# Text generation web UI
A gradio web UI for running Large Language Models like LLaMA, llama.cpp, GPT-J, OPT, and GALACTICA.
Its goal is to become the [AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui](https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui) of text generation.
[[Try it on Google Colab]](https://colab.research.google.com/github/oobabooga/AI-Notebooks/blob/main/Colab-TextGen-GPU.ipynb)

Just download the zip above, extract it, and double click on "install". The web UI and all its dependencies will be installed in the same folder.
* To download a model, double click on "download-model"
* To start the web UI, double click on "start-webui"

> **Note**
>
> Thanks to [@jllllll](https://github.com/jllllll) and [@ClayShoaf](https://github.com/ClayShoaf), the Windows 1-click installer now sets up 8-bit and 4-bit requirements out of the box. No additional installation steps are necessary.
> **Note**
>
> There is no need to run the installer as admin.
### 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/wiki/WSL-installation-guide).
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/.
MacOS users, refer to the comments here: https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui/pull/393
3. Install the web UI
```
git clone https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui
cd text-generation-webui
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
> **Note**
>
> For bitsandbytes and `--load-in-8bit` to work on Linux/WSL, this dirty fix is currently necessary: https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui/issues/400#issuecomment-1474876859
### 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/wiki/Windows-installation-guide).
### Alternative: Docker
https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui/issues/174, https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui/issues/87
## 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.
#### 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`
Optionally, you can use the following command-line flags:
#### Basic settings
| Flag | Description |
|------------------|-------------|
| `-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.|
| `--cai-chat` | Launch the web UI in chat mode with a style similar to the Character.AI website. |
| `--model MODEL` | Name of the model to load by default. |
| `--lora LORA` | Name of the LoRA to apply to the model by default. |
| `--model-dir MODEL_DIR` | Path to directory with all the models |
| `--lora-dir LORA_DIR` | Path to directory with all the loras |
| `--no-stream` | Don't stream the text output in real time. |
| `--settings SETTINGS_FILE` | Load the default interface settings from this json file. See `settings-template.json` for an example. If you create a file called `settings.json`, this file will be loaded by default without the need to use the `--settings` flag.|
| `--extensions EXTENSIONS [EXTENSIONS ...]` | The list of extensions to load. If you want to load more than one extension, write the names separated by spaces. |
| `--verbose` | Print the prompts to the terminal. |
#### Accelerate/transformers
| Flag | Description |
|------------------|-------------|
| `--cpu` | Use the CPU to generate text.|
| `--auto-devices` | Automatically split the model across the available GPU(s) and CPU.|
| `--gpu-memory GPU_MEMORY [GPU_MEMORY ...]` | Maxmimum GPU memory in GiB to be allocated per GPU. Example: `--gpu-memory 10` for a single GPU, `--gpu-memory 10 5` for two GPUs. You can also set values in MiB like `--gpu-memory 3500MiB`. |
| `--cpu-memory CPU_MEMORY` | Maximum CPU memory in GiB to allocate for offloaded weights. Same as above.|
| `--disk` | If the model is too large for your GPU(s) and CPU combined, send the remaining layers to the disk. |

| `--load-in-8bit` | Load the model with 8-bit precision.|
| `--bf16` | Load the model with bfloat16 precision. Requires NVIDIA Ampere GPU. |
| `--no-cache` | Set `use_cache` to False while generating text. This reduces the VRAM usage a bit with a performance cost. |
#### llama.cpp

| `--threads` | Number of threads to use in llama.cpp. |
#### GPTQ
| Flag | Description |

|------------------|-------------|
| `--rwkv-strategy RWKV_STRATEGY` | RWKV: The strategy to use while loading the model. Examples: "cpu fp32", "cuda fp16", "cuda fp16i8". |
| `--rwkv-cuda-on` | RWKV: Compile the CUDA kernel for better performance. |
#### Gradio
| Flag | Description |
|------------------|-------------|
| `--listen` | Make the web UI reachable from your local network. |

| `--gradio-auth-path GRADIO_AUTH_PATH` | Set the gradio authentication file path. The file should contain one or more user:password pairs in this format: "u1:p1,u2:p2,u3:p3" |
Out of memory errors? [Check the low VRAM guide](https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui/wiki/Low-VRAM-guide).
## 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.
