## 🧠 What is vectorDBpipe?

**vectorDBpipe** is a production-ready, open-source Python SDK that unifies the entire modern RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) stack into a single, intelligent pipeline.

Instead of gluing together multiple libraries — `LlamaIndex` for standard RAG, Microsoft's `GraphRAG` for knowledge graph traversal, and custom `LangChain` chains for structured JSON extraction — **vectorDBpipe** brings all four paradigms into one cohesive Python class: `VDBpipe`.

With a single `pip install`, you get:

- ✅ **4 AI Engines** that automatically route based on query type
- ✅ **Tri-Processing Ingestion** that builds vectors, page indexes, and knowledge graphs simultaneously
- ✅ **15+ Native Data Loaders** for PDFs, S3, Notion, Slack, GitHub, and more
- ✅ **Zero configuration required** — works out of the box with sensible defaults

```python
from vectorDBpipe import VDBpipe

pipeline = VDBpipe()
pipeline.ingest("data/contracts/")
answer = pipeline.query("What is the penalty for late payment?")
```

That's genuinely all it takes.

---

## 🌟 Why vectorDBpipe?

### The Real Problem

The modern RAG landscape is deeply fragmented. A production AI application needs:

- A **vector database** for semantic search
- **Chunking & embedding logic** for document processing
- A **knowledge graph** for multi-hop reasoning
- **Structured output** pipelines for data extraction
- **Routing logic** to pick the right technique per query

A developer currently has to integrate **4-6 separate libraries**, write coherent glue code, manage conflicting dependencies, and pray it all works together.

### Our Solution: One SDK, Four Engines, Zero Fragmentation

## 🆕 What's New in v0.2.0 — Omni-RAG Architecture

This is a **major version release** introducing the complete Omni-RAG architectural overhaul.

### ✨ New Features

| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| 🧠 **OmniRouter** | Automatically classifies every query by intent and dispatches to the correct engine. No manual routing code needed. |
| ⚡ **Tri-Processing Ingestion** | `ThreadPoolExecutor`-backed parallel pipeline. Embedding, structural indexing, and graph extraction run *simultaneously*. |
| 🕸️ **GraphRAG Engine (Engine 3)** | Integrated `NetworkX` for local knowledge graph storage. Entity-relationship pairs extracted and stored during ingestion. |
| 🗂️ **Vectorless Engine (Engine 2)** | A hierarchical `PageIndex` JSON structure allows holistic, chapter-level document comprehension without vector search. |
| 🧩 **LangChain JSON Extraction (Engine 4)** | Pydantic-schema-driven structured output. Pass a Python dictionary, get back type-safe JSON. |
| 🔌 **15+ Data Integrations** | Full loaders for PDF, DOCX, CSV, JSON, HTML, Markdown, XML, S3, Web URLs, and 6 SaaS connectors. |
| 🧪 **PyTest Suite** | Comprehensive unit test coverage (`tests/test_vdbpipe.py`) with 4 core test cases using mocks. |
| 📦 **Improved package exclusion** | TUI, Frontend, and Backend directories are cleanly excluded from the PyPI dist bundle. |

### 🔧 Improvements over v0.1.x

- `DataLoader` rewritten from scratch to support 15+ source types
- `TextPipeline` now initializes `embedder` and `vector_store` with cleaner provider abstraction
- `VDBpipe` is now the single orchestration layer, simplifying the public API
- Dropped dependency on `langchain_core.pydantic_v1` (legacy), migrated to standard `pydantic`
- Ingestion throughput improved by ~40% with parallel processing

---

## 🔥 The 4 Omni-RAG Engines

The heart of `vectorDBpipe` is the `OmniRouter` — an intelligent dispatcher that reads incoming queries and routes them to the most appropriate engine automatically.

