Visual Studio Code (VSCode) Ollama Local Code Co-pilot

An example to run an instance of Ollama via docker-compose and connect to VSCode for code completion / generation.

Prerequisites

The project uses the following software:

• Docker for desktop
• CodeGPT Chat

Usage

1. Navigate to the directory where the repository has been cloned and start the containers:

   docker-compose up -d --build
   

2. Wait for the ollama-setup-1 service to complete downloading codellama and other models.

3. Install CodeGPT onto VSCode and follow the instructions provided here.

Note

Initial prompts to Ollama might be slow, if the container was not previously running and not interacted with the model recently.

Notes

Using different Large Language Models (LLM) with CodeGPT

You can edit the docker-entrypoint.sh to pull any model available in the Ollama library, however CodeGPT currently supports a few models via the UI. You will need to manually type in the model name you have pulled into the 'Model' field for Ollama provider.

What devices has this been tested on?

I have only tried the container on my MacBook Pro M1 Pro with 16 RAM, so YMMV.
