Instructions to use sarvamai/sarvam-m with libraries, inference providers, notebooks, and local apps. Follow these links to get started.

Libraries

How to use sarvamai/sarvam-m with Transformers:

# Use a pipeline as a high-level helper
from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline("text-generation", model="sarvamai/sarvam-m")
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
pipe(messages)

# Load model directly
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("sarvamai/sarvam-m")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("sarvamai/sarvam-m", device_map="auto")
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
inputs = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
	messages,
	add_generation_prompt=True,
	tokenize=True,
	return_dict=True,
	return_tensors="pt",
).to(model.device)

outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=40)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0][inputs["input_ids"].shape[-1]:]))

vLLM

How to use sarvamai/sarvam-m with vLLM:

Install from pip and serve model

# Install vLLM from pip:
pip install vllm
# Start the vLLM server:
vllm serve "sarvamai/sarvam-m"
# Call the server using curl (OpenAI-compatible API):
curl -X POST "http://localhost:8000/v1/chat/completions" \
	-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
	--data '{
		"model": "sarvamai/sarvam-m",
		"messages": [
			{
				"role": "user",
				"content": "What is the capital of France?"
			}
		]
	}'

Use Docker

docker model run hf.co/sarvamai/sarvam-m

SGLang

How to use sarvamai/sarvam-m with SGLang:

Install from pip and serve model

# Install SGLang from pip:
pip install sglang
# Start the SGLang server:
python3 -m sglang.launch_server \
    --model-path "sarvamai/sarvam-m" \
    --host 0.0.0.0 \
    --port 30000
# Call the server using curl (OpenAI-compatible API):
curl -X POST "http://localhost:30000/v1/chat/completions" \

Quickstart

The following contains a code snippet illustrating how to use the model generate content based on given inputs.

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

model_name = "sarvamai/sarvam-M"

# load the tokenizer and the model
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    model_name, torch_dtype="auto", device_map="auto"
)

# prepare the model input
prompt = "Who are you and what is your purpose on this planet?"

messages = [{"role": "user", "content": prompt}]
text = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
    messages,
    tokenize=False,
    enable_thinking=True,  # Switches between thinking and non-thinking modes. Default is True.
)

model_inputs = tokenizer([text], return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)

# conduct text completion
generated_ids = model.generate(**model_inputs, max_new_tokens=8192)
output_ids = generated_ids[0][len(model_inputs.input_ids[0]) :].tolist()
output_text = tokenizer.decode(output_ids)

if "</think>" in output_text:
    thinking_content = output_text.split("</think>")[0].rstrip("\n")
    content = output_text.split("</think>")[-1].lstrip("\n").rstrip("</s>")
else:
    thinking_content = ""
    content = output_text.rstrip("</s>")

print("thinking content:", thinking_content)
print("content:", content)
