1. Added `from petals.client import *` to `petals/__init__.py`, so you can write just that:
```python
from petals import DistributedBloomForCausalLM
```
I didn't do the same with server, since its classes are supposed to by used by `petals.cli.run_server`, not end-users. Though it's still possible to do `from petals.server.smth import smth` if necessary.
2. Fixed one more logging issue: log lines from hivemind were shown twice due to a bug in #156.
3. Removed unused `runtime.py`, since the server actually uses `hivemind.moe.Runtime`, and `runtime.py` has no significant changes comparing to it.
1. Petals can be now installed using `pip install git+https://github.com/bigscience-workshop/petals`
- In case if you already cloned the repo, you can do `pip install .` or `pip install .[dev]`
2. Moved `src` => `src/petals`
- Replaced `from src.smth import smth` with `from petals.smth import smth`
3. Moved `cli` => `src/petals/cli`
- Replaced `python -m cli.run_smth` with `python -m petals.cli.run_smth` (all utilities are now available right after pip installation)
4. Moved the `requirements*.txt` contents to `setup.cfg` (`requirements.txt` for packages is not supported well by modern packaging utils)
5. Increased the package version from `0.2` to `1.0alpha1`
- run_server now accepts model name as both positional and keyword argument
- changed names in README to account for interface updates
- moved model conversion from README to a separate wiki page
- updated requirements.txt
- Maximum length is now provided in `.inference_session(max_length=100)`
- previously, we would always assume max length = 2048
- added a generic way to forward **kwargs to inference session
- for compatibility with #47
- Note to @borzunov : it does *not* pass them arbitrarily, but instead checks for kwarg names at the bottom level
- run_server can be started with a custom max_length for inference
- renamed --cache_size_bytes to --attention_cache_bytes (to avoid collision with --cache_dir)
- --attn_cache_bytes can now support humane file sizes (e.g. 300MB instead of 314572800)
- made some server-side errors more human-readable to user (e.g. when max length is exceeded)
