| ## gguf
 | |
| 
 | |
| This is a Python package for writing binary files in the [GGUF](https://github.com/ggerganov/ggml/pull/302)
 | |
| (GGML Universal File) format.
 | |
| 
 | |
| See [convert_hf_to_gguf.py](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/blob/master/convert_hf_to_gguf.py)
 | |
| as an example for its usage.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Installation
 | |
| ```sh
 | |
| pip install gguf
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## API Examples/Simple Tools
 | |
| 
 | |
| [examples/writer.py](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/blob/master/gguf-py/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.
 | |
| 
 | |
| [examples/reader.py](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/blob/master/gguf-py/examples/reader.py) — Extracts and displays key-value pairs and tensor details from a GGUF file in a readable format.
 | |
| 
 | |
| [gguf/scripts/gguf_dump.py](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/blob/master/gguf-py/gguf/scripts/gguf_dump.py) — Dumps a GGUF file's metadata to the console.
 | |
| 
 | |
| [gguf/scripts/gguf_set_metadata.py](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/blob/master/gguf-py/gguf/scripts/gguf_set_metadata.py) — Allows changing simple metadata values in a GGUF file by key.
 | |
| 
 | |
| [gguf/scripts/gguf_convert_endian.py](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/blob/master/gguf-py/gguf/scripts/gguf_convert_endian.py) — Allows converting the endianness of GGUF files.
 | |
| 
 | |
| [gguf/scripts/gguf_new_metadata.py](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/blob/master/gguf-py/gguf/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:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```sh
 | |
| 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:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```sh
 | |
| 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.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 1. Bump the version in `pyproject.toml`.
 | |
| 2. Create a tag named `gguf-vx.x.x` where `x.x.x` is the semantic version number.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```sh
 | |
| git tag -a gguf-v1.0.0 -m "Version 1.0 release"
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| 3. Push the tags.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```sh
 | |
| 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:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```sh
 | |
| pip install build twine
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| Then, follow these steps to release a new version:
 | |
| 
 | |
| 1. Bump the version in `pyproject.toml`.
 | |
| 2. Build the package:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```sh
 | |
| python -m build
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| 3. Upload the generated distribution archives:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```sh
 | |
| python -m twine upload dist/*
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Run Unit Tests
 | |
| 
 | |
| From root of this repository you can run this command to run all the unit tests
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```bash
 | |
| python -m unittest discover ./gguf-py -v
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## TODO
 | |
| - [ ] Include conversion scripts as command line entry points in this package.
