`gr.Interface.load(hugging_model_repo)` -> AssertionError: Invalid model name or src

🔒 Gradio

Hi,

I’m trying to use the gr.Interface.load() to create a quick demo from a ViT fine-tuned model repo, but there is an error during the building (here is the demo repo, also error below). I made another demo following the same process before (ViT + fine-tuning → model repo → gradio), and it works. Any help finding hints about the assertion error is welcome :blush:; the model is correctly fetching: Fetching model from: https://huggingface.co/alkzar90/skynet (and the repo URL is ok).

The dataset is the only difference between model repos, but both models were trained using the transformer pipeline.

Hi @alkzar90 !

Might be because you have to accept the license prior to using the model with the inference api?

I wonder if passing in your huggingface token to gr.Interface.load will fix it.

Hey @freddyaboulton, it works, thanks!
Adding that suggestion to the error message could be helpful :open_mouth:

gr.Interface.load(..., api_key='read_token')
