Using vLLM

You can deploy Qianfan-VL using vLLM's official Docker image for high-performance inference with an OpenAI-compatible API:

Start vLLM Service

bash

docker run -d --name qianfan-vl \
  --gpus all \
  -v /path/to/Qianfan-VL-8B:/model \
  -p 8000:8000 \
  --ipc=host \
  vllm/vllm-openai:latest \
  --model /model \
  --served-model-name qianfan-vl \
  --trust-remote-code \
  --hf-overrides '{"architectures":["InternVLChatModel"],"model_type":"internvl_chat"}'

Call the API

bash

curl 'http://127.0.0.1:8000/v1/chat/completions' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{
    "model": "qianfan-vl",
    "messages": [
      {
        "role": "user",
        "content": [
          {
            "type": "image_url",
            "image_url": {
              "url": "https://qianfan-public-demo.bj.bcebos.com/qianfan-vl/2509/images/scene_ocr.png"
            }
          },
          {
            "type": "text",
            "text": "<image>请识别图中所有文字"
          }
        ]
      }
    ]
  }'

Or use Python with OpenAI SDK:

python

from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(
    api_key="EMPTY",
    base_url="http://127.0.0.1:8000/v1"
)

response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="qianfan-vl",
    messages=[
        {
            "role": "user",
            "content": [
                {
                    "type": "image_url",
                    "image_url": {"url": "https://qianfan-public-demo.bj.bcebos.com/qianfan-vl/2509/images/scene_ocr.png"}
                },
                {
                    "type": "text",
                    "text": "<image>请描述这张图片"
                }
            ]
        }
    ],
    max_tokens=512
)
print(response.choices[0].message.content)
