Add the possibility to upload PDFs in the front part of the application to read it #17

Create on the front end the possibility to upload a PDF file for example with the following procedure:

Parsing the file to read it
Split content to respect "limit" of tokens for model to send.
To be able to make queries on the elements of the document from the prompt.

(Of course it's not critical but it would really be a plus on the front)

nsarrazin commented 1 year ago

Yeah that would be super useful agreed! I think we need to implement a LangChain integration (see #4) in order to do this the easy way and not reinvent the wheel.

I will try to work on this in the near future

maxime-dlabai commented 1 year ago

I'll look into the LangChain integration on my end, if I can help.

For sure, feel free to share your findings

The models usually can't actually read very much without forgetting what they already read. You might be able to upload a page or two, but for that much you could probably copy and paste just as easily.
