Python versions earlier than 2.7.9 might report an InsecurePlatformWarning in your output. To prevent this warning without updating your Python version, you should install the pyOpenSSL package:
The Python client does not compute the confusion matrix metrics for multiclass projects with more than 100 target classes. That is, the metrics object typically obtained using get_confusion_chart().class_metrics (as shown in the API documentation) is empty in such cases. In order to retrieve these metrics, DataRobot recommends using this code snippet.
AttributeError: 'EntryPoint' object has no attribute 'resolve'¶
Some earlier versions of setuptools cause an error when importing DataRobot.
>>> import datarobot as dr
...
File "/home/clark/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/trafaret/__init__.py", line 1550, in load_contrib
trafaret_class = entrypoint.resolve()
AttributeError: 'EntryPoint' object has no attribute 'resolve'
The recommended fix is upgrading setuptools to the latest version.
pip install --upgrade setuptools
If you are unable to upgrade, pin trafaret to version <=7.4 to correct this issue.
configuration.rst describes how to configure the DataRobot client with the max_retries parameter to fine tune
behaviors like the number of attempts to retry failed connections.
If you have a slow connection to your DataRobot installation, you may see a traceback like:
ConnectTimeout:HTTPSConnectionPool(host='my-datarobot.com',port=443):Maxretriesexceededwithurl:/api/v2/projects/(CausedbyConnectTimeoutError(<requests.packages.urllib3.connection.VerifiedHTTPSConnectionobjectat0x7f130fc76150>,'Connection to my-datarobot.com timed out. (connect timeout=6.05)'))
You can configure a longer connect timeout (increasing the wait time on each request attempting to connect to the DataRobot server before aborting) using a connect_timeout value in either a configuration file or when calling datarobot.Client.
Calling project.open_leaderboard_browser may be blocked if you run it with a text-mode browser or
on a server that doesn't have the ability to open a browser.
