Emoji icons have already been added to the Search, Chat and Settings
top navigation menu in the desktop client. This change adds these to
the web client as well
Improves readability as name has closer match to underlying
constructs
- Entry is any atomic item indexed by Khoj. This can be an org-mode
entry, a markdown section, a PDF or Notion page etc.
- Embeddings are semantic vectors generated by the search ML model
that encodes for meaning contained in an entries text.
- An "Entry" contains "Embeddings" vectors but also other metadata
about the entry like filename etc.
- Add a productionized setup for the Khoj server using `gunicorn` with multiple workers for handling requests
- Add a new Dockerfile meant for production config at `ghcr.io/khoj-ai/khoj:prod`; the existing Docker config should remain the same
### ✨ New
- Use API keys to authenticate from Desktop, Obsidian, Emacs clients
- Create API, UI on web app config page to CRUD API Keys
- Create user API keys table and functions to CRUD them in Database
### 🧪 Improve
- Default to better search model, [gte-small](https://huggingface.co/thenlper/gte-small), to improve search quality
- Only load chat model to GPU if enough space, throw error on load failure
- Show encoding progress, truncate headings to max chars supported
- Add instruction to create db in Django DB setup Readme
### ⚙️ Fix
- Fix error handling when configure offline chat via Web UI
- Do not warn in anon mode about Google OAuth env vars not being set
- Fix path to load static files when server started from project root
- Add a data model which allows us to store Conversations with users. This does a minimal lift over the current setup, where the underlying data is stored in a JSON file. This maintains parity with that configuration.
- There does _seem_ to be some regression in chat quality, which is most likely attributable to search results.
This will help us with #275. It should become much easier to maintain multiple Conversations in a given table in the backend now. We will have to do some thinking on the UI.
- Make most routes conditional on authentication *if anonymous mode is not enabled*. If anonymous mode is enabled, it scaffolds a default user and uses that for all application interactions.
- Add a basic login page and add routes for redirecting the user if logged in
- Partition configuration for indexing local data based on user accounts
- Store indexed data in an underlying postgres db using the `pgvector` extension
- Add migrations for all relevant user data and embeddings generation. Very little performance optimization has been done for the lookup time
- Apply filters using SQL queries
- Start removing many server-level configuration settings
- Configure GitHub test actions to run during any PR. Update the test action to run in a containerized environment with a DB.
- Update the Docker image and docker-compose.yml to work with the new application design
- Offline chat models outputing gibberish when loaded onto some GPU.
GPU support with Vulkan in GPT4All seems a bit buggy
- This change mitigates the upstream issue by allowing user to
manually disable using GPU for offline chat
Closes#516
GPT4all now supports gguf llama.cpp chat models. Latest
GPT4All (+mistral) performs much at least 3x faster.
On Macbook Pro at ~10s response start time vs 30s-120s earlier.
Mistral is also a better chat model, although it hallucinates more
than llama-2
Ignore .org, .pdf etc. suffixed directories under `input-filter' from
being evaluated as files.
Explicitly filter results by input-filter globs to only index files,
not directory for each text type
Add test to prevent regression
Closes#448
On Windows, the default locale isn't utf8. Khoj had regressed to
reading files in OS specified locale encoding, e.g cp1252, cp949 etc.
It now explicitly uses utf8 encoding to read text files for indexing
Resolves#495, resolves#472
* Changed globbing. Now doesn't clobber a users glob if they want to add it, but will (if just given a directory), add a recursive glob.
Note: python's glob engine doesn't support `{}` globing, a future option is to warn if that is included.
* Fix typo in globformat variable
* Use older glob pattern for plaintext files

### 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
Using fetch from Khoj Obsidian plugin was failing due to cross-origin
request and method: no-cors didn't allow passing x-api-key custom
header. And using Obsidian's request with multi-part/form-data wasn't
possible either.
- Keep state of previously synced files to identify files to be deleted
- Last synced files stored in settings for persistence of this data
across Obsidian reboots
Use the multi-part/form-data request to sync Markdown, PDF files in
vault to index on khoj server
Run scheduled job to push updates to value for indexing every 1 hour
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
Previously lookback turns was set to a static 2. But now that we
support more chat models, their prompt size vary considerably.
Make lookback_turns proportional to max_prompt_size. The truncate_messages
can remove messages if they exceed max_prompt_size later
This lets Khoj pass more of the chat history as context for models
with larger context window
