Could you add the `with-as` syntax

[Freakwill]

It is better to add with-syntax

with ollama.Client() as c: pass
...
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
TypeError: 'Client' object does not support the context manager protocol

My approach is (for MacOS)

    def __enter__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        import sh
        sh.brew.services.start.ollama()
        return self

    def __exit__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        import sh
        sh.brew.services.stop.ollama()

The context manager support has been added in commit d1d7040 (Dec 11, 2025) with __exit__ and __aexit__ methods that call self.close().

This is available in the main branch but hasn't been released to PyPI yet (latest release v0.6.1 is from Nov 13, 2025).

# Works on main branch
with Client() as client:
    response = client.chat('llama3.2', messages=[...])
# Client is automatically closed

A new PyPI release would make this feature available to users installing via pip install ollama.

Note: The context manager closes the HTTP client but doesn't start/stop the Ollama service - users are expected to have Ollama running already.

Just opened PR #642 for this — turns out close() and __exit__ were already there, just missing __enter__ and __aenter__ so the with syntax was broken. Should work once merged.
