## Installation
### One-click installers
| Windows | Linux | macOS | WSL |
|--------|--------|--------|--------|
| [oobabooga-windows.zip](https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui/releases/download/installers/oobabooga_windows.zip) | [oobabooga-linux.zip](https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui/releases/download/installers/oobabooga_linux.zip) |[oobabooga-macos.zip](https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui/releases/download/installers/oobabooga_macos.zip) | [oobabooga-wsl.zip](https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui/releases/download/installers/oobabooga_wsl.zip) |
Just download the zip above, extract it, and double-click on "start". The web UI and all its dependencies will be installed in the same folder.
* The source codes are here: https://github.com/oobabooga/one-click-installers
* There is no need to run the installers as admin.
* AMD doesn't work on Windows.
* Huge thanks to [@jllllll](https://github.com/jllllll), [@ClayShoaf](https://github.com/ClayShoaf), and [@xNul](https://github.com/xNul) for their contributions to these installers.
### Manual installation using Conda
Recommended if you have some experience with the command line.
#### 0. Install Conda
https://docs.conda.io/en/latest/miniconda.html
On Linux or WSL, it can be automatically installed with these two commands:
```
curl -sL "https://repo.anaconda.com/miniconda/Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh" > "Miniconda3.sh"
bash Miniconda3.sh
```
Source: https://educe-ubc.github.io/conda.html
#### 1. Create a new conda environment
```
conda create -n textgen python=3.10.9
conda activate textgen
```
#### 2. Install Pytorch
| System | GPU | Command |
|--------|---------|---------|
| Linux/WSL | NVIDIA | `pip3 install torch torchvision torchaudio` |
| Linux | AMD | `pip3 install torch torchvision torchaudio --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/rocm5.4.2` |
| MacOS + MPS (untested) | Any | `pip3 install torch torchvision torchaudio` |
| Windows | NVIDIA | `pip3 install torch torchvision torchaudio --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu117` |
The up-to-date commands can be found here: https://pytorch.org/get-started/locally/.
#### 2.1 Special instructions
* MacOS users: https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui/pull/393
* AMD users: https://rentry.org/eq3hg
#### 3. Install the web UI
```
git clone https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui
cd text-generation-webui
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
#### bitsandbytes
bitsandbytes >= 0.39 may not work on older NVIDIA GPUs. In that case, to use `--load-in-8bit`, you may have to downgrade like this:
* Linux: `pip install bitsandbytes==0.38.1`
* Windows: `pip install https://github.com/jllllll/bitsandbytes-windows-webui/raw/main/bitsandbytes-0.38.1-py3-none-any.whl`
### Alternative: Docker
```
ln -s docker/{Dockerfile,docker-compose.yml,.dockerignore} .
cp docker/.env.example .env
# Edit .env and set TORCH_CUDA_ARCH_LIST based on your GPU model
docker compose up --build
```
* You need to have docker compose v2.17 or higher installed. See [this guide](https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui/blob/main/docs/Docker.md) for instructions.
* For additional docker files, check out [this repository](https://github.com/Atinoda/text-generation-webui-docker).
### Updating the requirements
From time to time, the `requirements.txt` changes. To update, use this command:
```
conda activate textgen
cd text-generation-webui
pip install -r requirements.txt --upgrade
```
## Downloading models
Models should be placed inside the `models/` folder.
[Hugging Face](https://huggingface.co/models?pipeline_tag=text-generation&sort=downloads) is the main place to download models. These are some examples:
* [Pythia](https://huggingface.co/models?sort=downloads&search=eleutherai%2Fpythia+deduped)
* [OPT](https://huggingface.co/models?search=facebook/opt)
* [GALACTICA](https://huggingface.co/models?search=facebook/galactica)
* [GPT-J 6B](https://huggingface.co/EleutherAI/gpt-j-6B/tree/main)
You can automatically download a model from HF using the script `download-model.py`:
python download-model.py organization/model
For example:
python download-model.py facebook/opt-1.3b
To download a protected model, set env vars `HF_USER` and `HF_PASS` to your Hugging Face username and password (or [User Access Token](https://huggingface.co/settings/tokens)). The model's terms must first be accepted on the HF website.
#### GGML models
You can drop these directly into the `models/` folder, making sure that the file name contains `ggml` somewhere and ends in `.bin`.
#### GPT-4chan
<details>
<summary>
Instructions
</summary>
[GPT-4chan](https://huggingface.co/ykilcher/gpt-4chan) has been shut down from Hugging Face, so you need to download it elsewhere. You have two options:
* Torrent: [16-bit](https://archive.org/details/gpt4chan_model_float16) / [32-bit](https://archive.org/details/gpt4chan_model)
* Direct download: [16-bit](https://theswissbay.ch/pdf/_notpdf_/gpt4chan_model_float16/) / [32-bit](https://theswissbay.ch/pdf/_notpdf_/gpt4chan_model/)
The 32-bit version is only relevant if you intend to run the model in CPU mode. Otherwise, you should use the 16-bit version.
After downloading the model, follow these steps:
1. Place the files under `models/gpt4chan_model_float16` or `models/gpt4chan_model`.
2. Place GPT-J 6B's config.json file in that same folder: [config.json](https://huggingface.co/EleutherAI/gpt-j-6B/raw/main/config.json).
3. Download GPT-J 6B's tokenizer files (they will be automatically detected when you attempt to load GPT-4chan):
```
python download-model.py EleutherAI/gpt-j-6B --text-only
```
When you load this model in default or notebook modes, the "HTML" tab will show the generated text in 4chan format.

cd text-generation-webui
python server.py
Then browse to
`http://localhost:7860/?__theme=dark`
