SimpleChat

This folder provides a complete implementation of a simple chat app based on WebLLM. To try it out, you can do the following steps under this folder

npm install
npm start

Note if you would like to hack WebLLM core package. You can change web-llm dependencies as "file:../..", and follow the build from source instruction in the project to build webllm locally. This option is only recommended if you would like to hack WebLLM core package.

If you are using the Local Server option, first start the local server using the steps outlined here.

Due to the differences in command-line tools between Unix/Linux and Windows systems, special adaptation is necessary for Windows. Unix/Linux systems natively support commands like cp for file operations, which are not directly available in Windows. To ensure cross-platform compatibility, we use a Node.js script for file copying in Windows.

Steps for Windows Users

  1. Create a Node.js Script File:

    • In the examples\simple-chat directory, create a file named copy-config.js.
    • Add the following code to handle file copying:
      const fs = require('fs');
      // Copy file
      fs.copyFileSync('src/gh-config.js', 'src/app-config.js');
  2. Modify package.json:

    • In the scripts section of your package.json, replace Unix-style cp commands with our new Node.js script. For example:
      "scripts": {
          "start": "node copy-config.js && parcel src/llm_chat.html --port 8888",
          "mlc-local": "node copy-config.js && parcel src/llm_chat.html --port 8888",
          "build": "node copy-config.js && parcel build src/llm_chat.html --dist-dir lib --no-content-hash"
      },
  3. Run the Application:

    • Save your changes and run npm start in CMD or PowerShell to start the application.
