Portus: NL queries for data

Setup connection

from sqlalchemy import create_engine

engine = create_engine(
    "postgresql://readonly_role:>sU9y95R([e-mail]/netflix"
)

Create portus session

llm = ChatOpenAI(model="gpt-4o-mini", temperature=0)
session = portus.open_session(llm)
session.add_db(engine)

Query data

session.ask("list all german shows").df()

Local models

Portus can be used with local LLMs either using ollama or OpenAI API compatible servers (LM Studio, llama.cpp, etc.).

Ollama

1. Install ollama for your operating system and make sure it is running.
2. Use an LLMConfig with name of the form ollama:model_name. For an example see qwen3-8b-ollama.yaml.

The model will be downloaded automatically if it doesn't already exist. Alternatively, ollama pull model_name to download the model manually.

OpenAI compatible servers

You can use any OAI compatible server by setting api_base_url in the LLMConfig. For an example, see qwen3-8b.yaml.

Examples of OAI compatible servers:

• LM Studio - Recommended for macOS (LMX engine for M-based chips, supports the OpenAI Responses API).
• ollama - Run with OLLAMA_HOST=127.0.0.1:8080 ollama serve. We recommend using ollama directly, as described above.
• llama.cpp using llama-server
• vLLM
• etc.
