Instructions to use deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1 with libraries, inference providers, notebooks, and local apps. Follow these links to get started.

Libraries

How to use deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1 with Transformers:

# Use a pipeline as a high-level helper
from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline("text-generation", model="deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1", trust_remote_code=True)
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
pipe(messages)

# Load model directly
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1", trust_remote_code=True)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1", trust_remote_code=True)
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
inputs = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
	messages,
	add_generation_prompt=True,
	tokenize=True,
	return_dict=True,
	return_tensors="pt",
).to(model.device)

outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=40)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0][inputs["input_ids"].shape[-1]:]))

vLLM

How to use deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1 with vLLM:

Install from pip and serve model

# Install vLLM from pip:
pip install vllm
# Start the vLLM server:
vllm serve "deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1"
# Call the server using curl (OpenAI-compatible API):
curl -X POST "http://localhost:8000/v1/chat/completions" \
	-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
	--data '{
		"model": "deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1",
		"messages": [
			{
				"role": "user",
				"content": "What is the capital of France?"
			}
		]
	}'

Use Docker

docker model run hf.co/deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1

SGLang

How to use deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1 with SGLang:

Install from pip and serve model

# Install SGLang from pip:
pip install sglang
# Start the SGLang server:
python3 -m sglang.launch_server \
    --model-path "deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1" \
    --host 0.0.0.0 \
    --port 30000
# Call the server using curl (OpenAI-compatible API):
curl -X POST "http://localhost:30000/v1/chat/completions" \
	-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
	--data '{
		"model": "deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1",
		"messages": [
			{
				"role": "user",
				"content": "What is the capital of France?"
			}
		]
	}'

Use Docker images

docker run --gpus all \
    --shm-size 32g \
    -p 30000:30000 \
    -v ~/.cache/huggingface:/root/.cache/huggingface \
    --env "HF_TOKEN=<secret>" \
    --ipc=host \
    lmsysorg/sglang:latest \
    python3 -m sglang.launch_server \
        --model-path "deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1" \
        --host 0.0.0.0 \
        --port 30000
# Call the server using curl (OpenAI-compatible API):
curl -X POST "http://localhost:30000/v1/chat/completions" \
	-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
	--data '{
		"model": "deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1",
		"messages": [
			{
				"role": "user",
				"content": "What is the capital of France?"
			}
		]
	}'

Docker Model Runner
How to use deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1 with Docker Model Runner:
```
docker model run hf.co/deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1
```

Does this model support text insertion (fill in middle)?

I think it is not natively designed for fill-in-the-middle tasks, as its architecture prioritizes sequential reasoning and generation.
workaround via prompt engineering:
Prefix: "The capital of France is"
Suffix: "and it is famous for the Eiffel Tower."
Fill in the blank: _______
Complete the text: [prefix] _____ [suffix]")

#https://api-docs.deepseek.com/guides/reasoning_model
import openai

client = openai.OpenAI(api_key="API_KEY", base_url="https://api.deepseek.com/v1")

response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="deepseek-reasoner", #deepseek-r1, deepseek-chat
    messages=[
        {
            "role": "user",
            "content": f"Fill in the blank. Prefix: '{prefix}'; Suffix: '{suffix}'. Only reply with the missing text."
        }
    ],
    temperature=0.6
)
print(response.choices[0].message.content)

@rzgar Oh yeah, damn. This really is the cool and only workaround -- thanks for sharing that. Actually in last Oct-2024 Deepseek-coder was released and it being the "coder" model, it supported the FIM.

Hence, I thought there is maybe some possibility of FIM in this model too!
