** Setup
/Make sure [[https://realpython.com/installing-python/][python]] (version 3.10 or lower) and [[https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installation/][pip]] are installed on your machine/
- /Make sure [[https://realpython.com/installing-python/][python]] (version 3.10 or lower) and [[https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installation/][pip]] are installed on your machine/
*** 1. Setup Backend
#+begin_src shell
pip install khoj-assistant && khoj
#+end_src
- /khoj.el attempts to automatically install, start and configure the khoj server./
If this fails, follow [[https://github.com/debanjum/khoj/tree/master/#Setup][these instructions]] to manually setup the khoj server.
*** 2. Install Khoj.el
**** Using MELPA
#+begin_src elisp
*** Direct Install
#+begin_src elisp
M-x package-install khoj
#+end_src elisp
#+end_src
Add below snippet to your Emacs config file
#+begin_src elisp
;; Install Khoj Package from MELPA Stable
(use-package khoj
:ensure t
:pin melpa-stable
:bind ("C-c s" . 'khoj))
#+end_src
*** Minimal Install
Add below snippet to your Emacs config file.
Indexes your org-agenda files, by default.
Note: Install ~khoj.el~ from MELPA (instead of MELPA Stable) if you installed the pre-release version of khoj
- That is, use ~:pin melpa~ to install khoj.el in above snippet if khoj was installed with ~pip install --pre khoj-assistant~
- Else use ~:pin melpa-stable~ to install khoj.el in above snippet if khoj was installed with ~pip install khoj-assistant~
- This ensures both khoj.el and khoj app are from the same version (tagged or latest)
#+begin_src elisp
;; Install Khoj Package from MELPA Stable
(use-package khoj
:ensure t
:pin melpa-stable
:bind ("C-c s" . 'khoj)
#+end_src
- Note: Install ~khoj.el~ from MELPA (instead of MELPA Stable) if you installed the pre-release version of khoj
- That is, use ~:pin melpa~ to install khoj.el in above snippet if khoj server was installed with ~--pre~ flag, i.e ~pip install --pre khoj-assistant~
- Else use ~:pin melpa-stable~ to install khoj.el in above snippet if khoj was installed with ~pip install khoj-assistant~
- This ensures both khoj.el and khoj app are from the same version (git tagged or latest)

;; This package provides a natural, incremental search interface to your
;; `org-mode' notes, `markdown' files, `beancount' transactions and images.
;; It is a wrapper that interfaces with the Khoj server.
;; The server exposes an API for advanced search using transformer ML models.
;; The Khoj server needs to be running to use this package.
;; See the repository docs for detailed setup of the Khoj server.
;; Create a search assistant for your `org-mode', `markdown' notes,
;; `beancount' transactions and images. This package exposes two
