# Gym HTTP Server
[](https://travis-ci.org/saravanabalagi/gym-http-server)
This project provides a local REST API to the [gym](https://github.com/openai/gym) open-source library, allowing development in languages other than python.
The package includes an [example client](gym_http_server/example_client.py) and an [example agent](gym_http_server/example_agent.py), to demonstrate how to interact with the server.
## Installation
Install the package using pip:
```sh
pip install gym-http-server
```
## Usage
### Direct Usage
Use it simply from anywhere by calling
```sh
gym-http-server
```
If you would like to run on a specific port, use `--listen` and `--port`
```sh
gym-http-server -l 127.0.0.1 -p 5000
```
### Pythonic Usage
If you want to use this inside your python script,
```python
from gym_http_server import start_server
start_server()
```
If you want to specify ip and port,
```python
start_server(listen=='127.0.0.1', port==5000)
```
### Verify installation
The package includes an [example client](gym_http_server/example_client.py) and an [example agent](gym_http_server/example_agent.py).
To check connectivity with the server, start the server and run in separate terminal
```sh
start gym-http-server # windows
gym-http-server & # linux and mac
```
and then run example client to perform a single step in `CartPole-v0`
```sh
python -m gym_http_server.example_client
```
or the example agent to perform 100 episodes in the same environment
```sh
python -m gym_http_server.example_agent
```
And you can also check the logs stored at `tmp` folder.
## API specification
* POST `/v1/envs/`
* Create an instance of the specified environment
* param: `env_id` -- gym environment ID string, such as 'CartPole-v0'
* returns: `instance_id` -- a short identifier (such as '3c657dbc')
for the created environment instance. The instance_id is
used in future API calls to identify the environment to be
manipulated
* GET `/v1/envs/`
* List all environments running on the server
* returns: `envs` -- dict mapping `instance_id` to `env_id`
(e.g. `{'3c657dbc': 'CartPole-v0'}`) for every env on the server
* POST `/v1/envs//reset/`
* Reset the state of the environment and return an initial
observation.
* param: `instance_id` -- a short identifier (such as '3c657dbc')
for the environment instance
* returns: `observation` -- the initial observation of the space
* POST `/v1/envs//step/`
* Step though an environment using an action.
* param: `instance_id` -- a short identifier (such as '3c657dbc')
for the environment instance
* param: `action` -- an action to take in the environment
* returns: `observation` -- agent's observation of the current
environment
* returns: `reward` -- amount of reward returned after previous action
* returns: `done` -- whether the episode has ended
* returns: `info` -- a dict containing auxiliary diagnostic information
* GET `/v1/envs//action_space/`
* Get information (name and dimensions/bounds) of the env's
`action_space`
* param: `instance_id` -- a short identifier (such as '3c657dbc')
for the environment instance
* returns: `info` -- a dict containing 'name' (such as 'Discrete'), and
additional dimensional info (such as 'n') which varies from
space to space
* GET `/v1/envs//observation_space/`
* Get information (name and dimensions/bounds) of the env's
`observation_space`
* param: `instance_id` -- a short identifier (such as '3c657dbc')
for the environment instance
* returns: `info` -- a dict containing 'name' (such as 'Discrete'), and
additional dimensional info (such as 'n') which varies from
space to space
* POST `/v1/envs//monitor/start/`
* Start monitoring
* param: `instance_id` -- a short identifier (such as '3c657dbc')
for the environment instance
* param: `force` (default=False) -- Clear out existing training
data from this directory (by deleting every file
prefixed with "openaigym.")
* param: `resume` (default=False) -- Retain the training data
already in this directory, which will be merged with
our new data
* (NOTE: the `video_callable` parameter from the native
`env.monitor.start` function is NOT implemented)
* POST `/v1/envs//monitor/close/`
* Flush all monitor data to disk
* param: `instance_id` -- a short identifier (such as '3c657dbc')
for the environment instance
* POST `/v1/upload/`
* Flush all monitor data to disk
* param: `training_dir` -- A directory containing the results of a
training run.
* param: `api_key` -- Your OpenAI API key
* param: `algorithm_id` (default=None) -- An arbitrary string
indicating the paricular version of the algorithm
(including choices of parameters) you are running.
* POST `/v1/shutdown/`
* Request a server shutdown
* Currently used by the integration tests to repeatedly create and destroy fresh copies of the server running in a separate thread
