Numbers Station Text to SQL model code.
NSQL is a family of autoregressive open-source large foundation models (FMs) designed specifically for SQL generation tasks. All model weights are provided on HuggingFace.
Model Name | Size | Link |
---|---|---|
NumbersStation/nsql-350M | 350M | link |
NumbersStation/nsql-2B | 2.7B | link |
NumbersStation/nsql-6B | 6B | link |
To install, run
pip install -r requirements.txt
See examples in examples/
for how to connect to Postgres or SQLite to ask questions directly over your data. A small code snippet is provided below from the examples/
directory.
In a separate screen or window, run
python3 -m manifest.api.app \
--model_type huggingface \
--model_generation_type text-generation \
--model_name_or_path NumbersStation/nsql-350M \
--device 0
Then run
from db_connectors import PostgresConnector
from prompt_formatters import RajkumarFormatter
from manifest import Manifest
postgres_connector = PostgresConnector(
user=USER, password=PASSWORD, dbname=DATABASE, host=HOST, port=PORT
)
postgres_connector.connect()
db_schema = [postgres_connector.get_schema(table) for table in postgres_connector.get_tables()]
formatter = RajkumarFormatter(db_schema)
manifest_client = Manifest(client_name="huggingface", client_connection="http://127.0.0.1:5000")
def get_sql(instruction: str, max_tokens: int = 300) -> str:
prompt = formatter.format_prompt(instruction)
res = manifest_client.run(prompt, max_tokens=max_tokens)
return formatter.format_model_output(res)
print(get_sql("Number of rows in table?"))
