Bropilot.nvim

Bropilot is a GitHub Copilot alternative that takes advantage of local LLMs through Ollama's API.

Current working models:

• qwen2.5-coder
• deepseek-coder
• deepseek-coder-v2
• starcoder2
• codellama
• codegemma (doesn't seem to work anymore... ollama/ollama#4806)

Setup

You need to have Ollama installed and running for bro to work. Official download link

For Linux:

curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | sh
# And check that the service is running
systemctl status ollama

Configuration

Here is the default configuration.

• auto_suggest is a boolean that enables automatic debounced suggestions
• excluded_filetypes is an array of filetypes ignored by the auto_suggest option (#1)
• model is a string (e.g. "codellama:7b-code" or "codegemma:2b-code")
• preset is a boolean to enable/disabled predefined settings (See compatible models)
• model_params is an optional table defining model params as per Ollama API params
• prompt is a table defining the prefix, suffix and middle keywords for FIM
• debounce is a number in milliseconds (this value gradually increases as long as curl does not respond to avoid overload issues)
• keymap is a table to set the different keymap shortcuts (not using lazy keys to allow fallback to default behavior when suggestions are not active)

require('bropilot').setup({
  auto_suggest = true,
  excluded_filetypes = {},
  model = "qwen2.5-coder:0.5b-base",
  model_params = {
    num_ctx = 32768,
  },
  preset = true,
  debounce = 500,
  keymap = {
    accept_word = "<C-Right>",
    accept_line = "<S-Right>",
    accept_block = "<Tab>",
    suggest = "<C-Down>",
  },
  ollama_url = "http://localhost:11434/api",
})

Usage

Install and configure using lazy.nvim

  {
    'meeehdi-dev/bropilot.nvim',
    event = "VeryLazy", -- preload model on start
    dependencies = {
      "nvim-lua/plenary.nvim",
      "j-hui/fidget.nvim",
    },
    config = true, -- setup with default options
  }
  -- or
  {
    'meeehdi-dev/bropilot.nvim',
    event = "VeryLazy", -- preload model on start
    dependencies = {
      "nvim-lua/plenary.nvim",
      "j-hui/fidget.nvim",
    },
    opts = {
      auto_suggest = true,
      model = "starcoder2:3b",
      prompt = { -- FIM prompt for starcoder2
        prefix = "<fim_prefix>",
        suffix = "<fim_suffix>",
        middle = "<fim_middle>",
      },
      debounce = 500,
      keymap = {
        accept_line = "<M-Right>",
      },
    },
    config = function (_, opts)
        require("bropilot").setup(opts)
    end,
  }
