Concrete vLLM tool parsers override the abstract base's __init__ and
drop the tools kwarg (e.g. Hermes2ProToolParser only takes tokenizer).
Instantiating with tools= raised TypeError which was silently caught,
leaving chat_deltas.tool_calls empty.
Retry the constructor without the tools kwarg on TypeError — tools
aren't required by these parsers since extract_tool_calls finds tool
syntax in the raw model output directly.
Validated with Qwen/Qwen2.5-0.5B-Instruct + hermes parser on CPU:
the backend correctly returns ToolCallDelta{name='get_weather',
arguments='{"location": "Paris, France"}'} in ChatDelta.
test_tool_calls.py is a standalone smoke test that spawns the gRPC
backend, sends a chat completion with tools, and asserts the response
contains a structured tool call.
Validated end-to-end on CPU with Qwen2.5-0.5B-Instruct (LoadModel, Predict,
TokenizeString, Free all working).
- requirements-cpu-after.txt: pin vllm to 0.14.1+cpu (pre-built wheel from
GitHub releases) for x86_64 and aarch64. vllm 0.14.1 is the newest CPU
wheel whose torch dependency resolves against published PyTorch builds
(torch==2.9.1+cpu). Later vllm CPU wheels currently require
torch==2.10.0+cpu which is only available on the PyTorch test channel
with incompatible torchvision.
- requirements-cpu.txt: bump torch to 2.9.1+cpu, add torchvision/torchaudio
so uv resolves them consistently from the PyTorch CPU index.
- install.sh: add --index-strategy=unsafe-best-match for CPU builds so uv
can mix the PyTorch index and PyPI for transitive deps (matches the
existing intel profile behaviour).
- backend.py LoadModel: vllm >= 0.14 removed AsyncLLMEngine.get_model_config
so the old code path errored out with AttributeError on model load.
Switch to the new get_tokenizer()/tokenizer accessor with a fallback
to building the tokenizer directly from request.Model.
- Split vllm install per acceleration: move generic `vllm` out of
requirements-after.txt into per-profile after files (cublas12, hipblas,
intel) and add CPU wheel URL for cpu-after.txt
- requirements-cpu.txt now pulls torch==2.7.0+cpu from PyTorch CPU index
- backend/index.yaml: register cpu-vllm / cpu-vllm-development variants
- New backend/python/common/vllm_utils.py: shared parse_options,
messages_to_dicts, setup_parsers helpers (used by both vllm backends)
- vllm-omni: replace hardcoded chat template with tokenizer.apply_chat_template,
wire native parsers via shared utils, emit ChatDelta with token counts,
add TokenizeString and Free RPCs, detect CPU and set VLLM_TARGET_DEVICE
- Add test_cpu_inference.py: standalone script to validate CPU build with
a small model (Qwen2.5-0.5B-Instruct)
- Use vLLM's ToolParserManager/ReasoningParserManager to extract structured
output (tool calls, reasoning content) instead of reimplementing parsing
- Convert proto Messages to dicts and pass tools to apply_chat_template
- Emit ChatDelta with content/reasoning_content/tool_calls in Reply
- Extract prompt_tokens, completion_tokens, and logprobs from output
- Replace boolean GuidedDecoding with proper GuidedDecodingParams from Grammar
- Add TokenizeString and Free RPC methods
- Fix missing `time` import used by load_video()

* feat: Add backend gallery
This PR add support to manage backends as similar to models. There is
now available a backend gallery which can be used to install and remove
extra backends.
The backend gallery can be configured similarly as a model gallery, and
API calls allows to install and remove new backends in runtime, and as
well during the startup phase of LocalAI.
