Revision history for HuggingFace::API
0.2.1 2026-04-29T23:44:09+01:00
- Bump Github actions to use node 24+
- New: get-chat-template($model-id, :$revision) — fetch a
model's Jinja chat template, trying chat_template.jinja
first and falling back to extracting chat_template from
tokenizer_config.json. Modern HF uploads ship the template
as a standalone .jinja file; older repos embed it as a
string in the config. Returns Str (undefined) when the
model has neither source.
- New: get-chat-template-to-file($model-id, $output, :$revision)
— variant that writes the resolved template to disk. Returns
the output path on success or IO::Path (undefined) when no
template was found, leaving the target untouched.
- New: extract-chat-template-from-config($json) — exported sub
that parses a tokenizer_config.json payload and returns the
template string. Handles both the bare-string form and the
list-of-{name, template} form (Cohere Command A and similar
multi-template repos). Selects the entry named "default"
when present, falling back to the first list entry.
0.2.0 2026-04-24T06:05:51+01:00
- New: get-file($model-id, $filename, :$revision) — download
any file from a HuggingFace repo as text. Generalises the
existing tokenizer-only downloads to arbitrary filenames.
- New: get-file-blob($model-id, $filename, :$revision) —
binary-safe variant that returns a Blob. Required for
anything that isn't UTF-8 text (ONNX weights, safetensors,
tarballs); text decode corrupts non-UTF8 bytes.
- New: get-file-to-file($model-id, $filename, $output,
:$revision) — streams the file to disk, binary-safe. Used
by LLM::Classifiers::Emotions's Build.rakumod to fetch the
pinned go-emotions model files at install time.
- Existing get-tokenizer / get-tokenizer-to-file /
get-tokenizer-config / get-tokenizer-config-to-file now
accept a :$revision parameter (default 'main' for
back-compat). Consumers that want a reproducible install
should pin a specific commit SHA — matters when models
get updated and you want deterministic behaviour across
installs.
- All signatures add optional parameters with safe defaults;
0.1.x callers (App-Kelpie, App-Cantina) work unchanged.
- Version bump to 0.2.0 — new methods, no removals, no
behaviour changes to existing ones.
