My goal: Add arbitrary text to tensorboard.

My code:

text = "muh teeeext"
summary = tf.summary.text("Muh taaaag", tf.convert_to_tensor(text))
writer.add_summary(summary)

My error:

  File xxx, line xxx, in xxxwriter.add_summary(summary)File "/home/xxx/.local/lib/python3.5/site-packages/tensorflow/python/summary/writer/writer.py", line 123, in add_summaryfor value in summary.value:
AttributeError: 'Tensor' object has no attribute 'value'

writer.add_summary(summary) is a tensor. the tensorboard writer expects a string for the summary. To get the summary from the tensor, add an eval() to the add_summary line like so:

writer.add_summary(summary).eval()
