| ## ๐ก What is RAGFlow? | |
| [RAGFlow](https://ragflow.io/) is an open-source RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) engine based on deep document understanding. It offers a streamlined RAG workflow for businesses of any scale, combining LLM (Large Language Models) to provide truthful question-answering capabilities, backed by well-founded citations from various complex formatted data. | |

| ## ๐ System Architecture | |
| <div align="center" style="margin-top:20px;margin-bottom:20px;"> | |
| <img src="https://github.com/infiniflow/ragflow/assets/12318111/d6ac5664-c237-4200-a7c2-a4a00691b485" width="1000"/> | |
| </div> | |
| ## ๐ฌ Get Started | |
| ### ๐ Prerequisites | |
| - CPU >= 4 cores | |
| - RAM >= 16 GB | |
| - Disk >= 50 GB | |
| - Docker >= 24.0.0 & Docker Compose >= v2.26.1 | |
| > If you have not installed Docker on your local machine (Windows, Mac, or Linux), see [Install Docker Engine](https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/). | |
| ### ๐ Start up the server | |
| 1. Ensure `vm.max_map_count` >= 262144: | |
| > To check the value of `vm.max_map_count`: | |
| > | |
| > ```bash | |
| > $ sysctl vm.max_map_count | |
| > ``` | |
| > | |
| > Reset `vm.max_map_count` to a value at least 262144 if it is not. | |
| > | |
| > ```bash | |
| > # In this case, we set it to 262144: | |
| > $ sudo sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=262144 | |
| > ``` | |
| > | |
| > This change will be reset after a system reboot. To ensure your change remains permanent, add or update the `vm.max_map_count` value in **/etc/sysctl.conf** accordingly: | |
| > | |
| > ```bash | |
| > vm.max_map_count=262144 | |
| > ``` | |
| 2. Clone the repo: | |
| ```bash | |
| $ git clone https://github.com/infiniflow/ragflow.git | |
| ``` | |
| 3. Build the pre-built Docker images and start up the server: | |
| > The command below downloads the dev version Docker image for RAGFlow slim (`dev-slim`). Note that RAGFlow slim Docker images do not include embedding models or Python libraries and hence are approximately 1GB in size. | |
| ```bash | |
| $ cd ragflow/docker | |
| $ docker compose -f docker-compose.yml up -d | |
| ``` | |
| > - To download a RAGFlow slim Docker image of a specific version, update the `RAGFlow_IMAGE` variable in **docker/.env** to your desired version. For example, `RAGFLOW_IMAGE=infiniflow/ragflow:v0.12.0-slim`. After making this change, rerun the command above to initiate the download. | |
| > - To download the dev version of RAGFlow Docker image *including* embedding models and Python libraries, update the `RAGFlow_IMAGE` variable in **docker/.env** to `RAGFLOW_IMAGE=infiniflow/ragflow:dev`. After making this change, rerun the command above to initiate the download. | |
| > - To download a specific version of RAGFlow Docker image *including* embedding models and Python libraries, update the `RAGFlow_IMAGE` variable in **docker/.env** to your desired version. For example, `RAGFLOW_IMAGE=infiniflow/ragflow:v0.12.0`. After making this change, rerun the command above to initiate the download. | |
| > **NOTE:** A RAGFlow Docker image that includes embedding models and Python libraries is approximately 9GB in size and may take significantly longer time to load. | |
| 4. Check the server status after having the server up and running: | |
| ```bash | |
| $ docker logs -f ragflow-server | |
| ``` | |
| _The following output confirms a successful launch of the system:_ | |
| ```bash | |
| ____ ___ ______ ______ __ | |
| / __ \ / | / ____// ____// /____ _ __ | |
| / /_/ // /| | / / __ / /_ / // __ \| | /| / / | |
| / _, _// ___ |/ /_/ // __/ / // /_/ /| |/ |/ / | |
| /_/ |_|/_/ |_|\____//_/ /_/ \____/ |__/|__/ | |
| * Running on all addresses (0.0.0.0) | |
| * Running on http://127.0.0.1:9380 | |
| * Running on http://x.x.x.x:9380 | |
| INFO:werkzeug:Press CTRL+C to quit | |
| ``` | |
| > If you skip this confirmation step and directly log in to RAGFlow, your browser may prompt a `network abnormal` error because, at that moment, your RAGFlow may not be fully initialized. | |
| 5. In your web browser, enter the IP address of your server and log in to RAGFlow. | |
| > With the default settings, you only need to enter `http://IP_OF_YOUR_MACHINE` (**sans** port number) as the default HTTP serving port `80` can be omitted when using the default configurations. | |
