### Hugging Face Spaces
This app is optimized for deployment on Hugging Face Spaces using Docker SDK.
**V2-Only Deployment on HF Spaces:**
- Uses `t5-small` model (~250MB) for fast startup
- No Ollama dependency (saves memory and disk space)
- Model downloads during warmup for instant first request
- Optimized for free tier resource limits
**Environment Variables for HF Spaces:**
For memory-constrained deployments (free tier):
```bash
ENABLE_V1_WARMUP=false
ENABLE_V2_WARMUP=false
ENABLE_V3_SCRAPING=true
ENABLE_V4_STRUCTURED=false
HF_MODEL_ID=sshleifer/distilbart-cnn-6-6
HF_HOME=/tmp/huggingface
```
For GPU-enabled deployments (paid tier with 16GB+ RAM):
```bash
ENABLE_V1_WARMUP=false
ENABLE_V2_WARMUP=false
ENABLE_V3_SCRAPING=true
ENABLE_V4_STRUCTURED=true
ENABLE_V4_WARMUP=false
V4_MODEL_ID=Qwen/Qwen2.5-3B-Instruct
V4_ENABLE_QUANTIZATION=true
V4_USE_FP16_FOR_SPEED=true
```

## πŸ“ Usage Examples
### V1 API (Ollama)
```python
import requests
import json
# V1 streaming summarization
response = requests.post(
"https://colin730-SummarizerApp.hf.space/api/v1/summarize/stream",
json={
"text": "Your long article or text here...",
"max_tokens": 256
},
stream=True
)
for line in response.iter_lines():
if line.startswith(b'data: '):
data = json.loads(line[6:])
print(data["content"], end="")
if data["done"]:
break
```
### V2 API (HuggingFace Streaming) - Recommended
```python
import requests
import json
# V2 streaming summarization (same request format as V1)
response = requests.post(
"https://colin730-SummarizerApp.hf.space/api/v2/summarize/stream",
json={
"text": "Your long article or text here...",
"max_tokens": 128 # V2 uses max_new_tokens
},
stream=True
)
for line in response.iter_lines():
if line.startswith(b'data: '):
data = json.loads(line[6:])
print(data["content"], end="")
if data["done"]:
break
```
### V3 API (Web Scraping + Summarization) - Android App Primary Use Case
**V3 supports two modes: URL scraping or direct text summarization**
#### Mode 1: URL Scraping (recommended for articles)
```python
import requests
import json
# V3 scrape article from URL and stream summarization
response = requests.post(
"https://colin730-SummarizerApp.hf.space/api/v3/scrape-and-summarize/stream",
json={
"url": "https://example.com/article",
"max_tokens": 256,
"include_metadata": True, # Get article title, author, etc.
"use_cache": True # Use cached content if available
},
stream=True
)
for line in response.iter_lines():
if line.startswith(b'data: '):
data = json.loads(line[6:])
# First event: metadata
if data.get("type") == "metadata":
print(f"Input type: {data['data']['input_type']}") # 'url'
print(f"Title: {data['data']['title']}")
print(f"Author: {data['data']['author']}")
print(f"Scrape time: {data['data']['scrape_latency_ms']}ms\n")
# Content events
elif "content" in data:
print(data["content"], end="")
if data["done"]:
print(f"\n\nTotal time: {data['latency_ms']}ms")
break
```
#### Mode 2: Direct Text Summarization (fallback when scraping fails)
```python
import requests
import json
# V3 direct text summarization (no scraping)
response = requests.post(
"https://colin730-SummarizerApp.hf.space/api/v3/scrape-and-summarize/stream",
json={
"text": "Your article text here... (minimum 50 characters)",
"max_tokens": 256,
"include_metadata": True
},
stream=True
)
for line in response.iter_lines():
if line.startswith(b'data: '):
data = json.loads(line[6:])
# First event: metadata
if data.get("type") == "metadata":
print(f"Input type: {data['data']['input_type']}") # 'text'
print(f"Text length: {data['data']['text_length']} chars\n")
# Content events
elif "content" in data:
print(data["content"], end="")
if data["done"]:
break
```
**Note:** Provide either `url` OR `text`, not both. Text mode is useful as a fallback when:
- Article is behind a paywall
- Website blocks scrapers
- User has already extracted the text manually
### V4 API (Structured Output with Qwen) - High-Quality Summaries
**V4 supports two streaming formats and three summarization styles**
#### Streaming Format 1: Standard JSON Streaming (stream)
```python
import requests
import json
# V4 scrape article from URL and stream structured JSON
response = requests.post(
"https://colin730-SummarizerApp.hf.space/api/v4/scrape-and-summarize/stream",
json={
"url": "https://example.com/article",
"style": "executive", # Options: "executive", "skimmer", "eli5"
