FastEmbedEmbeddingFunction

class FastEmbedEmbeddingFunction(EmbeddingFunction)

Embedding function implementation using FastEmbed - https://qdrant.github.io/fastembed.

__init__

def __init__(model_name: str = "BAAI/bge-small-en-v1.5",
             batch_size: int = 256,
             cache_dir: Optional[str] = None,
             threads: Optional[int] = None,
             parallel: Optional[int] = None,
             **kwargs)

Initialize fastembed.TextEmbedding.

Arguments:

  • model_name str - The name of the model to use. Defaults to "BAAI/bge-small-en-v1.5".
  • batch_size int - Batch size for encoding. Higher values will use more memory, but be faster. Defaults to 256.
  • cache_dir str, optional - The path to the model cache directory. Can also be set using the FASTEMBED_CACHE_PATH env variable.
  • threads int, optional - The number of threads single onnxruntime session can use.
  • parallel int, optional - If >1, data-parallel encoding will be used, recommended for large datasets. If 0, use all available cores. If None, don’t use data-parallel processing, use default onnxruntime threading. Defaults to None.
  • **kwargs - Additional options to pass to fastembed.TextEmbedding

Raises:

  • ValueError - If the model_name is not in the format <org>/<model> e.g. BAAI/bge-small-en-v1.5.

QdrantVectorDB

class QdrantVectorDB(VectorDB)

A vector database implementation that uses Qdrant as the backend.

__init__

def __init__(*,
             client=None,
             embedding_function: EmbeddingFunction = None,
             content_payload_key: str = "_content",
             metadata_payload_key: str = "_metadata",
             collection_options: dict = \{},
             **kwargs) -> None

Initialize the vector database.

Arguments:

  • client - qdrant_client.QdrantClient | An instance of QdrantClient.
  • embedding_function - Callable | The embedding function used to generate the vector representation of the documents. Defaults to FastEmbedEmbeddingFunction.
  • collection_options - dict | The options for creating the collection.
  • kwargs - dict | Additional keyword arguments.

create_collection

def create_collection(collection_name: str,
                      overwrite: bool = False,
                      get_or_create: bool = True) -> None

Create a collection in the vector database. Case 1. if the collection does not exist, create the collection. Case 2. the collection exists, if overwrite is True, it will overwrite the collection. Case 3. the collection exists and overwrite is False, if get_or_create is True, it will get the collection, otherwise it raise a ValueError.

Arguments:

  • collection_name - str | The name of the collection.
  • overwrite - bool | Whether to overwrite the collection if it exists. Default is False.
  • get_or_create - bool | Whether to get the collection if it exists. Default is True.

Returns:

Any | The collection object.

get_collection

def get_collection(collection_name: str = None)

Get the collection from the vector database.

Arguments:

  • collection_name - str | The name of the collection.

Returns:

Any | The collection object.

delete_collection

def delete_collection(collection_name: str) -> None

Delete the collection from the vector database.

Arguments:

  • collection_name - str | The name of the collection.

Returns:

Any

insert_docs

def insert_docs(docs: list[Document],
                collection_name: str = None,
                upsert: bool = False) -> None

Insert documents into the collection of the vector database.

Arguments:

  • docs - List[Document] | A list of documents. Each document is a TypedDict Document.
  • collection_name - str | The name of the collection. Default is None.
  • upsert - bool | Whether to update the document if it exists. Default is False.
  • kwargs - Dict | Additional keyword arguments.

Returns:

None

delete_docs

def delete_docs(ids: list[ItemID],
                collection_name: str = None,
                **kwargs) -> None

Delete documents from the collection of the vector database.

Arguments:

  • ids - List[ItemID] | A list of document ids. Each id is a typed ItemID.
  • collection_name - str | The name of the collection. Default is None.
  • kwargs - Dict | Additional keyword arguments.

Returns:

None

retrieve_docs

def retrieve_docs(queries: list[str],
                  collection_name: str = None,
                  n_results: int = 10,
                  distance_threshold: float = 0,
                  **kwargs) -> QueryResults

Retrieve documents from the collection of the vector database based on the queries.

Arguments:

  • collection_name - str | The name of the collection. Default is None.
  • n_results - int | The number of relevant documents to return. Default is 10.
  • distance_threshold - float | The threshold for the distance score, only distance smaller than it will be returned. Don’t filter with it if < 0. Default is 0.
  • kwargs - Dict | Additional keyword arguments.

Returns:

QueryResults | The query results. Each query result is a list of list of tuples containing the document and the distance.

get_docs_by_ids

def get_docs_by_ids(ids: list[ItemID] = None,
                    collection_name: str = None,
                    include=True,
                    **kwargs) -> list[Document]
