0.3.0

🔄 Changes & Deprecations

• Deprecation of TimeGPT Class:
  In an effort to streamline our API and align with industry best practices, we're deprecating the TimeGPT class in favor of the new NixtlaClient class. This change is designed to provide a more intuitive and powerful interface for interacting with our services.

  Before:

  from nixtlats import TimeGPT
  
  # Initialize the TimeGPT model
  timegpt = TimeGPT()

  After:

  from nixtlats import NixtlaClient
  
  # Initialize the NixtlaClient
  nixtla = NixtlaClient()

• Renaming of Configuration Parameters:
  To enhance clarity and consistency with other SDKs, we've renamed the token parameter to api_key and environment to base_url.

  Before:

  timegpt = TimeGPT(token='YOUR_TOKEN', environment='YOUR_ENVIRONMENT_URL')

  After:

  nixtla = NixtlaClient(api_key='YOUR_API_KEY', base_url='YOUR_BASE_URL')

• Introduction of NixtlaClient.validate_api_key:
  Replacing the previous NixtlaClient.validate_token method, this update aligns with the new authentication parameter naming and offers a straightforward way to validate API keys.

  Before:

  timegpt.validate_token()

  After:

  nixtla.validate_api_key()

• Environment Variable Changes:
  In line with the renaming of parameters, we've updated the environment variables to set up the API key and base URL. The TIMEGPT_TOKEN is now replaced with NIXTLA_API_KEY, and we've introduced NIXTLA_BASE_URL for custom API URLs.

• Backward Compatibility & Future Warnings:
  These changes are designed to be backward compatible. However, users can expect to see future warnings when utilizing deprecated features, such as the TimeGPT class.

0.2.0 (Previously Released)

🔄 Changes & Deprecations

• Renaming of Fine-Tuning Parameters:
  The finetune_steps and finetune_loss parameters were renamed to fewshot_steps and fewshot_loss. Additionally, the model parameter values changed from short-horizon and long-horizon to timegpt-1 and timegpt-1-long-horizon, with an emphasis on preserving backward compatibility. In version 0.3.0, these changes are deprecated in favor of reverting to the original parameter names and values, ensuring a seamless transition for existing users.

Features

• feat: update docs in #268
• feat: add moirai benchmark in #271
• feat: replace token by api_key and environment by base_url in #275
• feat: replace TimeGPT class by NixtlaClient class in #276

🚀 Feature Enhancements

Forecast Using Diverse Models 🌐

Release of new forecasting methods. Among the updates, we've unveiled the timegpt-1-long-horizon model, crafted specifically for long-term forecasts that span multiple seasonalities. To use it, simply specify the model in your methods like so:

from nixtlats import TimeGPT

# Initialize the TimeGPT model
timegpt = TimeGPT()

# Generate forecasts using the long-horizon model
fcst_df = timegpt.forecast(..., model='timegpt-1-long-horizon')

# Perform cross-validation with the long-horizon model
cv_df = timegpt.cross_validation(..., model='timegpt-1-long-horizon')

# Detect anomalies with the long-horizon model
anomalies_df = timegpt.detect_anomalies(..., model='timegpt-1-long-horizon')

Choose between timegpt-1 for the first version of TimeGPT or timegpt-1-long-horizon for long horizon tasks..

Cross-Validation Methodology 📊

You can dive deeper into your forecasting pipelines with the new cross_validation feature. This method enables you to validate forecasts across different windows efficiently:

# Set up cross-validation with a custom horizon, number of windows, and step size
cv_df = timegpt.cross_validation(df, h=35, n_windows=5, step_size=5)

This will generate 5 distinct forecast sets, each with a horizon of 35, stepping through your data every 5 timestamps.

Retry Behavior for Robust API Calls 🔁

The new retry mechanism allows the making of more robust API calls (preventing them from crashing with large-scale tasks).

• max_retries: Number of max retries for an API call.
• retry_interval: Pause between retries.
• max_wait_time: Total duration of retries.

timegpt = TimeGPT(max_retries=10, retry_interval=5, max_wait_time=360)

Token Inference Made Simple 🔑

The TimeGPT class now automatically infers your TIMEGPT_TOKEN using os.environ.get('TIMEGPT_TOKEN'), streamlining your setup:

# No more manual token handling - TimeGPT has got you covered
timegpt = TimeGPT()
