Python function

download_weight_files

`download_weight_files()`

max.pipelines.download_weight_files(huggingface_model_id, filenames, revision=None, force_download=False, max_workers=8)

source

Downloads weight files for a Hugging Face model and returns local paths.

Parameters:

huggingface_model_id (str) – The Hugging Face model identifier, that is, modularai/Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct-GGUF
filenames (list[str]) – A list of file paths relative to the root of the Hugging Face repo. If files provided are available locally, download is skipped, and the local files are used.
revision (str | None) – The Hugging Face revision to use. If provided, we check our cache directly without needing to go to Hugging Face directly, saving a network call.
force_download (bool) – A boolean, indicating whether we should force the files to be redownloaded, even if they are already available in our local cache, or a provided path.
max_workers (int) – The number of worker threads to concurrently download files.

Return type:

list[Path]
