# Flask REST API
|
|
|
|
[REST](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representational_state_transfer) [API](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/API)s are commonly used to expose Machine Learning (ML) models to other services. This folder contains an example REST API created using Flask to expose the YOLOv5s model from [PyTorch Hub](https://pytorch.org/hub/ultralytics_yolov5/).
|
|
|
|
## Requirements
|
|
|
|
[Flask](https://palletsprojects.com/projects/flask/) is required. Install with:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
$ pip install Flask
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Run
|
|
|
|
After Flask installation run:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
$ python3 restapi.py --port 5000
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then use [curl](https://curl.se/) to perform a request:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
$ curl -X POST -F image=@zidane.jpg 'http://localhost:5000/v1/object-detection/yolov5s'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The model inference results are returned as a JSON response:
|
|
|
|
```json
