1. Ensure you have a model file, a configuration YAML file, or both. Customize model defaults and specific settings with a configuration file. For advanced configurations, refer to the Advanced Documentation.

  2. For GPU Acceleration instructions, visit GPU acceleration.

  # Prepare the models into the `model` directory
mkdir models

# copy your models to it
cp your-model.gguf models/

# run the LocalAI container
docker run -p 8080:8080 -v $PWD/models:/models -ti --rm quay.io/go-skynet/local-ai:latest --models-path /models --context-size 700 --threads 4

# Try the endpoint with curl
curl http://localhost:8080/v1/completions -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{
     "model": "your-model.gguf",
     "prompt": "A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away",
     "temperature": 0.7
   }'

Here is a more specific example:

  mkdir models

# Download luna-ai-llama2 to models/
wget https://huggingface.co/TheBloke/Luna-AI-Llama2-Uncensored-GGUF/resolve/main/luna-ai-llama2-uncensored.Q4_0.gguf -O models/luna-ai-llama2

# Use a template from the examples
cp -rf prompt-templates/getting_started.tmpl models/luna-ai-llama2.tmpl

docker run -p 8080:8080 -v $PWD/models:/models -ti --rm quay.io/go-skynet/local-ai:latest --models-path /models --context-size 700 --threads 4

# Now API is accessible at localhost:8080
curl http://localhost:8080/v1/models
# {"object":"list","data":[{"id":"luna-ai-llama2","object":"model"}]}

curl http://localhost:8080/v1/chat/completions -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{
     "model": "luna-ai-llama2",
     "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "How are you?"}],
     "temperature": 0.9
   }'
# {"model":"luna-ai-llama2","choices":[{"message":{"role":"assistant","content":"I'm doing well, thanks. How about you?"}}]}
  
  # Clone LocalAI
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.gguf models/

# (optional) Edit the .env file to set things like context size and threads
# vim .env

# start with docker compose
docker compose up -d --pull always
# or you can build the images with:
# docker compose up -d --build

# Now API is accessible at localhost:8080
curl http://localhost:8080/v1/models
# {"object":"list","data":[{"id":"your-model.gguf","object":"model"}]}

curl http://localhost:8080/v1/completions -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{
     "model": "your-model.gguf",
     "prompt": "A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away",
     "temperature": 0.7
   }'

Note: If you are on Windows, please make sure the project is on the Linux Filesystem, otherwise loading models might be slow. For more Info: Microsoft Docs

LocalAI binary releases are available in Github.

See the build section.
