miss chat template file?
no chat template in tokenizer_config.json file, could we use the file provided in V3.2-exp
but tool call changed a lot
I tried the v3.2-exp template, and it looks normal in scenarios not involving tool calls.
Is there anyone have a solution?
Quoting from the README:
import transformers
# encoding/encoding_dsv32.py
from encoding_dsv32 import encode_messages, parse_message_from_completion_text
tokenizer = transformers.AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V3.2")
messages = [
{"role": "user", "content": "hello"},
{"role": "assistant", "content": "Hello! I am DeepSeek.", "reasoning_content": "thinking..."},
{"role": "user", "content": "1+1=?"}
]
encode_config = dict(thinking_mode="thinking", drop_thinking=True, add_default_bos_token=True)
# messages -> string
prompt = encode_messages(messages, **encode_config)
# Output: "<|begin▁of▁sentence|><|User|>hello<|Assistant|></think>Hello! I am DeepSeek.<|end▁of▁sentence|><|User|>1+1=?<|Assistant|><think>"
# string -> tokens
tokens = tokenizer.encode(prompt)
# Output: [0, 128803, 33310, 128804, 128799, 19923, 3, 342, 1030, 22651, 4374, 1465, 16, 1, 128803, 19, 13, 19, 127252, 128804, 128798]
This release does not include a Jinja-format chat template. Please refer to the Python code mentioned above.
The encode_messagesfunction acts roughly the same way as a typical Jinja2 chat template, where given messages and other args, in return, you'll get the "rendered" prompt string that you can send for Completions. A slight thing to look out for are for tool definitions, response format, etc, where this new approach defines them as messages attributes.
I encourage you to read through the render_messages() function. It is very intuitive and easy to read. For me personally, this is a better approach and is better than reading through Jinja2 template. For the most part, the encoding_dsv32.py file still contains quite a lot of template strings. But the logic and branching is easier to read through and debug, because all is done in standard Python.
Hope this helps.
