_set.T]) List[ray.rllib.evaluation.worker_set.T][source]¶
Calls func with each worker’s (policy, PolicyID) tuple.
Note that in the multi-agent case, each worker may have more than one policy.
- Parameters
func – A function - taking a Policy and its ID - that is called on all workers’ Policies.
- Returns
- The list of return values of func over all workers’ policies. The
length of this list is: (num_workers + 1 (local-worker)) * [num policies in the multi-agent config dict]. The local workers’ results are first, followed by all remote workers’ results
- foreach_trainable_policy(func: Callable[[ray.rllib.policy.policy.Policy, str], ray.rllib.evaluation.worker_set.T]) List[ray.rllib.evaluation.worker_set.T][source]¶
Apply func to all workers’ Policies iff in policies_to_train.
- Parameters
func – A function - taking a Policy and its ID - that is called on all workers’ Policies in worker.policies_to_train.
- Returns
- The list of n return values of all
func([trainable policy], [ID])-calls.
- Return type
List[any]
- foreach_env(func: Callable[[Any], List[ray.rllib.evaluation.worker_set.T]]) List[List[ray.rllib.evaluation.worker_set.T]][source]¶
Calls func with all workers’ sub-environments as args.
An “underlying sub environment” is a single clone of an env within a vectorized environment. func takes a single underlying sub environment as arg, e.g. a gym.Env object.
- Parameters
func – A function - taking an EnvType (normally a gym.Env object) as arg and returning a list of lists of return values, one value per underlying sub-environment per each worker.
- Returns
The list (workers) of lists (sub environments) of results.
- foreach_env_with_context(func: Callable[[ray.rllib.env.base_env.BaseEnv, ray.rllib.env.env_context.EnvContext], List[ray.rllib.evaluation.worker_set.T]]) List[List[ray.rllib.evaluation.worker_set.T]][source]¶
Calls func with all workers’ sub-environments and env_ctx as args.
An “underlying sub environment” is a single clone of an env within a vectorized environment. func takes a single underlying sub environment and the env_context as args.
- Parameters
func – A function - taking a BaseEnv object and an EnvContext as arg - and returning a list of lists of return values over envs of the worker.
- Returns
- The list (1 item per workers) of lists (1 item per sub-environment)
of results.
