For pretraining, there is no prompt template or roles. The only required field is `text`:
|
|
|
|
```{.json filename="data.jsonl"}
|
|
{"text": "first row"}
|
|
{"text": "second row"}
|
|
...
|
|
```

### Streaming is recommended for large datasets
|
|
|
|
Axolotl usually loads the entire dataset into memory. This will be challenging for large datasets. Use the following config to enable streaming:
|
|
|
|
```{.yaml filename="config.yaml"}
|
|
pretraining_dataset: # hf path only
|
|
...
|
|
```
