Quick Start

Basic Usage

using SpongeEngine.KoboldSharp;

// Configure the client
var options = new KoboldSharpClientOptions
{
    BaseUrl = "http://localhost:5001",
    // Optional client-side settings
    MultiplayerEnabled = false,
    WebSearchEnabled = false
};

// Create client instance
using var client = new KoboldSharpClient(options);

// Generate completion
var request = new KoboldSharpRequest
{
    Prompt = "Write a short story about a robot:",
    MaxLength = 200,
    Temperature = 0.7f,
    TopP = 0.9f
};

var response = await client.GenerateAsync(request);
Console.WriteLine(response.Results[0].Text);

// Stream completion
await foreach (var token in client.GenerateStreamAsync(request))
{
    Console.Write(token);
}

Configuration

Client Options

var options = new KoboldSharpClientOptions
{
    // Base configuration

};

Error Handling

try
{
    var response = await client.GenerateAsync(request);
}
catch (LlmSharpException ex)
{
    Console.WriteLine($"Generation error: {ex.Message}");
    if (ex.StatusCode.HasValue)
    {
        Console.WriteLine($"Status code: {ex.StatusCode}");
    }
    if (ex.ResponseContent != null)
    {
        Console.WriteLine($"Response content: {ex.ResponseContent}");
    }
}

Logging

The client supports Microsoft.Extensions.Logging:

ILogger logger = LoggerFactory
    .Create(builder => builder
        .AddConsole()
        .SetMinimumLevel(LogLevel.Debug))
    .CreateLogger<KoboldSharpClient>();

var client = new KoboldSharpClient(options, logger);

Testing

To run the tests:

dotnet test

Configure test environment:

Environment.SetEnvironmentVariable("KOBOLDCPP_BASE_URL", "http://localhost:5001");
