@seekdb/ollama

Ollama embedding function for SeekDB.

Ollama can run embedding models locally and exposes OpenAI-compatible endpoints for embedding generation. seekdb provides an OllamaEmbeddingFunction wrapper that uses the OpenAI-compatible API to generate embeddings from an Ollama server.

Dependencies and environment

In practice, you typically need:

• Ollama installed and running
• The embedding model pulled locally, for example:

  ollama pull nomic-embed-text

Installation

npm i seekdb @seekdb/ollama

Usage

import { OllamaEmbeddingFunction } from "@seekdb/ollama";

const ef = new OllamaEmbeddingFunction({
  url: "http://localhost:11434/v1",
  modelName: "nomic-embed-text",
  // apiKeyEnv: "OLLAMA_API_KEY",
});

Configuration

• url: Ollama base URL (default: "http://localhost:11434/v1")
• modelName: model name (default: "nomic-embed-text")
• apiKeyEnv: API key env var name (default: "OLLAMA_API_KEY", optional)

Notes

• Make sure Ollama is running and the model is available locally (e.g. ollama pull nomic-embed-text).
