Checkbox

gradio.Checkbox(···)

Description

Creates a checkbox that can be set to `True` or `False`.

Behavior

As input: passes the status of the checkbox as a bool into the function.

As output: expects a bool returned from the function and, if it is True, checks the checkbox.

Initialization

Parameter	Description
`value` bool \| Callable default: False	if True, checked by default. If callable, the function will be called whenever the app loads to set the initial value of the component.
`label` str \| None default: None	component name in interface.
`info` str \| None default: None	additional component description.
`every` float \| None default: None	If `value` is a callable, run the function 'every' number of seconds while the client connection is open. Has no effect otherwise. Queue must be enabled. The event can be accessed (e.g. to cancel it) via this component's .load_event attribute.
`show_label` bool default: True	if True, will display label.
`container` bool default: True	If True, will place the component in a container - providing some extra padding around the border.
`scale` int \| None default: None	relative width compared to adjacent Components in a Row. For example, if Component A has scale=2, and Component B has scale=1, A will be twice as wide as B. Should be an integer.
`min_width` int default: 160	minimum pixel width, will wrap if not sufficient screen space to satisfy this value. If a certain scale value results in this Component being narrower than min_width, the min_width parameter will be respected first.
`interactive` bool \| None default: None	if True, this checkbox can be checked; if False, checking will be disabled. If not provided, this is inferred based on whether the component is used as an input or output.
`visible` bool default: True	If False, component will be hidden.
`elem_id` str \| None default: None	An optional string that is assigned as the id of this component in the HTML DOM. Can be used for targeting CSS styles.
`elem_classes` list[str] \| str \| None default: None	An optional list of strings that are assigned as the classes of this component in the HTML DOM. Can be used for targeting CSS styles.

Methods

change

gradio.Checkbox.change(fn, ···)

Description

This listener is triggered when the component's value changes either because of user input (e.g. a user types in a textbox) OR because of a function update (e.g. an image receives a value from the output of an event trigger). See `.input()` for a listener that is only triggered by user input. This method can be used when this component is in a Gradio Blocks.

Agruments

Parameter	Description
`fn` Callable \| None required	the function to wrap an interface around. Often a machine learning model's prediction function. Each parameter of the function corresponds to one input component, and the function should return a single value or a tuple of values, with each element in the tuple corresponding to one output component.
`inputs` Component \| list[Component] \| set[Component] \| None default: None	List of gradio.components to use as inputs. If the function takes no inputs, this should be an empty list.
`outputs` Component \| list[Component] \| None default: None	List of gradio.components to use as outputs. If the function returns no outputs, this should be an empty list.
`api_name` str \| None \| Literal[False] default: None	Defines how the endpoint appears in the API docs. Can be a string, None, or False. If False, the endpoint will not be exposed in the api docs. If set to None, the endpoint will be exposed in the api docs as an unnamed endpoint, although this behavior will be changed in Gradio 4.0. If set to a string, the endpoint will be exposed in the api docs with the given name.
`status_tracker` None default: None
`scroll_to_output` bool default: False	If True, will scroll to output component on completion
`show_progress` Literal['full', 'minimal', 'hidden'] default: "full"	If True, will show progress animation while pending
`queue` bool \| None default: None	If True, will place the request on the queue, if the queue has been enabled. If False, will not put this event on the queue, even if the queue has been enabled. If None, will use the queue setting of the gradio app.
`batch` bool default: False	If True, then the function should process a batch of inputs, meaning that it should accept a list of input values for each parameter. The lists should be of equal length (and be up to length `max_batch_size`). The function is then required to return a tuple of lists (even if there is only 1 output component), with each list in the tuple corresponding to one output component.
`max_batch_size` int default: 4	Maximum number of inputs to batch together if this is called from the queue (only relevant if batch=True)
`preprocess` bool default: True	If False, will not run preprocessing of component data before running 'fn' (e.g. leaving it as a base64 string if this method is called with the `Image` component).
`postprocess` bool default: True	If False, will not run postprocessing of component data before returning 'fn' output to the browser.
`cancels` dict[str, Any] \| list[dict[str, Any]] \| None default: None	A list of other events to cancel when This listener is triggered. For example, setting cancels=[click_event] will cancel the click_event, where click_event is the return value of another components .click method. Functions that have not yet run (or generators that are iterating) will be cancelled, but functions that are currently running will be allowed to finish.
`every` float \| None default: None	Run this event 'every' number of seconds while the client connection is open. Interpreted in seconds. Queue must be enabled.

select

gradio.Checkbox.select(fn, ···)

Description

Event listener for when the user selects or deselects Checkbox. Uses event data gradio.SelectData to carry `value` referring to label of checkbox, and `selected` to refer to state of checkbox. See EventData documentation on how to use this event data.