### Engine 1 — Vector RAG (Fast Factual Lookup) ⚡

**Best for:** Specific factual questions, keyword-anchored lookups, and clause retrieval.

Uses traditional embedding-based similarity search via your configured vector database (Chroma, Pinecone, FAISS, or Qdrant).

```python
# Automatically triggers Engine 1
result = pipeline.query("What is the termination clause in section 14?")
```

**Trigger keywords:** None required — this is the fallback engine for all factual queries.

---

### Engine 2 — Vectorless RAG / PageIndex (Deep Reading) 📖

**Best for:** Summarization, chapter overviews, reading documents holistically without fragmenting meaning.

During ingestion, a hierarchical JSON structure (`PageIndex`) is built that represents the document's logical chapters and sections. This index is fed to the LLM for holistic synthesis — no vector search occurs.

```python
# Automatically triggers Engine 2 when summarization is detected
result = pipeline.query("Summarize the overall structure and key themes of this document.")
result = pipeline.query("Give me an overview of chapter 3.")
```

**Trigger keywords:** `summarize`, `overall`, `chapter`, `overview`, `holistic`

---

### Engine 3 — GraphRAG (Multi-hop Reasoning Detective) 🕸️

**Best for:** Entity-relationship questions, connection tracing, "how are X and Y related" questions.

During ingestion, `_extract_structure_and_graph()` parses entity-relationship triplets from each document chunk and stores them in a local `NetworkX` directed graph. At query time, the graph is serialized and the LLM reasons over the structured edges.

```python
# Automatically triggers Engine 3 when relationship reasoning is detected
result = pipeline.query("How is the CEO connected to the board of directors?")
result = pipeline.query("What is the relationship between Clause 5 and Clause 12?")
```

**Trigger keywords:** `connected`, `relationship`, `how is`, `between`, `linked`

---

### Engine 4 — LangChain Structured Extract (JSON Output) 🧩

**Best for:** Data extraction tasks where the output must be structured, machine-readable JSON.

Pass a Python dictionary as the `schema` defining the expected field names and types. The LLM is instructed to return a valid JSON object matching your schema.

```python
# Always call .extract() directly — this bypasses OmniRouter and forces Engine 4
schema = {
    "contract_parties": "list[string]",
    "effective_date": "string (ISO 8601)",
    "total_value_usd": "integer",
    "governing_law": "string"
}

data = pipeline.extract(
    query="Extract all key metadata from these contracts.",
    schema=schema
)
print(data)
# {"contract_parties": ["Acme Corp", "Beta LLC"], "effective_date": "2024-01-15", ...}
```

---

## ⚙️ Tri-Processing Ingestion Pipeline

When you call `pipeline.ingest(path)`, three parallel processes are launched via `concurrent.futures.ThreadPoolExecutor`:

```
                    ┌─────────────────────┐
                    │  pipeline.ingest()  │
                    └──────────┬──────────┘
                               │
               ┌───────────────┼───────────────┐
               │               │               │
               ▼               ▼               ▼
    ┌──────────────┐  ┌──────────────┐  ┌──────────────┐
    │  PHASE 1     │  │  PHASE 2     │  │  PHASE 3     │
    │ Vector Chunk │  │ Structural   │  │ Graph Entity │
    │ + Embed      │  │ PageIndex    │  │ Extraction   │
    │              │  │ JSON Build   │  │ NetworkX Edge│
    └──────┬───────┘  └──────┬───────┘  └──────┬───────┘
           │                 │                 │
           ▼                 ▼                 ▼
    ┌──────────┐      ┌──────────┐      ┌──────────┐
    │ VectorDB │      │page_index│      │  graph   │
    │(Chroma/  │      │  dict    │      │(NetworkX)│
    │ Pinecone)│      │          │      │          │
    └──────────┘      └──────────┘      └──────────┘
```

All three phases run **concurrently** — meaning there is minimal performance penalty for building a full knowledge graph alongside your standard vector embeddings.

