Serge - LLaMa made easy 🦙

A chat interface based on llama.cpp for running Alpaca models. Entirely self-hosted, no API keys needed. Fits on 4GB of RAM and runs on the CPU.

• SvelteKit frontend
• MongoDB for storing chat history & parameters
• FastAPI + beanie for the API, wrapping calls to llama.cpp

Getting started

Setting up Serge is very easy. TLDR for running it with Alpaca 7B:

git clone https://github.com/nsarrazin/serge.git && cd serge

cp .env.sample .env

docker compose up -d
docker compose exec api python3 /usr/src/app/utils/download.py tokenizer 7B

(You can pass 7B 13B 30B as an argument to download multiple models.)

Then just go to http://localhost:8008/ and you're good to go!

Models

Currently only the 7B, 13B and 30B alpaca models are supported. There's a download script for downloading them inside of the container, described above.

If you have existing weights from another project you can add them to the serge_weights volume using docker cp.

What's next

• Front-end to interface with the API
• Pass model parameters when creating a chat
• User profiles & authentication
• Different prompt options
• LangChain integration with a custom LLM
• Support for other llama models, quantization, etc.

And a lot more!
