Create a project with the SDK

The Humanloop Python SDK allows you to programmatically set up Humanloop projects with model configs and a feedback schema.

Prerequisites

1. A Humanloop account. If you don't have one, you can create an account now by going to the Sign up page.

Install and Initialize the SDK

First you need to install and initialize the SDK. If you have already done this, skip to the next section. Otherwise, open up your terminal and follow these steps:

1. Install the Humanloop Python SDK:
   Shell

   $ pip install humanloop
   

2. Start a Python interpreter:
   Shell

   $ python
   

3. Initialize the SDK with your Humanloop API key (get your API key from your Organisation Settings page)
   Python

   >>> import humanloop as hl
   >>> hl.init(api_key="sk_abcdef1234567")
   

Create a project

Continue in the same Python interpreter (where you have run hl.init(...)).

1. Create the project

   Python

   project = hl.create_project(project="{{your-organization}}-sdk-tutorial")
   project_id = project.id
   

2. Add your own feedback types and values
   By default your project has a feedback type rating with labels good and bad.

   Python

   hl.add_multi_select_feedback_type(
       project_id=project_id,
       feedback_type="action",
       values=[{"value": "copied"}, {"value": "saved"}],
   )
   

3. Register your model config

   Python

   hl.register(
       project="{{your-organization}}-sdk-tutorial",
       model="text-davinci-002",
       prompt_template="Write a snappy introduction about {{topic}}:",
       temperature=0.8,
   )
   

You now have a project in Humanloop that contains your model config with feedback types set up.
You can view your project and invite team members by going to the Project page.

With the project now set up, you can start to log generations from your models by following the guide to logging generations using the SDK.
