LLMSharp.Anthropic.Tokenizer 2.0.1

LLMSharp Tokenizers

• LLMSharp.Anthropic.Tokenizer : Unofficial implementation of tokenizer for Anthropic claude in dotnet. Install this nuget package for Encoding using Claude Tokenizer.
• LLMSharp.OpenAi.Tokenizer : Unofficial implementation of tokenizer for GPT-3.5/GPT-4 models in dotnet. Install this nuget package for Encoding using GPT Chat Completions Model Tokenizer.

Usage

• Install the latest version of nuget package

dotnet add package LLMSharp.Anthropic.Tokenizer

dotnet add package LLMSharp.OpenAi.Tokenizer

• Create an instance of the tokenizer

// Claude Tokenizer
using LLMSharp.Anthropic.Tokenizer;

var tokenizer = new ClaudeTokenizer();


// OpenAi ChatCompletion Models Tokenizer
using LLMSharp.OpenAi.Tokenizer;

var tokenizer = new OpenAiChatCompletionsTokenizer();

• Encode : tokenizes a given text, this is the default implementation that throws an exception if the text contains any special tokens

var encodedTokens = tokenizer.Encode("hello world");

• CountTokens : count tokens in a given text, this is the default implementation that throws an exception if the text contains any special tokens

var tokenCount = tokenizer.CountTokens("hello world");

• EncodeWithSpecialTokens : tokenizes a given text, including all or specific special tokens

// passing 'null' for allowedSpecial , will help tokenize all special tokens
var encodedBytes = tokenizer.EncodeWithSpecialTokens(
    text:"<META_START>some data<META_END>",
    allowedSpecial: null,
    disallowedSpecial: null);


// passing an array of strings for allowedSpecial , will help tokenize only those special tokens
// any other special tokens found in the text will throw an exception
var encodedBytes = tokenizer.EncodeWithSpecialTokens(
    text:"<META_START>some data<META_END>",
    allowedSpecial: new string[]{"<META_START>", "<META_END>"},
    disallowedSpecial: null);

• CountWithSpecialTokens : count tokens in a given text, including all or specific special tokens

var tokenCount = tokenizer.CountWithSpecialTokens(
    text:"<META_START>some data<META_END>",
    allowedSpecial: new string[]{"<META_START>", "<META_END>"},
    disallowedSpecial: null);
