Printing model summaries for rllib models

Question:

I have not seen anything in the rllib documentation that would allow me to print a quick summary of the model like print(model.summary()) in keras. I tried using tf-slim and

variables = tf.compat.v1.model_variables()
slim.model_analyzer.analyze_vars(variables, print_info=True)

to get a rough idea for tensorflow models, but this found no variables after the model was initialized (inserted at the end of the ESTrainer class _init). Specifically, I have been trying to get a summary of an Evolutionary Strategy (ES) policy to verify that the changes to the model config are being updated as expected, but I have not been able to get a summary print working.

Is there an existing method for this? Is slim expected to work here?

Answers:

The training agent can return the policy which gives you access to the model:

agent = ppo.PPOTrainer(config, env=select_env)

policy = agent.get_policy()
policy.model.base_model.summary() # Prints the model summary

Sample output:
