# Using Llama Stack as a Library
|
|
|
|
## Setup Llama Stack without a Server
|
|
If you are planning to use an external service for Inference (even Ollama or TGI counts as external), it is often easier to use Llama Stack as a library.
|
|
This avoids the overhead of setting up a server.
|
|
```bash
|
|
# setup
|
|
uv pip install llama-stack
|
|
llama stack build --distro starter --image-type venv
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
from llama_stack.core.library_client import LlamaStackAsLibraryClient
|
|
|
|
client = LlamaStackAsLibraryClient(
|
|
"starter",
|
|
# provider_data is optional, but if you need to pass in any provider specific data, you can do so here.
|
|
provider_data={"tavily_search_api_key": os.environ["TAVILY_SEARCH_API_KEY"]},
|
|
)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will parse your config and set up any inline implementations and remote clients needed for your implementation.
|
|
|
|
Then, you can access the APIs like `models` and `inference` on the client and call their methods directly:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
response = client.models.list()
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you've created a [custom distribution](./building_distro), you can also use the run.yaml configuration file directly:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
client = LlamaStackAsLibraryClient(config_path)
|
|
```
