Deploy Falcon-7B with TGI

I do not understand what I am reading: The easiest way of getting started is using the official Docker container. Install Docker following their installation instructions.

Let’s say you want to deploy Falcon-7B Instruct model with TGI. Here is an example on how to do that:

Copied
model=tiiuae/falcon-7b-instruct
volume=$PWD/data # share a volume with the Docker container to avoid downloading weights every run

docker run –gpus all –shm-size 1g -p 8080:80 -v $volume:/data ghcr.io/huggingface/text-generation-inference:1.4 –model-id $model
To use NVIDIA GPUs, you need to install the NVIDIA Container Toolkit. We also recommend using NVIDIA drivers with CUDA version 12.2 or higher.

TGI also supports ROCm-enabled AMD GPUs (only MI210 and MI250 are tested), details are available in the Supported Hardware section and AMD documentation. To launch TGI on ROCm GPUs, please use instead:

Copied
docker run –cap-add=SYS_PTRACE –security-opt seccomp=unconfined –device=/dev/kfd –device=/dev/dri –group-add video –ipc=host –shm-size 1g -p 8080:80 -v $volume:/data ghcr.io/huggingface/text-generation-inference:1.4-rocm –model-id $model
Once TGI is running, you can use the generate endpoint by doing requests. To learn more about how to query the endpoints, check the Consuming TGI section, where we show examples with utility libraries and UIs. Below you can see a simple snippet to query the endpoint.

Copied
import requests

headers = {
“Content-Type”: “application/json”,
}

data = {
‘inputs’: ‘What is Deep Learning?’,
‘parameters’: {
‘max_new_tokens’: 20,
},
}

response = requests.post(‘http://127.0.0.1:8080/generate’, headers=headers, json=data)
print(response.json())
# {‘generated_text’: ‘nnDeep Learning is a subset of Machine Learning that is concerned with the development of algorithms that can’}
To see all possible deploy flags and options, you can use the –help flag. It’s possible to configure the number of shards, quantization, generation parameters, and more.

My command line isnt accepting the varialbe stings
If your command line is not accepting the variable strings, it might be due to issues with the way variables are expanded or quoted. Here are some suggestions to troubleshoot and resolve the issue:

1. **Quoting Variables:**
– Ensure that variables like `$model` and `$volume` are enclosed in double quotes to handle spaces or special characters in the values. For example:
“`bash
docker run –gpus all –shm-size 1g -p 8080:80 -v “$PWD/data”:/data ghcr.io/huggingface/text-generation-inference:1.4 –model-id “$model”
“`

2. **Check Variable Values:**
– Before running the Docker command, echo the variables to verify their values:
“`bash
echo “Model: $model”
echo “Volume: $volume”
“`
– Ensure that the variables have the correct values.

3. **Escape Special Characters:**
– If your variables contain special characters, escape them using backslashes. For example:
“`bash
volume=”$PWD/data with spaces”
docker run –gpus all –shm-size 1g -p 8080:80 -v “$volume”:/data ghcr.io/huggingface/text-generation-inference:1.4 –model-id “$model”
“`

4. **Debugging with `set -x`:**
– Add `set -x` at the beginning of your script or command to enable debugging. This will print each command to the terminal before executing it. It can help identify where the issue is occurring.
“`bash
set -x
docker run –gpus all –shm-size 1g -p 8080:80 -v “$PWD/data”:/data ghcr.io/huggingface/text-generation-inference:1.4 –model-id “$model”
“`

5. **Variable Scope:**
– Ensure that the variables are defined in the same scope where the Docker command is executed. If you are running this in a script, check if the variables are defined within the script.

6. **Docker Command Structure:**
– Make sure the Docker command structure is correct. Verify that there are no typos or missing components in the command.

By addressing these points, you should be able to resolve issues related to variable strings not being accepted on the command line. If the problem persists, please provide more details or error messages for further assistance.
Let’s say you want to deploy Falcon-7B Instruct model with TGI. Here is an example on how to do that:

Copied
model=tiiuae/falcon-7b-instruct
volume=$PWD/data # share a volume with the Docker container to avoid downloading weights every run docker run –cap-add=SYS_PTRACE –security-opt seccomp=unconfined –device=/dev/kfd –device=/dev/dri –group-add video –ipc=host –shm-size 1g -p 8080:80 -v $volume:/data ghcr.io/huggingface/text-generation-inference:1.4-rocm –model-id $model THIS TELL ME NOTHING..I guess the author presumes those using this know the steps, but I do not. Can you help?

