# Fork of [salesforce/BLIP](https://github.com/salesforce/BLIP) for a `feature-extraction` task on 🤗Inference endpoint.
This repository implements a `custom` task for `feature-extraction` for 🤗 Inference Endpoints. The code for the customized pipeline is in the [pipeline.py](https://huggingface.co/florentgbelidji/blip-embeddings/blob/main/pipeline.py).
To use deploy this model a an Inference Endpoint you have to select `Custom` as task to use the `pipeline.py` file. -> _double check if it is selected_
### expected Request payload
```json
{
"image": "/9j/4AAQSkZJRgABAQEBLAEsAAD/2wBDAAMCAgICAgMC....", // base64 image as bytes
}
```
below is an example on how to run a request using Python and `requests`.
## Run Request
1. prepare an image.
```bash
!wget https://huggingface.co/datasets/mishig/sample_images/resolve/main/palace.jpg
```
2.run request
```python
import json
from typing import List
import requests as r
import base64
ENDPOINT_URL = ""
HF_TOKEN = ""
def predict(path_to_image: str = None):
with open(path_to_image, "rb") as i:
b64 = base64.b64encode(i.read())
payload = {"inputs": {"image": b64.decode("utf-8")}}
response = r.post(
ENDPOINT_URL, headers={"Authorization": f"Bearer {HF_TOKEN}"}, json=payload
)
return response.json()
prediction = predict(
path_to_image="palace.jpg"
)
```
expected output
```python
{'feature_vector': [0.016450975090265274,
-0.5551009774208069,
0.39800673723220825,
