Code

Use it in your project:

npm install node-llama-cpp

import {getLlama, resolveModelFile, LlamaChatSession} from "node-llama-cpp";

const modelUri = "hf:giladgd/gemma-4-12B-it-GGUF:Q4_K_M";


const llama = await getLlama();
const model = await llama.loadModel({
    modelPath: await resolveModelFile(modelUri)
});
const context = await model.createContext();
const session = new LlamaChatSession({
    contextSequence: context.getSequence()
});


const q1 = "Hi there, how are you?";
console.log("User: " + q1);

const a1 = await session.prompt(q1);
console.log("AI: " + a1);
