Provide natural language search on user personal content like notes, images using ML models

All data is processed locally. User can interface with semantic-search app via Emacs, API or Commandline

Dependencies

• Python3
• Miniconda

Install

git clone https://github.com/debanjum/semantic-search && cd semantic-search
conda env create -f environment.yml
conda activate semantic-search

Setup

Generate compressed JSONL from specified org-mode files

python3 processor/org-mode/org-to-jsonl.py \
--org-files "Schedule.org" "Incoming.org" \
--org-directory "~/Notes" \
--jsonl-file ".data/notes.jsonl" \
--compress \
--verbose

Run

Load ML model, generate embeddings and expose API interface to run user queries on above org-mode files

python3 main.py -j .data/notes.jsonl.gz -e .data/notes_embeddings.pt

Use

• Calls Semantic Search via Emacs

  • M-x semantic-search "<user-query>"
  • C-c C-s

• Call Semantic Search via API

  • GET http://localhost:8000/search?q="What is the meaning of life"

• Call Semantic Search via Python Script Directly

  python3 search_types/asymmetric.py \
  -j .data/notes.jsonl.gz \
  -e .data/notes_embeddings.pt \
  -n 5 \
  --verbose \
  --interactive
