How can I switch to local LLM engine

[oppokui]

In Chat UI, there is a long list of LLM model. The default one is GPT 3.5 Turbo, which is openAI as I guess.
I configure openAI api key in .env, so it should be used, as the answer is very fast.

When I try to switch it to Llama 7B, it report:

An error occurred while generating text: Model llama-7b-GGML is currently booting.

I setup another llm engine "vllm" based on llama-2-7b-chat model, and expose in port 3000, it is compatible with openAI API.
how can I configure it to use this new engine?

The model name will be facebook/opt-125m for example purposes.

In ./app/models/llms.py, find the LLMModels class.
Then try adding this to the class members and reboot.

     my_model = OpenAIModel(
         name="facebook/opt-125m",
         max_total_tokens=4096;
         max_tokens_per_request=4096;
         token_margin=10;
         tokenizer=OpenAITokenizer("gpt-3.5-turbo"),
         api_url="http://localhost:3000/v1/chat/completions",
     )

In the case of tokenizer, since tiktoken(OpenAITokenizer) is used, token counting will not be accurate compared to vllm which uses llama tokenizer. However, if the vllm server side handles the token limit exceeding error well, you will be able to use it without any problems.

It works! But meet one problem when uploading a txt file for similarity search.

I use the script to start vllm engine remotely:

pip install git+https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm.git
pip install fschat
python -m vllm.entrypoints.openai.api_server \
  --model meta-llama/Llama-2-7b-chat-hf \
  --tensor-parallel-size 4 \
  --trust-remote-code \
  --gpu-memory-utilization 0.5 \
  --dtype half \
  --host 0.0.0.0 \
  --port 3000

Then enrich llms.py: (the max tokens can't be 4096)

    llama_2_7b_vllm = OpenAIModel(
        name="meta-llama/Llama-2-7b-chat-hf",
        max_total_tokens=2048,
        max_tokens_per_request=2048,
        token_margin=8,
        tokenizer=OpenAITokenizer("gpt-4"),
        api_url="http://ec2-18-211-48-230.compute-1.amazonaws.com:3000/v1/chat/completions",
        api_key=OPENAI_API_KEY,
    )

I can ask "who are you?" to remote llama engine, and it respond as llama.

Then I want to upload txt file, it hang there. It works if I use gpt-3.5 or gpt4.
The api container print logs like:

Oh, I realized the error is related to openai.com access. I can't access it in local machine, let me retry it in AWS instance.
