🤗 Datasets relies on two main classes during the dataset building process: DatasetBuilder and BuilderConfig.
( cache_dir: typing.Optional[str] = None config_name: typing.Optional[str] = None hash: typing.Optional[str] = None base_path: typing.Optional[str] = None info: typing.Optional[datasets.info.DatasetInfo] = None features: typing.Optional[datasets.features.features.Features] = None use_auth_token: typing.Union[str, bool, NoneType] = None repo_id: typing.Optional[str] = None data_files: typing.Union[str, list, dict, datasets.data_files.DataFilesDict, NoneType] = None data_dir: typing.Optional[str] = None name = 'deprecated' **config_kwargs )
Parameters
str
, optional) —
Directory to cache data. Defaults to "~/.cache/huggingface/datasets"
.
str
, optional) —
Name of the dataset configuration.
It affects the data generated on disk. Different configurations will have their own subdirectories and
versions.
If not provided, the default configuration is used (if it exists).
Added in 2.3.0
Parameter name
was renamed to config_name
.
str
, optional) —
Hash specific to the dataset code. Used to update the caching directory when the
dataset loading script code is updated (to avoid reusing old data).
The typical caching directory (defined in self._relative_data_dir
) is name/version/hash/
.
str
, optional) —
Base path for relative paths that are used to download files.
This can be a remote URL.
str
or bool
, optional) —
String or boolean to use as Bearer token for remote files on the
Datasets Hub. If True
, will get token from "~/.huggingface"
.
str
, optional) —
ID of the dataset repository.
Used to distinguish builders with the same name but not coming from the same namespace, for example “squad”
and “lhoestq/squad” repo IDs. In the latter, the builder name would be “lhoestq___squad”.
str
or Sequence
or Mapping
, optional) —
Path(s) to source data file(s).
For builders like “csv” or “json” that need the user to specify data files. They can be either
local or remote files. For convenience, you can use a DataFilesDict
.
str
, optional) —
Path to directory containing source data file(s).
Use only if data_files
is not passed, in which case it is equivalent to passing
os.path.join(data_dir, "**")
as data_files
.
For builders that require manual download, it must be the path to the local directory containing the
manually downloaded data.
str
) — Configuration name for the dataset.
Deprecated in 2.3.0
Use config_name
instead.
Abstract base class for all datasets.
DatasetBuilder
has 3 key methods:
DatasetBuilder.info
: Documents the dataset, including feature
names, types, shapes, version, splits, citation, etc.Some DatasetBuilder
s expose multiple variants of the
dataset by defining a BuilderConfig subclass and accepting a
config object (or name) on construction. Configurable datasets expose a
pre-defined set of configurations in DatasetBuilder.builder_configs()
.

Parameters
str
, optional) —
Output directory for the dataset.
Default to this builder’s cache_dir
, which is inside ~/.cache/huggingface/datasets
by default.
Added in 2.5.0
DownloadConfig
, optional) —
Specific download configuration parameters.
DownloadMode
, optional) —
Select the download/generate mode, default to REUSE_DATASET_IF_EXISTS
.
bool
) —
Ignore the verifications of the downloaded/processed dataset information (checksums/size/splits/…).
bool
) —
If True
, it will try to download the already prepared dataset from the HF Google cloud storage.
DownloadManager
, optional) —
Specific DownloadManger
to use.
str
, optional) —
Base path for relative paths that are used to download files. This can be a remote url.
If not specified, the value of the base_path
attribute (self.base_path
) will be used instead.
Union[str, bool]
, optional) —
Optional string or boolean to use as Bearer token for remote files on the Datasets Hub.
If True, or not specified, will get token from ~/.huggingface.
Deprecated in 2.7.1
Pass use_auth_token
to the initializer/load_dataset_builder
instead.
str
, optional) —
Format of the data files in which the dataset will be written.
Supported formats: “arrow”, “parquet”. Default to “arrow” format.
If the format is “parquet”, then image and audio data are embedded into the Parquet files instead of pointing to local files.
Added in 2.5.0
Union[str, int]
, optional) —
Maximum number of bytes written per shard, default is “500MB”.
The size is based on uncompressed data size, so in practice your shard files may be smaller than
max_shard_size
thanks to Parquet compression for example.
Added in 2.5.0
int
, optional, defaults to None
) —
Number of processes when downloading and generating the dataset locally.
Multiprocessing is disabled by default.

