# FlowController
|

|
||
<Class id="qiskit.passmanager.FlowController" isDedicatedPage={true} github="https://github.com/qiskit/qiskit/tree/stable/0.46/qiskit/passmanager/flow_controllers.py" signature="qiskit.passmanager.FlowController(options=None)" modifiers="class">
|
||
Bases: [`BaseController`](qiskit.passmanager.BaseController "qiskit.passmanager.base_tasks.BaseController")
|
||
|
||
A legacy factory for other flow controllers.
|
||
|
||
<Admonition title="Warning" type="caution">
|
||
This class is primarily for compatibility with legacy versions of Qiskit, and in general, you should prefer simply instantiating the controller you want, and adding it to the relevant [`PassManager`](qiskit.transpiler.PassManager "qiskit.transpiler.PassManager") or other controller. Its use is deprecated.
|
||
</Admonition>
|
||
|
||
This allows syntactic sugar for writing pipelines. For example:
|
||
|
||
```python
|
||
FlowController.add_flow_controller("my_condition", CustomController)
|
||
|
||
controller = FlowController.controller_factory(
|
||
[PassA(), PassB()],
|
||
{"max_iteration": 1000},
|
||
condition=lambda prop_set: prop_set["x"] == 0,
|
||
do_while=lambda prop_set: prop_set["x"] < 100,
|
||
my_condition=lambda prop_set: prop_set["y"] = "abc",
|
||
)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
This creates a nested flow controller that runs when the value `x` in the [`PropertySet`](qiskit.passmanager.PropertySet "qiskit.passmanager.PropertySet") is zero and repeats the pipeline until the value becomes 100. In each innermost loop, the custom iteration condition provided by the `CustomController` is also evaluated.
|
||
|
||
<Admonition title="Warning" type="caution">
|
||
[`BaseController`](qiskit.passmanager.BaseController "qiskit.passmanager.BaseController") must be directly subclassed to define a custom flow controller. This class provides a controller factory method, which consumes a class variable [`registered_controllers`](#qiskit.passmanager.FlowController.registered_controllers "qiskit.passmanager.FlowController.registered_controllers"). Subclassing FlowController may cause unexpected behavior in the factory method. Note that factory method implicitly determines the priority of the builtin controllers when multiple controllers are called together, and the behavior of generated controller is hardly debugged.

<Admonition title="Deprecated since version 0.46.0" type="danger">
|
||
The class `qiskit.passmanager.flow_controllers.FlowController` is deprecated as of qiskit 0.46.0. It will be removed in the 1.0 release. The base class of flow controller is now qiskit.passmanager.BaseController. This class exists only for the controller namespace used to map a controller name tothe corresponding class object, which is used to instantiate a controller with keyword argument in PassManager.append method. This pattern was also deprecated.

## Methods
|
||
|
||
### add\_flow\_controller
|
||
|
||
<Function id="qiskit.passmanager.FlowController.add_flow_controller" signature="add_flow_controller(name, controller)" modifiers="classmethod">
|
||
Adds a flow controller.
|
||
|
||
<Admonition title="Deprecated since version 0.45.0" type="danger">
|
||
The method `qiskit.passmanager.flow_controllers.FlowController.add_flow_controller()` is deprecated as of qiskit 0.45.0. It will be removed in the 1.0 release. The controller factory method is deprecated and managing the custom flow controllers with aliases no longer helps building the task pipeline. Controllers must be explicitly instantiated and appended to the pipeline.
|
||
</Admonition>
|
||
|
||
**Parameters**
|
||
|
||
* **name** ([*str*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str "(in Python v3.12)")) – Alias of controller class in the namespace.
|
||
* **controller** ([*Type*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/typing.html#typing.Type "(in Python v3.12)")*\[*[*BaseController*](qiskit.passmanager.BaseController "qiskit.passmanager.base_tasks.BaseController")*]*) – Flow controller class.
|
||
</Function>
|
||
|
||
### controller\_factory
|
||
|
||
<Function id="qiskit.passmanager.FlowController.controller_factory" signature="controller_factory(passes, options, **controllers)" modifiers="classmethod">
|
||
Create a new flow controller with normalization.
|
||
|
||
<Admonition title="Deprecated since version 0.45.0" type="danger">
|
||
The method `qiskit.passmanager.flow_controllers.FlowController.controller_factory()` is deprecated as of qiskit 0.45.0. It will be removed in the 1.0 release. FlowController objects must be explicitly instantiated. Building controllers with keyword arguments ignores the order when multiple keyword arguments are provided together, which is likely unsafe.
|
||
</Admonition>
|
||
|
||
**Parameters**
|
||
|
||
* **passes** (*Task |* [*list*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list "(in Python v3.12)")*\[Task]*) – A list of optimization tasks.
|
||
* **options** ([*dict*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#dict "(in Python v3.12)")) – Option for this flow controller.
|
||
* **controllers** – Dictionary of controller callables keyed on flow controller alias.
|
||
|
||
**Returns**
|
||
|
||
An instance of normalized flow controller.

||
</Function>
|
||
|
||
### execute
|
||
|
||
<Function id="qiskit.passmanager.FlowController.execute" signature="execute(passmanager_ir, state, callback=None)">
|
||
Execute optimization task for input Qiskit IR.
|
||
|
||
**Parameters**
|
||
|
||

|
||
* **state** ([*PassManagerState*](qiskit.passmanager.PassManagerState "qiskit.passmanager.compilation_status.PassManagerState")) – State associated with workflow execution by the pass manager itself.
|
||
* **callback** ([*Callable*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/collections.abc.html#collections.abc.Callable "(in Python v3.12)") *| None*) – A callback function which is caller per execution of optimization task.
|
||
|
||
**Returns**
|
||
|
||
Optimized Qiskit IR and state of the workflow.
|
||
|
||
**Return type**
|
||
|
||
[tuple](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#tuple "(in Python v3.12)")\[[*Any*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/typing.html#typing.Any "(in Python v3.12)"), [qiskit.passmanager.compilation\_status.PassManagerState](qiskit.passmanager.PassManagerState "qiskit.passmanager.compilation_status.PassManagerState")]

|
||
### iter\_tasks
|
||
|
||
<Function id="qiskit.passmanager.FlowController.iter_tasks" signature="iter_tasks(state)" modifiers="abstract">
|
||
A custom logic to choose a next task to run.
|
||
|
||
Controller subclass can consume the state to build a proper task pipeline. The updated state after a task execution will be fed back in as the “return” value of any `yield` statements. This indicates the order of task execution is only determined at running time. This method is not allowed to mutate the given state object.
|
||
|
||
**Parameters**
|
||
|
||
* **state** ([*PassManagerState*](qiskit.passmanager.PassManagerState "qiskit.passmanager.compilation_status.PassManagerState")) – The state of the passmanager workflow at the beginning of this flow controller’s execution.
|
||
* **state** – the state of pass manager after the execution of the last task that was yielded. The generator does not need to inspect this if it is irrelevant to its logic, nor update it.
|
||
|
||
**Yields**
|
||
|
||
*Task* – Next task to run.
|
||
|
||
**Return type**
|
||
|
||
[*Generator*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/collections.abc.html#collections.abc.Generator "(in Python v3.12)")\[*Task*, [*PassManagerState*](qiskit.passmanager.PassManagerState "qiskit.passmanager.compilation_status.PassManagerState"), None]

**Parameters**
