* convert-hf : begin refactoring write_tensor * convert : upgrade to sentencepiece v0.2.0 * convert-hf : remove unused n_dims in extra_*_tensors * convert-hf : simplify MoE weights stacking * convert-hf : flake8 linter doesn't like semicolons * convert-hf : allow unusual model part names For example, loading `model-00001-of-00001.safetensors` now works. * convert-hf : fix stacking MoE expert tensors `torch.stack` and `torch.cat` don't do the same thing. * convert-hf : fix Mamba conversion Tested to work even with a SentencePiece-based tokenizer. * convert : use a string for the SentencePiece tokenizer path * convert-hf : display tensor shape * convert-hf : convert norms to f32 by default * convert-hf : sort model part names `os.listdir` is said to list files in arbitrary order. Sorting the file names should let "model-00009-of-00042.safetensors" be loaded before "model-00010-of-00042.safetensors". * convert-hf : use an ABC for Model again It seems Protocol can't be used as a statically type-checked ABC, because its subclasses also can't be instantiated. (why did it seem to work?) At least there's still a way to throw an error when forgetting to define the `model_arch` property of any registered Model subclasses. * convert-hf : use a plain class for Model, and forbid direct instantiation There are no abstract methods used anyway, so using ABC isn't really necessary. * convert-hf : more consistent formatting of cmdline args * convert-hf : align the message logged for converted tensors * convert-hf : fix Refact conversion * convert-hf : save memory with lazy evaluation * convert-hf : flake8 doesn't like lowercase L as a variable name * convert-hf : remove einops requirement for InternLM2 * convert-hf : faster model parts loading Instead of pre-loading them all into a dict, iterate on the tensors in the model parts progressively as needed in Model.write_tensors Conversion for some architectures relies on checking for the presence of specific tensor names, so for multi-part models, the weight map is read from the relevant json file to quickly get these names up-front. * convert-hf : minor changes for consistency * gguf-py : add tqdm as a dependency It's small, and used for a progress bar in GGUFWriter.write_tensors_to_file |

gguf
This is a Python package for writing binary files in the GGUF (GGML Universal File) format.
See convert-llama-hf-to-gguf.py as an example for its usage.
Installation
pip install gguf
API Examples/Simple Tools
examples/writer.py — Generates example.gguf
in the current directory to demonstrate generating a GGUF file. Note that this file cannot be used as a model.
scripts/gguf-dump.py — Dumps a GGUF file's metadata to the console.
scripts/gguf-set-metadata.py — Allows changing simple metadata values in a GGUF file by key.
scripts/gguf-convert-endian.py — Allows converting the endianness of GGUF files.
scripts/gguf-new-metadata.py — Copies a GGUF file with added/modified/removed metadata values.
Development
Maintainers who participate in development of this package are advised to install it in editable mode:
cd /path/to/llama.cpp/gguf-py
pip install --editable .
Note: This may require to upgrade your Pip installation, with a message saying that editable installation currently requires setup.py
.
In this case, upgrade Pip to the latest:
pip install --upgrade pip
Automatic publishing with CI
There's a GitHub workflow to make a release automatically upon creation of tags in a specified format.
- Bump the version in
pyproject.toml
. - Create a tag named
gguf-vx.x.x
wherex.x.x
is the semantic version number.
git tag -a gguf-v1.0.0 -m "Version 1.0 release"
- Push the tags.
git push origin --tags
Manual publishing
If you want to publish the package manually for any reason, you need to have twine
and build
installed:
pip install build twine
Then, follow these steps to release a new version:
- Bump the version in
pyproject.toml
. - Build the package:
python -m build
- Upload the generated distribution archives:
python -m twine upload dist/*
TODO
- Add tests
- Include conversion scripts as command line entry points in this package.