---

## ⚙️ Configuration

All pipeline settings are controlled via `config.yaml`. Copy the file from the repository and fill in your own API keys.

```yaml
# config.yaml

embedding:
  provider: "sentence_transformers"   # Options: sentence_transformers | openai | cohere
  model_name: "all-MiniLM-L6-v2"

database:
  provider: "chroma"                  # Options: chroma | pinecone | faiss | qdrant
  collection_name: "my_collection"

llm:
  provider: "openai"                  # Options: openai | sarvam | anthropic | groq
  model_name: "gpt-4o-mini"
  api_key: "${OPENAI_API_KEY}"        # Loaded from environment variable

# Optional: Pinecone settings
pinecone:
  api_key: "${PINECONE_API_KEY}"
  index_name: "my-index"
  environment: "us-east-1-aws"
```

**Set environment variables** in `.env` or your shell:

```bash
export OPENAI_API_KEY="sk-..."
export PINECONE_API_KEY="pcsk-..."
```

Or load from `.env` automatically:

```python
from dotenv import load_dotenv
load_dotenv()

from vectorDBpipe import VDBpipe
pipeline = VDBpipe()
```

---

## 🚀 Quickstart Guide

### Step 1 — Initialize the pipeline

```python
from vectorDBpipe import VDBpipe

# Uses config.yaml + environment variables automatically
pipeline = VDBpipe()

# Or specify a custom config path
pipeline = VDBpipe(config_path="path/to/my_config.yaml")
```

### Step 2 — Ingest your data

```python
# Ingest a single file
pipeline.ingest("data/contract.pdf")

# Ingest an entire directory (recursive)
pipeline.ingest("data/documents/")

# Ingest from a web URL
pipeline.ingest("https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_intelligence")

# Ingest from an S3 bucket
pipeline.ingest("s3://my-company-bucket/legal/contracts/")

# Ingest from Notion
pipeline.ingest("notion://my-workspace-page-id")
```

The ingestion automatically runs **all three phases** in parallel: vectorization, page indexing, and graph building.

### Step 3 — Query using intelligent routing

```python
# OmniRouter automatically picks the best engine
response = pipeline.query("What is the total contract value?")
print(response)

# Force Engine 2 (deep holistic reading)
response = pipeline.query("Summarize the entire document in bullet points.")

# Force Engine 3 (graph-based multi-hop reasoning)
response = pipeline.query("How is the revenue connected to the acquisition in Q4?")
```

### Step 4 — Extract structured data (Engine 4)

```python
schema = {
    "company_names": "list of strings",
    "effective_date": "ISO 8601 date string",
    "total_value_usd": "integer",
    "jurisdiction": "string",
    "penalty_clauses": "list of strings"
}

contract_data = pipeline.extract(
    query="Extract all key terms from the uploaded contract documents.",
    schema=schema
)

print(contract_data["total_value_usd"])     # 2500000
print(contract_data["jurisdiction"])        # "California"
print(contract_data["company_names"])       # ["Acme Corp", "Beta LLC"]
```

---

## 🔬 Advanced Usage

### Using with Google Colab

`vectorDBpipe` runs **perfectly on Google Colab**. Colab's server-grade NVIDIA GPUs (Tesla T4/A100) fully support all PyTorch-based embeddings with no driver or DLL issues.

```python
# Cell 1 — Install
!pip install vectordbpipe

# Cell 2 — Run
from vectorDBpipe import VDBpipe

pipeline = VDBpipe()
pipeline.ingest("https://your-document-url.com/report.pdf")
print(pipeline.query("What are the key risk factors?"))
```

### Multi-Source Ingestion

```python
sources = [
    "data/Q1_report.pdf",
    "data/Q2_report.pdf",
    "https://company.com/annual-report",
    "s3://data-lake/contracts/",
]

for source in sources:
    pipeline.ingest(source)

# Now query across all ingested sources
result = pipeline.query("Compare Q1 and Q2 revenues.")
```

### Override Configuration at Runtime

```python
pipeline = VDBpipe(config_override={
    "llm": {
        "provider": "groq",
        "model_name": "llama3-8b-8192",
        "api_key": "your-groq-key"
    }
})
```

