Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/ollama/ollama/issues/280

Just something along these lines:

ollama run <my model> -f input.txt -n <number of runs> -o output.txt

Not essential by any stretch of the imagination but it'd be handy. My use case is being able to batch process prompts by just iterating over a list of text files. At the moment I'm just looking at how to wrap it all up in bash - probably by piping to stdin - but it isn't the easiest thing to know when it has returned.

@mxyng commented on GitHub (Aug 7, 2023):

@jmthackett can you elaborate on the behaviour when ingesting the input file? Is each line a separate prompt or is the entire file expected to be a single prompt?

Based on the issue, a simple script can be the following. Once all runs and all files are processed, the script will return/exit.

Note this will ingest each line in each file as a separate prompt. If you want to ingest the entire file, replace <$FILE with $(cat $FILE)

for FILE in FILES; do
  for N in $(seq <number of runs>); do
    ollama run <my model> <$FILE >$FILE-$N-output.txt
  done
done
