Build a CI for your Spaces πŸš€

Gradio Space CI is a plugin (and package) to create ephemeral Spaces for each PR opened on your Space repo. The goal is to foster community contributions by making the review process as lean as possible.

Key features

  1. Listen to Pull Requests.
  2. Launch ephemeral Spaces on new PRs.
    1. When a commit is pushed to a PR, the ephemeral Space gets synchronized.
    2. When the PR is closed, the ephemeral Space is deleted.
  3. Configure ephemeral Spaces automatically
    1. All variables are copied from the main Space.
    2. Secrets are copied from the main Space, based on CI configuration.
    3. Hardware and storage are set, based on CI configuration.
  4. Only trusted authors are able to access secrets
    1. By default, repo owners are trusted authors
    2. More authors can be added in CI configuration
    3. untrusted authors can start ephemeral Space but without secrets or custom hardware

Want more? Please open an issue in the Community Tab! This is meant to be a community-driven implementation, enhanced by user feedback and contributions!

Integration

Integrate Gradio Space CI in just a few steps:

1. Update your requirements.txt

If you don't have a requirements.txt file yet, create one in your Space repo. Add the following line to it:

# requirements.txt
gradio-space-ci@git+https://huggingface.co/spaces/Wauplin/gradio-space-ci

2. Add a user token as HF_TOKEN secret

  1. Go to your user settings page.
  2. Create a new token with write permissions.
  3. Go to your Space settings page.
  4. Add HF_TOKEN as a Space secret with your newly created token.

(optional) You can also define a SPACE_CI_SECRET secret value that will be used to authenticate webhook calls. If you don't define one, a random secret value will be generated for you.

3. Configure CI in app.py

Import the gradio_space_ci package and update the last line of your app.py script, just before launching the Gradio app.

# app.py
import gradio as gr
from gradio_space_ci import configure_space_ci

# ANY gradio app
with gr.Blocks() as demo:
    ...

# Replace `demo.launch()` by `configure_space_ci(demo).launch()`.
configure_space_ci(
    demo,
    trusted_authors=[],  # space owners + manually trusted authors
    private="auto",  # ephemeral spaces will have same visibility as the main space. Otherwise, set to `True` or `False` explicitly.
    variables="auto",  # same variables as the main space. Otherwise, set to a `Dict[str, str]`.
    secrets=["HF_TOKEN"],  # which secret do I want to copy from the main space? Can be a `List[str]`.
    hardware=None,  # "cpu-basic" by default. Otherwise set to "auto" to have same hardware as the main space or any valid string value.
    storage=None,  # no storage by default. Otherwise set to "auto" to have same storage as the main space or any valid string value.
).launch()

And you're done! Ephemeral Spaces will be launched for each and every PR on your repo.
