Notes

You can spawn Ollama first and then download the respective LLM models via docker exec. Alternatively, spawn the whole stack directly and download LLM models within Open WebUI using a browser.

# spawn ollama and ui
docker compose up -d

# (optional) download an llm model via docker exec
docker exec ollama ollama run llama3:8b

Afterwards, we can browse Open WebUI on http://127.0.0.1:8080 and register our first user account. You may want to disable open user registration later on by uncommenting the env ENABLE_SIGNUP variable and restarting the Open WebUI container.

Tip

You likely want to pass a GPU into the Ollama container. Please read this.

Windows WSL 2 Setup

  1. Enable Nested/Hardware Virtualization in your BIOS
  2. Install Nvidia drivers for Windows
  3. Install Docker Desktop for Windows

Then open an administrative PowerShell and proceed as follows:

# install wsl
wsl --install

# configure wsl 2 as default
wsl --set-default-version 2

# install ubuntu
wsl --install -d ubuntu

After Ubuntu installation, you are prompted for a username and password.

Afterwards, you will find youself in a Ubuntu terminal.

Windows Docker Desktop Setup

Open Docker Desktop and enable WSL 2 via the setting Use WSL 2 based engine:

Then open Resources > WSL Integration and enable Docker for your Ubuntu WSL VM(s):

WSL 2 Ubuntu Setup

After Docker Desktop adjustments, return to the PowerShell with your Ubuntu terminal.

Proceed in Ubuntu terminal with the following commands from Ollama documentation:

# add repo
curl -fsSL https://nvidia.github.io/libnvidia-container/gpgkey \
    | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /usr/share/keyrings/nvidia-container-toolkit-keyring.gpg
curl -s -L https://nvidia.github.io/libnvidia-container/stable/deb/nvidia-container-toolkit.list \
    | sed 's#deb https://#deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/nvidia-container-toolkit-keyring.gpg] https://#g' \
    | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nvidia-container-toolkit.list
sudo apt-get update

# install nvidia container toolkit
sudo apt-get install -y nvidia-container-toolkit

# add your user to docker group
sudo usermod -aG docker <your-username>
newgrp docker

# test docker and compose
docker -v
docker compose -v

Warning

You likely have to restart Docker Desktop and re-open the Ubuntu WSL VM

Now you can make use of Docker in your WSL 2 Ubuntu VM.

  1. Store the docker-compose.yml from this repo into your WSL 2 Ubuntu VM
  2. Start the Docker stack consisting of Ollama and OpenWebUI
docker compose up -d

Afterwards, you can open a web browser of your choice on your Windows and browse http://127.0.0.1:8080.

You will be greeted by OpenWebUI and must setup your administrative user account.

Afterwards:

  1. Browse the settings at http://127.0.0.1:8080/admin/settings
  2. Visit the Connections area
  3. Disable OpenAI API
  4. Click the Manage download button at Ollama and download your preferred models (see https://ollama.com/library)
