Installation

Note: You will use a GPU to install mistral-inference, as it currently requires xformers to be installed and xformers itself needs a GPU for installation.

PyPI

pip install mistral-inference

Local

cd $HOME && git clone https://github.com/mistralai/mistral-inference
cd $HOME/mistral-inference && poetry install .

Note:

• Important:
  • mixtral-8x22B-Instruct-v0.3.tar is exactly the same as Mixtral-8x22B-Instruct-v0.1, only stored in .safetensors format
  • mixtral-8x22B-v0.3.tar is the same as Mixtral-8x22B-v0.1, but has an extended vocabulary of 32768 tokens.
• All of the listed models above supports function calling. For example, Mistral 7B Base/Instruct v3 is a minor update to Mistral 7B Base/Instruct v2, with the addition of function calling capabilities.
• The "coming soon" models will include function calling as well.
• You can download the previous versions of our models from our docs.

Create a local folder to store models

export MISTRAL_MODEL=$HOME/mistral_models
mkdir -p $MISTRAL_MODEL

Download any of the above links and extract the content, e.g.:

export M7B_DIR=$MISTRAL_MODEL/7B_instruct
wget https://models.mistralcdn.com/mistral-7b-v0-3/mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.3.tar
mkdir -p $M7B_DIR
tar -xf mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.3.tar -C $M7B_DIR

or

export M8x7B_DIR=$MISTRAL_MODEL/8x7b_instruct
wget https://models.mistralcdn.com/mixtral-8x7b-v0-1/Mixtral-8x7B-v0.1-Instruct.tar
mkdir -p $M8x7B_DIR
tar -xf Mixtral-8x7B-v0.1-Instruct.tar -C $M8x7B_DIR

Usage

The following sections give an overview of how to run the model from the Command-line interface or from Python.

CLI

• Demo

To test that a model works in your setup, you can run the mistral-demo command. The 7B models can be tested on a single GPU as follows:

mistral-demo $M7B_DIR

Large models, such 8x7B and 8x22B have to be run in a multi-GPU setup. For these models, you can use the following command:

torchrun --nproc-per-node 2 --no-python mistral-demo $M8x7B_DIR

Note: Change --nproc-per-node to more GPUs if available.

• Chat

To interactively chat with the models, you can make use of the mistral-chat command.

mistral-chat $M7B_DIR --instruct

For large models, you can make use of torchrun.

torchrun --nproc-per-node 2 --no-python mistral-chat $M8x7B_DIR --instruct

Note: Change --nproc-per-node to more GPUs if necessary (e.g. for 8x22B).

Python

• Instruction Following:

from mistral_inference.model import Transformer
from mistral_inference.generate import generate

from mistral_common.tokens.tokenizers.mistral import MistralTokenizer
from mistral_common.protocol.instruct.messages import UserMessage
from mistral_common.protocol.instruct.request import ChatCompletionRequest


tokenizer = MistralTokenizer.from_file("./mistral_7b_instruct/tokenizer.model.v3")  # change to extracted tokenizer file
model = Transformer.from_folder("./mistral_7b_instruct")  # change to extracted model dir

completion_request = ChatCompletionRequest(messages=[UserMessage(content="Explain Machine Learning to me in a nutshell.")])

tokens = tokenizer.encode_chat_completion(completion_request).tokens

out_tokens, _ = generate([tokens], model, max_tokens=64, temperature=0.0, eos_id=tokenizer.instruct_tokenizer.tokenizer.eos_id)
result = tokenizer.instruct_tokenizer.tokenizer.decode(out_tokens[0])

print(result)

• Function Calling:

from mistral_common.protocol.instruct.tool_calls import Function, Tool

completion_request = ChatCompletionRequest(
    tools=[
        Tool(
            function=Function(
                name="get_current_weather",
                description="Get the current weather",
                parameters={
                    "type": "object",
                    "properties": {
                        "location": {
                            "type": "string",
                            "description": "The city and state, e.g. San Francisco, CA",
                        },
                        "format": {
                            "type": "string",
                            "enum": ["celsius", "fahrenheit"],
                            "description": "The temperature unit to use. Infer this from the users location.",
                        },
                    },
                    "required": ["location", "format"],
                },
            )
        )
    ],
    messages=[
        UserMessage(content="What's the weather like today in Paris?"),
        ],
)

tokens = tokenizer.encode_chat_completion(completion_request).tokens

out_tokens, _ = generate([tokens], model, max_tokens=64, temperature=0.0, eos_id=tokenizer.instruct_tokenizer.tokenizer.eos_id)
result = tokenizer.instruct_tokenizer.tokenizer.decode(out_tokens[0])

print(result)

One-file-ref

If you want a self-contained implementation, look at one_file_ref.py, or run it with

python -m one_file_ref $M7B_DIR

which should give something along the following lines:

This is a test of the emergency broadcast system. This is only a test.

If this were a real emergency, you would be told what to do.

This is a test
=====================
This is another test of the new blogging software. I’m not sure if I’m going to keep it or not. I’m not sure if I’m going to keep

This is a third test, mistral AI is very good at testing. 🙂

Note: To run self-contained implementations, you need to do a local installation.

Test

To run logits equivalence:

python -m pytest tests

Deployment

The deploy folder contains code to build a vLLM image with the required dependencies to serve the Mistral AI model. In the image, the transformers library is used instead of the reference implementation. To build it:

docker build deploy --build-arg MAX_JOBS=8

Instructions to run the image can be found in the official documentation.

Model platforms

• Use Mistral models on Mistral AI official API (La Plateforme)
• Use Mistral models via cloud providers
