I had the same solution, but unsure of the dynamics of the AbstractMCMC
interface changes, so maybe wait for @devmotion?

Do you know where resume_from
is documented?

keeping it backwards compatible for now.
AFAICT we have to tag a breaking release of DynamicPPL anyway, regardless of initial_state
/resume_from
since init_params
does not work anymore.
initial_state
and resume_from
are a bit different though, initial_state
is supposed to be an actual state/transition of the sampler whereas currently for resume_from
we support Chains
objects (which potentially store the final state of the sampler as metadata). I'm not sure though if maybe we should just demand that users extract the state manually (possibly with some helper function) in the future.
I think there was some reason for why I did not add it as a keyword argument but right now I don't remember and I don't see an immediate problem.

@devmotion, maybe this will do the trick? The advantage is it allows one to override the
initial_state
argument while keeping it backwards compatible for now. We can removeresume_from
in the next breaking release.
