Description
“No data” messages are out of date
The messages that appear when you select a dashboard for which no data
is loaded are out of date. From a quick skim:
- Some links point to “the TensorBoard tutorial” putatively located at
https://www.tensorflow.org/get_started/summaries_and_tensorboard,
but that link now redirects to the general TensorFlow tutorials
subsite, https://www.tensorflow.org/tutorials. - Likewise for the “graph visualizer tutorial”.
- The graphs dashboard suggests creating a
tf.summary.FileWriterand
calling itsadd_graphmethod; this class does not exist in TF 2.0
(except viacompat.v1), and graph tracing is now done via the
tf.summary.trace_*functions. - The profile dashboard’s first tutorial link is broken (404):
https://colab.research.google.com/github/tensorflow/tensorboard/blob/master/docs/r2/tensorboard_profiling_keras.ipynb - Beholder.
- The projector dashboard doesn’t have the necessary recommendations
for TF 2.0 (cf. #2471). - Some dashboards have no “no-data” help text at all: PR curves, HParams.
Contributor guide
First steps
- Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
- Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
- Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
- Open a pull request that references the issue number.
Research direction
Start by locating the no-data help text for the dashboards listed in the issue, then verify each TensorFlow and Colab link and the current TensorFlow 2.0 guidance. Done means outdated instructions and broken links are updated, missing PR curves and HParams help is addressed, and the listed dashboards consistently show accurate no-data messages.
