Error

raise gradio.Error("An error occurred 💥!", duration=5)

Description

This class allows you to pass custom error messages to the user. You can do so by raising a gr.Error("custom message") anywhere in the code, and when that line is executed the custom message will appear in a modal on the demo.

You can control for how long the error message is displayed with the `duration` parameter. If it’s `None`, the message will be displayed forever until the user closes it. If it’s a number, it will be shown for that many seconds.

You can also hide the error modal from being shown in the UI by setting `visible=False`.

Below is a demo of how different values of duration control the error, info, and warning messages. You can see the code here.

Example Usage

import gradio as gr
def divide(numerator, denominator):
    if denominator == 0:
        raise gr.Error("Cannot divide by zero!")
gr.Interface(divide, ["number", "number"], "number").launch()

Initialization

message: str

default = "Error raised."

The error message to be displayed to the user. Can be HTML, which will be rendered in the modal.

duration: float | None

default = 10

The duration in seconds to display the error message. If None or 0, the error message will be displayed until the user closes it.

visible: bool

default = True

Whether the error message should be displayed in the UI.

title: str

default = "Error"

The title to be displayed to the user at the top of the error modal.
