- Libraries
- Transformers
How to use bigcode/starcoder with Transformers:
# Use a pipeline as a high-level helper from transformers import pipeline pipe = pipeline("text-generation", model="bigcode/starcoder")# Load model directly from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("bigcode/starcoder") model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("bigcode/starcoder") - Notebooks
- Google Colab
- Kaggle
- Local Apps
- vLLM
How to use bigcode/starcoder with vLLM:
Install from pip and serve model
# Install vLLM from pip: pip install vllm # Start the vLLM server: vllm serve "bigcode/starcoder" # Call the server using curl (OpenAI-compatible API): curl -X POST "http://localhost:8000/v1/completions" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ --data '{ "model": "bigcode/starcoder", "prompt": "Once upon a time,", "max_tokens": 512, "temperature": 0.5 }'Use Docker
docker model run hf.co/bigcode/starcoder
- SGLang
How to use bigcode/starcoder with SGLang:
Install from pip and serve model
# Install SGLang from pip: pip install sglang # Start the SGLang server: python3 -m sglang.launch_server \ --model-path "bigcode/starcoder" \ --host 0.0.0.0 \ --port 30000 # Call the server using curl (OpenAI-compatible API): curl -X POST "http://localhost:30000/v1/completions" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ --data '{ "model": "bigcode/starcoder", "prompt": "Once upon a time,", "max_tokens": 512, "temperature": 0.5 }'Use Docker images
docker run --gpus all \ --shm-size 32g \ -p 30000:30000 \ -v ~/.cache/huggingface:/root/.cache/huggingface \ --env "HF_TOKEN=<secret>" \ --ipc=host \ lmsysorg/sglang:latest \ python3 -m sglang.launch_server \ --model-path "bigcode/starcoder" \ --host 0.0.0.0 \ --port 30000 # Call the server using curl (OpenAI-compatible API): curl -X POST "http://localhost:30000/v1/completions" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ --data '{ "model": "bigcode/starcoder", "prompt": "Once upon a time,", "max_tokens": 512, "temperature": 0.5 }' - Docker Model Runner
How to use bigcode/starcoder with Docker Model Runner:
docker model run hf.co/bigcode/starcoder
text generation inference not working for starcoder model
I deployed the star coder model using the huggingface text generation inference container (replaced the token)
docker run -p 8080:80 -v $PWD/data:/data -e HUGGING_FACE_HUB_TOKEN= -d ghcr.io/huggingface/text-generation-inference:latest --model-id bigcode/starcoder --max-total-tokens 8192
After the docker container starts, the api end point does not work
curl 127.0.0.1:8080/generate \ -X POST \ -d '{"inputs":"What is Deep Learning?","parameters":{"max_new_tokens":20}}' \ -H 'Content-Type: application/json'
The response is 'curl: (52) Empty reply from server'
I think the api server is not started in the container. Is there anything else we have to do to get the api server working in the container? how do i debug this issue?
