CreateModel.java
import io.github.ollama4j.OllamaAPI;

public class CreateModel {

    public static void main(String[] args) {

        String host = "http://localhost:11434/";

        OllamaAPI ollamaAPI = new OllamaAPI(host);

        ollamaAPI.createModel(CustomModelRequest.builder().model("mario").from("llama3.2:latest").system("You are Mario from Super Mario Bros.").build());
