Prerequisites

Before using this component, you need to:

Basic settings

Property type	Either Built-in or Repository . Built-in: No property data stored centrally. Repository: Select the repository file in which the properties are stored. The fields that follow are completed automatically using the data retrieved.
Schema and Edit Schema	A schema is a row description, it defines the number of fields to be processed and passed on to the next component. The schema is either Built-in or stored remotely in the Repository. Built-in: You create and store the schema locally for this component only. For more information about a component schema in its Basic settings tab, see Basic settings tab. Repository: You have already created the schema and stored it in the Repository. You can reuse it in various projects and Job designs. For more information about a component schema in its Basic settings tab, see Basic settings tab. Click Edit schema to make changes to the schema. If the current schema is of the Repository type, three options are available: View schema: choose this option to view the schema only. Change to built-in property: choose this option to change the schema to Built-in for local changes. Update repository connection: choose this option to change the schema stored in the repository and decide whether to propagate the changes to all the Jobs upon completion. If you just want to propagate the changes to the current Job, you can select No upon completion and choose this schema metadata again in the Repository Content window.
Host	Type in the local URL address of the Ollama API server you want to access, by default it is `http://localhost:11434/`.
Model	To select one of the available Llama models, click the [...] button next to the field. In the dialog box displayed, select the model that will be used or select the Use custom value check box and specify the model name in the Custom value field. As of now, the component supports LLama 3.x models.
Prompt	Enter your instructions in this field. For more information on prompt writing best practices, read How to prompt Code Llama. Example: `List the top 10 cities corresponding to the given countries, only include city names in the answer.`.

Advanced settings

tStatCatcher Statistics	Select this check box to gather the Job processing metadata at a Job level and at each component level.

Global Variables

Global Variables	ERROR_MESSAGE: the error message generated by the component when an error occurs. This is an After variable and it returns a string. This variable functions only if the Die on error check box is cleared, if the component has this check box.

Usage

Usage rules	This component cannot handle dynamic columns. The component performance depends on the following factors: Good prompt writing, see How to prompt Code Llama. LLaMa model size. For example, LLaMa 3.2 (3B) is faster than LLaMa 3.3 (70B). Local machine CPU, memory, and GPU configuration.
