Add ollama models into the docker starter kit

[Irf_Sul]

Hello everyone,

I am using n8n still few days and it is fantastic.

I want to add different model that llama:latest. I want to use nomic-embed-text model.

I try with
docker exec [container-id] ollama pull [model name] but i have this error

exec failed: unable to start container process: exec: “ollama”: executable file not found in $PATH: unknown

I try to modify docker-config.yml by modifying this line - “sleep 3; ollama pull llama3.2; ollama pull nomic-embed-text”

But when i restart the docker I can not se the new model.

I will very appreciate your help.

Thank you !

Try doing the pull in separate steps to see where things are going wrong.

1. Start a shell session with the ollama container. This will let you find out whether the ollama container is running.
   • docker exec -ti ollama /bin/bash
   • Note: The container name comes from here, so if you changed it, use that.
2. Execute the ollama pull command in the shell (i.e. while still connected to the running container from step 1).
   • ollama pull mistral
     (for example)
