Push to Hugging Face Spaces - Final Step
You're almost done! Your files are committed and ready to push. Follow these steps:
π Step 1: Authenticate with Hugging Face
Option A: Using HF Token (Recommended)
Get your token:
- Go to: https://huggingface.co/settings/tokens
- Create a new token if you don't have one
- Copy the token
Set it up in your terminal:
# Option 1: Set as environment variable (temporary)
export HF_TOKEN=your_actual_token_here
git push
# Option 2: Use git credential helper (persistent)
git config --global credential.helper store
# When prompted, enter:
# Username: your_huggingface_username
# Password: your_HF_TOKEN
git push
Option B: Using SSH (Alternative)
If you have SSH keys set up on HF:
git remote set-url origin git@huggingface.co:spaces/zunayed02/MediHelp.git
git push
π Step 2: Push to Your Space
Once authenticated:
cd /media/zunayed/HDD_code/chatbot\ with\ llm/MediHelp
git push
Expected output:
Counting objects: ...
Writing objects: ...
Total ... (delta ...)
remote: Scanning for {content}...
To https://huggingface.co/spaces/zunayed02/MediHelp
31515be..0917c28 main -> main
β³ Step 3: Wait for Build
After pushing:
- Go to your Space: https://huggingface.co/spaces/zunayed02/MediHelp
- Click "Build" tab to watch the build progress
- Build takes: 5-15 minutes
- Watch for:
- β Stage 1: Frontend build
- β Stage 2: Backend setup
- β Health check: Pass
βοΈ Step 4: Configure GROQ_API_KEY (CRITICAL!)
After build completes:
- Go to your Space: https://huggingface.co/spaces/zunayed02/MediHelp
- Click Settings (gear icon)
- Click Secrets
- Add new secret:
- Key:
GROQ_API_KEY - Value: Your actual Groq API key
- Key:
- Save
Without this, the app won't work!
β Step 5: Test Your Live App
Once build is complete and secrets are set:
- Reload the Space: F5 or refresh
- Test the app:
- β Frontend loads
- β Can enter health data
- β Gets diagnosis results
- β Shows Patient Data Report
