# Ollama Holes
## Introduction
This is an example of a typed-hole plugin for GHC that uses the [Ollama](https://ollama.com/) to host a local LLM to fill in holes in Haskell code.
Before using this plugin, make sure you have the Ollama CLI installed and the model you want to use is available.
You can install the Ollama CLI by following the instructions at [https://ollama.com/download](https://ollama.com/download),
and you can install the default model (gemma3:27b) by running `ollama pull gemma3:27b`.
Note that the speed and quality of the hole-fits generated by the plugin depends on
the model you use, and the default model requires a GPU to run efficiently.
For a smaller model, we suggest `gemma3:4b-it-qat`, or `deepcoder:1.5b`.
This plugin is also availble on Hackage [https://hackage.haskell.org/package/ollama-holes-plugin](https://hackage.haskell.org/package/ollama-holes-plugin)
## Example
Given
```haskell
{-# OPTIONS_GHC -fplugin=GHC.Plugin.OllamaHoles #-}
{-# OPTIONS_GHC -fplugin-opt=GHC.Plugin.OllamaHoles:model=gemma3:27b #-}
{-# OPTIONS_GHC -fplugin-opt=GHC.Plugin.OllamaHoles:n=5 #-}
module Main where
import Data.List
main :: IO ()
main = do let k = (_b :: [Int] -> [String])
print (k [1,2,3])
```
We get the following output:
```text
Main.hs:12:20: error: [GHC-88464]
• Found hole: _b :: [Int] -> [String]
Or perhaps ‘_b’ is mis-spelled, or not in scope
• In the expression: _b :: [Int] -> [String]
In an equation for ‘k’: k = (_b :: [Int] -> [String])
In the expression:
do let k = (_b :: [Int] -> [String])
print (k [1, 2, ....])
• Relevant bindings include
k :: [Int] -> [String] (bound at Main.hs:12:15)
main :: IO () (bound at Main.hs:12:1)
Valid hole fits include
map show
map (\x -> "Number: " ++ show x)
(\xs -> map (\x -> "Element: " ++ show x) xs)
(\xs -> concatMap (\x -> ["Element: " ++ show x]) xs)
|
12 | main = do let k = (_b :: [Int] -> [String])
```
## Installation
1. Install [Ollama](https://ollama.com/download)
2. Install the `gemma3:27b` model (or any other model you prefer) using the following command:
```bash
ollama pull gemma3:27b
```
3. Clone this repository and navigate to the directory, and build the project using:
```bash
cabal build
```
4. Run the example using:
```bash
cabal build Test
```
5. Enjoy! If you want to change the underlying model, make sure to pass the model name via the plugin arguments (see example)
## OpenAI and Gemini backends
The plugin now supports using the OpenAI API and Gemini APIs to generate valid hole fits.
Simply set the backend flag `-fplugin-opt=GHC.Plugin.OllamaHoles:backend=openai`,
or `-fplugin-opt=GHC.Plugin.OllamaHoles:backend=gemini`, and make sure that
you have the `OPENAI_API_KEY` or `GEMINI_API_KEY` set in your environment.
To use with any other OpenAI compatible api (like groq or OpenRouter), simply set
`-fplugin-opt=GHC.Plugin.OllamaHoles:backend=openai`,
and
`-fplugin-opt=GHC.Plugin.OllamaHoles:openai_base_url=https://api.groq.com/openai`,
`-fplugin-opt=GHC.Plugin.OllamaHoles:openai_key_name=GROQ_API_KEY`,
