[Citation](#citation)so i found myself making another RAG bot (for the 2342148th time) and meanwhile, explaining to my juniors about why we should use chunking in our RAG bots, only to realise that i would have to write chunking all over again unless i use the bloated software library X or the extremely feature-less library Y. _WHY CAN I NOT HAVE SOMETHING JUST RIGHT, UGH?_
Can't i just install, import and run chunking and not have to worry about dependencies, bloat, speed or other factors?
Well, with chonkie you can! (chonkie boi is a gud boi)
**π Feature-rich**: All the CHONKs you'd ever need
**β¨ Easy to use**: Install, Import, CHONK
**β‘ Fast**: CHONK at the speed of light! zooooom
**π Wide support**: Supports all your favorite tokenizer CHONKS
**πͺΆ Light-weight**: No bloat, just CHONK
**π¦ Cute CHONK mascot**: psst it's a pygmy hippo btw
**β€οΈ [Moto Moto](#acknowledgements)'s favorite python library**What're you waiting for, **just CHONK it**!
# Installation
To install chonkie, simply run:
```bash
pip install chonkie
```Chonkie follows the rule to have minimal defualt installs, read the [DOCS](https://docs.chonkie.ai) to know the installation for your required chunker, or simply install `all` if you don't want to think about it (not recommended).
```bash
pip install chonkie[all]
```# Usage
Here's a basic example to get you started:
```python
# First import the chunker you want from Chonkie
from chonkie import TokenChunker# Import your favorite tokenizer library
# Also supports AutoTokenizers, TikToken and AutoTikTokenizer
from tokenizers import Tokenizer
tokenizer = Tokenizer.from_pretrained("gpt2")# Initialize the chunker
chunker = TokenChunker(tokenizer)# Chunk some text
chunks = chunker("Woah! Chonkie, the chunking library is so cool! I love the tiny hippo hehe.")# Access chunks
for chunk in chunks:
print(f"Chunk: {chunk.text}")
print(f"Tokens: {chunk.token_count}")
```More example usages given inside the [DOCS](https://docs.chonkie.ai)
# Supported Methods
Chonkie provides several chunkers to help you split your text efficiently for RAG applications. Here's a quick overview of the available chunkers:
- **TokenChunker**: Splits text into fixed-size token chunks.
- **WordChunker**: Splits text into chunks based on words.
- **SentenceChunker**: Splits text into chunks based on sentences.
- **SemanticChunker**: Splits text into chunks based on semantic similarity.
- **SDPMChunker**: Splits text using a Semantic Double-Pass Merge approach.More on these methods and the approaches taken inside the [DOCS](https://docs.chonkie.ai)
