Tensorboard name logdir is not defined

Question

I was installing tensorboard using pip install tensorboard. All worked fine

I run my network and the writer also worked fine

with tf.Session() as sess:
    writer = tf.summary.FileWriter("pathtofolder", sess.graph)
    print(sess.run(h))
    writer.close()

now I wanted to see in tensorboard how it learned

I inserted

import tensorflow, tensorboard

tensorboard --logdir /pathtofolder

and received the error message. NameError: name 'logdir' is not defined

Answer 1

You should execute the command on terminal/cmd.

Open your terminal/cmd and run:

tensorboard --logdir ./PATH_TO_THE_EVENT_FILES
