# Text generation web UI
A gradio web UI for running Large Language Models like LLaMA, llama.cpp, GPT-J, Pythia, OPT, and GALACTICA.
Its goal is to become the [AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui](https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui) of text generation.

## Installation
### One-click installers
| Windows | Linux | macOS |
|-------|--------|--------|
| [oobabooga-windows.zip](https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui/releases/download/installers/oobabooga_windows.zip) | [oobabooga-linux.zip](https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui/releases/download/installers/oobabooga_linux.zip) |[oobabooga-macos.zip](https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui/releases/download/installers/oobabooga_macos.zip) |
Just download the zip above, extract it, and double-click on "start". The web UI and all its dependencies will be installed in the same folder.
* The source codes are here: https://github.com/oobabooga/one-click-installers
* There is no need to run the installers as admin.
* AMD doesn't work on Windows.
* Huge thanks to [@jllllll](https://github.com/jllllll), [@ClayShoaf](https://github.com/ClayShoaf), and [@xNul](https://github.com/xNul) for their contributions to these installers.
### Manual installation using Conda
Recommended if you have some experience with the command line.
On Windows, I additionally recommend carrying out the installation on WSL instead of the base system: [WSL installation guide](https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui/blob/main/docs/WSL-installation-guide.md).
#### 0. Install Conda
https://docs.conda.io/en/latest/miniconda.html
On Linux or WSL, it can be automatically installed with these two commands:
```
curl -sL "https://repo.anaconda.com/miniconda/Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh" > "Miniconda3.sh"
bash Miniconda3.sh
```
Source: https://educe-ubc.github.io/conda.html
#### 1. Create a new conda environment
```
conda create -n textgen python=3.10.9
conda activate textgen
```
#### 2. Install Pytorch
| System | GPU | Command |
|--------|---------|---------|
| Linux/WSL | NVIDIA | `pip3 install torch torchvision torchaudio` |
| Linux | AMD | `pip3 install torch torchvision torchaudio --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/rocm5.4.2` |
| MacOS + MPS (untested) | Any | `pip3 install torch torchvision torchaudio` |
The up-to-date commands can be found here: https://pytorch.org/get-started/locally/.
#### 2.1 Special instructions
* MacOS users: https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui/pull/393
* AMD users: https://rentry.org/eq3hg
#### 3. Install the web UI
```
git clone https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui
cd text-generation-webui
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
#### 4. Install GPTQ-for-LLaMa and the monkey patch
The base installation covers [transformers](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers) models (`AutoModelForCausalLM` and `AutoModelForSeq2SeqLM` specifically) and [llama.cpp](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp) (GGML) models.
To use 4-bit GPU models, the additional installation steps below are necessary:
[GPTQ models (4 bit mode)](https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui/blob/main/docs/GPTQ-models-(4-bit-mode).md)
### Alternative: manual Windows installation
As an alternative to the recommended WSL method, you can install the web UI natively on Windows using this guide. It will be a lot harder and the performance may be slower: [Windows installation guide](https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui/blob/main/docs/Windows-installation-guide.md).
### Alternative: Docker
```
ln -s docker/{Dockerfile,docker-compose.yml,.dockerignore} .
cp docker/.env.example .env
# Edit .env and set TORCH_CUDA_ARCH_LIST based on your GPU model
docker compose up --build
```
You need to have docker compose v2.17 or higher installed in your system. To see how to install docker compose itself, see the guide in [here](https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui/blob/main/docs/Docker.md).

### Updating the requirements
From time to time, the `requirements.txt` changes. To update, use this command:
```
conda activate textgen
cd text-generation-webui
pip install -r requirements.txt --upgrade
```
## Downloading models
Models should be placed inside the `models/` folder.
[Hugging Face](https://huggingface.co/models?pipeline_tag=text-generation&sort=downloads) is the main place to download models. These are some examples:
* [Pythia](https://huggingface.co/models?sort=downloads&search=eleutherai%2Fpythia+deduped)
* [OPT](https://huggingface.co/models?search=facebook/opt)
* [GALACTICA](https://huggingface.co/models?search=facebook/galactica)
* [GPT-J 6B](https://huggingface.co/EleutherAI/gpt-j-6B/tree/main)
You can automatically download a model from HF using the script `download-model.py`:
python download-model.py organization/model
For example:
python download-model.py facebook/opt-1.3b
If you want to download a model manually, note that all you need are the json, txt, and pytorch\*.bin (or model*.safetensors) files. The remaining files are not necessary.
#### GGML models
You can drop these directly into the `models/` folder, making sure that the file name contains `ggml` somewhere and ends in `.bin`.
#### GPT-4chan
[GPT-4chan](https://huggingface.co/ykilcher/gpt-4chan) has been shut down from Hugging Face, so you need to download it elsewhere. You have two options:
* Torrent: [16-bit](https://archive.org/details/gpt4chan_model_float16) / [32-bit](https://archive.org/details/gpt4chan_model)
* Direct download: [16-bit](https://theswissbay.ch/pdf/_notpdf_/gpt4chan_model_float16/) / [32-bit](https://theswissbay.ch/pdf/_notpdf_/gpt4chan_model/)
The 32-bit version is only relevant if you intend to run the model in CPU mode. Otherwise, you should use the 16-bit version.
After downloading the model, follow these steps:
1. Place the files under `models/gpt4chan_model_float16` or `models/gpt4chan_model`.
2. Place GPT-J 6B's config.json file in that same folder: [config.json](https://huggingface.co/EleutherAI/gpt-j-6B/raw/main/config.json).
3. Download GPT-J 6B's tokenizer files (they will be automatically detected when you attempt to load GPT-4chan):
```
python download-model.py EleutherAI/gpt-j-6B --text-only
```
## Starting the web UI
conda activate textgen
cd text-generation-webui
python server.py
Then browse to
`http://localhost:7860/?__theme=dark`

|--------------------------------------------|-------------|
| `-h`, `--help` | Show this help message and exit. |
| `--notebook` | Launch the web UI in notebook mode, where the output is written to the same text box as the input. |
| `--chat` | Launch the web UI in chat mode. |
| `--character CHARACTER` | The name of the character to load in chat mode by default. |
| `--model MODEL` | Name of the model to load by default. |

## Presets
Inference settings presets can be created under `presets/` as text files. These files are detected automatically at startup.
By default, 10 presets by NovelAI and KoboldAI are included. These were selected out of a sample of 43 presets after applying a K-Means clustering algorithm and selecting the elements closest to the average of each cluster.
