[License](#license) --- ## Introduction FlowModel provides a simple entry point for experimenting with AI and machine learning. It allows users to start with a minimal framework and extend it by creating and adding plugins. The framework is designed to focus on simplicity, modularity, and extensibility. --- ## Installation ### Prerequisites - Python 3.8 or higher - `pip` package manager ### Steps 1. Clone the repository: ```bash git clone https://github.com/LunaStev/FlowModel.git cd FlowModel ``` 2. Create and activate a virtual environment: ```bash python -m venv .venv source .venv/bin/activate # For Unix/MacOS .venv\Scripts\activate # For Windows ``` 3. Install dependencies: ```bash pip install -r requirements.txt ``` --- ## Directory Structure ```plaintext FlowModel/ ├── main.py # Entry point for the application ├── plugins/ # Directory for plugins │ ├── __init__.py # Initializes the plugin package │ ├── example_plugin.py # Example plugin ├── data/ # Placeholder for datasets ├── requirements.txt # Python dependencies ``` --- ## Usage ### Training a Model To train a model using FlowModel, run: ```bash python main.py train ``` This will load any available plugins from the `plugins/` directory and apply their logic during the training process. ### Adding Plugins To add a plugin, place a `.py` file with your plugin class in the `plugins/` directory. FlowModel automatically detects and loads plugins at runtime. --- ## Creating Plugins Plugins extend the functionality of FlowModel. To create a plugin: 1. **Create a new Python file in the `plugins/` directory**: ```bash plugins/my_plugin.py ``` 2. **Define your plugin class**: ```python class MyPlugin: def __init__(self): print("MyPlugin initialized.") def modify_model(self, model): print("MyPlugin: Modifying the model.") return model def on_train_start(self): print("MyPlugin: Training started.") def on_train_end(self): print("MyPlugin: Training finished.") ``` 3. **Use your plugin during training**: When `main.py` runs, it automatically loads your plugin and calls its methods. --- ## Command-Line Interface FlowModel includes a simple CLI for interacting with the framework. ### Commands - **Train**: Start the training process with plugins. ```bash python main.py train ``` --- ## Contributing Contributions are welcome!
