Configuration

llamactl can be configured via configuration files or environment variables. Configuration is loaded in the following order of precedence:

Defaults < Configuration file < Environment variables

llamactl works out of the box with sensible defaults, but you can customize the behavior to suit your needs.

Default Configuration

Here's the default configuration with all available options:

server:
  host: "0.0.0.0"                # Server host to bind to
  port: 8080                     # Server port to bind to
  allowed_origins: ["*"]         # Allowed CORS origins (default: all)
  enable_swagger: false          # Enable Swagger UI for API docs

instances:
  port_range: [8000, 9000]       # Port range for instances
  data_dir: ~/.local/share/llamactl         # Data directory (platform-specific, see below)
  configs_dir: ~/.local/share/llamactl/instances  # Instance configs directory
  logs_dir: ~/.local/share/llamactl/logs    # Logs directory
  auto_create_dirs: true         # Auto-create data/config/logs dirs if missing
  max_instances: -1              # Max instances (-1 = unlimited)
  max_running_instances: -1      # Max running instances (-1 = unlimited)
  enable_lru_eviction: true      # Enable LRU eviction for idle instances
  llama_executable: llama-server # Path to llama-server executable
  default_auto_restart: true     # Auto-restart new instances by default
  default_max_restarts: 3        # Max restarts for new instances
  default_restart_delay: 5       # Restart delay (seconds) for new instances
  default_on_demand_start: true  # Default on-demand start setting
  on_demand_start_timeout: 120   # Default on-demand start timeout in seconds
  timeout_check_interval: 5      # Idle instance timeout check in minutes

auth:
  require_inference_auth: true   # Require auth for inference endpoints
  inference_keys: []             # Keys for inference endpoints
  require_management_auth: true  # Require auth for management endpoints
  management_keys: []            # Keys for management endpoints

Configuration Files

Configuration File Locations

Configuration files are searched in the following locations (in order of precedence):

Linux:

  • ./llamactl.yaml or ./config.yaml (current directory)
  • $HOME/.config/llamactl/config.yaml
  • /etc/llamactl/config.yaml

macOS:

  • ./llamactl.yaml or ./config.yaml (current directory)
  • $HOME/Library/Application Support/llamactl/config.yaml
  • /Library/Application Support/llamactl/config.yaml

Windows:

  • ./llamactl.yaml or ./config.yaml (current directory)
  • %APPDATA%\llamactl\config.yaml
  • %USERPROFILE%\llamactl\config.yaml
  • %PROGRAMDATA%\llamactl\config.yaml

You can specify the path to config file with LLAMACTL_CONFIG_PATH environment variable.

Configuration Options

Server Configuration
