A Gradio API and an OpenAI-compliant API are supported. You can also use curl
to some extent for basic API.
An OpenAI compliant client is available. For more information, refer to the h2oGPT client README.
h2oGPT's generate.py
by default runs a gradio server, which also gives access to client API using the Gradio Python client. You can use it with h2oGPT, or independently of h2oGPT repository by installing an env:
conda create -n gradioclient -y
conda activate gradioclient
conda install python=3.10 -y
pip install gradio_client==0.6.1
# Download Gradio Wrapper code if GradioClient class used, not needed for native Gradio Client
# No wheel for now
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/h2oai/h2ogpt/main/gradio_utils/grclient.py
mkdir -p gradio_utils
mv grclient.py gradio_utils
Run client code with Gradio's native client:
from gradio_client import Client
import ast
HOST_URL = "http://localhost:7860"
client = Client(HOST_URL)
# string of dict for input
kwargs = dict(instruction_nochat='Who are you?')
res = client.predict(str(dict(kwargs)), api_name='/submit_nochat_api')
# string of dict for output
response = ast.literal_eval(res)['response']
print(response)
You can also stream the response. The following is a complete example code of streaming each updated text fragment to the console so that they appear to stream in the console:
from gradio_client import Client
import ast
import time
HOST = 'http://localhost:7860'
client = Client(HOST)
api_name = '/submit_nochat_api'
prompt = "Who are you?"
kwargs = dict(instruction_nochat=prompt, stream_output=True)
job = client.submit(str(dict(kwargs)), api_name=api_name)
text_old = ''
while not job.done():
outputs_list = job.communicator.job.outputs
if outputs_list:
res = job.communicator.job.outputs[-1]
res_dict = ast.literal_eval(res)
text = res_dict['response']
new_text = text[len(text_old):]
if new_text:
print(new_text, end='', flush=True)
text_old = text
time.sleep(0.01)
# handle case if never got streaming response and already done
res_final = job.outputs()
if len(res_final) > 0:
res = res_final[-1]
res_dict = ast.literal_eval(res)
text = res_dict['response']
new_text = text[len(text_old):]
print(new_text)
You can run client code with the h2oGPT wrapper class for Gradio's client, which adds extra exception handling and h2oGPT-specific calls.
For talking to just LLM, Document Q/A, summarization, and extraction, you can do:
def test_readme_example(local_server):
# self-contained example used for readme, to be copied to README_CLIENT.md if changed, setting local_server = True at first
import os
# The grclient.py file can be copied from h2ogpt repo and used with local gradio_client for example use
from gradio_utils.grclient import GradioClient
if local_server:
client = GradioClient("http://0.0.0.0:7860")
else:
h2ogpt_key = os.getenv('H2OGPT_KEY') or os.getenv('H2OGPT_H2OGPT_KEY')
if h2ogpt_key is None:
return
# if you have API key for public instance:
client = GradioClient("https://gpt.h2o.ai", h2ogpt_key=h2ogpt_key)
# LLM
print(client.question("Who are you?"))
url = "https://cdn.openai.com/papers/whisper.pdf"
# Q/A
print(client.query("What is whisper?", url=url))
# summarization (map_reduce over all pages if top_k_docs=-1)
print(client.summarize("What is whisper?", url=url, top_k_docs=3))
# extraction (map per page)
print(client.extract("Give bullet for all key points", url=url, top_k_docs=3))
test_readme_example(local_server=True)
For other ways to use gradio client, see example test code or other tests in our tests. E.g. test_client_chat_stream_langchain_steps3
in client tests uses many different API calls for docs etc.s
Note that any element in gradio_runner.py with api_name
defined can be accessed via the gradio client.
>>> from gradio_client import Client
>>> client = Client('http://localhost:7860')
Loaded as API: http://localhost:7860/ ✔
>>> import ast
>>> res = client.predict(api_name='/model_names')
>>> {x['base_model']: x['max_seq_len'] for x in ast.literal_eval(res)}

You can specify the h2oGPT server to have --async_output=True
and --num_async=10
(or some optimal value) to enable full parallel summarization when the h2oGPT server uses --inference_server
that points to Gradio Inference Server, vLLM, text-generation inference (TGI) server, or OpenAI servers to allow for high tokens/sec.
As long as objects within the gradio_runner.py
file for a given api_name are for a function without gr.State()
objects, then curl can work. Note that full curl
capability is not yet supported in Gradio.
For example, for a server launched as:
python generate.py --base_model=TheBloke/Llama-2-7b-Chat-GPTQ --load_gptq="model" --use_safetensors=True --prompt_type=llama2 --save_dir=fooasdf --system_prompt='auto'
you can use the submit_nochat_plain_api
, which has no state
objects, to perform chat via curl
by entering the following command:
curl 127.0.0.1:7860/api/submit_nochat_plain_api -X POST -d '{"data": ["{\"instruction_nochat\": \"Who are you?\"}"]}' -H 'Content-Type: application/json'
and get back for a 7B LLaMA2-chat GPTQ model:

This response contains the full dictionary of data
from the curl
operation as well as the data contents that are a string of a dictionary like when using the API submit_nochat_api
for Gradio client. This inner string of a dictionary can be parsed as a literal python string to get keys response
, source
, save_dict
, where save_dict
contains metadata about the query such as generation hyperparameters, tokens generated, etc.
