How to pre-download a model during Docker build?

[empz]

Is it possible to pre-download some models and embed them right into the Docker image so that when doing separator.load_model() a download doesn't need to happen and it will just load them from the file system?

Simply doing

RUN python3 -c "from audio_separator.separator import Separator; separator = Separator(); separator.download_model_files('model_mel_band_roformer_ep_3005_sdr_11.4360.ckpt')"

Awesome!

This is what I do myself, by the way!

# Download models in a single layer
RUN audio-separator --download_model_only -m UVR_MDXNET_KARA_2.onnx \
    && audio-separator --download_model_only -m MDX23C-8KFFT-InstVoc_HQ_2.ckpt \
    && audio-separator --download_model_only -m model_bs_roformer_ep_317_sdr_12.9755.yaml \
    && audio-separator --download_model_only -m UVR-MDX-NET-Inst_HQ_3.onnx \
    && audio-separator --download_model_only -m 2_HP-UVR.pth
