Note
ModelFusion is in its initial development phase. Until version 1.0 there may be breaking changes, because I am still exploring the API design. Feedback and suggestions are welcome.
Introduction
ModelFusion is a library for building AI apps, chatbots, and agents. It provides abstractions for AI models, vector indices, and tools.
- Type inference and validation: ModelFusion uses TypeScript and Zod to infer types wherever possible and to validate model responses.
- Flexibility and control: AI application development can be complex and unique to each project. With ModelFusion, you have complete control over the prompts and model settings, and you can access the raw responses from the models quickly to build what you need.
- No chains and predefined prompts: Use the concepts provided by JavaScript (variables, functions, etc.) and explicit prompts to build applications you can easily understand and control. Not black magic.
- Multimodal Support: Beyond just LLMs, ModelFusion encompasses a diverse array of models including text generation, text-to-speech, speech-to-text, and image generation, allowing you to build multifaceted AI applications with ease.
- Integrated support features: Essential features like logging, retries, throttling, tracing, and error handling are built-in, helping you focus more on building your application.
Quick Install
npm install modelfusion
You need to install zod
and a matching version of zod-to-json-schema
(peer dependencies):
npm install zod zod-to-json-schema
Or use a template: ModelFusion terminal app starter
Usage Examples
You can provide API keys for the different integrations using environment variables (e.g., OPENAI_API_KEY
) or pass them into the model constructors as options.
Generate Text
Generate text using a language model and a prompt. You can stream the text if it is supported by the model. You can use prompt formats to change the prompt format of a model.
generateText
const text = await generateText(
new OpenAITextGenerationModel({ model: "text-davinci-003" }),
"Write a short story about a robot learning to love:\n\n"
);
streamText
const textStream = await streamText(
new OpenAIChatModel({
model: "gpt-3.5-turbo",
maxCompletionTokens: 1000,
}),
[
OpenAIChatMessage.system("You are a story writer."),
OpenAIChatMessage.user("Write a story about a robot learning to love"),
]
);
for await (const textFragment of textStream) {
process.stdout.write(textFragment);
}
Prompt Format
Prompt format lets you use higher level prompt structures (such as instruction or chat prompts) for different models.
const text = await generateText(
new LlamaCppTextGenerationModel({
contextWindowSize: 4096, // Llama 2 context window size
maxCompletionTokens: 1000,
}).withPromptFormat(Llama2InstructionPromptFormat()),
{
system: "You are a story writer.",
instruction: "Write a short story about a robot learning to love.",
}
);
const textStream = await streamText(
new OpenAIChatModel({
model: "gpt-3.5-turbo",
}).withPromptFormat(OpenAIChatChatPromptFormat()),
[
{ system: "You are a celebrated poet." },
{ user: "Write a short story about a robot learning to love." },
{ ai: "Once upon a time, there was a robot who learned to love." },
{ user: "That's a great start!" },
]
);
Metadata and original responses
ModelFusion model functions return rich results that include the original response and metadata when you call .asFullResponse()
before resolving the promise.
// access the full response and the metadata:
// the response type is specific to the model that's being used
const { output, response, metadata } = await generateText(
new OpenAITextGenerationModel({
model: "text-davinci-003",
maxCompletionTokens: 1000,
n: 2, // generate 2 completions
}),
"Write a short story about a robot learning to love:\n\n"
).asFullResponse();
for (const choice of response.choices) {
console.log(choice.text);
}
console.log(`Duration: ${metadata.durationInMs}ms`);
Generate JSON
Generate JSON value that matches a schema.
const value = await generateJson(
new OpenAIChatModel({
model: "gpt-3.5-turbo",
temperature: 0,
maxCompletionTokens: 50,
}),
{
name: "sentiment" as const,
description: "Write the sentiment analysis",
schema: z.object({
sentiment: z
.enum(["positive", "neutral", "negative"])
.describe("Sentiment."),
}),
},
OpenAIChatFunctionPrompt.forSchemaCurried([
OpenAIChatMessage.system(
"You are a sentiment evaluator. " +
"Analyze the sentiment of the following product review:"
),
OpenAIChatMessage.user(
"After I opened the package, I was met by a very unpleasant smell " +
"that did not disappear even after washing. Never again!"