Return the path of the module of this class or subclass.
Base class for datasets with data generation based on dict generators.
GeneratorBasedBuilder
is a convenience class that abstracts away much
of the data writing and reading of DatasetBuilder
. It expects subclasses to
implement generators of feature dictionaries across the dataset splits
(_split_generators
). See the method docstrings for details.
( *args beam_runner = None beam_options = None **kwargs )
Beam-based Builder.
( cache_dir: typing.Optional[str] = None config_name: typing.Optional[str] = None hash: typing.Optional[str] = None base_path: typing.Optional[str] = None info: typing.Optional[datasets.info.DatasetInfo] = None features: typing.Optional[datasets.features.features.Features] = None use_auth_token: typing.Union[str, bool, NoneType] = None repo_id: typing.Optional[str] = None data_files: typing.Union[str, list, dict, datasets.data_files.DataFilesDict, NoneType] = None data_dir: typing.Optional[str] = None name = 'deprecated' **config_kwargs )
Base class for datasets with data generation based on Arrow loading functions (CSV/JSON/Parquet).
( name: str = 'default' version: typing.Union[str, datasets.utils.version.Version, NoneType] = 0.0.0 data_dir: typing.Optional[str] = None data_files: typing.Optional[datasets.data_files.DataFilesDict] = None description: typing.Optional[str] = None )
Base class for DatasetBuilder
data configuration.
DatasetBuilder
subclasses with data configuration options should subclass
BuilderConfig
and add their own properties.
( config_kwargs: dict custom_features: typing.Optional[datasets.features.features.Features] = None )
The config id is used to build the cache directory. By default it is equal to the config name. However the name of a config is not sufficient to have a unique identifier for the dataset being generated since it doesn’t take into account:
Therefore the config id is just the config name with an optional suffix based on these.
( dataset_name: typing.Optional[str] = None data_dir: typing.Optional[str] = None download_config: typing.Optional[datasets.download.download_config.DownloadConfig] = None base_path: typing.Optional[str] = None record_checksums = True )
(
url_or_urls

path_or_paths
is larger than num_proc
.
Deprecated in 2.6.2
Pass DownloadConfig(num_proc=<num_proc>)
to the initializer instead.
Returns
extracted_path(s)
str
, The extracted paths matching the given input
path_or_paths.
Extract given path(s).
(
path_or_buf: typing.Union[str, _io.BufferedReader]

Download manager that uses the ”::” separator to navigate through (possibly remote) compressed archives.
Contrary to the regular DownloadManager
, the download
and extract
methods don’t actually download nor extract
data, but they rather return the path or url that could be opened using the xopen
function which extends the
built-in open
function to stream data from remote files.
( url_or_urls ) → url(s)
Normalize URL(s) of files to stream data from.
This is the lazy version of DownloadManager.download
for streaming.
( url_or_urls ) → url(s)
Prepare given url_or_urls
for streaming (add extraction protocol).
This is the lazy version of DownloadManager.download_and_extract
for streaming.
( url_or_urls ) → url(s)
Add extraction protocol for given url(s) for streaming.
This is the lazy version of DownloadManager.extract
for streaming.

