def parse_args():
    parser = argparse.ArgumentParse(
        description="sample task"
    )

    parser.add_argument(
        "--some_bool_arg",

## If the YAML was generated through the `accelerate config` command: ``` accelerate launch {script_name.py} {--arg1} {--arg2} ... ``` If the YAML is saved to a `~/config.yaml` file: ``` accelerate launch --config_file ~/config.yaml {script_name.py} {--arg1} {--arg2} ... ``` ## SageMaker does not support argparse actions. As a result if a script parameter would normally be a boolean, you need to specify the type as `bool` in the script and provide an explicit `True` or `False` value. Also, when using SageMaker all output artifacts should use `/opt/ml/model` or `os.environ["SM_MODEL_DIR"]` as your save directory. After training, artifacts in this directory are uploaded to S3. ## To learn more checkout the related documentation: - How to use 🤗 Accelerate with SageMaker - Examples showcasing AWS SageMaker integration of 🤗 Accelerate - The Command Line