),
])
);
Generate JSON or Text
Generate JSON (or text as a fallback) using a prompt and multiple schemas. It either matches one of the schemas or is text reponse.
const { schema, value, text } = await generateJsonOrText(
new OpenAIChatModel({
model: "gpt-3.5-turbo",
maxCompletionTokens: 1000,
}),
[
{
name: "getCurrentWeather" as const, // mark 'as const' for type inference
description: "Get the current weather in a given location",
schema: z.object({
location: z
.string()
.describe("The city and state, e.g. San Francisco, CA"),
unit: z.enum(["celsius", "fahrenheit"]).optional(),
}),
},
{
name: "getContactInformation" as const,
description: "Get the contact information for a given person",
schema: z.object({
name: z.string().describe("The name of the person"),
}),
},
],
OpenAIChatFunctionPrompt.forSchemasCurried([OpenAIChatMessage.user(query)])
);
Tools
Tools are functions that can be executed by an AI model. They are useful for building chatbots and agents.
Create Tool
A tool is a function with a name, a description, and a schema for the input parameters.
const calculator = new Tool({
name: "calculator",
description: "Execute a calculation",
inputSchema: z.object({
a: z.number().describe("The first number."),
b: z.number().describe("The second number."),
operator: z.enum(["+", "-", "*", "/"]).describe("The operator."),
}),
execute: async ({ a, b, operator }) => {
switch (operator) {
case "+":
return a + b;
case "-":
return a - b;
case "*":
return a * b;
case "/":
return a / b;
default:
throw new Error(`Unknown operator: ${operator}`);
}
},
});
useTool
The model determines the parameters for the tool from the prompt and then executes it.
const { tool, parameters, result } = await useTool(
new OpenAIChatModel({ model: "gpt-3.5-turbo" }),
calculator,
OpenAIChatFunctionPrompt.forToolCurried([
OpenAIChatMessage.user("What's fourteen times twelve?"),
])
);
useToolOrGenerateText
The model determines which tool to use and its parameters from the prompt and then executes it. Text is generated as a fallback.
const { tool, parameters, result, text } = await useToolOrGenerateText(
new OpenAIChatModel({ model: "gpt-3.5-turbo" }),
[calculator /* and other tools... */],
OpenAIChatFunctionPrompt.forToolsCurried([
OpenAIChatMessage.user("What's fourteen times twelve?"),
])
);
Transcribe Speech
Turn speech (audio) into text.
const transcription = await transcribe(
new OpenAITranscriptionModel({ model: "whisper-1" }),
{
type: "mp3",
data: await fs.promises.readFile("data/test.mp3"),
}
);
Synthesize Speech
Turn text into speech (audio).
// `speech` is a Buffer with MP3 audio data
const speech = await synthesizeSpeech(
new ElevenLabsSpeechSynthesisModel({
voice: "ErXwobaYiN019PkySvjV",
}),
"Hello, World!"
);
Generate Image
Generate a base64-encoded image from a prompt.
const image = await generateImage(
new OpenAIImageGenerationModel({ size: "512x512" }),
"the wicked witch of the west in the style of early 19th century painting"
);
Embed Text
Create embeddings for text. Embeddings are vectors that represent the meaning of the text.
const embeddings = await embedTexts(
new OpenAITextEmbeddingModel({ model: "text-embedding-ada-002" }),
[
"At first, Nox didn't know what to do with the pup.",
"He keenly observed and absorbed everything around him, from the birds in the sky to the trees in the forest.",
]
);
Tokenize Text
Split text into tokens and reconstruct the text from tokens.
const tokenizer = new TikTokenTokenizer({ model: "gpt-4" });
const text = "At first, Nox didn't know what to do with the pup.";
const tokenCount = await countTokens(tokenizer, text);
const tokens = await tokenizer.tokenize(text);
const tokensAndTokenTexts = await tokenizer.tokenizeWithTexts(text);
const reconstructedText = await tokenizer.detokenize(tokens);
Upserting and Retrieving Text Chunks from Vector Indices
const texts = [
"A rainbow is an optical phenomenon that can occur under certain meteorological conditions.",
"It is caused by refraction, internal reflection and dispersion of light in water droplets resulting in a continuous spectrum of light appearing in the sky.",
// ...
];
const vectorIndex = new MemoryVectorIndex<TextChunk>();
const embeddingModel = new OpenAITextEmbeddingModel({
model: "text-embedding-ada-002",
});
// update an index - usually done as part of an ingestion process:
await upsertTextChunks({
vectorIndex,
embeddingModel,
chunks: texts.map((text) => ({ text })),
});
// retrieve text chunks from the vector index - usually done at query time:
const { chunks } = await retrieveTextChunks(
new SimilarTextChunksFromVectorIndexRetriever({
vectorIndex,
embeddingModel,
maxResults: 3,
similarityThreshold: 0.8,
}),
"rainbow and water droplets"
);
