Chatti is a terminal-based chat application that interfaces with Ollama, providing a unique way to interact with Ollama's language models directly from your command line.
- Support for various Ollama models
- Configurable API endpoint and model parameters
- Markdown rendering for chat responses
Before you begin, ensure you have the following installed:
- Rust (latest stable version)
- Ollama (running and accessible)
Chatti uses a configuration file located at ~/.config/chatti/config.toml. If this file doesn't exist, the application will create a default one on first run. You can edit this file to change the following settings:
api_endpoint = "http://localhost:11434/api/chat"
model = "llama3.2"
stream = true
temperature = 0.7api_endpoint: The URL of your Ollama API endpointmodel: The Ollama model you want to usestream: Whether to use streaming responses (recommended)temperature: The temperature parameter for text generation (0.0 to 1.0)
To start the application, run:
cargo run
Once the application starts:
- Type your message and press Enter to send it to the Ollama model
- Use the up and down arrow keys to scroll through the chat history
- Press 'q' to quit the application
- Press '?' to display the help menu
To run tests:
cargo test
