DEFAULT_MIN_BATCH_SIZE 1 int Batch size for the first request, which will be multiplied by the growth factor every subsequent request.
DEFAULT_BATCH_SIZE_GROWTH_FACTOR 3 float Growth factor for dynamic batch size.
The way this works is that the first request will have a batch size of DEFAULT_MIN_BATCH_SIZE, and each subsequent request will have a batch size of previous_batch_size * DEFAULT_BATCH_SIZE_GROWTH_FACTOR. This will continue until the batch size reaches DEFAULT_BATCH_SIZE. E.g. for the default values, the batch sizes will be 1, 3, 9, 27, 50, 50, 50, .... You can also specify this per request, with inputs max_batch_size, min_batch_size, and batch_size_growth_factor. This has nothing to do with vLLM's internal batching, but rather the number of tokens sent in each HTTP request from the worker
OpenAI Settings
RAW_OPENAI_OUTPUT 1 boolean as int Enables raw OpenAI SSE format string output when streaming. Required to be enabled (which it is by default) for OpenAI compatibility.
OPENAI_SERVED_MODEL_NAME_OVERRIDE None str Overrides the name of the served model from model repo/path to specified name, which you will then be able to use the value for the model parameter when making OpenAI requests
OPENAI_RESPONSE_ROLE assistant str Role of the LLM's Response in OpenAI Chat Completions.
Serverless Settings
MAX_CONCURRENCY 300 int Max concurrent requests per worker. vLLM has an internal queue, so you don't have to worry about limiting by VRAM, this is for improving scaling/load balancing efficiency
DISABLE_LOG_STATS False bool Enables or disables vLLM stats logging.
DISABLE_LOG_REQUESTS False bool Enables or disables vLLM request logging.

Tip

If you are facing issues when using Mixtral 8x7B, Quantized models, or handling unusual models/architectures, try setting TRUST_REMOTE_CODE to 1.

Option 2: Build Docker Image with Model Inside

To build an image with the model baked in, you must specify the following docker arguments when building the image.

Prerequisites

  • RunPod Account
  • Docker

Arguments:

  • Required
    • MODEL_NAME
  • Optional
    • MODEL_REVISION: Model revision to load (default: main).
    • BASE_PATH: Storage directory where huggingface cache and model will be located. (default: /runpod-volume, which will utilize network storage if you attach it or create a local directory within the image if you don't. If your intention is to bake the model into the image, you should set this to something like /models to make sure there are no issues if you were to accidentally attach network storage.)
    • QUANTIZATION
    • WORKER_CUDA_VERSION: 12.1.0 (12.1.0 is recommended for optimal performance).
    • TOKENIZER_NAME: Tokenizer repository if you would like to use a different tokenizer than the one that comes with the model. (default: None, which uses the model's tokenizer)
    • TOKENIZER_REVISION: Tokenizer revision to load (default: main).

For the remaining settings, you may apply them as environment variables when running the container. Supported environment variables are listed in the Environment Variables section.

Example: Building an image with OpenChat-3.5

sudo docker build -t username/image:tag --build-arg MODEL_NAME="openchat/openchat_3.5" --build-arg BASE_PATH="/models" .
(Optional) Including Huggingface Token

If the model you would like to deploy is private or gated, you will need to include it during build time as a Docker secret, which will protect it from being exposed in the image and on DockerHub.

  1. Enable Docker BuildKit (required for secrets).
export DOCKER_BUILDKIT=1
  1. Export your Hugging Face token as an environment variable
export HF_TOKEN="your_token_here"
  1. Add the token as a secret when building
docker build -t username/image:tag --secret id=HF_TOKEN --build-arg MODEL_NAME="openchat/openchat_3.5" .

Usage: OpenAI Compatibility

The vLLM Worker is fully compatible with OpenAI's API, and you can use it with any OpenAI Codebase by changing only 3 lines in total. The supported routes are Chat Completions and Models - with both streaming and non-streaming.

Modifying your OpenAI Codebase to use your deployed vLLM Worker

Python (similar to Node.js, etc.):

  1. When initializing the OpenAI Client in your code, change the api_key to your RunPod API Key and the base_url to your RunPod Serverless Endpoint URL in the following format: https://api.runpod.ai/v2/<YOUR ENDPOINT ID>/openai/v1, filling in your deployed endpoint ID. For example, if your Endpoint ID is abc1234, the URL would be https://api.runpod.ai/v2/abc1234/openai/v1.

