Updated titles into a consistent format. Fixed links to the diagrams. Fixed typos. Note: The Templates menu in the navbar is now sorted by the file names. I'll try sorting the navbar menus by the page titles, not the page file names.

# RAG - Ollama - multi-query
|
|
|
|
This template performs RAG using `Ollama` and `OpenAI` with a multi-query retriever.
|
|
|
|
The `multi-query retriever` is an example of query transformation, generating multiple queries from different perspectives based on the user's input query.
|
|
|
|
For each query, it retrieves a set of relevant documents and takes the unique union across all queries for answer synthesis.
|
|
|
|
We use a private, local LLM for the narrow task of query generation to avoid excessive calls to a larger LLM API.
|
|
|
|
See an example trace for Ollama LLM performing the query expansion [here](https://smith.langchain.com/public/8017d04d-2045-4089-b47f-f2d66393a999/r).
|
|
|
|
But we use OpenAI for the more challenging task of answer synthesis (full trace example [here](https://smith.langchain.com/public/ec75793b-645b-498d-b855-e8d85e1f6738/r)).
|
|
|
|
## Environment Setup
|
|
|
|
To set up the environment, you need to download Ollama.
|
|
|
|
Follow the instructions [here](https://python.langchain.com/docs/integrations/chat/ollama).
|
|
|
|
You can choose the desired LLM with Ollama.
|
|
|
|
This template uses `zephyr`, which can be accessed using `ollama pull zephyr`.
|
|
|
|
There are many other options available [here](https://ollama.ai/library).
|
|
|
|
Set the `OPENAI_API_KEY` environment variable to access the OpenAI models.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
To use this package, you should first install the LangChain CLI:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
pip install -U langchain-cli
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To create a new LangChain project and install this package, do:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
langchain app new my-app --package rag-ollama-multi-query
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To add this package to an existing project, run:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
langchain app add rag-ollama-multi-query
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
And add the following code to your `server.py` file:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
from rag_ollama_multi_query import chain as rag_ollama_multi_query_chain
|
|
|
|
add_routes(app, rag_ollama_multi_query_chain, path="/rag-ollama-multi-query")
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
(Optional) Now, let's configure LangSmith. LangSmith will help us trace, monitor, and debug LangChain applications. You can sign up for LangSmith [here](https://smith.langchain.com/). If you don't have access, you can skip this section
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
export LANGCHAIN_TRACING_V2=true
|
|
export LANGCHAIN_API_KEY=<your-api-key>
|
|
export LANGCHAIN_PROJECT=<your-project> # if not specified, defaults to "default"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you are inside this directory, then you can spin up a LangServe instance directly by:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
langchain serve
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will start the FastAPI app with a server running locally at [http://localhost:8000](http://localhost:8000)
|
|
|
|
You can see all templates at [http://127.0.0.1:8000/docs](http://127.0.0.1:8000/docs)
|
|
You can access the playground at [http://127.0.0.1:8000/rag-ollama-multi-query/playground](http://127.0.0.1:8000/rag-ollama-multi-query/playground)
|
|
|
|
To access the template from code, use:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
from langserve.client import RemoteRunnable
|
|
|
|
runnable = RemoteRunnable("http://localhost:8000/rag-ollama-multi-query")
|
|
``` |
