Installation

pip install locallab-client
# or
poetry add locallab-client

Quick Start

import asyncio
from locallab_client import LocalLabClient

async def main():
    # Initialize client
    client = LocalLabClient({
        "base_url": "http://localhost:8000",
        "api_key": "your-api-key",  # Optional
    })

    try:
        # Basic generation
        response = await client.generate("Hello, how are you?")
        print(response.response)
    finally:
        await client.close()

if __name__ == "__main__":
    asyncio.run(main())

Usage Examples

Text Generation

# Basic generation
response = await client.generate("Hello, how are you?")
print(response.response)

# Generation with options
response = await client.generate("Hello", {
    "temperature": 0.7,
    "max_length": 100,
})

# Streaming generation
async for token in client.stream_generate("Tell me a story"):
    print(token, end="", flush=True)

Chat Completion

messages = [
    {"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful assistant."},
    {"role": "user", "content": "What is the capital of France?"},
]

response = await client.chat(messages)
print(response.choices[0].message.content)

Batch Processing

prompts = [
    "What is 2+2?",
    "Who wrote Romeo and Juliet?",
    "What is the speed of light?",
]

response = await client.batch_generate(prompts)
for i, answer in enumerate(response.responses, 1):
    print(f"{i}. {answer}")

Model Management

# List available models
models = await client.list_models()
print(models)

# Load a specific model
await client.load_model("mistral-7b")

# Get current model info
current_model = await client.get_current_model()
print(current_model)

System Monitoring

# Get system information
system_info = await client.get_system_info()
print(f"CPU Usage: {system_info.cpu_usage}%")
print(f"Memory Usage: {system_info.memory_usage}%")
if system_info.gpu_info:
    print(f"GPU: {system_info.gpu_info.device}")

# Check system health
is_healthy = await client.health_check()
print(is_healthy)

WebSocket Connection

# Connect to WebSocket
await client.connect_ws()

# Subscribe to messages
async def message_handler(data):
    print("Received:", data)

await client.on_message(message_handler)

# Disconnect when done
await client.disconnect_ws()
