-# FAQ Bot with Qdrant Vector Store
+# FAQ Bot – ChromaDB + Ollama
 
-This project implements a simple FAQ chatbot that uses **Qdrant** as the vector store for embeddings.  
+This project implements a simple FAQ bot that answers user queries using a vector store backed by **ChromaDB** and embeddings generated by **Ollama**. The bot is orchestrated with **LangChain** and includes a small tool that returns the current system time.
-The bot loads a set of FAQ entries, generates embeddings with OpenAI’s `text-embedding-ada-002` model, stores them in Qdrant, and answers user queries by performing a similarity search.
+
+## Features
+
+- **Vector Store**: ChromaDB for persistent storage of FAQ embeddings.
+- **Embeddings**: Generated with Ollama (e.g., `llama3`).
+- **LLM**: Ollama LLM for generating responses.
+- **RetrievalQA**: LangChain chain that retrieves relevant FAQ answers.
+- **MCP‑Tool**: A single tool that returns the current time when the user asks about time or date.
+- **CLI**: Simple command‑line interface to ask questions or ingest data.
+- **Web API**: FastAPI endpoint (`POST /ask`) for programmatic access.
 
 ## Prerequisites
 
-- Python 3.9+
+- Python 3.10+
-- A running Qdrant instance (local or remote)
+- Docker (optional, for running Ollama locally)
-- An OpenAI API key
+- Ollama server running locally (default port 11434)
 
-## Setup
+## Installation
 
-1. **Clone the repository**
+```bash
+# Clone the repository
+git clone https://git.brojs.ru/kuzakhmetovartur/povtornyy-ekzamen-faq-bot-chromadb-odin.git
+cd povtornyy-ekzamen-faq-bot-chromadb-odin
 
-   ```bash
+# Create a virtual environment
-   git clone https://git.brojs.ru/kuzakhmetovartur/povtornyy-ekzamen-faq-bot-qdrant.git
+python -m venv .venv
-   cd povtornyy-ekzamen-faq-bot-qdrant
+source .venv/bin/activate   # On Windows use `.venv\Scripts\activate`
-   ```
 
-2. **Create a virtual environment and install dependencies**
+# Install dependencies
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+```
 
-   ```bash
+## Environment Variables
-   python -m venv venv
-   source venv/bin/activate   # On Windows use `venv\Scripts\activate`
-   pip install -r requirements.txt
-   ```
 
-3. **Configure environment variables**
+Create a `.env` file in the project root (a template is provided):
 
-   Create a `.env` file in the project root with the following content:
+```
+OLLAMA_MODEL=llama3
+CHROMA_DB_PATH=./chromadb
+```
 
-   ```dotenv
+- `OLLAMA_MODEL`: Name of the Ollama model to use (e.g., `llama3`).
-   # Qdrant configuration
+- `CHROMA_DB_PATH`: Directory where ChromaDB will store its data.
-   QDRANT_HOST=localhost
-   QDRANT_PORT=6333
-   QDRANT_API_KEY=   # leave empty if no API key is required
 
-   # OpenAI configuration
+## FAQ Data
-   OPENAI_API_KEY=your_openai_api_key_here
-   ```
 
-   Replace `your_openai_api_key_here` with your actual OpenAI API key.
+Place your FAQ data in `data/faq.csv`. The file must contain two columns:
 
-4. **Run the bot**
+| question | answer |
+|----------|--------|
 
-   ```bash
+A sample file is included in the repository.
-   python src/main.py
-   ```
 
-   The bot will ingest the FAQ data into Qdrant and then wait for user input. Type a question and press Enter to receive an answer. Type `exit` or `quit` to stop the bot.
+## Usage
 
-## How It Works
+### CLI
 
-1. **Embedding Generation**  
+```bash
-   The bot uses OpenAI’s `text-embedding-ada-002` to convert each FAQ question into a 1536‑dimensional vector.
+# Ingest FAQ data (if not already ingested)
+python -m src.main ask "What is the return policy?" --init
 
-2. **Vector Store**  
+# Ask a question
-   Qdrant stores these vectors in a collection named `faq_collection`. Each point contains the vector and a payload with the original question and answer.
+python -m src.main ask "How do I track my order?"
+```
 
-3. **Querying**  
+The `--init` flag forces re‑ingestion of the FAQ data. If the vector store is empty, it will be ingested automatically.
-   When a user asks a question, the bot generates an embedding for the query, performs a cosine similarity search in Qdrant, and returns the answer from the most similar FAQ entry.
 
-## Customization
+### Web API
 
-- **Adding More FAQs**  
+```bash
-  Edit the `FAQ_DATA` list in `src/main.py` to include additional question/answer pairs.
+# Start the server
+python -m src.main serve
 
-- **Changing the Embedding Model**  
+# Send a request
-  Replace `"text-embedding-ada-002"` in `get_embedding()` with another OpenAI embedding model if desired.
+curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/ask \
+     -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+     -d '{"question":"What payment methods are accepted?"}'
+```
 
-- **Adjusting Search Parameters**  
+The response will be a JSON object:
-  Modify `top_k` in `query_faq()` to return more results or change the similarity metric in `create_or_recreate_collection()`.
 
-## Troubleshooting
+```json
+{
+  "answer": "We accept credit cards, debit cards, and PayPal."
+}
+```
 
-- **Qdrant Connection Errors**  
+### Adding New FAQ Entries
-  Ensure Qdrant is running and reachable at the host/port specified in the `.env` file.
 
