InputPortDef

Constructor

InputPortDef(name, data_types=None, default_datastore_mode=None, default_path_on_compute=None, is_optional=False, default_overwrite=None, default_data_reference_name=None, is_resource=False, label=None, additional_transformations=None, **kwargs)

Parameters

Name	Description
name Required	str Name of the input port.
data_types	list List of datatypes to allow as input ("AnyFile" or "AnyDirectory"). default value: None
default_datastore_mode	str Default mode to access the data store data ("mount" or "download"). default value: None
default_path_on_compute	str For "download" mode, the path to which the module reads from during execution. default value: None
is_optional	bool Set to true if the input is optional. default value: False
default_overwrite	bool For "download" mode, indicate whether to overwrite existing data. default value: None
default_data_reference_name	str Default name of the data reference. default value: None
is_resource	bool Indicate whether input is a resource. Resources are downloaded to the script folder and provide a way to change the behavior of script at run-time. default value: False
label	str Label of the output port, acts as a short description for the port. default value: None
additional_transformations	<xref:azureml.dataprep.Dataflow> Additional transformations to apply to the input dataset. default value: None
name Required	str Name of the input port.
data_types Required	list List of data types to allow as input.
default_datastore_mode Required	str Default mode to access the data store data ("mount" or "download").
default_path_on_compute Required	str For "download" mode, the path to which the module reads from during execution.
is_optional Required	bool Set to true if the input is optional.
default_overwrite Required	bool For "download" mode, indicate whether to overwrite existing data.
default_data_reference_name Required	str Default name of the data reference.
is_resource Required	bool Indicate whether input is a resource. Resources are downloaded to the script folder and provide a way to change the behavior of script at run-time.
label Required	str Label of the output port, acts as a short description for the port.
additional_transformations Required	<xref:azureml.dataprep.Dataflow> Additional transformations to apply to the input dataset.