Certainly! It seems like the provided example assumes some prior knowledge of Docker and GPU-related configurations. Let me break down the steps for deploying the Falcon-7B Instruct model with TGI using the given example:

1. **Setting Variables:**
– `model=tiiuae/falcon-7b-instruct`: This line sets the Docker image for the Falcon-7B Instruct model. The image is hosted at the specified repository (`tiiuae/falcon-7b-instruct`).

– `volume=$PWD/data`: This line sets the variable `volume` to the current working directory (`$PWD`) followed by the `/data` subdirectory. This is used for sharing a volume between your host machine and the Docker container.

2. **Docker Run Command:**
“`bash
docker run –cap-add=SYS_PTRACE –security-opt seccomp=unconfined –device=/dev/kfd –device=/dev/dri –group-add video –ipc=host –shm-size 1g -p 8080:80 -v $volume:/data ghcr.io/huggingface/text-generation-inference:1.4-rocm –model-id $model
“`
– `–cap-add=SYS_PTRACE`: Adds the capability to trace processes inside the container.

– `–security-opt seccomp=unconfined`: Disables seccomp security profile for the container.

– `–device=/dev/kfd –device=/dev/dri`: These options allow the container to access the `/dev/kfd` and `/dev/dri` devices on the host, which are typically related to GPU access.

– `–group-add video`: Adds the container to the `video` group, which may be necessary for GPU access.

– `–ipc=host`: Shares the IPC (Inter-Process Communication) namespace with the host.

– `–shm-size 1g`: Sets the shared memory size to 1 gigabyte.

– `-p 8080:80`: Maps port 8080 on the host to port 80 in the container.

– `-v $volume:/data`: Mounts the specified volume (current working directory + `/data`) on the host to the `/data` directory in the container.

– `ghcr.io/huggingface/text-generation-inference:1.4-rocm`: Specifies the Docker image to run, which is from the Hugging Face repository and includes Text Generation Inference with ROCm support.

– `–model-id $model`: Specifies the model to be used, which is set by the previously defined `model` variable.

This command essentially runs a Docker container with GPU support, allowing you to deploy the Falcon-7B Instruct model with TGI. The specified options and configurations are important for GPU compatibility and communication between the host and the container. If you encounter any issues or need further clarification on specific aspects, feel free to ask!

The error you’re encountering is due to the PowerShell scripting environment interpreting the syntax incorrectly. In PowerShell, the `$` character is used to denote variables, and when it encounters `$volume:/data`, it tries to interpret `:/data` as part of the variable, which leads to the error.

To fix this issue, you can either use `${volume}:/data` or enclose the entire Docker command in double quotes. Here’s the corrected command:

“`powershell
docker run –cap-add=SYS_PTRACE –security-opt seccomp=unconfined –device=/dev/kfd –device=/dev/dri –group-add video –ipc=host –shm-size 1g -p 8080:80 -v ${volume}:/data ghcr.io/huggingface/text-generation-inference:1.4-rocm –model-id $model
“`

or

“`powershell
docker run “–cap-add=SYS_PTRACE –security-opt seccomp=unconfined –device=/dev/kfd –device=/dev/dri –group-add video –ipc=host –shm-size 1g -p 8080:80 -v $volume:/data ghcr.io/huggingface/text-generation-inference:1.4-rocm –model-id $model”
“`

In the corrected versions, `${volume}` ensures that PowerShell recognizes `volume` as a variable, and the Docker command should be executed without issues. Choose the version that you find more readable or convenient for your use case.

(base) PS D:SarahOnefreestylehfchattext-generation-inference>
It seems like there is still an issue with the syntax. PowerShell doesn’t interpret `${volume}:/data` as intended in this context. Let’s try a different approach using double quotes to ensure proper variable expansion. Please try the following command:

“`powershell
docker run –cap-add=SYS_PTRACE –security-opt seccomp=unconfined –device=/dev/kfd –device=/dev/dri –group-add video –ipc=host –shm-size 1g -p 8080:80 -v “${volume}:/data” ghcr.io/huggingface/text-generation-inference:1.4-rocm –model-id $model
“`

In this version, I’ve enclosed `${volume}:/data` within double quotes to ensure correct interpretation by PowerShell. Please try running this command and let me know if it resolves the issue.