"max_tokens": 256,
"include_metadata": True,
"use_cache": True
},
stream=True
)
for line in response.iter_lines():
if line.startswith(b'data: '):
data = json.loads(line[6:])
# First event: metadata
if data.get("type") == "metadata":
print(f"Style: {data['data']['style']}")
print(f"Scrape time: {data['data']['scrape_latency_ms']}ms\n")
# Content events (streaming JSON tokens)
elif "content" in data:
print(data["content"], end="")
if data["done"]:
# Parse final JSON
summary = json.loads(accumulated_content)
print(f"\n\nTitle: {summary['title']}")
print(f"Category: {summary['category']}")
print(f"Sentiment: {summary['sentiment']}")
print(f"Key Points: {summary['key_points']}")
break
```
#### Streaming Format 2: NDJSON Patch Streaming (stream-ndjson) - 43% Faster
```python
import requests
import json
# V4 NDJSON streaming - progressive JSON updates for real-time UI
response = requests.post(
"https://colin730-SummarizerApp.hf.space/api/v4/scrape-and-summarize/stream-ndjson",
json={
"text": "Your article text here (minimum 50 characters)...",
"style": "skimmer", # Brief, fact-focused summary
"max_tokens": 512,
"include_metadata": True
},
stream=True
)
summary = {}
for line in response.iter_lines():
if line.startswith(b'data: '):
event = json.loads(line[6:])
# First event: metadata
if event.get("type") == "metadata":
print(f"Input: {event['data']['input_type']}")
print(f"Style: {event['data']['style']}\n")
# NDJSON patch events
elif "delta" in event:
delta = event["delta"]
state = event["state"]
if delta and delta.get("op") == "set":
# Field set operation
field = delta["field"]
value = delta["value"]
summary[field] = value
print(f"{field}: {value}")
elif delta and delta.get("op") == "append":
# Array append operation
field = delta["field"]
value = delta["value"]
if field not in summary:
summary[field] = []
summary[field].append(value)
print(f"+ {field}: {value}")
elif delta and delta.get("op") == "done":
# Final state
print(f"\nβœ… Complete! Total time: {event.get('latency_ms', 0):.0f}ms")
print(f"Tokens used: {event.get('tokens_used', 0)}")
break
```
#### Summarization Styles
**Executive Style** (`"executive"`):
- Target audience: Business professionals, decision makers
- Format: Concise, action-oriented, business impact focus
- Example output: Strategic insights, financial implications, market trends
**Skimmer Style** (`"skimmer"`):
- Target audience: Busy readers wanting quick facts
- Format: Bullet-point style, scannable, fact-dense
- Example output: Core facts, numbers, dates, names
**ELI5 Style** (`"eli5"`):
- Target audience: General public, non-technical readers
- Format: Simple explanations, analogies, relatable examples
- Example output: What it means, why it matters, real-world impact
#### V4 Output Schema
All V4 responses return structured JSON with these 6 fields:
```json
{
"title": "Click-worthy title (<100 chars)",
"main_summary": "2-4 sentence summary (<500 chars)",
"key_points": [
"Key point 1",
"Key point 2",
"Key point 3"
],
"category": "Technology",
"sentiment": "Positive",
"read_time_min": 5
}
```

```
### Test Script
```bash
# Use the included test script
./scripts/test_endpoints.sh https://colin730-SummarizerApp.hf.space
```
## πŸ”’ Security
- Non-root user execution
- Input validation and sanitization
- **SSRF protection**: V3 and V4 APIs block localhost and private IP ranges
- **Rate limiting**: Configurable per-IP rate limits for scraping endpoints
- **URL validation**: Strict URL format checking (HTTP/HTTPS only)
- **Content limits**: Maximum text lengths enforced (50,000 chars for V3/V4)
- API key authentication (optional)
## πŸ“ˆ Monitoring
The service includes:
- Health check endpoint
- Request logging
- Error tracking
- Performance metrics
## πŸ†˜ Troubleshooting
### Common Issues
1. **Model not loading**: Check if Ollama is running and model is pulled (V1 only)
2. **Out of memory**:
- V1: Ensure 2-4GB RAM available
- V2/V3: Ensure ~500-550MB RAM available
- V4 (1.5B): Ensure 2-3GB RAM available
- V4 (3B): Ensure 6-7GB RAM available
3. **Slow startup**: Normal on first run due to model download
4. **V4 slow inference**: Enable GPU acceleration (CUDA or MPS) and FP16 for 2-4x speedup
5. **V4 quantization slow**: Quantization takes 1-2 minutes on startup; disable warmup to defer until first request
6. **API errors**: Check logs via `/docs` endpoint
