Kaggles

A collection of Kaggle competitions I have participated in.

Usage

1. Create Virtual Environment

script/create_venv.sh

2. Create Competition Directory

cd kaggles
mkdir -p <competition_name>/kernels

3. Download Competition Data

script/download_data.sh

4. Pull Competition Kernels

script/pull_kernels.sh <competition_name>

5. Push Competition Kernels

kaggle k push -p <competition_name>/kernels/<kernel_dir>

Utility Scripts

Kaggle supports utility scripts to help avoid code duplication but they can be a little tricky to set up with a repo. This is how it's done here:

1. Create a new kernel and add the utility code to it. E.g. home-data-for-ml-course/src/
2. Push the kernel to Kaggle. kaggle k push -p home-data-for-ml-course/src/
3. Go to Kaggle, open the utility kernel with the editor and click File -> Set as utility script.
4. For kernels that depend on the utility script, add the utility kernel to the kernel_sources list in the kernel-metadata.json file. E.g.

   "kernel_sources": [
       "danielmcampos/house-price-utils"
   ],

   Alternatively, click File -> Add utility script and select the utility script.
