MLFlowClient.jl

A Julia client for the MLflow REST API. Track experiments, log metrics and parameters, manage models, and more — directly from Julia.

Tested against MLflow 3.11.1.

Installation

using Pkg
Pkg.add("MLFlowClient")

Quick start

using MLFlowClient

# Connect to an MLflow server
mlf = MLFlow("http://localhost:5000")

# Create an experiment and a run
experiment_id = createexperiment(mlf, "my-experiment")
run = createrun(mlf, experiment_id)

# Log parameters, metrics, and tags
logparam(mlf, run, "learning_rate", "0.01")
logmetric(mlf, run, "accuracy", 0.95)
setruntag(mlf, run, "model_type", "linear")

# Complete the run
updaterun(mlf, run; status=RunStatus.FINISHED)

API coverage

MLFlowClient implements the full MLflow REST API (v2.0 and v3.0) and the Authentication REST API:

  • Experiments — create, get, search, update, delete, restore, tags
  • Runs — create, get, search, update, delete, restore, tags
  • Logging — metrics, parameters, batch, model, inputs
  • Artifacts — list, upload, download, delete, multipart upload, presigned URLs
  • Registered models — create, get, search, rename, update, delete, tags, aliases
  • Model versions — create, get, search, update, delete, transition stage, tags
  • Scorers — register, list, get, delete (v3.0)
  • Gateway — secrets, model definitions, endpoints, bindings, tags, budgets (v3.0)
  • Prompt optimization — create, get, search, cancel, delete jobs (v3.0)
  • Webhooks — create, get, list, update, delete, test
  • Users & permissions — create, get, update, delete users; experiment and model permissions

Authentication

# Basic auth
mlf = MLFlow("http://localhost:5000"; username="admin", password="password")

# Token-based auth (e.g., Databricks)
mlf = MLFlow("https://my-server.cloud.databricks.com";
    headers=Dict("Authorization" => "Bearer <token>"))

The environment variables MLFLOW_TRACKING_URI, MLFLOW_TRACKING_USERNAME, and MLFLOW_TRACKING_PASSWORD are respected when set, and will override the corresponding constructor arguments.
