Features

- [5284](https://github.com/gradio-app/gradio/pull/5284) [`5f25eb68`](https://github.com/gradio-app/gradio/commit/5f25eb6836f6a78ce6208b53495a01e1fc1a1d2f) - Minor bug fix sweep. Thanks [aliabid94](https://github.com/aliabid94)!/n - Our use of __exit__ was catching errors and corrupting the traceback of any component that failed to instantiate (try running blocks_kitchen_sink off main for an example). Now the __exit__ exits immediately if there's been an exception, so the original exception can be printed cleanly/n - HighlightedText was rendering weird, cleaned it up

Highlights

Improve startup performance and markdown support ([5279](https://github.com/gradio-app/gradio/pull/5279) [`fe057300`](https://github.com/gradio-app/gradio/commit/fe057300f0672c62dab9d9b4501054ac5d45a4ec))

Improved markdown support

We now have better support for markdown in `gr.Markdown` and `gr.Dataframe`. Including syntax highlighting and Github Flavoured Markdown. We also have more consistent markdown behaviour and styling.

Various performance improvements

These improvements will be particularly beneficial to large applications.

- Rather than attaching events manually, they are now delegated, leading to a significant performance improvement and addressing a performance regression introduced in a recent version of Gradio. App startup for large applications is now around twice as fast.
- Optimised the mounting of individual components, leading to a modest performance improvement during startup (~30%).
- Corrected an issue that was causing markdown to re-render infinitely.
- Ensured that the `gr.3DModel` does re-render prematurely.

Thanks [pngwn](https://github.com/pngwn)!

Enable streaming audio in python client ([5248](https://github.com/gradio-app/gradio/pull/5248) [`390624d8`](https://github.com/gradio-app/gradio/commit/390624d8ad2b1308a5bf8384435fd0db98d8e29e))

The `gradio_client` now supports streaming file outputs 🌊

No new syntax! Connect to a gradio demo that supports streaming file outputs and call `predict` or `submit` as you normally would.

python
import gradio_client as grc
client = grc.Client("gradio/stream_audio_out")

Get the entire generated audio as a local file
client.predict("/Users/freddy/Pictures/bark_demo.mp4", api_name="/predict")

job = client.submit("/Users/freddy/Pictures/bark_demo.mp4", api_name="/predict")

Get the entire generated audio as a local file
job.result()

Each individual chunk
job.outputs()

Add `render` function to `<gradio-app>` ([5158](https://github.com/gradio-app/gradio/pull/5158) [`804fcc05`](https://github.com/gradio-app/gradio/commit/804fcc058e147f283ece67f1f353874e26235535))

We now have an event `render` on the <gradio-app> web component, which is triggered once the embedded space has finished rendering.

html
<script>
function handleLoadComplete() {
console.log("Embedded space has finished rendering");
}
const gradioApp = document.querySelector("gradio-app");
gradioApp.addEventListener("render", handleLoadComplete);
</script>

Highlights

Client.predict will now return the final output for streaming endpoints ([5057](https://github.com/gradio-app/gradio/pull/5057) [`35856f8b`](https://github.com/gradio-app/gradio/commit/35856f8b54548cae7bd3b8d6a4de69e1748283b2))

This is a breaking change (for gradio_client only)!

Previously, `Client.predict` would only return the first output of an endpoint that streamed results. This was causing confusion for developers that wanted to call these streaming demos via the client.

We realize that developers using the client don't know the internals of whether a demo streams or not, so we're changing the behavior of predict to match developer expectations.

Using `Client.predict` will now return the final output of a streaming endpoint. This will make it even easier to use gradio apps via the client.

Thanks [freddyaboulton](https://github.com/freddyaboulton)!

Gradio now supports streaming audio outputs

Allows users to use generators to stream audio out, yielding consecutive chunks of audio. Requires `streaming=True` to be set on the output audio.

python
import gradio as gr
from pydub import AudioSegment

def stream_audio(audio_file):
audio = AudioSegment.from_mp3(audio_file)
i = 0
chunk_size = 3000

while chunk_size*i < len(audio):
chunk = audio[chunk_size*i:chunk_size*(i+1)]
i += 1
if chunk:
file = f"/tmp/{i}.mp3"
chunk.export(file, format="mp3")
yield file

demo = gr.Interface(
fn=stream_audio,
inputs=gr.Audio(type="filepath", label="Audio file to stream"),
outputs=gr.Audio(autoplay=True, streaming=True),
)

demo.queue().launch()


From the backend, streamed outputs are served from the `/stream/` endpoint instead of the `/file/` endpoint. Currently just used to serve audio streaming output. The output JSON will have `is_stream`: `true`, instead of `is_file`: `true` in the file data object. Thanks [aliabid94](https://github.com/aliabid94)!

Highlights

Create Discord Bots from Gradio Apps 🤖 ([4960](https://github.com/gradio-app/gradio/pull/4960) [`46e4ef67`](https://github.com/gradio-app/gradio/commit/46e4ef67d287dd68a91473b73172b29cbad064bc))

We're excited to announce that Gradio can now automatically create a discord bot from any `gr.ChatInterface` app.

It's as easy as importing `gradio_client`, connecting to the app, and calling `deploy_discord`!

_🦙 Turning Llama 2 70b into a discord bot 🦙_

python
import gradio_client as grc
grc.Client("ysharma/Explore_llamav2_with_TGI").deploy_discord(to_id="llama2-70b-discord-bot")

Getting started with template spaces

To help get you started, we have created an organization on Hugging Face called [gradio-discord-bots](https://huggingface.co/gradio-discord-bots) with template spaces you can use to turn state of the art LLMs powered by Gradio to discord bots.

Currently we have template spaces for:

- [Llama-2-70b-chat-hf](https://huggingface.co/spaces/gradio-discord-bots/Llama-2-70b-chat-hf) powered by a FREE Hugging Face Inference Endpoint!
- [Llama-2-13b-chat-hf](https://huggingface.co/spaces/gradio-discord-bots/Llama-2-13b-chat-hf) powered by Hugging Face Inference Endpoints.
- [Llama-2-13b-chat-hf](https://huggingface.co/spaces/gradio-discord-bots/llama-2-13b-chat-transformers) powered by Hugging Face transformers.
- [falcon-7b-instruct](https://huggingface.co/spaces/gradio-discord-bots/falcon-7b-instruct) powered by Hugging Face Inference Endpoints.
- [gpt-3.5-turbo](https://huggingface.co/spaces/gradio-discord-bots/gpt-35-turbo), powered by openai. Requires an OpenAI key.

But once again, you can deploy ANY `gr.ChatInterface` app exposed on the internet! So don't hesitate to try it on your own Chatbots.

❗️ Additional Note ❗️: Technically, any gradio app that exposes an api route that takes in a single string and outputs a single string can be deployed to discord. But `gr.ChatInterface` apps naturally lend themselves to discord's chat functionality so we suggest you start with those.

Thanks [freddyaboulton](https://github.com/freddyaboulton)!
