This tutorial demonstrates how to manually set up a workflow for loading, embedding, and storing documents using GPT4All and Chroma DB, without the need for Langchain.
Ensure you have the following packages installed:
pip install gpt4all chromadb requests beautifulsoup4
We start by fetching a document from a web source and splitting it into smaller chunks for easier processing.
import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
def fetch_document(url):
response = requests.get(url)
soup = BeautifulSoup(response.content, 'html.parser')
return soup.get_text()
def split_text(text, chunk_size=500):
return [text[i:i+chunk_size] for i in range(0, len(text), chunk_size)]
# Example usage
url = "https://example.com/document"
document_text = fetch_document(url)
chunks = split_text(document_text)
Now, we embed each text chunk using GPT4All.
# Hypothetical example for GPT4All embedding
from gpt4all import GPT4AllEmbedding
embedder = GPT4AllEmbedding()
embedded_chunks = [embedder.embed(chunk) for chunk in chunks]
We then store these embeddings in a Chroma DB instance for later retrieval.
from chromadb import ChromaDB
db = ChromaDB("path_to_your_database")
for i, embedding in enumerate(embedded_chunks):
db.store(embedding, document_id=i)
Finally, implement a function for similarity search within the stored embeddings.
def search_similar_documents(query, embedder, db, top_n=5):
query_embedding = embedder.embed(query)
similar_docs = db.search(query_embedding, top_n=top_n)
return similar_docs
# Example usage
query = "Your search query"
similar_documents = search_similar_documents(query, embedder, db)
This approach allows for a flexible and manual control over the entire document embedding and retrieval process, making it ideal for custom implementations not reliant on Langchain.
can you please show the plain gpt4all embeddings and chroma db implementation, without any langchain support, we just wanted to know for higher intuition.
