Manage embeddings

Requred servers

  • No servers required

Overview

Embeddings models configurations are stored and could be reused. For simplicity the term "embeddings models" will be used as a synonim for embeddings models configurations. Embeddings models could be for local models (run by llama-vscode) and for externally run servers. They have properties: name, local start command (llama-server command to start a server with this model locally), ai model (as required by the provider), endpoint, is key required

Embeddings models configurations could be added/deleted/viewed/selected/deselected/added from huggingface/exported/imported

How to use it

Select "Embeddings models..." from llama-vscode menu

  • Add models
    Enter the requested properties.
    For local models name, local start command and endpoint are required
    For external servers name and endpoint are required
    Use models, which support embeddings, for example Nomic-Embed-Text-V2-GGUF

    Select the model you want to delete from the list and delete it.

  • View
    Select a model from the list to view all the details for this model

  • Selected
    Select a model from the list to select it. If the model is a local one (has a command in local start command) a llama.cpp server with this model will be started. Only one Embeddings model could be selected at a time.

  • Deselect
    Deselect the currently selected model. If the model is local, the llama.cpp server will be started.

  • Add model from huggingface
    Enter search words to find a model from huggingface. If the model is selected it will be automatically downloaded (if not yet done) and a llama.cpp server will be started with it.