docker: invalid spec: :/data: empty section between colons.
See ‘docker run –help’.
I see the issue. It appears there might be a problem with the variable expansion in PowerShell when defining the volume. Let’s try an alternative approach by using the full path directly instead of relying on the variable expansion. Here’s the modified command:

“`powershell
docker run –cap-add=SYS_PTRACE –security-opt seccomp=unconfined –device=/dev/kfd –device=/dev/dri –group-add video –ipc=host –shm-size 1g -p 8080:80 -v “${PWD}/data:/data” ghcr.io/huggingface/text-generation-inference:1.4-rocm –model-id $model
“`

In this command, I’m using `${PWD}/data` directly to specify the full path of the current working directory followed by `/data`. Please try running this modified command and let me know if it resolves the issue.
>>
docker: Error response from daemon: Ports are not available: exposing port TCP 0.0.0.0:8080 -> 0.0.0.0:0: listen tcp 0.0.0.0:8080: bind: An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions.
(base) PS D:SarahOnefreestylehfchattext-generation-inference>
The error message indicates that the port `8080` is not available, likely because it’s already in use by another process. To resolve this issue, you can choose a different host port that is not currently being used.

For example, you can modify the Docker run command to use a different host port, such as `8081`:

“`powershell
docker run –cap-add=SYS_PTRACE –security-opt seccomp=unconfined –device=/dev/kfd –device=/dev/dri –group-add video –ipc=host –shm-size 1g -p 8081:80 -v “${PWD}/data:/data” ghcr.io/huggingface/text-generation-inference:1.4-rocm –model-id $model
“`

Here, I changed `-p 8080:80` to `-p 8081:80`. This maps port `8081` on your host to port `80` in the Docker container. Adjust the host port as needed, ensuring it is not already in use by another process.

After making this change, try running the Docker command again. If you encounter further issues, please let me know, and we can continue troubleshooting.
I ran make in the server folder
If you ran `make` in the server folder, it likely executed a set of commands specified in the Makefile for that folder. The error you encountered previously might be related to port availability or other issues.

To troubleshoot, you can follow these steps:

1. **Check Running Containers:**
– Run `docker ps` to list the currently running containers. Make sure there are no other containers using the same port, especially `8080`.

2. **Change Host Port:**
– As suggested earlier, try changing the host port to a different value. For example, use `-p 8081:80` instead of `-p 8080:80`.

“`powershell
docker run –cap-add=SYS_PTRACE –security-opt seccomp=unconfined –device=/dev/kfd –device=/dev/dri –group-add video –ipc=host –shm-size 1g -p 8081:80 -v “${PWD}/data:/data” ghcr.io/huggingface/text-generation-inference:1.4-rocm –model-id $model
“`

3. **Check Docker Compose:**
– If you are using Docker Compose, check the `docker-compose.yml` file for port configurations and make sure there are no conflicts.

4. **Stop and Remove Existing Containers:**
– If necessary, stop and remove any existing containers that might be using the same ports.

“`powershell
docker stop
docker rm
“`

5. **Review Makefile:**
– Check the `Makefile` in the server folder for any Docker-related commands. Ensure that the ports and configurations are correct.

6. **Permissions:**
– Ensure that you have the necessary permissions to run Docker commands and access the specified ports.

After making these adjustments, try running the Docker command or `make` again. If you encounter any specific error messages, please provide them for further assistance.

It appears that you have a container with the image `alphacep/kaldi-en:latest` already running, and it is using port `2700`. This might be conflicting with the port you are trying to use for the Hugging Face Text Generation Inference container.

To resolve the issue, you can either stop and remove the existing container using port `2700` or choose a different port for the Text Generation Inference container.

Here are the steps to stop and remove the existing container:

“`powershell
docker stop dreamy_lamport
docker rm dreamy_lamport
“`

After stopping and removing the existing container, you can try running the Text Generation Inference container with the desired port, for example:

“`powershell
docker run –cap-add=SYS_PTRACE –security-opt seccomp=unconfined –device=/dev/kfd –device=/dev/dri –group-add video –ipc=host –shm-size 1g -p 8081:80 -v “${PWD}/data:/data” ghcr.io/huggingface/text-generation-inference:1.4-rocm –model-id $model
“`

In this example, I changed the host port to `8081`. Adjust the port as needed, ensuring it does not conflict with other running containers.

Please try these steps and let me know if it resolves the issue.
