Synopsis
ramalama info [options]
Description
Display configuration information in a json format. Use --shortnames to list available shortnames.
Options
--help, -h
show this help message and exit
--shortnames
Print the available shortnames and exit. Each entry includes the source of the configuration file.
FIELDS
The Accelerator field indicates the accelerator type for the machine.
The Config field shows the list of paths to RamaLama configuration files used.
The Engine field indicates the OCI container engine used to launch the container in which to run the AI Model
The Image field indicates the default container image in which to run the AI Model
The RagImage field indicates the default container image used when running RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation) workloads.
The Runtimes field lists the currently selected inference engine runtime and all available runtime plugins. For example:
llama.cppvllmmlx
The Selinux field indicates if SELinux is activated or not.
The Shortnames field shows the used list of configuration files specifying AI Model short names as well as the merged list of shortnames. The Shortnames.Sources map indicates which configuration file provided each shortname.
The Store field indicates the directory path where RamaLama stores its persistent data, including downloaded models, configuration files, and cached data. By default, this is located in the user's local share directory.
The Toolbox field indicates whether RamaLama is running inside a Fedora Toolbox (or similar) environment. When true and flatpak-spawn is available, container engine commands and GPU/accelerator detection tooling are automatically proxied to the host via flatpak-spawn --host, and host CDI configuration is read via the /run/host mount.
The UseContainer field indicates whether RamaLama will use containers or run the AI Models natively.
The Version field shows the RamaLama version.