( name: str gen_kwargs: typing.Dict = <factory> )
Defines the split information for the generator.
This should be used as returned value of
GeneratorBasedBuilder._split_generators
.
See GeneratorBasedBuilder._split_generators
for more info and example
of usage.
Enum
for dataset splits.
Datasets are typically split into different subsets to be used at various stages of training and evaluation.
TRAIN
: the training data.VALIDATION
: the validation data. If present, this is typically used as
evaluation data while iterating on a model (e.g. changing hyperparameters,
model architecture, etc.).TEST
: the testing data. This is the data to report metrics on. Typically
you do not want to use this during model iteration as you may overfit to it.ALL
: the union of all defined dataset splits.All splits, including compositions inherit from datasets.SplitBase
.
See the guide on splits for more information.
Example:
>>> datasets.SplitGenerator(
... name=datasets.Split.TRAIN,
... gen_kwargs={"split_key": "train", "files": dl_manager.download_and extract(url)},
... ),
... datasets.SplitGenerator(
... name=datasets.Split.VALIDATION,
... gen_kwargs={"split_key": "validation", "files": dl_manager.download_and extract(url)},
... ),
... datasets.SplitGenerator(
... name=datasets.Split.TEST,
... gen_kwargs={"split_key": "test", "files": dl_manager.download_and extract(url)},
... )
Descriptor corresponding to a named split (train, test, …).
Example:
Each descriptor can be composed with other using addition or slice:
split = datasets.Split.TRAIN.subsplit(datasets.percent[0:25]) + datasets.Split.TEST
The resulting split will correspond to 25% of the train split merged with 100% of the test split.
A split cannot be added twice, so the following will fail:
split = (
datasets.Split.TRAIN.subsplit(datasets.percent[:25]) +
datasets.Split.TRAIN.subsplit(datasets.percent[75:])
) # Error
split = datasets.Split.TEST + datasets.Split.ALL # Error
Split corresponding to the union of all defined dataset splits.
( split_name rounding = None from_ = None to = None unit = None )
Reading instruction for a dataset.
Examples:
# The following lines are equivalent:
ds = datasets.load_dataset('mnist', split='test[:33%]')
ds = datasets.load_dataset('mnist', split=datasets.ReadInstruction.from_spec('test[:33%]'))
ds = datasets.load_dataset('mnist', split=datasets.ReadInstruction('test', to=33, unit='%'))
ds = datasets.load_dataset('mnist', split=datasets.ReadInstruction(
'test', from_=0, to=33, unit='%'))
# The following lines are equivalent:
ds = datasets.load_dataset('mnist', split='test[:33%]+train[1:-1]')
ds = datasets.load_dataset('mnist', split=datasets.ReadInstruction.from_spec(
'test[:33%]+train[1:-1]'))
ds = datasets.load_dataset('mnist', split=(
datasets.ReadInstruction('test', to=33, unit='%') +
datasets.ReadInstruction('train', from_=1, to=-1, unit='abs')))
# The following lines are equivalent:
ds = datasets.load_dataset('mnist', split='test[:33%](pct1_dropremainder)')
ds = datasets.load_dataset('mnist', split=datasets.ReadInstruction.from_spec(
'test[:33%](pct1_dropremainder)'))
ds = datasets.load_dataset('mnist', split=datasets.ReadInstruction(
'test', from_=0, to=33, unit='%', rounding="pct1_dropremainder"))
# 10-fold validation:
tests = datasets.load_dataset(
'mnist',
[datasets.ReadInstruction('train', from_=k, to=k+10, unit='%')
for k in range(0, 100, 10)])
trains = datasets.load_dataset(
'mnist',
[datasets.ReadInstruction('train', to=k, unit='%') + datasets.ReadInstruction('train', from_=k+10, unit='%')
for k in range(0, 100, 10)])
( spec )
Creates a ReadInstruction
instance out of a string spec.
Examples:
test: test split.
test + validation: test split + validation split.
test[10:]: test split, minus its first 10 records.
test[:10%]: first 10% records of test split.
test[:20%](pct1_dropremainder): first 10% records, rounded with the pct1_dropremainder rounding.
test[:-5%]+train[40%:60%]: first 95% of test + middle 20% of train.
( name2len )
Translate instruction into a list of absolute instructions.
Those absolute instructions are then to be added together.
