LoLLMs Server provides a Flask-based API and WebSocket interface for generating text using various large language models. It targets developers seeking to integrate LLM capabilities into applications, offering features like multiple personalities, real-time generation, and local data handling.

How It Works

LoLLMs Server acts as a unified interface to different LLM bindings, abstracting away model-specific complexities. It supports multiple "personalities" to influence generation style and tone. The architecture emphasizes local data storage and processing, even when serving requests remotely, with communication handled via RESTful API and WebSockets for real-time interaction.

Quick Start & Requirements

• Install via pip: pip install --upgrade lollms or pip install --upgrade git+https://github.com/ParisNeo/lollms.git
• GPU support requires CUDA installation. A conda environment setup is recommended: conda create --name lollms python=3.10, conda activate lollms, conda install -c anaconda cudatoolkit.
• Configuration is managed via lollms-settings.
• Models can be installed from Hugging Face URLs or local paths.
• Official documentation: https://github.com/ParisNeo/lollms
