Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Please expand the options in your LocalAI calls to allow us to configure more elements of the URL.

Currently, the Scheme, Port and API_endpoint are hardcoded in the /modules/Q03_localai_connector.sh file:

  • line 292: http://"${LOCAL_AI_IP}":8080/v1/chat/completions
  • line 419: http://"${LOCAL_AI_IP}":8080/v1/models

Describe the solution you'd like

  1. It would be nice if the AI_OPTION=3 parameter could be set as a command line option and/or fixed in the /config/ai_config.env file.
  2. In the /config/ai_config.env file contains the
  • Schema (HTTP/HTTPS) -> LOCAL_AI_SCHEME="HTTPS"
  • Port (0-65535) -> LOCAL_AI_PORT="8080"
  • Path to API endpoint: -> LOCAL_AI_API_ENDPOINT="/v1"

Describe alternatives you've considered Instead, we could use an HTTP proxy.

Research direction
Look at the Q03 localai connector.sh script to understand how the URL is currently composed and how configuration values are read from ai config.env. Then propose a way to make scheme, port, and API endpoint configurable, ensuring backward compatibility.
