Introduction
The Sustainability Calculator app is designed to help users estimate their environmental impact based on various parameters such as energy consumption, water usage, and waste production. By following this guide, you will learn how to create a simple yet effective tool that promotes eco-friendly practices.
Requirements
Before you start, make sure you have the following:
- A Hugging Face account
- Basic knowledge of Python programming
- An IDE or code editor (e.g., VS Code)
- Internet connection
Setup
- Clone the Repository:
Start by cloning the repository where the project files will be stored. Open your terminal and run:
git clone https://github.com/your-username/sustainability-calculator.git
- Navigate to the Project Directory:
Change the directory to the project folder:
cd sustainability-calculator
- Install Dependencies:
Ensure you have all the necessary dependencies installed. Create a
requirements.txt
file with the following content:
Install the dependencies using pip:gradio pandas
pip install -r requirements.txt
Building the App
Create the Main Script: Create a file named
app.py
and add the following code:import gradio as gr import pandas as pd def calculate_sustainability(energy, water, waste): energy_impact = energy * 0.3 water_impact = water * 0.2 waste_impact = waste * 0.1 total_impact = energy_impact + water_impact + waste_impact return f"Your sustainability impact score is: {total_impact}" inputs = [ gr.inputs.Number(label="Energy Consumption (kWh)"), gr.inputs.Number(label="Water Usage (liters)"), gr.inputs.Number(label="Waste Production (kg)") ] outputs = gr.outputs.Textbox() app = gr.Interface(fn=calculate_sustainability, inputs=inputs, outputs=outputs, title="Sustainability Calculator") app.launch()
Run the App: Execute the script to run the app locally:
python app.py
This will launch the Gradio interface in your web browser, allowing users to input their data and calculate their sustainability impact.
Deploying the App
Create a Hugging Face Space: Navigate to the Hugging Face website and create a new space for your app.
Upload the Files: Upload your project files (
app.py
andrequirements.txt
) to the Hugging Face space.Configure the Space: Ensure that the space is set to use Gradio as the SDK.
Deploy: Deploy the space to make your app publicly accessible.
Conclusion
Congratulations! You have successfully created and deployed a simple sustainability calculator app. This tool can help users become more aware of their environmental impact and make more sustainable choices.
