Return type

None

on_batch_end(trainer, pl_module)

Called when the training batch ends.

Return type

None

None

on_before_optimizer_step(trainer, pl_module, optimizer, opt_idx)

None

on_before_zero_grad(trainer, pl_module, optimizer)

Called before optimizer.zero_grad().

Return type

None

Return type

None

on_epoch_end(trainer, pl_module)

Called when either of train/val/test epoch ends.

Return type

None

Called when either of train/val/test epoch begins.

Return type

None

on_exception(trainer, pl_module, exception)

Called when any trainer execution is interrupted by an exception.

Return type

None

on_fit_end(trainer, pl_module)

Called when fit ends.

Return type

None

on_fit_start(trainer, pl_module)

Called when fit begins.

Return type

None

on_init_end(trainer)

Called when the trainer initialization ends, model has not yet been set.

Return type

None

on_init_start(trainer)

Called when the trainer initialization begins, model has not yet been set.

Return type

None

on_keyboard_interrupt(trainer, pl_module)

Deprecated since version v1.5: This callback hook was deprecated in v1.5 in favor of on_exception and will be removed in v1.7.

Called when any trainer execution is interrupted by KeyboardInterrupt. :rtype: None

on_load_checkpoint(trainer, pl_module, callback_state)

Called when loading a model checkpoint, use to reload state.

Parameters

• trainer (Trainer) – the current Trainer instance.

• callback_state (Dict[str, Any]) – the callback state returned by on_save_checkpoint.

Return type

None

Note

The on_load_checkpoint won’t be called with an undefined state. If your on_load_checkpoint hook behavior doesn’t rely on a state, you will still need to override on_save_checkpoint to return a dummy state.

None

Called when predict ends.

Return type

None

Called when the predict begins.

Return type

None

on_pretrain_routine_end(trainer, pl_module)

Called when the pretrain routine ends.

Return type

None

on_pretrain_routine_start(trainer, pl_module)

property state_key: str

Identifier for the state of the callback.

Used to store and retrieve a callback’s state from the checkpoint dictionary by checkpoint["callbacks"][state_key]. Implementations of a callback need to provide a unique state key if 1) the callback has state and 2) it is desired to maintain the state of multiple instances of that callback.
