How to use Ollama in the siderbar?

[NextStep-IM]

Sorry if I missed any instruction or/and if this is a stupid question. I ran ollama run llama3 in the terminal and the model ran successfully, but I don't know what to do with the sidebar.

Under GPT, you should simply be able to select it from the drop-down menu, like any other compatible model. If you wish for it to be the permanent default, the easiest way (and what I do) is placing it first in the services/gpt.js file and renaming it to openai (you'll probably have to comment out the actual openai service though. I do, because I personally don't use it anyways)

that's a more simple answer than i thought
also i should add a config option for default gpt provider and sidebar page order

[Soliprem]

That's a feature I agree would be very nice. I'm not entirely sure of how you'd implement it in terms of UI, though. One interesting idea could be to make changes the order persistent. So the last selected option becomes the default one, even across reloads

oh actually, ai.defaultGPTProvider in user options is already there

[Soliprem]

since it's already there, it'd be nice to find a way to implement it in the UI. For example, by changing the UI. I think the idea of making the selection persistent is easiest. Could probably do so with a sed command in the ProviderSwitcher function, in the modules/sideleft/apis/chatgpt.js file. The sed or awk would be simply tasked to replace the value of _currentProvider to the current id
