Fortunately, there are many providers for LLMs, and some of them can even be run locally.
# Setting Up Local Language Models for Your App
There are two models used in the app:
1. Embeddings.
2. Text generation.
Your app relies on two essential models: Embeddings and Text Generation. While OpenAI's default models work seamlessly, you have the flexibility to switch providers or even run the models locally.
By default, we use OpenAI's models, but if you want to change it or even run it locally, it's very simple!
## Step 1: Configure Environment Variables
### Go to .env file or set environment variables:
Navigate to the `.env` file or set the following environment variables:
`LLM_NAME=<your Text generation>`
```env
LLM_NAME=<your Text Generation model>
API_KEY=<API key for Text Generation>
EMBEDDINGS_NAME=<LLM for Embeddings>
EMBEDDINGS_KEY=<API key for Embeddings>
VITE_API_STREAMING=<true or false>
```
`API_KEY=<api_key for Text generation>`
You can omit the keys if users provide their own. Ensure you set `LLM_NAME` and `EMBEDDINGS_NAME`.
`EMBEDDINGS_NAME=<llm for embeddings>`
## Step 2: Choose Your Models
`EMBEDDINGS_KEY=<api_key for embeddings>`
**Options for `LLM_NAME`:**
- openai
- manifest
- cohere
- Arc53/docsgpt-14b
- Arc53/docsgpt-7b-falcon
- llama.cpp
`VITE_API_STREAMING=<true or false (true if using openai, false for all others)>`
**Options for `EMBEDDINGS_NAME`:**
- openai_text-embedding-ada-002
- huggingface_sentence-transformers/all-mpnet-base-v2
- huggingface_hkunlp/instructor-large
- cohere_medium
You don't need to provide keys if you are happy with users providing theirs, so make sure you set `LLM_NAME` and `EMBEDDINGS_NAME`.
If using Llama, set `EMBEDDINGS_NAME` to `huggingface_sentence-transformers/all-mpnet-base-v2`. Download the required model and place it in the `models/` folder.
Options:
LLM_NAME (openai, manifest, cohere, Arc53/docsgpt-14b, Arc53/docsgpt-7b-falcon, llama.cpp)
EMBEDDINGS_NAME (openai_text-embedding-ada-002, huggingface_sentence-transformers/all-mpnet-base-v2, huggingface_hkunlp/instructor-large, cohere_medium)
Alternatively, for local Llama setup, run `setup.sh` and choose option 1. The script handles the DocsGPT model addition.
If using Llama, set the `EMBEDDINGS_NAME` to `huggingface_sentence-transformers/all-mpnet-base-v2` and be sure to download [this model](https://d3dg1063dc54p9.cloudfront.net/models/docsgpt-7b-f16.gguf) into the `models/` folder: `https://d3dg1063dc54p9.cloudfront.net/models/docsgpt-7b-f16.gguf`.
## Step 3: Local Hosting for Privacy
Alternatively, if you wish to run Llama locally, you can run `setup.sh` and choose option 1 when prompted. You do not need to manually add the DocsGPT model mentioned above to your `models/` folder if you use `setup.sh`, as the script will manage that step for you.
That's it!
### Hosting everything locally and privately (for using our optimised open-source models)
If you are working with critical data and don't want anything to leave your premises.
Make sure you set `SELF_HOSTED_MODEL` as true in your `.env` variable, and for your `LLM_NAME`, you can use anything that is on Hugging Face.
If working with sensitive data, host everything locally by setting `SELF_HOSTED_MODEL` to true in your `.env`. For `LLM_NAME`, use any model available on Hugging Face.
That's it! Your app is now configured for local and private hosting, ensuring optimal security for critical data.
