bentoml containerize#

Containerizes given Bento into an OCI-compliant container, with any given OCI builder.

BENTO is the target BentoService to be containerized, referenced by its name and version in format of name:version. For example: iris_classifier:v1.2.0

bentoml containerize command also supports the use of the latest tag

which will automatically use the last built version of your Bento.

You can provide a tag for the image built by Bento using the

--image-tag flag.

You can also prefixing the tag with a hostname for the repository you wish to push to.

$ bentoml containerize iris_classifier:latest -t repo-address.com:username/iris

This would build an image called username/iris:latest and push it to docker repository at repo-address.com.

By default, the containerize command will use the current credentials provided by each backend implementation.

bentoml containerize also leverage BuildKit features such as multi-node
builds for cross-platform images, more efficient caching, and more secure builds.
BuildKit will be enabled by default by each backend implementation. To opt-out of BuildKit, set DOCKER_BUILDKIT=0:

$ DOCKER_BUILDKIT=0 bentoml containerize iris_classifier:latest

bentoml containerize is backend-agnostic, meaning that it can use any OCI-compliant builder to build the container image.
By default, it will use the docker backend, which will use the local Docker daemon to build the image.
You can use the --backend flag to specify a different backend. Note that backend flags will now be unified via --opt.

--opt accepts multiple flags, and it works with all backend options.

To pass a boolean flag (e.g: --no-cache), use --opt no-cache.

To pass a key-value pair (e.g: --build-arg FOO=BAR), use --opt build-arg=FOO=BAR or --opt build-arg:FOO=BAR. Make sure to quote the value if it contains spaces.

To pass a argument with one value (path, integer, etc) (e.g: --cgroup-parent cgroupv2), use --opt cgroup-parent=cgroupv2 or --opt cgroup-parent:cgroupv2.

bentoml serve#

bentoml serve [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...

serve#

Start a HTTP BentoServer from a given 🍱

BENTO is the serving target, it can be the import as:
- the import path of a ‘bentoml.Service’ instance
- a tag to a Bento in local Bento store
- a folder containing a valid ‘bentofile.yaml’ build file with a ‘service’ field, which provides the import path of a ‘bentoml.Service’ instance
- a path to a built Bento (for internal & debug use only)

e.g.:

Serve from a bentoml.Service instance source code (for development use only):

‘bentoml serve fraud_detector.py:svc’

Serve from a Bento built in local store:

‘bentoml serve fraud_detector:4tht2icroji6zput3suqi5nl2’

‘bentoml serve fraud_detector:latest’

Serve from a Bento directory:

‘bentoml serve ./fraud_detector_bento’

If ‘–reload’ is provided, BentoML will detect code and model store changes during development, and restarts the service automatically.

The ‘–reload’ flag will:
- be default, all file changes under ‘–working-dir’ (default to current directory) will trigger a restart
- when specified, respect ‘include’ and ‘exclude’ under ‘bentofile.yaml’ as well as the ‘.bentoignore’ file in ‘–working-dir’, for code and file changes
- all model store changes will also trigger a restart (new model saved or existing model removed)
