[RagFlow](http://demo.ragflow.io) is a knowledge management platform built on custom-build document understanding engine and LLM, with reasoned and well-founded answers to your question. Clone this repository, you can deploy your own knowledge management platform to empower your business with AI.
## 🌟Key Features
- 🍭**Custom-build document understanding engine.** Our deep learning engine is made according to the needs of analyzing and searching various type of documents in different domain.
- For documents from different domain for different purpose, the engine applys different analyzing and search strategy.
- Easily intervene and manipulate the data proccessing procedure when things goes beyond expectation.
- Multi-media document understanding is supported using OCR and multi-modal LLM.
- 🍭**State-of-the-art table structure and layout recognition.** Precisely extract and understand the document including table content. See [README.](./deepdoc/README.md)
- For PDF files, layout and table structures including row, column and span of them are recognized.
- Put the table accrossing the pages together.
- Reconstruct the table structure components into html table.
- **Querying database dumped data are supported.** After uploading tables from any database, you can search any data records just by asking.
- You can now query a database using natural language instead of using SQL.
- The record number uploaded is not limited.
- **Reasoned and well-founded answers.** The cited document part in LLM's answer is provided and pointed out in the original document.
- The answers are based on retrieved result for which we apply vector-keyword hybrids search and re-rank.
- The part of document cited in the answer is presented in the most expressive way.
- For PDF file, the cited parts in document can be located in the original PDF.
## 🤺RagFlow vs. other RAG applications
## 🎬 Get Started
### 📝Prerequisites
- CPU >= 2 cores
- RAM >= 8 GB
Then, you need to check the following command:
```bash
121:/ragflow# sysctl vm.max_map_count
vm.max_map_count = 262144
```
If **vm.max_map_count** is not greater than 65535:
```bash
121:/ragflow# sudo sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=262144
```
Note that this change is reset after a system reboot. To render your change permanent, add or update the following line in **/etc/sysctl.conf**:
```bash
vm.max_map_count=262144
```
### Install docker
If you have not installed *Docker* on your local machine, see [Install Docker Engine](https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/)
### Quick Start
> - In [service_conf.yaml](./docker/service_conf.yaml), configuration of *LLM* in **user_default_llm** is strongly recommended.
> In **user_default_llm** of [service_conf.yaml](./docker/service_conf.yaml), you need to specify LLM factory and your own _API_KEY_.
> If you do not have _API_KEY_ at the moment, you can specify it in
Settings the next time you log in to the system.
> - RagFlow supports the flowing LLM factory, with more coming in the pipeline:
> [OpenAI](https://platform.openai.com/login?launch), [Tongyi-Qianwen](https://dashscope.console.aliyun.com/model),
> [ZHIPU-AI](https://open.bigmodel.cn/), [Moonshot](https://platform.moonshot.cn/docs/docs)
```bash
$ git clone https://github.com/infiniflow/ragflow.git
$ cd ragflow/docker
$ docker compose up -d
```
### OR
```bash
$ git clone https://github.com/infiniflow/ragflow.git
$ cd ragflow/
$ docker build -t infiniflow/ragflow:v1.0 .
$ cd ragflow/docker
$ docker compose up -d
```
> The core image is about 15 GB in size and may take a while to load.
Check the server status after pulling all images and running up:
```bash
$ docker logs -f ragflow-server
```
*Hallelujah! The following outputs indicates that you have successfully launched the system:*

```
Open your browser, enter the IP address of your server, _**Hallelujah**_ again!
> The default serving port is 80, if you want to change that, refer to the [docker-compose.yml](./docker-compose.yaml) and change the left part of *'80:80'*'.
## 🔎System Architecture
## 🔧 Configurations
If you need to change the default setting of the system when you deploy it. There several ways to configure it.
Please refer to this [README](./docker/README.md) to manually update the configuration.
After changing something, please run *docker-compose up -d* again.
> If you want to change the basic setups, like port, password .etc., please refer to [.env](./docker/.env) before starting up the system.
> If you change anything in [.env](./docker/.env), please check [service_conf.yaml](./docker/service_conf.yaml) which is a configuration of the back-end service and should be consistent with [.env](./docker/.env).