-- **OpenAI Rate Limits**  
+1. Append new rows to `data/faq.csv`.
-  If you hit rate limits, consider adding retry logic or using a different model.
+2. Re‑index the vector store:
 
-- **Missing Dependencies**  
+```bash
-  Run `pip install -r requirements.txt` again to ensure all packages are installed.
+python -m src.main ask "dummy" --init
+```
+
+The `--init` flag will ingest all entries, overwriting the existing collection.
+
+## MCP‑Tool
+
+The bot includes a simple tool that returns the current system time. If a user query contains the words `time` or `date`, the tool is invoked automatically.
+
+Example:
+
+```bash
+python -m src.main ask "What time is it?"
+```
+
+Output:
+
+```
+Answer: 2026-08-01 14:32:07
+```
+
+## Development
+
+- **Testing**: Run the CLI or API locally to verify functionality.
+- **Docker**: You can containerize the application, but it is not included in this repository.
+
+## Known Limitations
+
+- Requires a local Ollama server; no external API calls are made.
+- ChromaDB persistence is simple; for production use, consider a more robust storage backend.
+- The MCP‑tool is minimal; replace or extend it as needed.

 **What was implemented**  
-- Replaced the former ChromaDB vector store with **Qdrant**.  
+- Replaced the previous Qdrant/OpenAI stack with **ChromaDB** for vector storage and **Ollama** for embeddings and LLM.  
-- Updated the code to use `qdrant_client` for collection creation, upsert, and search.  
+- Added the missing packages `langchain-community` and `langchain-ollama` to `requirements.txt`.  
-- Removed all Chroma imports and added the necessary Qdrant imports.  
+- Built a single‑tool FAQ bot that can be used from a CLI or a tiny FastAPI web interface.  
-- Adjusted the dependency list (e.g., `qdrant-client` added, `chromadb` removed).  
+- The bot uses a Retrieval‑QA chain powered by the Chroma collection and an “CurrentTime” MCP‑tool that is invoked when the user asks about time or date.  
 
-**Why the main parts satisfy the requirements**  
+**Why the main parts satisfy the assignment**  
-- The bot now connects to a Qdrant instance (`QdrantClient(host=..., port=..., api_key=...)`) and uses it for all vector operations, fulfilling the “must use Qdrant” constraint.  
+- **ChromaDB + Ollama**:  
-- `create_or_recreate_collection` guarantees that the collection exists with the correct vector size and distance metric, so the vector store is correctly configured.  
+  ```python
-- `ingest_faqs` generates embeddings with OpenAI, wraps them in `PointStruct` objects, and upserts them into Qdrant, ensuring the FAQ data is stored.  
+  from langchain_ollama import Ollama, OllamaEmbeddings
-- `query_faq` performs a similarity search on Qdrant and returns the answer payload, providing the expected FAQ‑bot behaviour.  
+  from langchain.vectorstores import Chroma
+  embeddings = OllamaEmbeddings(model=OLLAMA_MODEL)
+  llm = Ollama(model=OLLAMA_MODEL)
+  client = Client(path=CHROMA_DB_PATH)
+  collection = client.get_or_create_collection(name="faq")
+  vectorstore = Chroma(collection=collection, embedding=embeddings)
+  ```  
+  These lines show that the vector store is Chroma and the embeddings/LLM come from Ollama, satisfying the core requirement.  
+
+- **Retrieval‑QA chain**:  
+  ```python
+  retrieval_chain = RetrievalQA.from_chain_type(
+      llm=llm,
+      chain_type="stuff",
+      retriever=vectorstore.as_retriever(),
+      chain_type_kwargs={"prompt": prompt},
+  )
+  ```  
+  The chain uses the Chroma retriever and the Ollama LLM, so answers are generated from the FAQ data stored in Chroma.  
+
+- **MCP‑tool integration**:  
+  ```python
+  def get_current_time(_input: str) -> str:
+      return datetime.now().strftime("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")
+  time_tool = Tool(
+      name="CurrentTime",
+      description="Returns the current system time. Useful when the user asks about the time or date.",
+      func=get_current_time,
+  )
+  ```  
+  The tool is registered and called in `answer_query` when the question contains “time” or “date”.  
+
+- **CLI & web interface**:  
+  ```python
+  @cli.command()
+  @click.argument("question", nargs=-1, required=True)
+  def ask(question, init):
+      ...
+  @app.post("/ask", response_model=AnswerResponse)
+  async def ask_endpoint(req: QuestionRequest):
+      ...
+  ```  
+  These provide two simple ways to interact with the bot locally.

 **Honest limitations**  
-- The script assumes a running Qdrant instance reachable at the configured host/port; no fallback or retry logic is implemented.  
+- The solution assumes an Ollama server is running locally and reachable; no fallback or error handling for connection failures.  
-- Error handling is minimal – connection failures or embedding errors will raise exceptions.  
+- The FAQ ingestion is a one‑time upsert; updates to the CSV after startup require re‑running the `ingest_faq` step.  
-- The FAQ data is hard‑coded; adding new FAQs requires editing the source or extending the ingestion logic.  
+- No advanced prompt tuning or chain‑type customization beyond the simple “stuff” strategy.  
+- The web server is started with `uvicorn` in reload mode; for production use a more robust deployment setup would be needed.  
 
-These changes bring the project fully in line with the assignment’s requirement to use Qdrant as the vector store.
+Overall, the code now meets all constraints: it uses ChromaDB, Ollama embeddings, includes the required packages, and provides a functional FAQ bot with a single MCP‑tool.
