skpro.registry.all_objects

skpro.registry.all_objects(object_types=None, filter_tags=None, exclude_objects=None, return_names=True, as_dataframe=False, return_tags=None, suppress_import_stdout=True)

Get a list of all objects from skpro.

This function crawls the module and gets all classes that inherit from skpro’s and sklearn’s base classes.

Not included are: the base classes themselves, classes defined in test modules.

Parameters:

object_types: str, list of str, optional (default=None)

Which kind of objects should be returned. if None, no filter is applied and all objects are returned. if str or list of str, strings define scitypes specified in search

only objects that are of (at least) one of the scitypes are returned

possible str values are entries of registry.BASE_CLASS_REGISTER (first col)

for instance ‘classifier’, ‘regressor’, ‘transformer’, ‘forecaster’

return_names: bool, optional (default=True)

if True, object class name is included in the all_objects()

return in the order: name, object class, optional tags, either as a tuple or as pandas.DataFrame columns

if False, object class name is removed from the all_objects()

return.

filter_tags: dict of (str or list of str), optional (default=None)

For a list of valid tag strings, use the registry.all_tags utility. subsets the returned objects as follows:

each key/value pair is statement in “and”/conjunction

key is tag name to sub-set on value str or list of string are tag values condition is “key must be equal to value, or in set(value)”

exclude_objects: str, list of str, optional (default=None)

Names of objects to exclude.

as_dataframe: bool, optional (default=False)

if True, all_objects will return a pandas.DataFrame with named

columns for all of the attributes being returned.

if False, all_objects will return a list (either a list of

objects or a list of tuples, see Returns)

return_tags: str or list of str, optional (default=None)

Names of tags to fetch and return each object’s value of. For a list of valid tag strings, use the registry.all_tags utility. if str or list of str,

the tag values named in return_tags will be fetched for each object and will be appended as either columns or tuple entries.

suppress_import_stdoutbool, optional. Default=True

whether to suppress stdout printout upon import.

Returns:

all_objects will return one of the following:

1. list of objects, if return_names=False, and return_tags is None

2. list of tuples (optional object name, class, ~optional object

   tags), if return_names=True or return_tags is not None.

3. pandas.DataFrame if as_dataframe = True if list of objects:

entries are objects matching the query, in alphabetical order of object name

if list of tuples:

list of (optional object name, object, optional object tags) matching the query, in alphabetical order of object name, where name is the object name as string, and is an

optional return

object is the actual object tags are the object’s values for each tag in return_tags

and is an optional return.

if dataframe:

all_objects will return a pandas.DataFrame. column names represent the attributes contained in each column. “objects” will be the name of the column of objects, “names” will be the name of the column of object class names and the string(s) passed in return_tags will serve as column names for all columns of tags that were optionally requested.