    • Before:
    from openai import OpenAI
    
    client = OpenAI(api_key=os.environ.get("OPENAI_API_KEY"))
    • After:
    from openai import OpenAI
    
    client = OpenAI(
        api_key=os.environ.get("RUNPOD_API_KEY"),
        base_url="https://api.runpod.ai/v2/<YOUR ENDPOINT ID>/openai/v1",
    )
  2. Change the model parameter to your deployed model's name whenever using Completions or Chat Completions.

    • Before:
    response = client.chat.completions.create(
        model="gpt-3.5-turbo",
        messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Why is RunPod the best platform?"}],
        temperature=0,
        max_tokens=100,
    )
    • After:
    response = client.chat.completions.create(
        model="<YOUR DEPLOYED MODEL REPO/NAME>",
        messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Why is RunPod the best platform?"}],
        temperature=0,
        max_tokens=100,
    )

Using http requests:

  1. Change the Authorization header to your RunPod API Key and the url to your RunPod Serverless Endpoint URL in the following format: https://api.runpod.ai/v2/<YOUR ENDPOINT ID>/openai/v1
    • Before:
    curl https://api.openai.com/v1/chat/completions \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer $OPENAI_API_KEY" \
    -d '{
    "model": "gpt-4",
    "messages": [
      {
        "role": "user",
        "content": "Why is RunPod the best platform?"
      }
    ],
    "temperature": 0,
    "max_tokens": 100
    }'
    • After:
    curl https://api.runpod.ai/v2/<YOUR ENDPOINT ID>/openai/v1/chat/completions \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer <YOUR OPENAI API KEY>" \
    -d '{
    "model": "<YOUR DEPLOYED MODEL REPO/NAME>",
    "messages": [
      {
        "role": "user",
        "content": "Why is RunPod the best platform?"
      }
    ],
    "temperature": 0,
    "max_tokens": 100
    }'

OpenAI Request Input Parameters:

When using the chat completion feature of the vLLM Serverless Endpoint Worker, you can customize your requests with the following parameters:

Chat Completions [RECOMMENDED]

Supported Chat Completions Inputs and Descriptions
Parameter Type Default Value Description
messages Union[str, List[Dict[str, str]]] List of messages, where each message is a dictionary with a role and content. The model's chat template will be applied to the messages automatically, so the model must have one or it should be specified as CUSTOM_CHAT_TEMPLATE env var.
model str The model repo that you've deployed on your RunPod Serverless Endpoint. If you are unsure what the name is or are baking the model in, use the guide to get the list of available models in the Examples: Using your RunPod endpoint with OpenAI section
temperature Optional[float] 0.7 Float that controls the randomness of the sampling. Lower values make the model more deterministic, while higher values make the model more random. Zero means greedy sampling.

length_penalty Optional[float] 1.0 Float that penalizes sequences based on their length. Used in beam search..
include_stop_str_in_output Optional[bool] False Whether to include the stop strings in output text. Defaults to False.

Examples: Using your RunPod endpoint with OpenAI

First, initialize the OpenAI Client with your RunPod API Key and Endpoint URL:

from openai import OpenAI
import os

# Initialize the OpenAI Client with your RunPod API Key and Endpoint URL
client = OpenAI(
    api_key=os.environ.get("RUNPOD_API_KEY"),
    base_url="https://api.runpod.ai/v2/<YOUR ENDPOINT ID>/openai/v1",
)

Chat Completions:

This is the format used for GPT-4 and focused on instruction-following and chat. Examples of Open Source chat/instruct models include meta-llama/Llama-2-7b-chat-hf, mistralai/Mixtral-8x7B-Instruct-v0.1, openchat/openchat-3.5-0106, NousResearch/Nous-Hermes-2-Mistral-7B-DPO and more. However, if your model is a completion-style model with no chat/instruct fine-tune and/or does not have a chat template, you can still use this if you provide a chat template with the environment variable CUSTOM_CHAT_TEMPLATE.

