CommunityToolkit.Aspire.OllamaSharp library

Registers IOllamaApiClient in the DI container to interact with the Ollama API and optionally supports registering an IChatClient or IEmbeddingGenerator from Microsoft.Extensions.AI.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

  • Ollama HTTP(S) endpoint

Install the package

Install the .NET Aspire OllamaSharp library using the following command:

dotnet add package CommunityToolkit.Aspire.OllamaSharp

Example usage

In the Program.cs file of your project, call the AddOllamaApiClient extension method to register the IOllamaApiClient in the DI container. This method takes the connection name as a parameter:

builder.AddOllamaApiClient("ollama");

Then, in your service, inject IOllamaApiClient and use it to interact with the Ollama API:

public class MyService(IOllamaApiClient ollamaApiClient)
{
    // ...
}
Integration with Microsoft.Extensions.AI

To use the integration with Microsoft.Extensions.AI, call the AddOllamaSharpChatClient or AddOllamaSharpEmbeddingGenerator extension method in the Program.cs file of your project. These methods take the connection name as a parameter, just as AddOllamaApiClient does, and will register the IOllamaApiClient, as well as the IChatClient or IEmbeddingGenerator in the DI container. The IEmbeddingsGenerator is registered with the generic arguments of <string, Embedding<float>>.

Configuring OpenTelemetry

When using the chat client integration, you can optionally configure the OpenTelemetry chat client to control telemetry behavior such as enabling sensitive data:

builder.AddOllamaApiClient("ollama")
    .AddChatClient(otel => otel.EnableSensitiveData = true);

The integration automatically registers the Microsoft.Extensions.AI telemetry source (Experimental.Microsoft.Extensions.AI) with OpenTelemetry for distributed tracing.
