Amazing Work! Thank you!

[MalteBoehm]

Great one, can it work on a M1?

[hqnicolas]

can it work on a M1?

@MalteBoehm The only ARM that I test it is RK3566, and it works... the Ollama was external on RX7800XT desktop

Great one, can it work on a M1?

I just tested it with a M1, and it does work. Took me some time to set it up, but after the setup it worked great.

not able to create project it says devika inactive

[subhajit20]

not able to create project it says devika inactive

Same thing happening with me as well. After reselecting the project option the agent gets active but not being able to generate anything corresponding the request given by me. I ran that couple of time but nothing happening.

@subhajit20 and @janvi2021

The stitionai/devika works fine for me today it was fixed on today's version I will fork it and apply the docker compose to external ollama https://github.com/hqnicolas/devika

@hqnicolas thank you for the last update. Unfortunately I have the same symptoms as @subhajit20 and @janvi2021 with the last push (web page is UP so the front end is OK, but backend is not "fully" running. NOTE : is there a specific reason to get openchat, mistral and xxx model on external ollama side? I did'nt saw theses LLM in config files (maybe it is the reason that the backend is not working...). Unfortunately there is no debug on the backend container... It seems that the "healthcheck" on port 1337 is not UP (container "not healthy" but I can't see why the service is not working :(

[hqnicolas]

@sebj84 are you in ollama? Latest Devika Version was Working with Ollama, I have Freezed it on my Repo: git push https://github.com/hqnicolas/devika cd devika create config file edit the docker compose to ollama url sudo docker compose build sudo docker compose up
