Add a valohai.yaml configuration file (R)

Valohai is completely technology agnostic. You can develop in notebooks or scripts in a language and framework of your choice.

Let’s start by bringing just a single job type to Valohai.

Using R or any other language

Create a new file called valohai.yaml and define a Step inside it.

In our example below, we’re telling Valohai to run myexample.R every time the step  train is run. 

- step:
    name: train
    image: r-base:3.4.2
    command: Rscript myexample.R

You can now upload your local code to Valohai and run the train step inside the Docker container you just defined.

vh execution run --adhoc train
