+ LangChain and Pinecone

Note: If you'd like to set this up with google auth and mongoDB (as opposed to no auth and using local storage), have a look at this branch: mongodb-and-auth. However, that repo is several important commits behind this one and lacks certain features, so keep that in mind.

yarn install

Set up your .env file

• Rename .env.example to .env
• Your .env file should look like this:

NODE_ENV=development

Node environment

• Development by default. In production, set this to 'production' (without the quotes)

Other

• In utils/makechain.ts, adjust the QA_PROMPT for your own usecase. Change modelName in new OpenAI to gpt-4, if you have access to it.

Deployment

Add these to your .env file:

NEXTAUTH_URL=http://localhost:3000
NEXTAUTH_SECRET=
JWT_SECRET=

NextAuth Secret

• You can generate this by running openssl rand -base64 32 in Git Bash.

JWT Secret

• You can generate this by running openssl rand -base64 32 in Git Bash.

NextAuth URL

• Default is http://localhost:3000. In production, this should be the URL of your deployed app.

Run the app

npm run dev

Troubleshooting

General errors

• Make sure that you are running the latest version of Node. To check your version run node -v.
• If you're encountering issues with a specific file, try converting it to text first or try a different file. It's possible that the file is corrupted, scanned, or requires OCR to be converted to text.
• Confirm that you're using the same versions of LangChain and Pinecone as this repository.

Pinecone errors

• Confirm that you've set the vector dimensions to 1536.
• Note that Pinecone indexes for users on the Starter (free) plan are deleted after 7 days of inactivity. To prevent this, send an API request to Pinecone to reset the counter before 7 days.
• If issues persist, consider starting fresh with a new Pinecone project, index, and cloned repository.
