### Overview
- Add ability to push data to index from the Emacs, Obsidian client
- Switch to standard mechanism of syncing files via HTTP multi-part/form. Previously we were streaming the data as JSON
- Benefits of new mechanism
- No manual parsing of files to send or receive on clients or server is required as most have in-built mechanisms to send multi-part/form requests
- The whole response is not required to be kept in memory to parse content as JSON. As individual files arrive they're automatically pushed to disk to conserve memory if required
- Binary files don't need to be encoded on client and decoded on server
### Code Details
### Major
- Use multi-part form to receive files to index on server
- Use multi-part form to send files to index on desktop client
- Send files to index on server from the khoj.el emacs client
- Send content for indexing on server at a regular interval from khoj.el
- Send files to index on server from the khoj obsidian client
- Update tests to test multi-part/form method of pushing files to index
#### Minor
- Put indexer API endpoint under /api path segment
- Explicitly make GET request to /config/data from khoj.el:khoj-server-configure method
- Improve emoji, message on content index updated via logger
- Don't call khoj server on khoj.el load, only once khoj invoked explicitly by user
- Improve indexing of binary files
- Let fs_syncer pass PDF files directly as binary before indexing
- Use encoding of each file set in indexer request to read file
- Add CORS policy to khoj server. Allow requests from khoj apps, obsidian & localhost
- Update indexer API endpoint URL to` index/update` from `indexer/batch`
Resolves#471#243
New URL query params, `force' and `t' match name of query parameter in
existing Khoj API endpoints
Update Desktop, Obsidian and Emacs client to call using these new API
query params. Set `client' query param from each client for telemetry
visibility
New URL follows action oriented endpoint naming convention used for
other Khoj API endpoints
Update desktop, obsidian and emacs client to call this new API
endpoint
This prevents Khoj from polling the Khoj server until explicitly
invoked via `khoj' entrypoint function.
Previously it'd make a request to the khoj server every time Emacs or
khoj.el was loaded
Closes#243
- Make `bump_version.sh' script set version for the Khoj desktop app too
- Sync Khoj desktop app authors, license, description and version with
the other interfaces and server
- Update description in packages metadata to match project subtitle on Github
- Pass payloads as unibyte. This was causing the request to fail for
files with unicode characters
- Suppress messages with file content in on index updates
- Fix rendering response from server on index update API call
- Extract code to populate body of index update HTTP request with files
Previously global state of `url-request-method' would affect the
kind of request made to api/config/data API endpoint as it wasn't
being explicitly being set before calling the API endpoint
This was done with the assumption that the default value of GET for
url-request-method wouldn't change globally
But in some cases, experientially, it can get changed. This was
resulting in khoj.el load failing as POST request was being made
instead which would throw error
- Add elisp variable to set API key to engage with the Khoj server
- Use multi-part form to POST the files to index to the indexer API
endpoint on the khoj server
- Improves user experience by aligning idle time with search latency
to avoid display jitter (to render results) while user is typing
- Makes the idle time configurable
Closes#480
* Add support for gpt4all's falcon model as an additional conversation processor
- Update the UI pages to allow the user to point to the new endpoints for GPT
- Update the internal schemas to support both GPT4 models and OpenAI
- Add unit tests benchmarking some of the Falcon performance
* Add exc_info to include stack trace in error logs for text processors
* Pull shared functions into utils.py to be used across gpt4 and gpt
* Add migration for new processor conversation schema
* Skip GPT4All actor tests due to typing issues
* Fix Obsidian processor configuration in auto-configure flow
* Rename enable_local_llm to enable_offline_chat
* Update the /chat endpoint to conditionally support streaming
- If streams are enabled, return the threadgenerator as it does currently
- If stream is disabled, return a JSON response with the response/compiled references separated out
- Correspondingly, update the chat.html UI to use the streamed API, as well as Obsidian
- Rename chat/init/ to chat/history
* Update khoj.el to use the /history endpoint
- Update corresponding unit tests to use stream=true
* Remove & from call to /chat for obsidian
* Abstract functions out into a helpers.py file and clean up some of the error-catching
Khoj will soon get a generic text indexing content type. This along
with a file filter should suffice for searching through Ledger
transactions, if required.
Having a specific content type for niche use-case like ledger isn't
useful. Removing unused content types will reduce khoj code to manage.
Org-music was just a custom content type that worked with org-music.
It was mostly only useful for me.
Cleaning up that code will reduce number of content types for khoj to
manage.
If no content-type selected in transient menu option, khoj.el queries
khoj server without content-type parameter (t) set.
This results in search across all enabled asymmetric search text
content types
