Orchard ML: type-Safe Deep Learning for Reproducible Research.
Top-level convenience API re-exporting the most commonly used components
from subpackages, so users and the orchard CLI can write:
from orchard import Config, RootOrchestrator, get_model
LogStyle
¶
Unified logging style constants for consistent visual hierarchy.
Provides separators, symbols, indentation, and ANSI color codes used
by all logging modules. Placed here (in paths.constants) rather
than in logger.styles so that low-level packages (environment,
config) can reference the constants without triggering circular
imports.
RootOrchestrator(cfg, infra_manager=None, reporter=None, time_tracker=None, audit_saver=None, log_initializer=None, seed_setter=None, thread_applier=None, system_configurator=None, static_dir_setup=None, device_resolver=None, rank=None, local_rank=None)
¶
Central coordinator for ML experiment lifecycle management.
Orchestrates the complete initialization sequence from configuration validation through resource provisioning to execution readiness. Implements a 7-phase initialization protocol (phases 1-6 eager, phase 7 deferred) with dependency injection for maximum testability.
The orchestrator follows the Single Responsibility Principle by delegating specialized tasks to injected dependencies while maintaining overall coordination. Uses the Context Manager pattern to guarantee resource cleanup even during failures.
Initialization Phases:
- Determinism: Global RNG seeding (Python, NumPy, PyTorch)
- Runtime Configuration: CPU thread affinity, system libraries
- Filesystem Provisioning: Dynamic workspace creation via RunPaths
- Logging Initialization: File-based persistent logging setup
- Config Persistence: YAML manifest export for auditability
- Infrastructure Guarding: OS-level resource locks (prevents race conditions)
- Environment Reporting: Comprehensive telemetry logging
Dependency Injection:
All external dependencies are injectable with sensible defaults:
- infra_manager: OS resource management (locks, cleanup)
- reporter: Environment telemetry engine
- log_initializer: Logging setup strategy
- seed_setter: RNG seeding function
- thread_applier: CPU thread configuration
- system_configurator: System library setup (matplotlib, etc)
- static_dir_setup: Static directory creation
- audit_saver: Config YAML + requirements snapshot persistence
- device_resolver: Hardware device detection

Notes:
- Thread-safe: Single-instance locking via InfrastructureManager
- Idempotent: initialize_core_services() is safe to call multiple times (subsequent calls return cached RunPaths without re-executing phases)

__enter__()
¶
Context Manager entry — triggers the initialization sequence.
Starts the pipeline timer and delegates to initialize_core_services() for phases 1-6 (seeding, runtime config, filesystem, logging, config persistence, infrastructure locking, and device resolution). Phase 7 (environment reporting) is deferred to log_environment_report().
If any phase raises (including KeyboardInterrupt / SystemExit), cleanup() is called before re-raising to ensure partial resources (locks, file handles) are released even on failure.
Returns:
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
'RootOrchestrator'
|
Fully initialized RootOrchestrator ready for pipeline execution. |
Raises:
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
BaseException
|
Re-raises any initialization error after cleanup. |
Source code in orchard/core/orchestrator.py
__exit__(exc_type, exc_val, exc_tb)
¶
Context Manager exit — stops timer and guarantees resource teardown.
Invoked automatically when leaving the with block, whether the
pipeline completed normally or raised an exception. Stops the timer,
then delegates to cleanup() for infrastructure lock release and
logging handler closure.
Error reporting is intentionally left to the caller (CLI layer), which has the user-facing context to log appropriate messages.
Returns False so that any exception propagates to the caller unchanged.
Parameters:
| Name | Type | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
exc_type
|
type[BaseException] | None
|
Exception class if the block raised, else None. |
required |
exc_val
|
BaseException | None
|
Exception instance if the block raised, else None. |
required |
exc_tb
|
TracebackType | None
|
Traceback object if the block raised, else None. |
required |
Returns:
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
Literal[False]
|
Always False — exceptions are never suppressed. |

initialize_core_services()
¶
Executes linear sequence of environment initialization phases.
Synchronizes global state through phases 1-6, progressing from deterministic seeding to device resolution. Phase 7 (environment reporting) is deferred to log_environment_report().
In distributed mode (torchrun / DDP), only the main process (rank 0)
executes phases 3-6 (filesystem, logging, config persistence, infra
locking). All ranks execute phases 1-2 (seeding, threads) for
identical RNG state and thread affinity, plus device resolution
for DDP readiness (each rank binds to cuda:{local_rank}).
Idempotent: guarded by _initialized flag. If already initialized,
returns existing RunPaths without re-executing any phase. This prevents
orphaned directories (Phase 3 creates unique paths per call) and
resource leaks (Phase 6 acquires filesystem locks).
Returns:
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
RunPaths | None
|
Provisioned directory structure for rank 0, None for non-main ranks. |
Raises:
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
RuntimeError
|
If called after cleanup (single-use guard). |
OrchardDeviceError
|
If device resolution fails at runtime. |

log_environment_report()
¶
Emit the environment initialization report (phase 7).
Designed to be called explicitly by the CLI app after external services (e.g. MLflow tracker) have been started, so that all enter/exit log messages appear in the correct chronological order.
Source code in orchard/core/orchestrator.py
cleanup()
¶
Releases system resources and removes execution lock file.
Guarantees clean state for subsequent runs by unlinking InfrastructureManager guards and closing logging handlers. Non-main ranks skip resource release (they never acquired locks or opened file-based log handlers).
Source code in orchard/core/orchestrator.py
get_device()

Resolves and caches optimal computation device (CUDA/CPU/MPS).
Returns:
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
device
|
