Quick Start with Ollama

1. Download the model files

# Clone this repository
git lfs install
git clone https://huggingface.co/distil-labs/distil-qwen3-4b-text2sql-gguf
cd distil-qwen3-4b-text2sql-gguf

2. Create a Modelfile

Create a file named Modelfile with the following content:

FROM ./model.gguf

TEMPLATE """{{- $lastUserIdx := -1 -}}
{{- range $idx, $msg := .Messages -}}
{{- if eq $msg.Role "user" }}{{ $lastUserIdx = $idx }}{{ end -}}
{{- end }}
{{- if or .System .Tools }}<|im_start|>system
{{ if .System }}{{ .System }}

{{ end }}
{{- if .Tools }}# Tools

You may call one or more functions to assist with the user query.

You are provided with function signatures within <tools></tools> XML tags:
<tools>
{{- range .Tools }}
{"type": "function", "function": {{ .Function }}}
{{- end }}
</tools>

For each function call, return a json object with function name and arguments within <tool_call></tool_call> XML tags:
<tool_call>
{"name": <function-name>, "arguments": <args-json-object>}
</tool_call>
{{- end -}}
<|im_end|>
{{ end }}
{{- range $i, $_ := .Messages }}
{{- $last := eq (len (slice $.Messages $i)) 1 -}}
{{- if eq .Role "user" }}<|im_start|>user
{{ .Content }}<|im_end|>
{{ else if eq .Role "assistant" }}<|im_start|>assistant
{{ if .Content }}{{ .Content }}{{ end }}
{{- if .ToolCalls }}
{{- range .ToolCalls }}
<tool_call>
{"name": "{{ .Function.Name }}", "arguments": {{ .Function.Arguments }}}
</tool_call>
{{- end }}
{{- end }}{{ if not $last }}<|im_end|>
{{ end }}
{{- else if eq .Role "tool" }}<|im_start|>user
<tool_response>
{{ .Content }}
</tool_response><|im_end|>
{{ end }}
{{- if and (ne .Role "assistant") $last }}<|im_start|>assistant
{{ end }}
{{- end }}"""

3. Create and run the model

# Create the Ollama model
ollama create distil-qwen3-4b-text2sql -f Modelfile

# Run the model
ollama run distil-qwen3-4b-text2sql

Usage with Python

from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(base_url="http://127.0.0.1:11434/v1", api_key="EMPTY")

schema = """CREATE TABLE employees (
  id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
  name TEXT NOT NULL,
  department TEXT,
  salary INTEGER
);"""

question = "How many employees earn more than 50000?"

response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="distil-qwen3-4b-text2sql",
    messages=[
        {
            "role": "system",
            "content": """You are given a database schema and a natural language question. Generate the SQL query that answers the question.

Rules:
- Use only tables and columns from the provided schema
- Use uppercase SQL keywords (SELECT, FROM, WHERE, etc.)
- Use SQLite-compatible syntax
- Output only the SQL query, no explanations"""
        },
        {
            "role": "user",
            "content": f"Schema:\n{schema}\n\nQuestion: {question}"
        }
    ],
    temperature=0
)

print(response.choices[0].message.content)
# Output: SELECT COUNT(*) FROM employees WHERE salary > 50000;
