title: Subprocess

The [subprocess_example.py](https://github.com/allegroai/clearml/blob/master/examples/distributed/subprocess_example.py)
|
|
script demonstrates multiple subprocesses interacting and reporting to a main Task. The following happens in the script:
|
|
* This script initializes a main Task and spawns subprocesses, each for an instances of that Task.
|
|
* Each Task in a subprocess references the main Task by calling [Task.current_task](../../references/sdk/task.md#taskcurrent_task),
|
|
which always returns the main Task.
|
|
* The Task in each subprocess reports the following to the main Task:
|
|
* Hyperparameters - Additional, different hyperparameters.
|
|
* Console - Text logged to the console as the Task in each subprocess executes.
|
|
* When the script runs, it creates an experiment named `Popen example` in the `examples` project.
|
|
|
|
## Hyperparameters
|
|
|
|
ClearML automatically logs the command line options defined with `argparse`. A parameter dictionary is logged by
|
|
connecting it to the Task using a call to the [`Task.connect`](../../references/sdk/task.md#connect) method.
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
additional_parameters = {
|
|
'stuff_' + str(randint(0, 100)): 'some stuff ' + str(randint(0, 100))
|
|
}
|
|
Task.current_task().connect(additional_parameters)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Command line options appear in **CONFIGURATION** **>** **HYPERPARAMETERS** **>** **Args**.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Parameter dictionaries appear in **General**.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Console
|
|
|
|
Output to the console, including the text messages from the Task in each subprocess, appear in **CONSOLE**.
