Predibase is a platform for fine-tuning and serving open-source Large Language Models (LLMs). It's built on top of open-source [LoRAX](https://loraexchange.ai/).

## Account Setup

[Comet](https://www.comet.com/site) provides a hosted version of the Opik platform, [simply create an account](https://www.comet.com/signup) and grab your API Key.

> You can also run the Opik platform locally, see the [installation guide](/guides/overview-self-host-overview) for more information.

## Tracking your LLM calls

Predibase can be used to serve open-source LLMs and is available as a model provider in LangChain. We will leverage the Opik integration with LangChain to track the LLM calls made using Predibase models.

## Getting Started

### Installation

To use the Opik integration with Predibase, you'll need to have both the `opik`, `predibase` and `langchain` packages installed. You can install them using pip:

```bash
pip install opik predibase langchain
```

### Configuring Opik

Configure the Opik Python SDK for your deployment type. See the [Python SDK Configuration guide](https://www.comet.com/tracing/advanced/sdk_configuration) for detailed instructions on:

- **CLI configuration**: `opik configure`
- **Code configuration**: `opik.configure()`
- **Self-hosted vs Cloud vs Enterprise** setup
- **Configuration files** and environment variables

### Configuring Predibase

You will also need to set the `PREDIBASE_API_TOKEN` environment variable to your Predibase API token. You can set it as an environment variable:

```bash
export PREDIBASE_API_TOKEN=<your-predibase-api-token>
```

Or set it programmatically:

```python
import os
import getpass

if "PREDIBASE_API_TOKEN" not in os.environ:
    os.environ["PREDIBASE_API_TOKEN"] = getpass.getpass("Enter your Predibase API token: ")
```

## Logging LLM calls

In order to log the LLM calls to Opik, you will need to wrap the Predibase model with the `OpikTracer` from the LangChain integration. When making calls with that wrapped model, all calls will be logged to Opik:

```python
import os
from langchain_community.llms import Predibase
from opik.integrations.langchain import OpikTracer

os.environ["OPIK_PROJECT_NAME"] = "predibase-integration-demo"

# Create the Opik tracer
opik_tracer = OpikTracer(tags=["predibase", "langchain"])

# Create Predibase model
model = Predibase(
    model="mistral-7b",
    predibase_api_key=os.environ.get("PREDIBASE_API_TOKEN"),
)

# Test the model with Opik tracing
response = model.invoke(
    "Can you recommend me a nice dry wine?",
    config={
        "temperature": 0.5,
        "max_new_tokens": 1024,
        "callbacks": [opik_tracer]
    }
)
print(response)
```

In addition to passing the OpikTracer to the invoke method, you can also define it during the creation of the `Predibase` object:

```python
model = Predibase(
    model="mistral-7b",
    predibase_api_key=os.environ.get("PREDIBASE_API_TOKEN"),
).with_config({"callbacks": [opik_tracer]})
```

You can learn more about the Opik integration with LangChain in our [LangChain integration
guide](/guides/python-langchain).

The trace will now be available in the Opik UI for further analysis.

## Advanced Usage

### SequentialChain Example

Now, let's create a more complex chain and run it with Opik tracing:

```python
from langchain.chains import LLMChain, SimpleSequentialChain
from langchain_core.prompts import PromptTemplate

# Synopsis chain
template = """You are a playwright. Given the title of play, it is your job to write a synopsis for that title.

Title: {title}
Playwright: This is a synopsis for the above play:"""
prompt_template = PromptTemplate(input_variables=["title"], template=template)
synopsis_chain = LLMChain(llm=model, prompt=prompt_template)

# Review chain
template = """You are a play critic from the New York Times. Given the synopsis of play, it is your job to write a review for that play.

Play Synopsis:
{synopsis}
Review from a New York Times play critic of the above play:"""
prompt_template = PromptTemplate(input_variables=["synopsis"], template=template)
review_chain = LLMChain(llm=model, prompt=prompt_template)

# Overall chain
overall_chain = SimpleSequentialChain(
    chains=[synopsis_chain, review_chain], verbose=True
)

# Run the chain with Opik tracing
review = overall_chain.run("Tragedy at sunset on the beach", callbacks=[opik_tracer])
print(review)
```

### Accessing Logged Traces

We can access the trace IDs collected by the Opik tracer:

```python
traces = opik_tracer.created_traces()
print("Collected trace IDs:", [trace.id for trace in traces])

# Flush traces to ensure all data is logged
opik_tracer.flush()
```

### Fine-tuned LLM Example

Finally, let's use a fine-tuned model with Opik tracing:

**Note:** In order to use a fine-tuned model, you will need to have access to the model and the correct model ID. The code below will return a `NotFoundError` unless the `model` and `adapter_id` are updated.

```python
fine_tuned_model = Predibase(
    model="my-base-LLM",
    predibase_api_key=os.environ.get("PREDIBASE_API_TOKEN"),
    predibase_sdk_version=None,
    adapter_id="my-finetuned-adapter-id",
    adapter_version=1,
    **{
        "api_token": os.environ.get("HUGGING_FACE_HUB_TOKEN"),
        "max_new_tokens": 5,
    },
)

# Configure the Opik tracer
fine_tuned_model = fine_tuned_model.with_config({"callbacks": [opik_tracer]})

# Invoke the fine-tuned model
response = fine_tuned_model.invoke(
    "Can you help categorize the following emails into positive, negative, and neutral?",
    **{"temperature": 0.5, "max_new_tokens": 1024},
)
print(response)

# Final flush to ensure all traces are logged
opik_tracer.flush()
```

## Tracking your fine-tuning training runs

If you are using Predibase to fine-tune an LLM, we recommend using Predibase's integration with Comet's Experiment Management functionality. You can learn more about how to set this up in the [Comet integration guide](https://docs.predibase.com/integrations/comet) in the Predibase documentation. If you are already using an Experiment Tracking platform, worth checking if it has an integration with Predibase.
