A LLM operator generates answer given prompt in messages using a large language model or service.
This operator uses a pretrained [Llama-2](https://ai.meta.com/llama) to generate response.
By default, it will download the model file from [HuggingFace](https://huggingface.co/TheBloke)
and then run the model with [Llama-cpp](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp).
This operator will automatically install and run model with llama-cpp.
If the automatic installation fails in your environment, please refer to [llama-cpp-python](https://github.com/abetlen/llama-cpp-python) for instructions of manual installation.
<br/>
## Code Example
Use the default model to continue the conversation from given messages.
*Write a pipeline with explicit inputs/outputs name specifications:*
history=[('Who won the world series in 2020?', 'The Los Angeles Dodgers won the World Series in 2020.')]
question = 'Where was it played?'
answer = p(question, [], history).get()[0]
```
*Write a [retrieval-augmented generation pipeline](https://towhee.io/tasks/detail/pipeline/retrieval-augmented-generation) with explicit inputs/outputs name specifications:*
```python
from towhee import pipe, ops
temp = '''Use the following pieces of context to answer the question at the end.
docs.append('Towhee is a cutting-edge framework designed to streamline the processing of unstructured data through the use of Large Language Model (LLM) based pipeline orchestration.')
Create the operator via the following factory method:
***LLM.Llama_2(model_name_or_file: str)***
**Parameters:**
***model_name_or_file***: *str*
The model name or path to the model file in string, defaults to 'llama-2-7b-chat'.
If model name is in `supported_model_names`, it will download corresponding model file from HuggingFace models.
You can also use the local path of a model file, which can be ran by llama-cpp-python.
***\*\*kwargs***
Other model parameters such as temperature, max_tokens.
<br/>
## Interface
The operator takes a piece of text in string as input.
It returns answer in json.
***\_\_call\_\_(txt)***
**Parameters:**
***messages***: *list*
A list of messages to set up chat.
Must be a list of dictionaries with key value from "system", "question", "answer". For example, [{"question": "a past question?", "answer": "a past answer."}, {"question": "current question?"}]
**Returns**:
*answer: str*
The answer generated.
<br/>
***supported_model_names()***
**Returns**:
A dictionary of supported models with model name as key and huggingface hub id & model filename as value.
