A library to interact with Amazon Bedrock models

Why this library?

Amazon Bedrock provides a generic API to invoke models, but let's the user to correctly format prompts and know all the names and formats for the parameters to be passed to the model. This library provide utility functions to simplify working with the model exposed via Bedrock in the following way:

1. Idiomatic APIs
2. Generic builder function to create the correct instance of the model class based on model id
3. Formatting of prompts according to model requirements (eg Claude and Llama2Chat)
4. Completion interface (generate) and chat interface (chat) supporting a common multi turn conversations and system prompt structure
5. Automatic parsing of the model responses

Installation

pnpm add @mirai73/bedrock-fm

npm install @mirai73/bedrock-fm

yarn add @mirai73/bedrock-fm

Usage

You can use the models to get full responses or streaming responses. Both APIs are asynchronous.

While it is possible to create models using the model family class, eg

const claude = new Claude("...");

there is currently no type check that the modelId specified is compatible with the model class, and an error will be raised only at runtime.

I strongly advice to use the fromModelId() method that returns the correct class from the model id.

Models Since Amazon Bedrock might add new models at any time, we decided that was better to let modelId be any string as long as they are compatible with existing providers, that is their input/output invocation format is the same. We are also providing an helper Model that defines constants for all models and gets updated on a regular basis.

Model specific parameters

This library exposes the most common parameters for all models, but each model might support additional specific parameters.

These model specific parameters can be passed to the model via the modelArgs parameter, either at model creation time or at invocation time.

When using fromModelId static method to create the model from the model id, modelArgs is untyped and will accept any object.

When creating the model from the respective class, the chat and generate methods expose a typed modelArgs parameter.

Full response

import { fromModelId } from "@mirai73/bedrock-fm";

const fm = fromModelId("amazon.titan-text-express-v1", {
  credentials: {},
  region: "us-east-1",
});

(async () => {
  const resp = await fm.generate("Hello!");
  console.log(resp[0]);
})();

Streaming response

import { fromModelId } from "@mirai73/bedrock-fm";

const fm = fromModelId("amazon.titan-text-express-v1", {
  credentials: {},
  region: "us-east-1",
});

(async () => {
  const resp = await fm.generateStream("Hello!");
  for await (const chunk of resp) {
    console.log(chunk);
  }
})();

Chat

Certain models, like Llama2 Chat or Claude require specific prompts structures when dealing with chat usecases. Creating the correct prompt for hand can be tedious and error prone. The chat completion method allows to easily interact with models when chatting.

A chat is set up via a sequence of ChatMessages:

const messages: ChatMessage[] = [];
messages.push({ role: "system", message: "You are a conversational bot" });
messages.push({ role: "human", message: "What is your name?" });
messages.push({ role: "ai", message: "My name is Bean" });
messages.push({ role: "human", message: "What did you say your name was?" });

The last message role should always be "human".

Call the foundation model with

const aiResponse = await fm.chat(messages);
console.log(aiReponse.message);

To continue the conversation, just add the response to the chat history followed by the new user query:

messages.push(aiResponse);
// collect userQuery
messages.push({ role: "ai", message: userQuery });

Obtaining raw responses from the models

If you are interested in model specific output values, you can pass the parameter rawResponse: true either as part of the creation of the model or when calling chat or generate messages.

import { Models, fromModelId } from "@mirai73/bedrock-fm";

const fm = fromModelId(Models.COHERE_COMMAND_R_V1_0 , {
  region: "us-east-1",
  rawResponse: true;
});

fm.chat([role: "user", message: "Hello"]).then((r: ChatMessage) => {console.log(r.message, r.metadata);});

Image Generation

You can use this library to generate images from Text.

import { ImageModels, StableDiffusionXL } from "@mirai73/bedrock-fm";

const fm = new StableDiffusionXL(ImageModels.STABILITY_STABLE_DIFFUSION_XL_V1, {
  region: "us-east-1",
});

const resp = await fm.generateImage("a nice hike in a forest", {
  width: 512,
  height: 512,
});

// resp[0] contains an image URI with image data encoded in base64

Prompting StableDiffusion

To prompt stable diffusion you can use the following style:

car, street, neon lights (golden hour:1.4) NEGATIVE: clouds (skyscrapers: 1.4)

Prompting Nova Canvas

Nova Canvas supports multiple generative modes. In order to simplify the use of such modes, this library exposes extensions to the textual prompt.

For example to generate an image you can use the following prompt:

house on the hills, facing south, dusk NEGATIVE(clouds, trees)

import { ImageModels, NovaCanvas } from "@mirai73/bedrock-fm";

const fm = new NovaCanvas(ImageModels.AMAZON_NOVA_CANVAS_V1_0, {
  region: "us-east-1",
});

const resp = await fm.generateImage(
  "house on the hills, facing south, dusk NEGATIVE(clouds, trees) | size:512x512, seed:5",
);

// resp contains one or more image

The NEGATIVE instruction translates to Nova negativeText generation parameter. Based on the instructions, the library determines the type of generation to use.

Supported tags are:

• NEGATIVE(<text>): defines the negative text. Can be used in all modalities

• SIMILARITY:<float> : triggers the generation of similar images to the reference one. An image must be provided

• CONDITION(CANNY_EDGES|SEGMENTATION:<strength>): creates an images conditioned on another image with a given strength. An image must be provided

• REMOVE_BACKGROUD: removes the background of the image

• MASK(<text>): define a mask prompt and trigger the INPAINTING mode. If no other prompt is defined it will remove the object described by the mask, otherwise will replace it An image must be provided

• OUTPAINT(DEFAULT|PRECISE): truggers outpainting more and must be used with MASK. An image must be also provided

• COLORS(#000000 #AABBCC): defines a list of colors to guide the image generation. If specified will override any other mode an image must be provided

You can also specify inference parameter to control the generation. Use a | (vertical pipe) at the end of the instructions and add the specific parameter keys and values.

For example:

<instructions> | size:320x320, seed:4, scale:4, n:6

Video Generation

This library supports video generation via Nova Reel.

const fm = NovaReel(Models.VideoModels.AMAZON_NOVA_REEL_V1_0, {});

const reponse = await fm.generateVideo("dolly forward", {
  image: "data:image/png;base64,...",
});

console.log(response.s3Uri);

This call can take few minutes to return.

If you want to check for the completion of the generation yourself, you can execute the same command by passing rawOutput: true as paramter. It will then return the inference id arn.

You can use that value to check for the completion via:

await fm.getResult(inferenceId);