  • Streaming:
    # Create a chat completion stream
    response_stream = client.chat.completions.create(
        model="<YOUR DEPLOYED MODEL REPO/NAME>",
        messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Why is RunPod the best platform?"}],
        temperature=0,
        max_tokens=100,
        stream=True,
    )
    # Stream the response
    for response in response_stream:
        print(chunk.choices[0].delta.content or "", end="", flush=True)
  • Non-Streaming:
    # Create a chat completion
    response = client.chat.completions.create(
        model="<YOUR DEPLOYED MODEL REPO/NAME>",
        messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Why is RunPod the best platform?"}],
        temperature=0,
        max_tokens=100,
    )
    # Print the response
    print(response.choices[0].message.content)

Getting a list of names for available models:

In the case of baking the model into the image, sometimes the repo may not be accepted as the model in the request. In this case, you can list the available models as shown below and use that name.

models_response = client.models.list()
list_of_models = [model.id for model in models_response]
print(list_of_models)

Usage: Standard (Non-OpenAI)

ignore_eos bool False Whether to ignore the End-Of-Sequence token and continue generating tokens after its generation.
max_tokens int 16 Maximum number of tokens to generate per output sequence.
skip_special_tokens bool True Whether to skip special tokens in the output.
spaces_between_special_tokens bool True Whether to add spaces between special tokens in the output.

Text Input Formats

You may either use a prompt or a list of messages as input.

  1. prompt The prompt string can be any string, and the model's chat template will not be applied to it unless apply_chat_template is set to true, in which case it will be treated as a user message.

    Example:

    "prompt": "..."
  2. messages Your list can contain any number of messages, and each message usually can have any role from the following list:

    • user
    • assistant
    • system

    However, some models may have different roles, so you should check the model's chat template to see which roles are required.

    The model's chat template will be applied to the messages automatically, so the model must have one.

    Example:

    "messages": [
        {
          "role": "system",
          "content": "..."
        },
        {
          "role": "user",
          "content": "..."
        },
        {
          "role": "assistant",
          "content": "..."
        }
      ]

Worker Config

The worker config is a JSON file that is used to build the form that helps users configure their serverless endpoint on the RunPod Web Interface.

Note: This is a new feature and only works for workers that use one model

Writing your worker-config.json

The JSON consists of two main parts, schema and versions.

  • schema: Here you specify the form fields that will be displayed to the user.
    • env_var_name: The name of the environment variable that is being set using the form field.
    • value: This is the default value of the form field. It will be shown in the UI as such unless the user changes it.
    • title: This is the title of the form field in the UI.
    • description: This is the description of the form field in the UI.
    • required: This is a boolean that specifies if the form field is required.
    • type: This is the type of the form field. Options are:
      • text: Environment variable is a string so user inputs text in form field.
      • select: User selects one option from the dropdown. You must provide the options key value pair after type if using this.
      • toggle: User toggles between true and false.
      • number: User inputs a number in the form field.
    • options: Specify the options the user can select from if the type is select. DO NOT include this unless the type is select.
  • versions: This is where you call the form fields specified in schema and organize them into categories.
    • imageName: This is the name of the Docker image that will be used to run the serverless endpoint.
    • minimumCudaVersion: This is the minimum CUDA version that is required to run the serverless endpoint.
    • categories: This is where you call the keys of the form fields specified in schema and organize them into categories. Each category is a toggle list of forms on the Web UI.
      • title: This is the title of the category in the UI.
      • settings: This is the array of settings schemas specified in schema associated with the category.

Example of schema

{
  "schema": {
    "TOKENIZER": {
      "env_var_name": "TOKENIZER",
      "value": "",
      "title": "Tokenizer",
      "description": "Name or path of the Hugging Face tokenizer to use.",
      "required": false,
      "type": "text"
    }, 
    "TOKENIZER_MODE": {
      "env_var_name": "TOKENIZER_MODE",
      "value": "auto",
      "title": "Tokenizer Mode",
      "description": "The tokenizer mode.",
      "required": false,
      "type": "select",
      "options": [
        { "value": "auto", "label": "auto" },
        { "value": "slow", "label": "slow" }
      ]
    },
    ...
  }
}

Example of versions

{
  "versions": {
    "0.5.4": {
      "imageName": "runpod/worker-v1-vllm:v1.2.0stable-cuda12.1.0",
      "minimumCudaVersion": "12.1",
      "categories": [
        {
          "title": "LLM Settings",
          "settings": [
            "TOKENIZER", "TOKENIZER_MODE", "OTHER_SETTINGS_SCHEMA_KEYS_YOU_HAVE_SPECIFIED_0", ...
          ]
        },
        {
          "title": "Tokenizer Settings",
          "settings": [
            "OTHER_SETTINGS_SCHEMA_KEYS_0", "OTHER_SETTINGS_SCHEMA_KEYS_1", ...
          ]
        },
        ...
      ]
    }
  }
}
