> [!IMPORTANT] 
> WebLINX is now available as a benchmark through [BrowserGym](https://github.com/ServiceNow/BrowserGym), allowing you to access demonstration steps in the same way you would access a web agent environment like [WebArena](https://webarena.dev/) or [MiniWoB](https://miniwob.farama.org/index.html). This also allows you to run agents from the [Agentlab](https://github.com/ServiceNow/AgentLab) library, including agents that achieve SOTA performance through Claude-3.5-Sonnet. To enable this integration, we are releasing the `weblinx-browsergym` extension for BrowserGym on PyPi, as well as a [new dataset, WebLINX 1.1, derived from WebLINX on Huggingface](https://huggingface.co/datasets/McGill-NLP/weblinx-browsergym). In WebLINX 1.1, a small number of demonstrations were removed after processing, but no new demonstration was added. There are substantial changes to the steps being evaluated, with the inclusion of tab actions. Please report your results as "WebLINX-1.1", "WebLINX-BrowserGym" or "WebLINX-BG" in your work, to differentiate from the [initial release of weblinx (1.0)](https://huggingface.co/datasets/McGill-NLP/WebLINX/tree/v1.0).

## Intro

Welcome to `WebLINX`'s official repository! In addition to providing code used to train [the models](https://huggingface.co/collections/McGill-NLP/weblinx-models-65c57d4afeeb282d1dcf8434) reported in our [WebLINX paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2402.05930), we also provide a comprehensive Python library (aka API) to help you work with the [WebLINX dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/McGill-NLP/WebLINX).

## Structure

This repository is structured in the following way:

| Module | Description |
| --- | --- |
| `weblinx` | The `__init__.py` provides many useful abstractions to provide a Pythonic experience when working with the dataset. For example, you can use `weblinx.Demonstration` to manipulate a demonstration at a high-level, `weblinx.Replay` to focus on more finegrained details of the demonstration, including iterating over turns, or `weblinx.Turn` to focus on a specific turn. All relevant information is included in the documentations! |
| `weblinx.eval` | Code for evaluating action models trained with WebLINX, it has both `import`able functions/metrics, but can also be accessed via command line |
| `weblinx.processing` | Code for processing various inputs or outputs used by the models, it is extensively used in the models' processing code |
| `weblinx.utils` | Miscellaneous utility functions used across the codebase. |

## Modeling

Our `modeling/` repo-level directory has code for processing, training and evaluating the models reported in the paper (DMR, LLaMA, MindAct, Pix2Act, Flan-T5). It is separate from the `weblinx` library, which focuses on data processing and evaluation. You can use it by cloning this repository, and it is recommended to edit the files in `modeling/` directly for your own needs. Our modeling code is separate from the `weblinx` library, but requires it as a dependency. You can install the modeling code by running:

```bash
# First, install the base package
pip install weblinx

# Then, clone this repo
git clone https://github.com/McGill-NLP/weblinx
cd weblinx/modeling
```

For the rest of the instructions, please take a look at the [modeling README](./modeling/README.md).

## Evaluation

To install packages necessary for evaluation, run:

```bash
pip install weblinx[eval]
```

You can now access the evaluation module by importing in Python:

```python
import weblinx.eval
```

Use `weblinx.eval.metrics` for evaluation metrics, `weblinx.eval.__init__` for useful evaluation-related functions. You may also find it useful to take a look at `weblinx.processing.outputs` to get an idea of how to use the outputs of the model for evaluation.

To run the automatic evaluation, you can use the following command:

```bash
python -m weblinx.eval --help
```

For more examples on how to use `weblinx.eval`, take a look at the [modeling README](./modeling/README.md).

> Note: We are still working on the code for `weblinx.eval` and `weblinx.processing.outputs`. If you have any questions or would like to contribute docs, please feel free to open an issue or a pull request.