| 6. In [service_conf.yaml](./docker/service_conf.yaml), select the desired LLM factory in `user_default_llm` and update the `API_KEY` field with the corresponding API key. | |
| > See [llm_api_key_setup](https://ragflow.io/docs/dev/llm_api_key_setup) for more information. | |
| _The show is on!_ | |
| ## ๐ง Configurations | |
| When it comes to system configurations, you will need to manage the following files: | |
| - [.env](./docker/.env): Keeps the fundamental setups for the system, such as `SVR_HTTP_PORT`, `MYSQL_PASSWORD`, and `MINIO_PASSWORD`. | |
| - [service_conf.yaml](./docker/service_conf.yaml): Configures the back-end services. | |
| - [docker-compose.yml](./docker/docker-compose.yml): The system relies on [docker-compose.yml](./docker/docker-compose.yml) to start up. | |
| You must ensure that changes to the [.env](./docker/.env) file are in line with what are in the [service_conf.yaml](./docker/service_conf.yaml) file. | |
| > The [./docker/README](./docker/README.md) file provides a detailed description of the environment settings and service configurations, and you are REQUIRED to ensure that all environment settings listed in the [./docker/README](./docker/README.md) file are aligned with the corresponding configurations in the [service_conf.yaml](./docker/service_conf.yaml) file. | |
| To update the default HTTP serving port (80), go to [docker-compose.yml](./docker/docker-compose.yml) and change `80:80` to `<YOUR_SERVING_PORT>:80`. | |
| Updates to the above configurations require a reboot of all containers to take effect: | |
| > ```bash | |
| > $ docker compose -f docker/docker-compose.yml up -d | |
| > ``` | |
| ## ๐ง Build a Docker image without embedding models | |
| This image is approximately 1 GB in size and relies on external LLM and embedding services. | |
| ```bash | |
| git clone https://github.com/infiniflow/ragflow.git | |
| cd ragflow/ | |
| pip3 install huggingface-hub nltk | |
| python3 download_deps.py | |
| docker build -f Dockerfile.slim -t infiniflow/ragflow:dev-slim . | |
| ``` | |
| ## ๐ง Build a Docker image including embedding models | |
| This image is approximately 9 GB in size. As it includes embedding models, it relies on external LLM services only. | |
| ```bash | |
| git clone https://github.com/infiniflow/ragflow.git | |
| cd ragflow/ | |
| pip3 install huggingface-hub nltk | |
| python3 download_deps.py | |
| docker build -f Dockerfile -t infiniflow/ragflow:dev . | |
| ``` | |
| ## ๐จ Launch service from source for development | |
| 1. Install Poetry, or skip this step if it is already installed: | |
| ```bash | |
| curl -sSL https://install.python-poetry.org | python3 - | |
| ``` | |
| 2. Clone the source code and install Python dependencies: | |
| ```bash | |
| git clone https://github.com/infiniflow/ragflow.git | |
| cd ragflow/ | |
| export POETRY_VIRTUALENVS_CREATE=true POETRY_VIRTUALENVS_IN_PROJECT=true | |
| ~/.local/bin/poetry install --sync --no-root # install RAGFlow dependent python modules | |
| ``` | |
| 3. Launch the dependent services (MinIO, Elasticsearch, Redis, and MySQL) using Docker Compose: | |
| ```bash | |
| docker compose -f docker/docker-compose-base.yml up -d | |
| ``` | |
| Add the following line to `/etc/hosts` to resolve all hosts specified in **docker/service_conf.yaml** to `127.0.0.1`: | |
| ``` | |
| 127.0.0.1 es01 mysql minio redis | |
| ``` | |
| In **docker/service_conf.yaml**, update mysql port to `5455` and es port to `1200`, as specified in **docker/.env**. | |
| 4. If you cannot access HuggingFace, set the `HF_ENDPOINT` environment variable to use a mirror site: | |
| ```bash | |
| export HF_ENDPOINT=https://hf-mirror.com | |
| ``` | |
| 5. Launch backend service: | |
| ```bash | |
| source .venv/bin/activate | |
| export PYTHONPATH=$(pwd) | |
| bash docker/launch_backend_service.sh | |
| ``` | |
| 6. Install frontend dependencies: | |
| ```bash | |
| cd web | |
| npm install --force | |
| ``` | |
| 7. Configure frontend to update `proxy.target` in **.umirc.ts** to `http://127.0.0.1:9380`: | |
| 8. Launch frontend service: | |
| ```bash | |
| npm run dev | |
| ``` | |
| _The following output confirms a successful launch of the system:_ | |
