Contributing to Gradio

You can start by forking or cloning the repo (https://github.com/gradio-app/gradio.git) and creating your own branch to work from.

Next, to install the local development version of Gradio:

  • Navigate to the /gradio subfolder and run pip install -e ..

When installing locally, you may also need to build the front end:

  • Navigate to the /frontend subfolder and run npm install.
  • Then run npm run build.

Structure of the Repository

It's helpful to know the overall structure of the repository so that you can focus on the part of the source code you'd like to contribute to

  • /gradio: contains the source code for the actual Python library

    • /gradio/interface.py: contains the source code for the core Interface class
  • /test: contains unit tests for the Python library

  • /website: contains the code for the Gradio website (www.gradio.app). See the README in the /website folder for more details

Continuous Integration and Testing

All PRs must pass the continuous integration tests before merging. To test locally, you can run python -m unittest from the /gradio subfolder.

Submitting PRs

All PRs should be against master. Direct commits to master are blocked, and PRs require an approving review to merge into master. By convention, the Gradio maintainers will review PRs when:

  • An initial review has been requested, and
  • A maintainer (@abidlabs, @aliabid94, @aliabd, @AK391, or @dawoodkhan82) is tagged in the PR comments and asked to complete a review

We ask that you make sure initial CI checks are passing before requesting a review. One of the Gradio maintainers will merge the PR when all the checks are passing.
