# Template
Ollama provides a powerful templating engine backed by Go's built-in templating engine to construct prompts for your large language model. This feature is a valuable tool to get the most out of your models.
## Basic Template Structure
A basic Go template consists of three main parts:
* **Layout**: The overall structure of the template.
* **Variables**: Placeholders for dynamic data that will be replaced with actual values when the template is rendered.
* **Functions**: Custom functions or logic that can be used to manipulate the template's content.
Here's an example of a simple chat template:
```gotmpl
{{- range .Messages }}
{{ .Role }}: {{ .Content }}
{{- end }}
```
In this example, we have:
* A basic messages structure (layout)
* Three variables: `Messages`, `Role`, and `Content` (variables)
* A custom function (action) that iterates over an array of items (`range .Messages`) and displays each item
## Adding templates to your model
By default, models imported into Ollama have a default template of `{{ .Prompt }}`, i.e. user inputs are sent verbatim to the LLM. This is appropriate for text or code completion models but lacks essential markers for chat or instruction models.
Omitting a template in these models puts the responsibility of correctly templating input onto the user. Adding a template allows users to easily get the best results from the model.
To add templates in your model, you'll need to add a `TEMPLATE` command to the Modelfile. Here's an example using Meta's Llama 3.
```dockerfile
FROM llama3
TEMPLATE """{{- if .System }}<|start_header_id|>system<|end_header_id|>
{{ .System }}<|eot_id|>
{{- end }}
{{- range .Messages }}<|start_header_id|>{{ .Role }}<|end_header_id|>
{{ .Content }}<|eot_id|>
{{- end }}<|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|>
"""
```
## Variables
`System` (string): system prompt
`Prompt` (string): user prompt
`Response` (string): assistant response
`Suffix` (string): text inserted after the assistant's response
`Messages` (list): list of messages
`Messages[].Role` (string): role which can be one of `system`, `user`, `assistant`, or `tool`
`Messages[].Content` (string): message content
`Messages[].ToolCalls` (list): list of tools the model wants to call
`Messages[].ToolCalls[].Function` (object): function to call
`Messages[].ToolCalls[].Function.Name` (string): function name
`Messages[].ToolCalls[].Function.Arguments` (map): mapping of argument name to argument value
`Tools` (list): list of tools the model can access
`Tools[].Type` (string): schema type. `type` is always `function`
`Tools[].Function` (object): function definition
`Tools[].Function.Name` (string): function name
`Tools[].Function.Description` (string): function description
`Tools[].Function.Parameters` (object): function parameters
`Tools[].Function.Parameters.Type` (string): schema type. `type` is always `object`
`Tools[].Function.Parameters.Required` (list): list of required properties
`Tools[].Function.Parameters.Properties` (map): mapping of property name to property definition
`Tools[].Function.Parameters.Properties[].Type` (string): property type
`Tools[].Function.Parameters.Properties[].Description` (string): property description
`Tools[].Function.Parameters.Properties[].Enum` (list): list of valid values
## Tips and Best Practices
Keep the following tips and best practices in mind when working with Go templates:
* **Be mindful of dot**: Control flow structures like `range` and `with` changes the value `.`
* **Out-of-scope variables**: Use `$.` to reference variables not currently in scope, starting from the root
* **Whitespace control**: Use `-` to trim leading (`{{-`) and trailing (`-}}`) whitespace
## Examples
### Example Messages
#### ChatML
ChatML is a popular template format. It can be used for models such as Databrick's DBRX, Intel's Neural Chat, and Microsoft's Orca 2.
```gotmpl
{{- if .System }}<|im_start|>system
{{ .System }}<|im_end|>
{{ end }}
{{- range .Messages }}<|im_start|>{{ .Role }}
{{ .Content }}<|im_end|>
{{ end }}<|im_start|>assistant
{{ else }}
{{ if .System }}<|im_start|>system
{{ .System }}<|im_end|>
```
### Example Tools
Tools support can be added to a model by adding a `{{ .Tools }}` node to the template. This feature is useful for models trained to call external tools and can a powerful tool for retrieving real-time data or performing complex tasks.
#### Mistral
Mistral v0.3 and Mixtral 8x22B supports tool calling.
```gotmpl
{{- range $index, $_ := .Messages }}
{{- if eq .Role "user" }}
{{- if and (le (len (slice $.Messages $index)) 2) $.Tools }}[AVAILABLE_TOOLS] {{ json $.Tools }}[/AVAILABLE_TOOLS]
{{- end }}[INST] {{ if and (eq (len (slice $.Messages $index)) 1) $.System }}{{ $.System }}
{{ end }}{{ .Content }}[/INST]
{{- else if eq .Role "assistant" }}
{{- if .Content }} {{ .Content }}</s>
{{- else if .ToolCalls }}[TOOL_CALLS] [
{{- range .ToolCalls }}{"name": "{{ .Function.Name }}", "arguments": {{ json .Function.Arguments }}}
{{- end }}]</s>
{{- end }}
{{- else if eq .Role "tool" }}[TOOL_RESULTS] {"content": {{ .Content }}}[/TOOL_RESULTS]
{{- end }}
{{- end }}
```
### Example Fill-in-Middle
Fill-in-middle support can be added to a model by adding a `{{ .Suffix }}` node to the template. This feature is useful for models that are trained to generate text in the middle of user input, such as code completion models.
#### CodeLlama
CodeLlama [7B](https://ollama.com/library/codellama:7b-code) and [13B](https://ollama.com/library/codellama:13b-code) code completion models support fill-in-middle.
```gotmpl
<PRE> {{ .Prompt }} <SUF>{{ .Suffix }} <MID>
```
> [!NOTE]
> CodeLlama 34B and 70B code completion and all instruct and Python fine-tuned models do not support fill-in-middle.
#### Codestral
Codestral [22B](https://ollama.com/library/codestral:22b) supports fill-in-middle.
```gotmpl
[SUFFIX]{{ .Suffix }}[PREFIX] {{ .Prompt }}
```
