The huggingface_hub
library allows users to programmatically login and logout the machine to the Hub.

Parameters
str
, optional) —
User access token to generate from https://huggingface.co/settings/token. bool
, defaults to False
) —
If True
, token will be set as git credential. If no git credential helper
is configured, a warning will be displayed to the user. If token
is None
,
the value of add_to_git_credential
is ignored and will be prompted again
to the end user. bool
, defaults to True
) —
If True
, will request a token even if one is already saved on the machine. bool
, defaults to False
) —
If True
, requires a token with write permission. Raises
ValueError
or ImportError
ValueError
—
If an organization token is passed. Only personal account tokens are valid
to log in.ValueError
—
If token is invalid.ImportError
—
If running in a notebook but ipywidgets
is not installed.Login the machine to access the Hub.
The token
is persisted in cache and set as a git credential. Once done, the machine
is logged in and the access token will be available across all huggingface_hub
components. If token
is not provided, it will be prompted to the user either with
a widget (in a notebook) or via the terminal.
To log in from outside of a script, one can also use huggingface-cli login
which is
a cli command that wraps login().
login() is a drop-in replacement method for notebook_login() as it wraps and extends its capabilities.
When the token is not passed, login() will automatically detect if the script runs in a notebook or not. However, this detection might not be accurate due to the variety of notebooks that exists nowadays. If that is the case, you can always force the UI by using notebook_login() or interpreter_login().
( new_session: bool = True write_permission: bool = False )
Displays a prompt to log in to the HF website and store the token.
This is equivalent to login() without passing a token when not run in a notebook. interpreter_login() is useful if you want to force the use of the terminal prompt instead of a notebook widget.
For more details, see login().

Logout the machine from the Hub.
Token is deleted from the machine and removed from git credential.
