使用以下 Python 代码片段（在脚本中）初始化 LightRAG 并执行查询：

python 复制代码

import os
from lightrag import LightRAG, QueryParam
from lightrag.llm import gpt_4o_mini_complete, gpt_4o_complete

#########
# Uncomment the below two lines if running in a jupyter notebook to handle the async nature of rag.insert()
# import nest_asyncio
# nest_asyncio.apply()
#########

WORKING_DIR = "./dickens"


if not os.path.exists(WORKING_DIR):
    os.mkdir(WORKING_DIR)

rag = LightRAG(
    working_dir=WORKING_DIR,
    llm_model_func=gpt_4o_mini_complete  # Use gpt_4o_mini_complete LLM model
    # llm_model_func=gpt_4o_complete  # Optionally, use a stronger model
)

with open("./book.txt") as f:
    rag.insert(f.read())


# Perform naive search
print(rag.query("What are the top themes in this story?", param=QueryParam(mode="naive")))

# Perform local search
print(rag.query("What are the top themes in this story?", param=QueryParam(mode="local")))

# Perform global search
print(rag.query("What are the top themes in this story?", param=QueryParam(mode="global")))


# Perform hybrid search
print(rag.query("What are the top themes in this story?", param=QueryParam(mode="hybrid")))

使用类似开放 AI 的 API

LightRAG 还支持类似开放 AI 的聊天/嵌入 API：

python 复制代码

async def llm_model_func(
    prompt, system_prompt=None, history_messages=[], **kwargs
) -> str:
    return await openai_complete_if_cache(
        "solar-mini",
        prompt,
        system_prompt=system_prompt,
        history_messages=history_messages,
        api_key=os.getenv("UPSTAGE_API_KEY"),
        base_url="https://api.upstage.ai/v1/solar",
        **kwargs
    )

async def embedding_func(texts: list[str]) -> np.ndarray:
    return await openai_embedding(
        texts,
        model="solar-embedding-1-large-query",
        api_key=os.getenv("UPSTAGE_API_KEY"),
        base_url="https://api.upstage.ai/v1/solar"
    )

rag = LightRAG(
    working_dir=WORKING_DIR,
    llm_model_func=llm_model_func,
    embedding_func=EmbeddingFunc(
        embedding_dim=4096,
        max_token_size=8192,
        func=embedding_func
    )
)

使用 Hugging Face 模型

如果要使用Hugging Face模型，只需要如下设置LightRAG：

python 复制代码

from lightrag.llm import hf_model_complete, hf_embedding
from transformers import AutoModel, AutoTokenizer

# Initialize LightRAG with Hugging Face model
rag = LightRAG(
    working_dir=WORKING_DIR,
    llm_model_func=hf_model_complete,  # Use Hugging Face model for text generation
    llm_model_name='meta-llama/Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct',  # Model name from Hugging Face
    # Use Hugging Face embedding function
    embedding_func=EmbeddingFunc(
        embedding_dim=384,
        max_token_size=5000,
        func=lambda texts: hf_embedding(
            texts,
            tokenizer=AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2"),
            embed_model=AutoModel.from_pretrained("sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2")
        )
    ),
)

使用 Ollama 模型

概述

如果您想使用 Ollama 模型，您需要拉取您计划使用的模型和嵌入模型，例如nomic-embed-text。

然后你只需要按如下方式设置LightRAG：

python 复制代码

from lightrag.llm import ollama_model_complete, ollama_embedding

# Initialize LightRAG with Ollama model
rag = LightRAG(
    working_dir=WORKING_DIR,
    llm_model_func=ollama_model_complete,  # Use Ollama model for text generation
    llm_model_name='your_model_name', # Your model name
    # Use Ollama embedding function
    embedding_func=EmbeddingFunc(
        embedding_dim=768,
        max_token_size=8192,
        func=lambda texts: ollama_embedding(
            texts,
            embed_model="nomic-embed-text"
        )
    ),
)

增加上下文大小

为了使 LightRAG 正常工作，上下文至少应为 32k 个标记。默认情况下，Ollama 模型的上下文大小为 8k。您可以使用以下两种方式之一实现此目的：

增加num_ctxModelfile中的参数。

拉取模型：

bash 复制代码

ollama pull qwen2

显示模型文件：

bash 复制代码

ollama show --modelfile qwen2 > Modelfile

编辑模型文件，添加以下行：

bash 复制代码

PARAMETER num_ctx 32768

创建修改后的模型：

bash 复制代码

ollama create -f Modelfile qwen2m

num_ctx通过 Ollama API设置。

Tiy 可以使用llm_model_kwargsparam 来配置 ollama：

python 复制代码

rag = LightRAG(
    working_dir=WORKING_DIR,
    llm_model_func=ollama_model_complete,  # Use Ollama model for text generation
    llm_model_name='your_model_name', # Your model name
    llm_model_kwargs={"options": {"num_ctx": 32768}},
    # Use Ollama embedding function
    embedding_func=EmbeddingFunc(
        embedding_dim=768,
        max_token_size=8192,
        func=lambda texts: ollama_embedding(
            texts,
            embed_model="nomic-embed-text"
        )
    ),
)

功能齐全的示例

examples/lightrag_ollama_demo.py这里有一个利用模型的功能齐全的示例gemma2:2b，仅并行运行 4 个请求，并将上下文大小设置为 32k。

低 RAM GPU

为了在低 RAM GPU 上运行此实验，您应该选择小模型并调整上下文窗口（增加上下文会增加内存消耗）。例如，在重新利用的挖矿 GPU 上运行此 ollama 示例，使用时需要将上下文大小设置为 26k，内存为 6Gb gemma2:2b。它能够在上找到 197 个实体和 19 个关系book.txt。

