Ollama Maven Plugin

A Maven plugin to automatically launch an Ollama instance using Docker as part of the Maven build lifecycle.

Requirements

• Docker must be installed and running

Building

• mvn clean install

Usage

• The plugin can be added as part of a profile that launches ollama and then your own plugins/apps. Change the execution phase and goals as needed.
• The configuration allows for changing the Ollama image, mapped port, the container name and the model to pull in automatically if it isn't found.
• You can also specify via cleanOnStartup that the container should be stopped and removed every time the plugin starts, which can be useful for starting off on a clean slate every time.
