**LocalAI** is a straightforward, drop-in replacement API compatible with OpenAI for local CPU inferencing, based on [llama.cpp](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp), [gpt4all](https://github.com/nomic-ai/gpt4all) and [ggml](https://github.com/ggerganov/ggml), including support GPT4ALL-J which is licensed under Apache 2.0.
|
|
|
|
- OpenAI compatible API
|
|
- Supports multiple-models
|
|
- Once loaded the first time, it keep models loaded in memory for faster inference
|
|
- Support for prompt templates
|
|
- Doesn't shell-out, but uses C bindings for a faster inference and better performance. Uses [go-llama.cpp](https://github.com/go-skynet/go-llama.cpp) and [go-gpt4all-j.cpp](https://github.com/go-skynet/go-gpt4all-j.cpp).
|
|
|
|
LocalAI is a community-driven project, focused on making the AI accessible to anyone. Any contribution, feedback and PR is welcome! It was initially created by [mudler](https://github.com/mudler/) at the [SpectroCloud OSS Office](https://github.com/spectrocloud).

|
|
|
|
## Model compatibility
|
|
|
|
It is compatible with the models supported by [llama.cpp](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp) supports also [GPT4ALL-J](https://github.com/nomic-ai/gpt4all) and [cerebras-GPT with ggml](https://huggingface.co/lxe/Cerebras-GPT-2.7B-Alpaca-SP-ggml).
|
|
|
|
Tested with:
|
|
- Vicuna
|
|
- Alpaca
|
|
- [GPT4ALL](https://github.com/nomic-ai/gpt4all)
|
|
- [GPT4ALL-J](https://gpt4all.io/models/ggml-gpt4all-j.bin)
|
|
- Koala
|
|
- [cerebras-GPT with ggml](https://huggingface.co/lxe/Cerebras-GPT-2.7B-Alpaca-SP-ggml)
|
|
|
|
It should also be compatible with StableLM and GPTNeoX ggml models (untested)
|
|
|
|
Note: You might need to convert older models to the new format, see [here](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp#using-gpt4all) for instance to run `gpt4all`.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
> `LocalAI` comes by default as a container image. You can check out all the available images with corresponding tags [here](https://quay.io/repository/go-skynet/local-ai?tab=tags&tag=latest).
|
|
|
|
The easiest way to run LocalAI is by using `docker-compose`:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
|
|
git clone https://github.com/go-skynet/LocalAI
|
|
|
|
cd LocalAI
|
|
|
|
# (optional) Checkout a specific LocalAI tag
|
|
# git checkout -b build <TAG>
|
|
|
|
# copy your models to models/
|
|
cp your-model.bin models/
|
|
|
|
# (optional) Edit the .env file to set things like context size and threads
|
|
# vim .env
|
|
|
|
# start with docker-compose
|
|
docker-compose up -d --build
|
|
|
|
# Now API is accessible at localhost:8080
|
|
curl http://localhost:8080/v1/models
|
|
# {"object":"list","data":[{"id":"your-model.bin","object":"model"}]}
|
|
|
|
curl http://localhost:8080/v1/completions -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{
|
|
"model": "your-model.bin",
|
|
"prompt": "A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away",
|
|
"temperature": 0.7
|
|
}'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Example: Use GPT4ALL-J model
|
|
|
|
<details>
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Clone LocalAI
|
|
git clone https://github.com/go-skynet/LocalAI
|
|
|
|
cd LocalAI
|
|
|
|
# (optional) Checkout a specific LocalAI tag
|
|
# git checkout -b build <TAG>
|
|
|
|
# Download gpt4all-j to models/
|
|
wget https://gpt4all.io/models/ggml-gpt4all-j.bin -O models/ggml-gpt4all-j
|
|
|
|
# Use a template from the examples
|
|
cp -rf prompt-templates/ggml-gpt4all-j.tmpl models/
|
|
|
|
# (optional) Edit the .env file to set things like context size and threads
|
|
# vim .env
|
|
|
|
# start with docker-compose
|
|
docker-compose up -d --build
|
|
|
|
# Now API is accessible at localhost:8080
|
|
curl http://localhost:8080/v1/models
|
|
# {"object":"list","data":[{"id":"ggml-gpt4all-j","object":"model"}]}
|
|
|
|
curl http://localhost:8080/v1/chat/completions -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{
|
|
"model": "ggml-gpt4all-j",
|
|
"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "How are you?"}],
|
|
"temperature": 0.9
|
|
}'
|
|
|
|
# {"model":"ggml-gpt4all-j","choices":[{"message":{"role":"assistant","content":"I'm doing well, thanks. How about you?"}}]}
|
|
```
|
|
</details>
|
|
|
|
To build locally, run `make build` (see below).
|
|
|
|
## Other examples
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To see other examples on how to integrate with other projects for instance chatbot-ui, see: [examples](https://github.com/go-skynet/LocalAI/tree/master/examples/).
|
|
|
|
## Prompt templates
|
|
|
|
The API doesn't inject a default prompt for talking to the model. You have to use a prompt similar to what's described in the standford-alpaca docs: https://github.com/tatsu-lab/stanford_alpaca#data-release.
