If you are not already using ClearML, see [Getting Started](../getting_started/ds/ds_first_steps.md) for setup
instructions.

[MMEngine](https://github.com/open-mmlab/mmengine) is a library for training deep learning models based on PyTorch.
MMEngine supports ClearML through a builtin logger: It automatically logs experiment environment information, such as
required packages and uncommitted changes, and supports reporting scalars, parameters, and debug samples.
Integrate ClearML with the following steps:
1. Instantiate a [`ClearMLVisBackend`](https://mmengine.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api/generated/mmengine.visualization.ClearMLVisBackend.html#mmengine.visualization.ClearMLVisBackend)
object. This creates a ClearML Task that logs the experiments environment information.
```python
from mmengine.visualization import ClearMLVisBackend
vis_backend = ClearMLVisBackend(
artifact_suffix=('.py', 'pth'),
init_kwargs=dict(
project_name='examples',
task_name='OpenMMLab cifar10',
output_uri=True
)
)
```
You can specify the following parameters:
* `init_kwargs` A dictionary that contains the arguments to pass to ClearML's [`Task.init()`](../references/sdk/task.md#taskinit).
* `artifact_suffix` At the end of training, artifacts with these suffixes will be uploaded to the task's `output_uri`.
Defaults to (`.py`, `pth`).
2. Log experiment parameters using `ClearMLVisBackend.add_config()`. Under the `config` parameter, input a dictionary of parameter key-value pairs.
```python
cfg = Config(dict(a=1, b=dict(b1=[0, 1])))
vis_backend.add_config(config=cfg)
```
The parameters will be displayed in the ClearML WebApp, under the experiments Hyperparameters
3. Log your experiments scalars using either `ClearMLVisBackend.add_scalar()` for single values or `ClearMLVisBackend.add_scalars()`
for multiple values:
```python
vis_backend.add_scalar(name='mAP', value=0.6, step=1)
vis_backend.add_scalars(scalar_dict={'loss': 0.1,'acc':0.8}, step=1)
```
The scalars are displayed in the experiment's Scalars tab.
5. Report images to your experiment using `ClearMLVisBackend.add_image()`. Under the `image` parameter, input the image
to be reported as an `np.ndarray` in RGB format:
```python
img = np.random.randint(0, 256, size=(10, 10, 3))
vis_backend.add_image(name='img.png', image=img, step=1)
```
The images will be displayed in the experiment's Debug Samples
5. Once you've finished training, make sure to run `ClearMLVisBackend.close()` so that ClearML can mark the task as
completed. This will also scan the directory for relevant artifacts with the suffixes input when instantiating
`ClearMLVisBackend` and log the artifacts to your experiment.
```python
vis_backend.close()
```
