Utilizing Layered Entities

Overview​

Layering Entities​

  • Entities are global variables by default, making it difficult to handle user-specific inputs and outputs when the number of users is uncertain. global
  • By utilizing "Layered Entity," it is possible to accept parameterized requests and perform different processing and input/output for each user. layered
  • For details on the functionality, please refer to Using Layers.

Preparation​

(1) Download Files​

  • sample.zip
    • layered_blank.json: The JSON file for the working canvas used in the tutorial. Import this into the canvas.
    • layered_completed.json: The completed version of the canvas. Please refer to this at the end.
    • sample1.mov: The first sample video file.
    • sample2.mov: The second sample video file.

(2) Access StudioApp​

Access the URL below. Please replace <env-name> with your own.

https://app.<env-name>.studio.exabase.ai/
 # If you are unsure of <env-name>, please contact your internal representative.

Tutorial​

1. Import Files​

  • Create a new project by clicking the + New Project button in StudioApp (you can name the project as you like).
  • Import the downloaded JSON file into the canvas.

2. Implement Processing on the Canvas​

Refer to the sticky notes on the canvas for specific implementation methods.

  • In this tutorial, changes to Entity settings and front-end code will be made.
    • (1) Change Entity e01, e02 to FileEntity(Layered)
    • (2) Rewrite the HTML of SideApp (webserver)
  • Use the images already uploaded on AWS ECR for the ML models required for processing. Specify the image URI from the Function node.

3. Deploy​

  • Click the Deploy button at the upper right of the screen and enter the tenant ID to deploy.

    ※ If you are unsure of the tenant ID, please contact your internal representative.

4. Set Up Upload Page​

  • Once deployment is successful, open two pages for video upload/download. URL structure for the pages:
https://studio.{env-name}.studio.exabase.ai/{tenant-id}/ws03/webserver/
*Modify the texts in {} according to your environment
  • Set the URL and parameters for each page. Enter different arbitrary values for the parameters on the two pages.

Input Example​

upload1

5. Execute Processing​

  • Upload sample01.mov and sample02.mov from the samples on each page to initiate processing.

6. Check Execution Results​

  • After processing is complete, a value will appear in the FileId on the screen, and a download link will be created. Download the video file from the link and confirm that it has been processed correctly.

Tips​

Combining Layered Entities and Default Entities​

  • It is also possible to combine layered entities with the default global variable entities (Shared Entity) as shown in the figure below. hybrid