查询参数

python 复制代码

class QueryParam:
    mode: Literal["local", "global", "hybrid", "naive"] = "global"
    only_need_context: bool = False
    response_type: str = "Multiple Paragraphs"
    # Number of top-k items to retrieve; corresponds to entities in "local" mode and relationships in "global" mode.
    top_k: int = 60
    # Number of tokens for the original chunks.
    max_token_for_text_unit: int = 4000
    # Number of tokens for the relationship descriptions
    max_token_for_global_context: int = 4000
    # Number of tokens for the entity descriptions
    max_token_for_local_context: int = 4000

批量插入

python 复制代码

# Batch Insert: Insert multiple texts at once
rag.insert(["TEXT1", "TEXT2",...])

增量插入

python 复制代码

# Incremental Insert: Insert new documents into an existing LightRAG instance
rag = LightRAG(
     working_dir=WORKING_DIR,
     llm_model_func=llm_model_func,
     embedding_func=EmbeddingFunc(
          embedding_dim=embedding_dimension,
          max_token_size=8192,
          func=embedding_func,
     ),
)

with open("./newText.txt") as f:
    rag.insert(f.read())

多文件类型支持

支持testract读取TXT、DOCX、PPTX、CSV和PDF等文件类型。

python 复制代码

import textract

file_path = 'TEXT.pdf'
text_content = textract.process(file_path)

rag.insert(text_content.decode('utf-8'))

图形可视化

使用 HTML 进行图形可视化

以下代码可以在examples/graph_visual_with_html.py

python 复制代码

import networkx as nx
from pyvis.network import Network

# Load the GraphML file
G = nx.read_graphml('./dickens/graph_chunk_entity_relation.graphml')

# Create a Pyvis network
net = Network(notebook=True)

# Convert NetworkX graph to Pyvis network
net.from_nx(G)

# Save and display the network
net.show('knowledge_graph.html')

使用 Neo4j 进行图形可视化

以下代码可以在examples/graph_visual_with_neo4j.py

python 复制代码

步骤重现

所有代码均可在./reproduce目录中找到。

步骤 0 提取唯一上下文

首先，我们需要从数据集中提取独特的上下文。

代码

python 复制代码

def extract_unique_contexts(input_directory, output_directory):

    os.makedirs(output_directory, exist_ok=True)

    jsonl_files = glob.glob(os.path.join(input_directory, '*.jsonl'))
    print(f"Found {len(jsonl_files)} JSONL files.")

    for file_path in jsonl_files:
        filename = os.path.basename(file_path)
        name, ext = os.path.splitext(filename)
        output_filename = f"{name}_unique_contexts.json"
        output_path = os.path.join(output_directory, output_filename)

        unique_contexts_dict = {}

        print(f"Processing file: {filename}")

        try:
            with open(file_path, 'r', encoding='utf-8') as infile:
                for line_number, line in enumerate(infile, start=1):
                    line = line.strip()
                    if not line:
                        continue
                    try:
                        json_obj = json.loads(line)
                        context = json_obj.get('context')
                        if context and context not in unique_contexts_dict:
                            unique_contexts_dict[context] = None
                    except json.JSONDecodeError as e:
                        print(f"JSON decoding error in file {filename} at line {line_number}: {e}")
        except FileNotFoundError:
            print(f"File not found: {filename}")
            continue
        except Exception as e:
            print(f"An error occurred while processing file {filename}: {e}")
            continue

        unique_contexts_list = list(unique_contexts_dict.keys())
        print(f"There are {len(unique_contexts_list)} unique `context` entries in the file {filename}.")

        try:
            with open(output_path, 'w', encoding='utf-8') as outfile:
                json.dump(unique_contexts_list, outfile, ensure_ascii=False, indent=4)
            print(f"Unique `context` entries have been saved to: {output_filename}")
        except Exception as e:
            print(f"An error occurred while saving to the file {output_filename}: {e}")

    print("All files have been processed.")

步骤 1 插入上下文

对于提取的上下文，我们将其插入到LightRAG系统中。

代码

python 复制代码

def insert_text(rag, file_path):
    with open(file_path, mode='r') as f:
        unique_contexts = json.load(f)

    retries = 0
    max_retries = 3
    while retries < max_retries:
        try:
            rag.insert(unique_contexts)
            break
        except Exception as e:
            retries += 1
            print(f"Insertion failed, retrying ({retries}/{max_retries}), error: {e}")
            time.sleep(10)
    if retries == max_retries:
        print("Insertion failed after exceeding the maximum number of retries")

步骤 2 生成查询

我们从数据集中每个上下文的前半部分和后半部分提取标记，然后将它们组合为数据集描述以生成查询。

代码

python 复制代码

tokenizer = GPT2Tokenizer.from_pretrained('gpt2')

def get_summary(context, tot_tokens=2000):
    tokens = tokenizer.tokenize(context)
    half_tokens = tot_tokens // 2

    start_tokens = tokens[1000:1000 + half_tokens]
    end_tokens = tokens[-(1000 + half_tokens):1000]

    summary_tokens = start_tokens + end_tokens
    summary = tokenizer.convert_tokens_to_string(summary_tokens)

    return summary

步骤 3 查询

对于步骤 2 中生成的查询，我们将提取它们并查询 LightRAG。

代码

python 复制代码

def extract_queries(file_path):
    with open(file_path, 'r') as f:
        data = f.read()

    data = data.replace('**', '')

    queries = re.findall(r'- Question \d+: (.+)', data)

    return queries
