rag-chroma-private

RAG - Chroma, Ollama, Gpt4all - private

This template performs RAG with no reliance on external APIs.

It utilizes Ollama the LLM, GPT4All for embeddings, and Chroma for the vectorstore.

The vectorstore is created in chain.py and by default indexes a popular blog posts on Agents for question-answering.

Environment Setup

To set up the environment, you need to download Ollama.

Follow the instructions here.

You can choose the desired LLM with Ollama.

This template uses llama2:7b-chat, which can be accessed using ollama pull llama2:7b-chat.

There are many other options available here.

This package also uses GPT4All embeddings.

Usage

To use this package, you should first have the LangChain CLI installed:

pip install -U langchain-cli

To create a new LangChain project and install this as the only package, you can do:

langchain app new my-app --package rag-chroma-private

If you want to add this to an existing project, you can just run:

langchain app add rag-chroma-private

And add the following code to your server.py file:

from rag_chroma_private import chain as rag_chroma_private_chain

add_routes(app, rag_chroma_private_chain, path="/rag-chroma-private")

(Optional) Let's now configure LangSmith. LangSmith will help us trace, monitor and debug LangChain applications. You can sign up for LangSmith here. If you don't have access, you can skip this section

export LANGCHAIN_TRACING_V2=true
export LANGCHAIN_API_KEY=<your-api-key>
export LANGCHAIN_PROJECT=<your-project>  # if not specified, defaults to "default"

If you are inside this directory, then you can spin up a LangServe instance directly by:

langchain serve

This will start the FastAPI app with a server is running locally at http://localhost:8000

We can see all templates at http://127.0.0.1:8000/docs We can access the playground at http://127.0.0.1:8000/rag-chroma-private/playground

We can access the template from code with:

from langserve.client import RemoteRunnable

runnable = RemoteRunnable("http://localhost:8000/rag-chroma-private")

The package will create and add documents to the vector database in chain.py. By default, it will load a popular blog post on agents. However, you can choose from a large number of document loaders here.
