# GPT4All REST API This directory contains the source code to run and build docker images that run a FastAPI app for serving inference from GPT4All models. The API matches the OpenAI API spec. ## Tutorial ### Starting the app First build the FastAPI docker image. You only have to do this on initial build or when you add new dependencies to the requirements.txt file: ```bash DOCKER_BUILDKIT=1 docker build -t gpt4all_api --progress plain -f gpt4all_api/Dockerfile.buildkit . ``` Then, start the backend with: ```bash docker compose up --build ``` #### Spinning up your app Run `docker compose up` to spin up the backend. Monitor the logs for errors in-case you forgot to set an environment variable above. #### Development Run ```bash docker compose up --build ``` and edit files in the `api` directory. The api will hot-reload on changes. You can run the unit tests with ```bash make test ``` #### Viewing API documentation Once the FastAPI ap is started you can access its documentation and test the search endpoint by going to: ``` localhost:80/docs ``` This documentation should match the OpenAI OpenAPI spec located at https://github.com/openai/openai-openapi/blob/master/openapi.yaml #### Running inference ```python import openai openai.api_base = "http://localhost:4891/v1" openai.api_key = "not needed for a local LLM" def test_completion(): model = "gpt4all-j-v1.3-groovy" prompt = "Who is Michael Jordan?" response = openai.Completion.create( model=model, prompt=prompt, max_tokens=50, temperature=0.28, top_p=0.95, n=1, echo=True, stream=False ) assert len(response['choices'][0]['text']) > len(prompt) print(response) ```
