✔ Require opinion on `example/llm` · services-flake

I propose this then,

Have two examples,

examples/ollama-ui: basically our current example but with all of Pol Dellaiera 's suggestions (no custom dataDir; no pre-loaded models)

examples/llm: a new example that imports the previous example (shared service) and sets the two things only -- dataDir and models (here, we can use a good model without size restriction)

For video demo (on X and for docs), we can use the latter example.

On 2nd thought, I don't think we should do this. I'll open a PR

What do you have in mind?

@Srid Why not have the ollama1 data dir at the top-level in ~/.services-flake instead of ~/.services-flake/llm? I ask this because we follow the top-level convention even in the data dir which is by default in $PWD

That makes sense. So ~/.services-flake/llm/data/...? Yes.

Shivaraj B H (Jun 17 2024 at 15:45):

No, I meant at the top-level itself. ~/.services-flake/<service>, in this case ~/.services-flake/ollama1

Because we consider llm a self-contained (services-flake) "app", so it makes sense to have its own data directory.

(I'm back on Zulip again)

Pol Dellaiera (Jun 20 2024 at 20:23):

As I explained, I left here because I don't want to spread to too many communication platforms and because I'm really used to the UI in Zulip.

So I though I had deleted my account... but actually I succeeded to disable it, I don't know how.

Pol Dellaiera (Jun 20 2024 at 20:24):

Anyway, thanks for re-enabling it.

This is the PHI3 model here. It's small and I like it. It's the default LLM on my open-webui instance.

This is very impressive.

I don't know what you think guys.

Pol Dellaiera (Jun 20 2024 at 20:48):

But I'll check your messages tomorrow. Time to go to bed. Cheers.

One idea is to have the flake app take the model name(s) via env vars, overriding what’s in flake config.

Shivaraj B H (Jul 02 2024 at 14:00):

I just tried out phi3, it is quite nice and is only 2.4 G. Should we switch the example/llm to use this instead of the 9 G model?

Srid (Jul 02 2024 at 14:03):

You can make that call.
