# chatbot-ui
Example of integration with [mckaywrigley/chatbot-ui](https://github.com/mckaywrigley/chatbot-ui).

## Run
In this example LocalAI will download the gpt4all model and set it up as "gpt-3.5-turbo". See the `docker-compose.yaml`
```bash
# Clone LocalAI
git clone https://github.com/go-skynet/LocalAI
cd LocalAI/examples/chatbot-ui
# start with docker-compose
docker-compose up --pull always
# or you can build the images with:
# docker-compose up -d --build
```
Then browse to `http://localhost:3000` to view the Web UI.
## Pointing chatbot-ui to a separately managed LocalAI service
If you want to use the [chatbot-ui example](https://github.com/go-skynet/LocalAI/tree/master/examples/chatbot-ui) with an externally managed LocalAI service, you can alter the `docker-compose.yaml` file so that it looks like the below. You will notice the file is smaller, because we have removed the section that would normally start the LocalAI service. Take care to update the IP address (or FQDN) that the chatbot-ui service tries to access (marked `<<LOCALAI_IP>>` below):
```yaml
version: '3.6'
services:
chatgpt:
image: ghcr.io/mckaywrigley/chatbot-ui:main
ports:
- 3000:3000
environment:
- 'OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX'
- 'OPENAI_API_HOST=http://<<LOCALAI_IP>>:8080'
```
Once you've edited the `docker-compose.yaml`, you can start it with `docker compose up`, then browse to `http://localhost:3000` to view the Web UI.
## Accessing chatbot-ui
Open http://localhost:3000 for the Web UI.
