Download the demo text "A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens":

curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gusye1234/nano-graphrag/main/tests/mock_data.txt > ./book.txt

Use the below Python snippet (in a script) to initialize LightRAG and perform queries:

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")))

Using Open AI-like APIs

LightRAG also supports Open AI-like chat/embeddings APIs:

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
    )
)

Using Hugging Face Models

If you want to use Hugging Face models, you only need to set LightRAG as follows:

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

# 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")
        )
    ),
)

Using Ollama Models

Overview

If you want to use Ollama models, you need to pull model you plan to use and embedding model, for example nomic-embed-text.

Then you only need to set LightRAG as follows:

from lightrag.llm import ollama_model_complete, ollama_embedding
from lightrag.utils import EmbeddingFunc

# 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"
        )
    ),
)

Using Neo4J for Storage

For production level scenarios you will most likely want to leverage an enterprise solution
for KG storage. Running Neo4J in Docker is recommended for seamless local testing.
See: https://hub.docker.com/_/neo4j

export NEO4J_URI="neo4j://localhost:7687"
export NEO4J_USERNAME="neo4j"
export NEO4J_PASSWORD="password"

When you launch the project be sure to override the default KG: NetworkS
by specifying kg="Neo4JStorage".

# Note: Default settings use NetworkX
#Initialize LightRAG with Neo4J implementation.
WORKING_DIR = "./local_neo4jWorkDir"

rag = LightRAG(
    working_dir=WORKING_DIR,
    llm_model_func=gpt_4o_mini_complete,  # Use gpt_4o_mini_complete LLM model
    kg="Neo4JStorage", #<-----------override KG default
    log_level="DEBUG"  #<-----------override log_level default
)

see test_neo4j.py for a working example.

Increasing context size

In order for LightRAG to work context should be at least 32k tokens. By default Ollama models have context size of 8k. You can achieve this using one of two ways:

Increasing the `num_ctx` parameter in Modelfile.

Pull the model:

ollama pull qwen2

Display the model file:

ollama show --modelfile qwen2 > Modelfile

Edit the Modelfile by adding the following line:

PARAMETER num_ctx 32768

Create the modified model:

ollama create -f Modelfile qwen2m

Setup `num_ctx` via Ollama API.

Tiy can use llm_model_kwargs param to configure ollama:

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"
        )
    ),
)

Fully functional example

There fully functional example examples/lightrag_ollama_demo.py that utilizes gemma2:2b model, runs only 4 requests in parallel and set context size to 32k.

Low RAM GPUs

In order to run this experiment on low RAM GPU you should select small model and tune context window (increasing context increase memory consumption). For example, running this ollama example on repurposed mining GPU with 6Gb of RAM required to set context size to 26k while using gemma2:2b. It was able to find 197 entities and 19 relations on book.txt.

Query Param

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

Batch Insert

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

Incremental Insert

# 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())

Delete Entity

#  Delete Entity: Deleting entities by their names
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,
     ),
)

rag.delete_by_entity("Project Gutenberg")

Multi-file Type Support

The textract supports reading file types such as TXT, DOCX, PPTX, CSV, and PDF.

import textract

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

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

Graph Visualization

Graph visualization with html

The following code can be found in examples/graph_visual_with_html.py

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')

    ...

Batch Eval

To evaluate the performance of two RAG systems on high-level queries, LightRAG uses the following prompt, with the specific code available in example/batch_eval.py.

Prompt

---Role---
You are an expert tasked with evaluating two answers to the same question based on three criteria: **Comprehensiveness**, **Diversity**, and **Empowerment**.
---Goal---
You will evaluate two answers to the same question based on three criteria: **Comprehensiveness**, **Diversity**, and **Empowerment**.

- **Comprehensiveness**: How much detail does the answer provide to cover all aspects and details of the question?
- **Diversity**: How varied and rich is the answer in providing different perspectives and insights on the question?
- **Empowerment**: How well does the answer help the reader understand and make informed judgments about the topic?

For each criterion, choose the better answer (either Answer 1 or Answer 2) and explain why. Then, select an overall winner based on these three categories.

Here is the question:
{query}

Here are the two answers:

**Answer 1:**
{answer1}

**Answer 2:**
{answer2}

Evaluate both answers using the three criteria listed above and provide detailed explanations for each criterion.

Output your evaluation in the following JSON format:

{{
    "Comprehensiveness": {{
        "Winner": "[Answer 1 or Answer 2]",
        "Explanation": "[Provide explanation here]"
    }},
    "Empowerment": {{
        "Winner": "[Answer 1 or Answer 2]",
        "Explanation": "[Provide explanation here]"
    }},
    "Overall Winner": {{
        "Winner": "[Answer 1 or Answer 2]",
        "Explanation": "[Summarize why this answer is the overall winner based on the three criteria]"
    }}
}}

Reproduce

All the code can be found in the ./reproduce directory.

Step-0 Extract Unique Contexts

First, we need to extract unique contexts in the datasets.

Code

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.")

Step-1 Insert Contexts

For the extracted contexts, we insert them into the LightRAG system.

Code

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")

Step-2 Generate Queries

We extract tokens from the first and the second half of each context in the dataset, then combine them as dataset descriptions to generate queries.

Code

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

Step-3 Query

For the queries generated in Step-2, we will extract them and query LightRAG.

Code

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