|
|
|
|
<details>
|
|
You can use a default template for every model present in your model path, by creating a corresponding file with the `.tmpl` suffix next to your model. For instance, if the model is called `foo.bin`, you can create a sibling file, `foo.bin.tmpl` which will be used as a default prompt and can be used with alpaca:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
The below instruction describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request.
|
|
|
|
### Instruction:
|
|
{{.Input}}
|
|
|
|
### Response:
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
See the [prompt-templates](https://github.com/go-skynet/LocalAI/tree/master/prompt-templates) directory in this repository for templates for some of the most popular models.
|
|
|
|
</details>
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
Currently LocalAI comes as container images and can be used with docker or a containre engine of choice.
|
|
|
|
### Run LocalAI in Kubernetes
|
|
|
|
LocalAI can be installed inside Kubernetes with helm.
|
|
<details>
|
|
|
|
1. Add the helm repo
|
|
```bash
|
|
helm repo add go-skynet https://go-skynet.github.io/helm-charts/
|
|
```
|
|
1. Create a values files with your settings:
|
|
```bash
|
|
cat <<EOF > values.yaml
|
|
deployment:
|
|
image: quay.io/go-skynet/local-ai:latest
|
|
env:
|
|
threads: 4
|
|
contextSize: 1024
|
|
modelsPath: "/models"
|
|
# Optionally create a PVC, mount the PV to the LocalAI Deployment,
|
|
# and download a model to prepopulate the models directory
|
|
modelsVolume:
|
|
enabled: true
|
|
url: "https://gpt4all.io/models/ggml-gpt4all-j.bin"
|
|
pvc:
|
|
size: 6Gi
|
|
accessModes:
|
|
- ReadWriteOnce
|
|
auth:
|
|
# Optional value for HTTP basic access authentication header
|
|
basic: "" # 'username:password' base64 encoded
|
|
service:
|
|
type: ClusterIP
|
|
annotations: {}
|
|
# If using an AWS load balancer, you'll need to override the default 60s load balancer idle timeout
|
|
# service.beta.kubernetes.io/aws-load-balancer-connection-idle-timeout: "1200"
|
|
EOF
|
|
```
|
|
3. Install the helm chart:
|
|
```bash
|
|
helm repo update
|
|
helm install local-ai go-skynet/local-ai -f values.yaml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Check out also the [helm chart repository on GitHub](https://github.com/go-skynet/helm-charts).
|
|
|
|
</details>
|
|
|
|
## API
|
|
|
|
`LocalAI` provides an API for running text generation as a service, that follows the OpenAI reference and can be used as a drop-in. The models once loaded the first time will be kept in memory.
|
|
|
|
<details>
|
|
Example of starting the API with `docker`:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker run -p 8080:8080 -ti --rm quay.io/go-skynet/local-ai:latest --models-path /path/to/models --context-size 700 --threads 4
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You should see:
|
|
```
|
|
┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
|
|
│ Fiber v2.42.0 │
|
|
│ http://127.0.0.1:8080 │
|
|
│ (bound on host 0.0.0.0 and port 8080) │
|
|
│ │
|
|
│ Handlers ............. 1 Processes ........... 1 │
|
|
│ Prefork ....... Disabled PID ................. 1 │
|
|
└───────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can control the API server options with command line arguments:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
local-api --models-path <model_path> [--address <address>] [--threads <num_threads>]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The API takes takes the following parameters:
|
|
|
|
| Parameter | Environment Variable | Default Value | Description |
|
|
| ------------ | -------------------- | ------------- | -------------------------------------- |
|
|
| models-path | MODELS_PATH | | The path where you have models (ending with `.bin`). |
|
|
| threads | THREADS | Number of Physical cores | The number of threads to use for text generation. |
|
|
| address | ADDRESS | :8080 | The address and port to listen on. |
|
|
| context-size | CONTEXT_SIZE | 512 | Default token context size. |
|
|
| debug | DEBUG | false | Enable debug mode. |
|
|
| config-file | CONFIG_FILE | empty | Path to a LocalAI config file. |
|
|
|
|
Once the server is running, you can start making requests to it using HTTP, using the OpenAI API.
|
|
|
|
</details>
|
|
|
|
### Supported OpenAI API endpoints
|
|
|
|
You can check out the [OpenAI API reference](https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference/chat/create).
|
|
|
|
Following the list of endpoints/parameters supported.
|
|
|
|
Note:
|
|
|
|
- You can also specify the model as part of the OpenAI token.
|
|
- If only one model is available, the API will use it for all the requests.
