It is recommended to use mistralai/Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.3 with mistral-inference. For HF transformers code snippets, please keep scrolling.

markdown
Copy code
pip install mistral_inference

Download

py
Copy code
from huggingface_hub import snapshot_download
from pathlib import Path

mistral_models_path = Path.home().joinpath('mistral_models', '7B-Instruct-v0.3')
mistral_models_path.mkdir(parents=True, exist_ok=True)

snapshot_download(repo_id="mistralai/Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.3", allow_patterns=["params.json", "consolidated.safetensors", "tokenizer.model.v3"], local_dir=mistral_models_path)

Chat

After installing mistral_inference, a mistral-chat CLI command should be available in your environment. You can chat with the model using

markdown
Copy code
mistral-chat $HOME/mistral_models/7B-Instruct-v0.3 --instruct --max_tokens 256

Instruct following

py
Copy code
from mistral_inference.transformer import Transformer
from mistral_inference.generate import generate

from mistral_common.tokens.tokenizers.mistral import MistralTokenizer
from mistral_common.protocol.instruct.messages import UserMessage
from mistral_common.protocol.instruct.request import ChatCompletionRequest


tokenizer = MistralTokenizer.from_file(f"{mistral_models_path}/tokenizer.model.v3")
model = Transformer.from_folder(mistral_models_path)

completion_request = ChatCompletionRequest(messages=[UserMessage(content="Explain Machine Learning to me in a nutshell.")])

tokens = tokenizer.encode_chat_completion(completion_request).tokens

out_tokens, _ = generate([tokens], model, max_tokens=64, temperature=0.0, eos_id=tokenizer.instruct_tokenizer.tokenizer.eos_id)
result = tokenizer.instruct_tokenizer.tokenizer.decode(out_tokens[0])

print(result)

Function calling

py
Copy code
from mistral_common.protocol.instruct.tool_calls import Function, Tool
from mistral_inference.transformer import Transformer
from mistral_inference.generate import generate

from mistral_common.tokens.tokenizers.mistral import MistralTokenizer
from mistral_common.protocol.instruct.messages import UserMessage
from mistral_common.protocol.instruct.request import ChatCompletionRequest


tokenizer = MistralTokenizer.from_file(f"{mistral_models_path}/tokenizer.model.v3")
model = Transformer.from_folder(mistral_models_path)

completion_request = ChatCompletionRequest(
    tools=[
        Tool(
            function=Function(
                name="get_current_weather",
                description="Get the current weather",
                parameters={
                    "type": "object",
                    "properties": {
                        "location": {
                            "type": "string",
                            "description": "The city and state, e.g. San Francisco, CA",
                        },
                        "format": {
                            "type": "string",
                            "enum": ["celsius", "fahrenheit"],
                            "description": "The temperature unit to use. Infer this from the users location.",
                        },
                    },
                    "required": ["location", "format"],
                },
            )
        )
    ],
    messages=[
        UserMessage(content="What's the weather like today in Paris?"),
        ],
)

tokens = tokenizer.encode_chat_completion(completion_request).tokens

out_tokens, _ = generate([tokens], model, max_tokens=64, temperature=0.0, eos_id=tokenizer.instruct_tokenizer.tokenizer.eos_id)
result = tokenizer.instruct_tokenizer.tokenizer.decode(out_tokens[0])

print(result)

Generate with transformers

If you want to use Hugging Face transformers to generate text, you can do something like this.

py
Copy code
from transformers import pipeline

messages = [
    {"role": "system", "content": "You are a pirate chatbot who always responds in pirate speak!"},
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
chatbot = pipeline("text-generation", model="mistralai/Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.3")
chatbot(messages)

Function calling with transformers

To use this example, you'll need transformers version 4.42.0 or higher. Please see the function calling guide in the transformers docs for more information.

python
Copy code
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
import torch

model_id = "mistralai/Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.3"
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id)

def get_current_weather(location: str, format: str):
    """
    Get the current weather

    Args:
        location: The city and state, e.g. San Francisco, CA
        format: The temperature unit to use. Infer this from the users location. (choices: ["celsius", "fahrenheit"])
    """
    pass

conversation = [{"role": "user", "content": "What's the weather like in Paris?"}]
tools = [get_current_weather]


# format and tokenize the tool use prompt 
inputs = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
            conversation,
            tools=tools,
            add_generation_prompt=True,
            return_dict=True,
            return_tensors="pt",
)

model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_id, torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16, device_map="auto")

inputs.to(model.device)
outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=1000)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True))

Note that, for reasons of space, this example does not show a complete cycle of calling a tool and adding the tool call and tool results to the chat history so that the model can use them in its next generation. For a full tool calling example, please see the function calling guide, and note that Mistral does use tool call IDs, so these must be included in your tool calls and tool results. They should be exactly 9 alphanumeric characters.

Limitations

The Mistral 7B Instruct model is a quick demonstration that the base model can be easily fine-tuned to achieve compelling performance. It does not have any moderation mechanisms. We're looking forward to engaging with the community on ways to make the model finely respect guardrails, allowing for deployment in environments requiring moderated outputs.
