The OpenAI Node.js SDK v4+ sends encoding_format=base64 by default.
LocalAI previously ignored this parameter and always returned a float
JSON array, causing a silent data corruption bug in any Node.js client
(AnythingLLM Desktop, LangChain.js, LlamaIndex.TS, …):
// What the client does when it expects base64 but receives a float array:
Buffer.from(floatArray, 'base64')
Node.js treats a non-string first argument as a byte array — each
float32 value is truncated to a single byte — and Float32Array then
reads those bytes as floats, yielding dims/4 values. Vector databases
(Qdrant, pgvector, …) then create collections with the wrong dimension,
causing all similarity searches to fail silently.
e.g. granite-embedding-107m (384 dims) → 96 stored in Qdrant
jina-embeddings-v3 (1024 dims) → 256 stored in Qdrant
Changes:
- core/schema/prediction.go: add EncodingFormat string field to
PredictionOptions so the request parameter is parsed and available
throughout the request pipeline
- core/schema/openai.go: add EmbeddingBase64 string field to Item;
add MarshalJSON so the "embedding" JSON key emits either []float32
or a base64 string depending on which field is populated — all other
Item consumers (image, video endpoints) are unaffected
- core/http/endpoints/openai/embeddings.go: add floatsToBase64()
which packs a float32 slice as little-endian bytes and base64-encodes
it; add embeddingItem() helper; both InputToken and InputStrings loops
now honour encoding_format=base64

Instead of trying to re-invent the wheel and maintain here the inference

* fix(defaults): set better defaults for inferencing
This changeset aim to have better defaults and to properly detect when
no inference settings are provided with the model.
If not specified, we defaults to mirostat sampling, and offload all the
GPU layers (if a GPU is detected).
