Project description <!-- Describe the project a little: --The free, Open Source OpenAI alternative. Self-hosted, community-driven and local-first. Drop-in replacement for OpenAI running on consumer-grade hardware. No GPU required. Runs ggml, gguf, GPTQ, onnx, TF compatible models: llama, llama2, rwkv, whisper, vicuna, koala, cerebras, falcon, dolly, starcoder, and many others Metadata homepage URL: source URL: license: mit platforms: linux Priorities Add a :+1: [reaction] to [issues you find important].

Uses a large amount of dependencies as well as many different quantized models. So it might be a good start to first take stock of which are already supported. For now a work around would be to use the docker image.
Would definitely love to have this! I'm running it in a docker container on Linux but would prefer to use a Nix package native on the host + not have to do the manual build step on Mac
There are some discussions in LocalAI on how to build it with a flake Not too much success yet...
I packaged local-ai in my repository If somebody want to migrate the package to nixpkgs, I could maintain the package. The cuda support switch should be handled in a more nixpkgs way to configure.
would it make sense to move it to ? nixified-ai has a binary cache and this could help provide a unified way to deal with nvidia/cuda. I have no relationship with nixified whatsoever but that seemed like a good destination.
I've given your package a test and it looks like it's working with this base systemd service that I've written!
Thanks for the hint, but I do not see a benefit to move to nixified-ai. The module looks similar to mine. I will put my version also upstream.
