Javascript client does not support self-hosting endpoint ( not hugging-face space)

[nne998]

The current version of the Javascript client does not support self-hosting endpoints, unlike the Python client that supports it. Therefore, please update the Javascript client. Thank you.

Reproduction

app.py

import gradio as gr

def predict(text):
  return 'hello ' + text

gr.Interface(fn=predict, inputs="text", outputs="text").launch()

package.json

{
  "name": "gradio_test",
  "type": "module",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "main": "client.js",
  "dependencies": {
    "@gradio/client": "^0.1.2"
  }
}

client.js

import { client } from "@gradio/client";

async function run() {
  const app = await client("https://localhost:7860/", {
    status_callback: (res) => {
      console.log(res);
    },
  });

  const result = await app.predict("/predict", [
    "Howdy!", // string  in 'text' Textbox component
  ]);

  console.log(result?.data);
}

run();

run app

python ./app.py

run client

node ./client.js

outputs

{
  status: 'error',
  message: 'Could not load this space.',
  load_status: 'error',
  detail: 'NOT_FOUND'
}

dependencies

• pip package: gradio==3.35.2
• npm package: @gradio/[email protected]

I thought it did. Will check this and see what the issue is.

And, if there is an error, the “const app = await client(...)” promise function will wait indefinitely and not return. I think it should throw an exception.

This might be a dumb thing to say, but maybe the issue is with the 's' in 'https'? Instead of "https://localhost:7860/", should it not be "http://localhost:7860/" ?

@manu-sapiens Not a dumb thing to say at all. It is an excellent question.

I've just tested this and it looks like this is working on my end. My app was hosted on http://127.0.0.1:7860 so maybe the protocol was the problem here. @nne998 let me know if this issue persists for you!
