## **This repository is no longer actively maintained. A more advanced version of this project is available at [chat.portal.so](https://chat.portal.so) for free and will be open sourced soon.**

# ResearchGPT

This is a simple fastapi app that provides a clean interface to enable a conversation with any pdf. You can enter a link to a pdf hosted online or upload your own pdf. The app will then extract the text from the pdf, create embeddings from the text and use them with the openai api to generate a response to a question you ask. It will also return a source for the part of the text it used to generate the response and the page number.

Try the demo at: https://www.dara.chat

## Example
(this video shows some features available on the [live demo](https://www.dara.chat) only )

## Installation

```bash
git clone https://github.com/mukulpatnaik/researchgpt.git
cd researchgpt
pip install -r requirements.txt
```

You also need redis for storing the embeddings locally on your machine. You can find installation instructions here: https://redis.io/docs/getting-started/installation/. To start the db, run the following command in your terminal.

On MacOS:

```bash
redis-server
```

On Windows:

```bash
sudo service redis-server start
```

## Usage

You need to have an openai api key and set it as the environment variable 'OPENAI_API_KEY'.

You can get the OpenAI API key here - https://platform.openai.com/account/api-keys

To set your environment variable open your .bashrc or .zshrc and add the line `export OPENAI_API_KEY="your-key`, make sure to put your actual key instead of "your-key".

```bash
uvicorn main:app --reload
```