|
|
|
|
#### Chat completions
|
|
|
|
<details>
|
|
For example, to generate a chat completion, you can send a POST request to the `/v1/chat/completions` endpoint with the instruction as the request body:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
curl http://localhost:8080/v1/chat/completions -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{
|
|
"model": "ggml-koala-7b-model-q4_0-r2.bin",
|
|
"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Say this is a test!"}],
|
|
"temperature": 0.7
|
|
}'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Available additional parameters: `top_p`, `top_k`, `max_tokens`
|
|
</details>
|
|
|
|
#### Completions
|
|
|
|
<details>
|
|
|
|
To generate a completion, you can send a POST request to the `/v1/completions` endpoint with the instruction as per the request body:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
curl http://localhost:8080/v1/completions -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{
|
|
"model": "ggml-koala-7b-model-q4_0-r2.bin",
|
|
"prompt": "A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away",
|
|
"temperature": 0.7
|
|
}'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Available additional parameters: `top_p`, `top_k`, `max_tokens`
|
|
|
|
</details>
|
|
|
|
#### List models
|
|
|
|
<details>
|
|
You can list all the models available with:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
curl http://localhost:8080/v1/models
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
</details>
|
|
|
|
## Advanced configuration
|
|
|
|
LocalAI can be configured to serve user-defined models with a set of default parameters and templates.
|
|
|
|
<details>
|
|
You can create multiple `yaml` files in the models path or either specify a single YAML configuration file.
|
|
|
|
For instance, a configuration file (`gpt-3.5-turbo.yaml`) can be declaring the "gpt-3.5-turbo" model but backed by the "testmodel" model file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
name: gpt-3.5-turbo
|
|
parameters:
|
|
model: testmodel
|
|
context_size: 512
|
|
threads: 10
|
|
stopwords:
|
|
- "HUMAN:"
|
|
- "### Response:"
|
|
roles:
|
|
user: "HUMAN:"
|
|
system: "GPT:"
|
|
template:
|
|
completion: completion
|
|
chat: ggml-gpt4all-j
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Specifying a `config-file` via CLI allows to declare models in a single file as a list, for instance:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
- name: list1
|
|
parameters:
|
|
model: testmodel
|
|
context_size: 512
|
|
threads: 10
|
|
stopwords:
|
|
- "HUMAN:"
|
|
- "### Response:"
|
|
roles:
|
|
user: "HUMAN:"
|
|
system: "GPT:"
|
|
template:
|
|
completion: completion
|
|
chat: ggml-gpt4all-j
|
|
- name: list2
|
|
parameters:
|
|
model: testmodel
|
|
context_size: 512
|
|
threads: 10
|
|
stopwords:
|
|
- "HUMAN:"
|
|
- "### Response:"
|
|
roles:
|
|
user: "HUMAN:"
|
|
system: "GPT:"
|
|
template:
|
|
completion: completion
|
|
chat: ggml-gpt4all-j
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
See also [chatbot-ui](https://github.com/go-skynet/LocalAI/tree/master/examples/chatbot-ui) as an example on how to use config files.
|
|
|
|
</details>
|
|
|
|
## Windows compatibility
|
|
|
|
It should work, however you need to make sure you give enough resources to the container. See https://github.com/go-skynet/LocalAI/issues/2
|
|
|
|
## Build locally
|
|
|
|
Pre-built images might fit well for most of the modern hardware, however you can and might need to build the images manually.
|
|
|
|
In order to build the `LocalAI` container image locally you can use `docker`:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
# build the image
|
|
docker build -t LocalAI .
|
|
docker run LocalAI
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or build the binary with `make`:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
make build
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Frequently asked questions
|
|
|
|
Here are answers to some of the most common questions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### How do I get models?
|
|
|
|
<details>
|
|
|
|
Most ggml-based models should work, but newer models may require additions to the API. If a model doesn't work, please feel free to open up issues. However, be cautious about downloading models from the internet and directly onto your machine, as there may be security vulnerabilities in lama.cpp or ggml that could be maliciously exploited. Some models can be found on Hugging Face: https://huggingface.co/models?search=ggml, or models from gpt4all should also work: https://github.com/nomic-ai/gpt4all.
|
|
|
|
</details>
|
|
|
|
### What's the difference with Serge, or XXX?
|
|
|
|
|
|
<details>
|
|
|
|
LocalAI is a multi-model solution that doesn't focus on a specific model type (e.g., llama.cpp or alpaca.cpp), and it handles all of these internally for faster inference, easy to set up locally and deploy to Kubernetes.
|
|
|
|
</details>
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Can I use it with a Discord bot, or XXX?
|
|
|
|
<details>
|
|
|
|
Yes! If the client uses OpenAI and supports setting a different base URL to send requests to, you can use the LocalAI endpoint. This allows to use this with every application that was supposed to work with OpenAI, but without changing the application!
|
|
|
|
</details>
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Can this leverage GPUs?
|
|
|
|
<details>
|
|
|
|
Not currently, as ggml doesn't support GPUs yet: https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/discussions/915.
|
|
|
|
</details>
|
|
|
|
### Where is the webUI?
|
|
|
|
<details>
|
|
We are working on to have a good out of the box experience - however as LocalAI is an API you can already plug it into existing projects that provides are UI interfaces to OpenAI's APIs. There are several already on github, and should be compatible with LocalAI already (as it mimics the OpenAI API)
|
|
|
|
</details>
|
|
|
|
### Does it work with AutoGPT?
|
|
|
|
<details>
|
|
|
|
AutoGPT currently doesn't allow to set a different API URL, but there is a PR open for it, so this should be possible soon!
|
|
|
|
</details>
