Generates a REST API to use LLaMa2 model via docker images that run on CPU, not GPU

In order to run this API on a local machine, a running docker engine is needed.

run using docker:

create a config.yaml file with the configs described below and then run:

docker run -v $PWD/models/:/models:rw -v $PWD/config.yaml:/llm-api/config.yaml:ro -p 8000:8000 --ulimit memlock=16000000000 ghcr.io/p-r-t/llm-api

or use the docker-compose.yaml in this repo and run using compose:

docker compose up

When running for the first time, the app will download the model from huggingface based on the configurations in setup_params and name the local model file accordingly, on later runs it looks up the same local file and loads it into memory

You can configure the model usage in a local config.yaml file, the configs, here is an example:

models_dir: /models
model_family: llama
setup_params:
  repo_id: user/repo_id
  filename: ggml-model-q4_0.bin
model_params:
  n_ctx: 512
  n_parts: -1
  n_gpu_layers: 0
  seed: -1
  use_mmap: True
  n_threads: 8
  n_batch: 2048
  last_n_tokens_size: 64
  lora_base: null
  lora_path: null
  low_vram: False
  tensor_split: null
  rope_freq_base: 10000.0
  rope_freq_scale: 1.0
  verbose: True

Fill repo_id and filename to a huggingface repo where a model is hosted, and let the application download it for you.

• convert refers to https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/blob/master/convert-unversioned-ggml-to-ggml.py set this to true when you need to use an older model which needs to be converted
• migrate refers to https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/blob/master/migrate-ggml-2023-03-30-pr613.py set this to true when you need to apply this script to an older model which needs to be migrated

the following example shows the different params you can sent to Llama generate and agenerate endpoints:

POST /generate

curl --location 'localhost:8000/generate' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{
    "prompt": "What is the capital of paris",
    "params": {
        "suffix": null or string,
        "max_tokens": 128,
        "temperature": 0.8,
        "top_p": 0.95,
        "logprobs": null or integer,
        "echo": False,
        "stop": ["\Q"],
        "frequency_penalty: 0.0,
        "presence_penalty": 0.0,
        "repeat_penalty": 1.1
        "top_k": 40,
    }
}'
