OpenGradient Python SDK
A Python SDK for decentralized model management and inference services on the OpenGradient platform. The SDK enables programmatic access to our model repository and decentralized AI infrastructure.
Key Features
- Model management and versioning
- Decentralized model inference
- Support for LLM inference with various models
- End-to-end verified AI execution
- Command-line interface (CLI) for direct access
Model Hub
Browse and discover AI models on our Model Hub. The Hub provides:
- Registry of models and LLMs
- Easy model discovery and deployment
- Direct integration with the SDK
Installation
pip install opengradient
Note: Windows users should temporarily enable WSL when installing opengradient
(fix in progress).
Getting Started
1. Account Setup
You'll need two accounts to use the SDK:
- Model Hub account: Create one at Hub Sign Up
- OpenGradient account: Use an existing Ethereum-compatible wallet or create a new one via SDK
The easiest way to set up your accounts is through our configuration wizard:
opengradient config init
This wizard will:
- Guide you through account creation
- Help you set up credentials
- Direct you to our Test Faucet for devnet tokens
2. Initialize the SDK
import opengradient as og
og.init(private_key="<private_key>", email="<email>", password="<password>")
3. Basic Usage
Browse available models on our Model Hub or create and upload your own:
og.create_model(
model_name="my-model",
model_desc="Model description",
model_path="/path/to/model"
)
inference_mode = og.InferenceMode.VANILLA
result = og.infer(
model_cid="your-model-cid",
model_inputs={"input": "value"},
inference_mode=inference_mode
)
4. Examples
See code examples under examples.
CLI Usage
The SDK includes a command-line interface for quick operations. First, verify your configuration:
opengradient config show
Run a test inference:
opengradient infer -m QmbUqS93oc4JTLMHwpVxsE39mhNxy6hpf6Py3r9oANr8aZ \
--input '{"num_input1":[1.0, 2.0, 3.0], "num_input2":10}'
Use Cases
-
Off-chain Applications: Use OpenGradient as a decentralized alternative to centralized AI providers like HuggingFace and OpenAI.
-
Model Development: Manage models on the Model Hub and integrate directly into your development workflow.
