RAG Discord Bot

Welcome to the RAG Discord Bot project! This document provides an overview of the project, its goals, and the technologies we'll be using.

Project Overview

The RAG (Retrieve and Generate) Discord Bot aims to enhance our Discord server by providing intelligent responses based on our discussions and general club information. The project will span a month and is designed to be manageable within that timeframe.

Use Cases

Transcript Querying: The bot will be able to refer to the transcripts of our discussions and answer questions based on them.
General Club Information: The bot will provide information about announcements and club resources.

We also follow 'learn as you do' motto so dont be afraid to pick up issues that intrest you.

Installation

Clone the Repository

git clone https://github.com/UB-AICLUB/RagBot.git
cd RagBot

Install Dependencies

Create a virtual environment and install the necessary Python packages:

python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows use `venv\Scripts\activate`
pip install -r requirements.txt

Set Up Environment Variables

Create a .env file and add your Discord bot token and other configuration details.
```
DISCORD_TOKEN=your_discord_token
```
for obvious reasons, this will not be pushed into the repository. This is required only if you wanna test it in your own server.
Run the Bot
```
python bot.py
```

Development

During the first week of September, we will have an in-person discussion session to provide a basic overview of the tools and technologies involved.
