- `stream`: if `false` the response will be returned as a single response object, rather than a stream of objects
- `raw`: if `true` no formatting will be applied to the prompt and no context will be returned. You may choose to use the `raw` parameter if you are specifying a full templated prompt in your request to the API, and are managing history yourself.
### JSON mode
Enable JSON mode by setting the `format` parameter to `json` and specifying the model should use JSON in the `prompt`. This will structure the response as valid JSON. See the JSON mode [example](#request-json-mode) below.
### Examples
#### Request
```shell
curl -X POST http://localhost:11434/api/generate -d '{
"model": "llama2:7b",
"model": "llama2",
"prompt": "Why is the sky blue?"
}'

"created_at": "2023-11-09T21:07:55.186497Z",
"response": "{\n\"morning\": {\n\"color\": \"blue\"\n},\n\"noon\": {\n\"color\": \"blue-gray\"\n},\n\"afternoon\": {\n\"color\": \"warm gray\"\n},\n\"evening\": {\n\"color\": \"orange\"\n}\n}\n",

"eval_count": 75,
"eval_duration": 2112149000
}
```
The value of `response` will be a string containing JSON similar to:
```json
{
"morning": {
"color": "blue"
},
"noon": {
"color": "blue-gray"
},
"afternoon": {
"color": "warm gray"
},
"evening": {
"color": "orange"
}
}
```
#### Request (With options)
If you want to set custom options for the model at runtime rather than in the Modelfile, you can do so with the `options` parameter. This example sets every available option, but you can set any of them individually and omit the ones you do not want to override.
