Understand the project

Practical overview

When it fits

Use it when you want a self-hosted interface or local backend for supported Llama 2 and Code Llama models, and can select and configure the model, backend and hardware for your setup.

Who it is for

  • People who want to run supported Llama-family models locally through a web interface.
  • Developers building applications or generative-agent projects that can use a local Llama 2 backend.
  • Users exploring Code Llama for code completion, filling or instruction-based chat.

Documented uses

  • Run a supported Llama 2 chat model locally through a browser interface.
  • Configure model paths and inference backends for different supported Llama 2 models.
  • Use Code Llama for code completion and filling.
  • Provide an OpenAI-compatible API backed by a Llama 2 model.
  • Connect an application to a local model using llama2-wrapper.
Before you choose

Requirements & limits

The repository specifies an MIT license. Installation instructions cover Linux, Windows and macOS, with inference described for CPU or GPU.

  • Supported model formats include GPTQ, GGML and GGUF, with 8-bit and 4-bit modes described.
  • Available backends include llama.cpp, Transformers, bitsandbytes and AutoGPTQ.
  • The default configuration uses llama.cpp and a quantized 7B chat model.
  • The README flags bitsandbytes installation considerations for older NVIDIA GPUs and Windows.
  • Base Code Llama and Code Llama-Python are described as continuation-focused rather than instruction-following; Code Llama Instruct is the documented chatbot-style option.

Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.

Source-based practical guide

Install LLAMA2 Webui from source

Install the project and its listed Python requirements as the documented setup stage.

Before you start

  • Git
  • Python package installer pip

Steps

  1. Clone the repository with the command below.

    Documented command
    git clone https://github.com/liltom-eth/llama2-webui.git
  2. Change into the llama2-webui directory.

  3. Install dependencies with the command below.

    Documented command
    pip install -r requirements.txt

Expected outcome

The repository and its listed requirements are installed; the README documents running the chat interface as a subsequent usage stage.

Guide limitations

  • This guide covers installation only, not a successful launch.
  • The README documents separate bitsandbytes installation considerations for older NVIDIA GPUs and Windows.