### Accessing the Knowledge Graph Directly

```python
# Access the underlying NetworkX graph
graph = pipeline.graph

# List all entities extracted
nodes = list(graph.nodes())
print(f"Entities found: {nodes}")

# View all relationships
for u, v, data in graph.edges(data=True):
    print(f"  {u}  →[{data['relation']}]→  {v}")
```

### Accessing the PageIndex Directly

```python
# Access the structural document index
page_index = pipeline.page_index

for source, structure in page_index.items():
    print(f"Document: {source}")
    print(f"  Chapters: {structure.get('chapters')}")
    print(f"  Summary: {structure.get('summary')[:150]}...")
```

## 📜 Changelog

### v0.2.2 — Critical Hotfix Release (March 2026) ⭐ Latest

> **Hotfix** — Resolves critical pipeline initialization and engine routing bugs affecting all users of `config_override`.

**Fixed:**
- **Embedder `'NoneType' object has no attribute 'tokenize'`** — `TextPipeline` was using the legacy `model.name` config key instead of the new `embedding.model_name`. This caused `SentenceTransformer(None)` to be created, crashing all ingestion and queries. `_safe_reinit` now completely bypasses legacy keys and reinitializes all providers from `embedding`, `database`, and `llm` config directly.
- **LLM not initialized with `config_override`** — Added missing `sarvam`, `google`, and `cohere` LLM provider support to `_safe_reinit`. Sarvam users were silently getting `self.llm = None` even with a valid API key configured.
- **Graph always empty (0 nodes) after ingestion** — Graph extraction was 100% LLM-gated with no fallback. Added `_regex_graph_extract()` that uses regex pattern matching to extract entity relationships (`X is Y`, `X has Y`, etc.) when no LLM is configured.
- **Corrupted PDF crash (`FzErrorFormat`)** — `_load_pdf` now loads pages by index with per-page `try/except`, skipping broken pages gracefully instead of crashing the entire ingestion.
- **Engine 2/3/4 returning "LLM not configured"** — All three engines now return useful, readable fallback content without an LLM. Engine 2 returns formatted PageIndex structure; Engine 3 returns filtered graph edges plus vector search; Engine 4 returns a helpful config snippet.
- **Engine 3 returning irrelevant graph output** — GraphRAG now filters edges by query keywords, shows a clear `"No direct match"` note, and transparently supplements with vector search when the graph has no matching entities.
- **`generate_response()` signature mismatch** — All engine calls now correctly pass the `retrieved_context` argument to the LLM provider interface.

### v0.2.0 — Omni-RAG Architecture (February 2026)

> **Major Release** — Complete architectural overhaul introducing the 4-engine Omni-RAG stack.

**New:**
- `VDBpipe` orchestrator class with OmniRouter, 4 AI engines, and Tri-Processing ingestion
- `GraphRAG` engine backed by `NetworkX` (Engine 3)
- `Vectorless RAG` engine backed by hierarchical `PageIndex` (Engine 2)
- `LangChain Extract` engine for Pydantic JSON output (Engine 4)
- `DataLoader` rewritten with 15+ source integrations
- `ThreadPoolExecutor` parallel ingestion pipeline
- `PyTest` test suite with 4 core unit tests (all mocked, zero API key requirement)

**Changed:**
- Migrated from `langchain_core.pydantic_v1` → standard `pydantic`
- `TextPipeline` attributes renamed: `embedding` → `embedder`, `db` → `vector_store`
- `setup.py` bumped to version `0.2.0`

**Fixed:**
- OmniRouter misclassification on ambiguous queries
- `load_data()` method API correctly takes no arguments (path set as attribute)
- Package exclusion rules for TUI, Frontend, and Backend directories

---

### v0.1.0 — Initial Release

- Basic `TextPipeline` with Chroma and Pinecone vector DB support
- `SentenceTransformer` embedding provider
- Simple single-engine retrieval
