I am designing a Space that will allow people to submit image captions. The image captions will get stored in an external DB so I can then use them to train/finetune Stable Diffusion models using KoyhaSS.
I plan on building the application in gradio because it appears to have decent integration with Spaces.
The external DB will be something with a large free tier, like Firebase. DB secrets will be stored in a private dataset, as a workaround for HF not having secret management.
The main page of the space displays:
- Image from configured dataset
- Text box to enter caption
- Submit Button
Add Later:
- Button to load next image they have not captioned yet
- Progress Bar with %complete and, images captioned/total images in dataset
When the user clicks submit, a hash representing the user, image ref, and caption are stored in the database and then the application displays the next image in the dataset.
If the user has already submitted a caption for the image, it prefills the text box from the db.
I am more than happy to share it completely open source.
Can someone help me build the Gradio UI?
Thank you!
