Create challenge using github

  1. Use this repository as template.

  2. Generate your github personal acccess token and copy it in clipboard.

  3. Add the github personal access token in the forked repository's secrets with the name AUTH_TOKEN.

  4. Now, go to EvalAI to fetch the following details -

    1. evalai_user_auth_token - Go to profile page after logging in and click on Get your Auth Token to copy your auth token.
    2. host_team_pk - Go to host team page and copy the ID for the team you want to use for challenge creation.
    3. evalai_host_url - Use https://eval.ai for production server and https://staging.eval.ai for staging server.
  5. Create a branch with name challenge in the forked repository from the master branch. Note: Only changes in challenge branch will be synchronized with challenge on EvalAI.

  6. Add evalai_user_auth_token and host_team_pk in github/host_config.json.

  7. Read EvalAI challenge creation documentation to know more about how you want to structure your challenge. Once you are ready, start making changes in the yaml file, HTML templates, evaluation script according to your need.

  8. Commit the changes and push the challenge branch in the repository and wait for the build to complete. View the logs of your build.

  9. If challenge config contains errors then a issue will be opened automatically in the repository with the errors otherwise the challenge will be created on EvalAI.

  10. Go to Hosted Challenges to view your challenge. The challenge will be publicly available once EvalAI admin approves the challenge.

  11. To update the challenge on EvalAI, make changes in the repository and push on challenge branch and wait for the build to complete.

Create challenge using config

  1. Fork this repository.

  2. Read EvalAI challenge creation documentation to know more about how you want to structure your challenge. Once you are ready, start making changes in the yaml file, HTML templates, evaluation script according to your need.

  3. Once you are done making changes, run the command ./run.sh to generate the challenge_config.zip.

  4. Upload the challenge_config.zip on EvalAI to create a challenge on EvalAI. Challenge will be available publicly once EvalAI Admin approves the challenge.

  5. To update the challenge on EvalAI, use the UI to update the details.

Test your evaluation script locally

In order to test the evaluation script locally before uploading it to EvalAI server, please follow the below instructions -

  1. Copy the evaluation script i.e __init__.py , main.py and other relevant files from evaluation_script/ directory to challenge_data/challenge_1/ directory.

  2. Now, edit challenge_phase name, annotation file name and submission file name in the worker/run.py file to the challenge phase codename (which you want to test for), annotation file name in the annotations/ folder (for specific phase) and corresponding submission file respectively.

  3. Run the command python -m worker.run from the directory where annotations/ challenge_data/ and worker/ directories are present. If the command runs successfully, then the evaluation script works locally and will work on the server as well.
