See convert-llama-hf-to-gguf.py as an example for its usage.

Installation

pip install gguf

API Examples/Simple Tools

examples/writer.py — Generates example.gguf in the current directory to demonstrate generating a GGUF file. Note that this file cannot be used as a model.

scripts/gguf-dump.py — Dumps a GGUF file's metadata to the console.

scripts/gguf-set-metadata.py — Allows changing simple metadata values in a GGUF file by key.

scripts/gguf-convert-endian.py — Allows converting the endianness of GGUF files.

Automatic publishing with CI

There's a GitHub workflow to make a release automatically upon creation of tags in a specified format.

  1. Bump the version in pyproject.toml.
  2. Create a tag named gguf-vx.x.x where x.x.x is the semantic version number.
git tag -a gguf-v1.0.0 -m "Version 1.0 release"
  1. Push the tags.
git push origin --tags

python -m build
  1. Upload the generated distribution archives:
python -m twine upload dist/*
