**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), [rwkv.cpp](https://github.com/saharNooby/rwkv.cpp) and [ggml](https://github.com/ggerganov/ggml), including support GPT4ALL-J which is licensed under Apache 2.0.
**LocalAI** is a drop-in replacement REST API compatible with OpenAI for local CPU inferencing. It allows to run models locally or on-prem with consumer grade hardware.

For `rwkv` models, you need to put also the associated tokenizer along with the ggml model:

## Prompt templates
### 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.
Consider the following `models` folder in the `example/chatbot-ui`:
```
base ls -liah examples/chatbot-ui/models
36487587 drwxr-xr-x 2 mudler mudler 4.0K May 3 12:27 .
36487586 drwxr-xr-x 3 mudler mudler 4.0K May 3 10:42 ..
36465214 -rw-r--r-- 1 mudler mudler 10 Apr 27 07:46 completion.tmpl
36464855 -rw-r--r-- 1 mudler mudler 3.6G Apr 27 00:08 ggml-gpt4all-j
36464537 -rw-r--r-- 1 mudler mudler 245 May 3 10:42 gpt-3.5-turbo.yaml
36467388 -rw-r--r-- 1 mudler mudler 180 Apr 27 07:46 gpt4all.tmpl
```
In the `gpt-3.5-turbo.yaml` file it is defined the `gpt-3.5-turbo` model which is an alias to use `gpt4all-j` with pre-defined options.
For instance, consider the following that declares `gpt-3.5-turbo` backed by the `ggml-gpt4all-j` model:
```yaml
name: gpt-3.5-turbo
# Default model parameters
parameters:
# Relative to the models path
model: ggml-gpt4all-j
# temperature
temperature: 0.3
# all the OpenAI request options here..
# Default context size
context_size: 512
threads: 10
# Define a backend (optional). By default it will try to guess the backend the first time the model is interacted with.
backend: gptj # available: llama, stablelm, gpt2, gptj rwkv
# stopwords (if supported by the backend)
stopwords:
- "HUMAN:"
- "### Response:"
# define chat roles
roles:
user: "HUMAN:"
system: "GPT:"
template:
# template file ".tmpl" with the prompt template to use by default on the endpoint call. Note there is no extension in the files
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.

### Prompt templates

## Installation
### CLI
Currently LocalAI comes as container images and can be used with docker or a containre engine of choice.
You can control LocalAI with command line arguments, to specify a binding address, or the number of threads.
<details>
Usage:
```
local-ai --models-path <model_path> [--address <address>] [--threads <num_threads>]
```
| 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. |
</details>
## Setup
Currently LocalAI comes as a container image and can be used with docker or a container engine of choice. You can check out all the available images with corresponding tags [here](https://quay.io/repository/go-skynet/local-ai?tab=tags&tag=latest).
### Docker
<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 │
└───────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
```
</details>
### Build locally
<details>
In order to build the `LocalAI` container image locally you can use `docker`:
```
# build the image
docker build -t LocalAI .
docker run LocalAI
```
Or you can build the binary with `make`:
```
make build
```
</details>
### Build on mac
Building on Mac (M1 or M2) works, but you may need to install some prerequisites using `brew`.
<details>
The below has been tested by one mac user and found to work. Note that this doesn't use docker to run the server:
```
# install build dependencies
brew install cmake
brew install go
# clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/go-skynet/LocalAI.git
cd LocalAI
# build the binary
make build
# 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/
# Run LocalAI
./local-ai --models-path ./models/ --debug
# Now API is accessible at localhost:8080
curl http://localhost:8080/v1/models
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
}'
```
</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

## 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:

│ │
│ 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.
