The backend import package is now docsgpt, the name it will carry on PyPI;
application was far too generic to install into anyone's site-packages.
git mv plus a mechanical rewrite of every import, dotted string and path
reference: 734 Python files, the compose files, Dockerfile, workflows, docs,
setup scripts, devcontainer, k8s manifests, vscode config, pytest and coverage
config, .gitignore. Behaviour is unchanged.
Kept for one release:
- A top-level application package whose meta-path finder resolves
application.x.y to the already-imported docsgpt.x.y object, so old imports
and entry points (celery -A application.app.celery,
uvicorn application.asgi:asgi_app) keep working with a FutureWarning.
- Celery registers every application.* task name as an alias of its
docsgpt.* task on start-up, so messages queued by the previous release still
run. The redbeat key prefix moves to redbeat:docsgpt:v2: so schedule entries
the previous release wrote are left unread instead of firing twice.
The backend image builds from the repository root (docker build -f
docsgpt/Dockerfile .) so it can ship the alias package; a root .dockerignore
allow-lists docsgpt/ and application/ and keeps caches, local data, .env
files, the sample index files and the Dockerfile out. Compose and the image
workflows point at the new context.
A named volume mounted on /app/inputs, /app/indexes or /app/vectors inherits
the ownership of the image directory, so the image creates them as appuser;
before this the volume came up root-owned and every upload failed with a
permission error unless the container ran as root. docker-compose-standalone.yaml
still runs backend and worker as root, like docker-compose-hub.yaml, so it
also works with image tags that predate these directories.
requirements-docling.txt adds the PyTorch CPU index, which uv resolves only
with UV_INDEX_STRATEGY=unsafe-best-match (pip is unaffected); the file header
and the docs say so and point uv users at uv sync --extra docling.
requirements.txt pinned torch and transformers in core although only docling
needs them, and on Linux torch pulls the CUDA 13 stack: 2.7 GB of the 3.0 GB
wheel download. Direct dependencies now live in pyproject.toml, uv.lock pins
everything, and application/requirements*.txt are exported from the lock by
scripts/export_requirements.sh (each file is the core set plus one extra).
The docling extra pins torch/torchvision/transformers itself and, on Linux,
resolves torch from the CPU-only PyTorch index (no nvidia packages). milvus
(pymilvus + milvus-lite, which pulls pyarrow) is the second extra.
application/core/optional_deps.py is the one place install hints come from;
the milvus store and the docling call sites use it so a missing extra fails
with the exact command to run.
