README.md
Text Generation Inference
This is Preemo's fork of text-generation-inference, originally developed by Hugging Face. The original README is at README-HuggingFace.md. Since Hugging Face's text-generation-inference is no longer open-source, we have forked it and will continue to develop it here.
Our goal is to create an open-source text generation inference server that is modularized to allow for easy add state-of-the-art models, functionalities and optimizations. Functionalities and optimizations should be composable, so that users can easily combine them to create a custom inference server that fits their needs.
our plan
We at Preemo are currently busy working on our first release of our other product, so we expect to be able to start open-source development on this repository in September 2023. We will be working on the following, to ease the external contributions:
- Adding a public visible CI/CD pipeline that runs tests and builds docker images
- Unifying the build tools
- Modularizing the codebase, introducing a plugin system
Our long-term goal is to grow the community around this repository, as a playground for trying out new ideas and optimizations in LLM inference. We at Preemo will implement features that interest us, but we also welcome contributions from the community, as long as they are modularized and composable.
Extra features in comparison to Hugging Face text-generation-inference v0.9.4
4bit quantization
4bit quantization is available using the NF4 and FP4 data types from bitsandbytes. It can be enabled by providing --quantize bitsandbytes-nf4 or --quantize bitsandbytes-fp4 as a command line argument to text-generation-launcher.
CTranslate2
Int8 Ctranslate2 quantization is available using the --quantize ct2 as a command line argument to text-generation-launcher. It will convert the PyTorch Model provided in --model-id on the fly, and save the quantized model for the next start-up for up to 10x faster loading times. If CUDA is not available, Ctranslate2 will default to run on CPU.
Chat Completions in OpenAI Format
/chat/completions and /completions endpoints are available, using the API schema commonly known from OpenAI.
You may set the TGICHAT_(USER|ASS|SYS)_(PRE|POST) environment variables, to wrap the chat messages.
Optimal Llama-2-Chat config
For Llama-2, you should wrap each chat message with a different strings, depending on the role. Supported roles are `assistant`, `user`, `system`.TGICHAT_USER_PRE=" [INST] "
TGICHAT_USER_POST=" [\\INST] "
TGICHAT_ASS_PRE=""
TGICHAT_ASS_POST=""
TGICHAT_SYS_PRE=" [INST] <<SYS>> "
TGICHAT_SYS_POST=" <</SYS>> [\\INST] "
Note: To access a gated model, you may need to set: HUGGING_FACE_HUB_TOKEN for your access token.
Get started with Docker
model=TheBloke/Llama-2-13B-Chat-fp16 # around 14GB Vram.
volume=$PWD/data # share a volume with the Docker container to avoid downloading weights every run
image=docker.io/michaelf34/tgi:05-11-2023 # docker image by @michaelfeil
docker run --gpus all --shm-size 1g -p 8080:80 -v $volume:/data $image --model-id $model --quantize ct2
To see all options of text-generation-launcher you may use the --help command:
docker run $image --help
