Previously, the parameters under the "model" block in config.yml only handled the loading of a model on startup. This meant that any subsequent API request required each parameter to be filled out or use a sane default (usually defaults to the model's config.json). However, there are cases where admins may want an argument from the config to apply if the parameter isn't provided in the request body. To help alleviate this, add a mechanism that works like sampler overrides where users can specify a flag that acts as a fallback. Therefore, this change both preserves the source of truth of what parameters the admin is loading and adds some convenience for users that want customizable defaults for their requests. This behavior may change in the future, but I think it solves the issue for now. Signed-off-by: kingbri <bdashore3@proton.me> |

TabbyAPI
Important
In addition to the README, please read the Wiki page for information about getting started!
Note
Need help? Join the Discord Server and get the
Tabbyrole. Please be nice when asking questions.
A FastAPI based application that allows for generating text using an LLM (large language model) using the Exllamav2 backend
Disclaimer
This project is marked rolling release. There may be bugs and changes down the line. Please be aware that you might need to reinstall dependencies if needed.
TabbyAPI is a hobby project solely for a small amount of users. It is not meant to run on production servers. For that, please look at other backends that support those workloads.
Getting Started
Important
This README is not for getting started. Please read the Wiki.
Read the Wiki for more information. It contains user-facing documentation for installation, configuration, sampling, API usage, and so much more.
Supported Model Types
TabbyAPI uses Exllamav2 as a powerful and fast backend for model inference, loading, etc. Therefore, the following types of models are supported:
-
Exl2 (Highly recommended)
-
GPTQ
-
FP16 (using Exllamav2's loader)
In addition, TabbyAPI supports parallel batching using paged attention for Nvidia Ampere GPUs and higher.
Alternative Loaders/Backends
If you want to use a different model type or quantization method than the ones listed above, here are some alternative backends with their own APIs:
-
GGUF + GGML - KoboldCPP
-
Production ready + Many other quants + batching - Aphrodite Engine
-
Production ready + batching - VLLM
