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.
Follow-up review pass over the embeddings branch.
- Fold an oversized header back into the body, and drop header duplication
when it would leave under a quarter of the chunk budget. A header at or
over max_tokens collapsed the body budget to one token, so a document
became one chunk per body token, each still over the cap: a 95 KB file
produced 20k chunks of 2563 tokens against a 1250 cap. Also clamp
max_tokens to at least 1, as the strategy chunkers already do.
- Emit a header-only document as its own chunk. With no body piece to
attach it to, splitting returned nothing and the document was dropped
from the index with no error and no log line.
- Skip add_custom_model for a repository FastEmbed already ships. It
rejects a name it knows, so configuring any of its ~30 built-ins
(MiniLM, bge, e5, gte, ...) failed every embed call and every query.
- Decide "the user chose this model" by comparing against the field
default rather than model_fields_set, which is true for anything read
from .env. Every setup script has always written EMBEDDINGS_NAME, so an
upgraded remote-embeddings install inherited mpnet's 384-token window
and silently clipped ~80% off every chunk.
- Cut tiktoken splits at character offsets instead of decoding each token
window. A multi-byte character straddling a boundary decoded to U+FFFD
on both sides, destroying one character at roughly one boundary in five
on CJK text -- including at the default max_tokens of 2000.
- Let the re-embed script open a FAISS index whose width does not match
the configured model. That mismatch is the main reason to run it, and
the error recommending the script was raised by the script itself, so
the advice failed on every source.
- Re-embed graph_nodes.name_embedding when GraphRAG is enabled. Those
vectors seed every traversal and share the chunk vectors' width, so a
same-width model swap left the graph retrieving from the old space with
nothing to report it.
- Prefetch the models before copying the application source, so editing
any file no longer re-downloads ~780 MB of artifacts on every build.
- Mirror the setup.sh embedding menu into setup.ps1: granite default,
legacy mpnet as an explicit option, and both engine flows updated.
Windows users were otherwise stranded on mpnet with no granite path.
- Drop the unused EmbeddingsWrapper.tokenizer property.
Introduces a per-source config contract that makes RAG behavior strategy-dispatched instead of a single hardcoded path. Every source gains a validated JSONB config; an empty/absent config reproduces current behavior byte-for-byte, and the whole path is gated by PER_SOURCE_RETRIEVAL_ENABLED.
Foundation: sources.config JSONB column + migration 0022_source_config; SourceConfig/ChunkingConfig/RetrievalConfig pydantic models (strict on write, lenient on read); ChunkerCreator and RetrieverCreator.register registries; config threaded through the upload routes, ingest/remote/connector workers, and reingest.
Retrieval: a Dispatcher groups sources by retriever key (all-classic collapses to today's single ClassicRAG under one shared token budget; non-classic retrievers get their own instance), removing the previous single-global-retriever collapse in stream_processor. Per-source chunks, score_threshold (honored for pgvector/mongodb, safely ignored elsewhere), and rephrase_query toggle. New PATCH /api/sources/<id>/config with team-aware (effective_write_owner) authz and a requires_reingest signal.
Chunking strategies: recursive, markdown, parent_child (selectable per source; re-ingest to apply). Search exposure: per-source prefetch vs agentic_tool for agentic/research agents. Map-reduce prescreen: optional LLM relevance pre-filter implemented as a composable post-retrieval stage that wraps any retriever.
Backend and frontend (shared Retrieval options panel + edit modal) with tests; backend suite and frontend vitest green. Excludes the wiki and GraphRAG flagships.
