#### Share local language model inference across friends and colleagues

Rozalia lends the language model hardware sitting on your desk to the
people you choose, behind one OpenAI-compatible endpoint.

The machines with the GPUs live at home, behind NAT, where nothing on the
internet can dial them. So they dial out instead: rozalia-proxy opens a
WebSocket to the server and holds it there, and the server pushes
requests down it, to whichever machine advertises the model asked for and
has the fewest requests in flight.

This snap ships the proxy. Lending a machine takes a one-time enrollment
code. If your account on the server may already lend hardware, that is
self-service: sign in, open your account page and create one under
Enrollment codes. Otherwise ask whoever runs the server for one. Then
enrol the machine, say what to offer and where, and turn it on:

```
 sudo rozalia.proxyctl enroll -server https://ai.example.org \
     -code rze_...
 sudo snap set rozalia \
     proxy-server=https://ai.example.org \
     proxy-backends=http://127.0.0.1:11434/v1 \
     proxy=true
```

proxy-backends takes a comma-separated list, for a machine running more
than one inference server. proxy-concurrency says how many requests to
run at once, and defaults to one, because a single GPU answering two
completions at once finishes neither sooner.

The cloud half is optional and ships as a separate component, so a
machine that only lends its GPU never downloads it:

```
 sudo snap install rozalia+server
 sudo snap set rozalia \
     base-url=https://ai.example.org \
     listen-addr=127.0.0.1:8080
 sudo snap set rozalia server=true
 sudo rozalia.serverctl account create -email you@example.org -admin
```

The server does not start on install: a fresh database has no accounts,
and the address it should listen on is not something a package can
guess.

The stable channel carries tagged releases. Edge is built from every
commit to the main branch, for trying a fix before it is released.

## Enable snaps on CentOS and install Rozalia

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.

Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions.

### Enable snapd

Snap is available for [CentOS 7.6+](https://snapcraft.io/install/rozalia/centos), and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.6+, from the [Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux](https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL) (EPEL) repository. The EPEL repository can be added to your system with the following command:

```
sudo yum install epel-release
```

Snap can now be installed as follows:

```
sudo yum install snapd
```

Once installed, the *systemd* unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled:

```
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket
```

To enable *classic* snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between `/var/lib/snapd/snap` and `/snap`:

```
sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
```

Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.

### Install Rozalia

To install Rozalia, simply use the following command:

```
sudo snap install rozalia
