使用过Huggingface的开发者，应该见过如下的界面，方便用户在文本框直接输入query，然后使用模型来预测输出答案

接下来，我们看一下实现步骤（使用的部署工具是python包gradio）：

Note：部署工具可以在python任意的IDE运行，比如pycharm、jupyter notebook以及Google Colab，下面以Google Colab为例进行展示GPT-2模型的部署步骤：

Step1：首先就是安装python包

!pip install gradio!pip install transformers

Step2：为了便于理解，我们首先实现一个输入文本，输出文本的demo，代码如下：

# Let’s get started with a simple “Hello World”import gradio as gr
def greet(name):    return "Hello " + name
# We instantiate the Textbox classdemo = gr.Interface(fn=greet, inputs="text", outputs="text")
demo.launch()

运行上述脚本，会生成如下界面：

用户在name文本框中输入文本“x”，会在output文本框中生成“Hello x”文本内容

Step3：当然以上demo也是可以进行润色的

# Upgrade “Hello World” import gradio as gr
def greet(name):    return "Hello " + name
# We instantiate the Textbox classtextbox_input = gr.Textbox(label="Type your name here:", placeholder="John Doe", lines=2)textbox2_output = gr.Textbox(label="View output result here:", placeholder="Arron", lines=2)demo = gr.Interface(fn=greet, inputs=textbox_input, outputs=textbox2_output)
demo.launch(debug=True, share=True)

Step4：我们在了解基于的操作之后，我们以一个GPT-2模型为例说明算法模型是如何部署的

# Let’s now build a simple interface that allows you to demo a text-generation model like GPT-2.from transformers import pipeline
model = pipeline("text-generation")
def predict(prompt):    completion = model(prompt)[0]["generated_text"]    return completion

运行上述代码，会下载GPT-2模型

Step5：我们先来看一下GPT-2模型的预测结果

# Predict prompt based on GPT-2predict("My favorite programming language is")

My favorite programming language is Python. It comes in both standard and custom forms, and each supports different types of manipulation. Here's a look at three of the most popular forms in Python, but you're welcome to share your own.

Step6：我们使用gradio部署模型来进行预测，由于GPT-2模型的生成是随机的，因此两次结果不一定会完全一致

# Using gradio API to visual the GPT-2 modelimport gradio as gr
gr.Interface(fn=predict, inputs="text", outputs="text").launch()

gradio的主要API介绍：

Interface(fn, inputs, outputs, ...)

These parameters are:

• fn: the prediction function that is wrapped by the Gradio interface. This function can take one or more parameters and return one or more values

• inputs: the input component type(s). Gradio provides many pre-built components such as"image" or "mic".

• outputs: the output component type(s). Again, Gradio provides many pre-built components e.g. "image" or "label".

You can customize the behavior of launch() through different parameters:

• inline - whether to display the interface inline on Python notebooks.

• inbrowser - whether to automatically launch the interface in a new tab on the default browser.

• share - whether to create a publicly shareable link from your computer for the interface. Kind of like a Google Drive link!
