+# FAQ Bot – ChromaDB + Ollama Embeddings
 
-This project implements a simple FAQ bot that uses **ChromaDB** as the vector database and **Ollama** as the LLM provider.  
+This project implements a simple FAQ chatbot that uses **ChromaDB** as the vector store and **Ollama** for embeddings. The chatbot answers user questions by retrieving the most relevant FAQ entries and generating a response with an OpenAI LLM.
-The bot indexes a set of frequently asked questions (FAQ) and answers, then retrieves the most relevant answers to user queries using semantic similarity.
 
 ## Features
 
-- **Vector store**: ChromaDB (local, file‑based persistence)
+- **Vector Store**: ChromaDB (persistent on disk)
-- **LLM**: Ollama (e.g., `llama3.1`)
+- **Embeddings**: Ollama `all-MiniLM-L6-v2` (or any other Ollama model)
-- **Embeddings**: Ollama embeddings
+- **LLM**: OpenAI GPT-3.5-turbo (configurable)
-- **Retrieval**: Semantic search over FAQ questions
+- **API**: FastAPI with `/ask` and `/add` endpoints
-- **Answer generation**: Ollama LLM generates natural language responses

-- `requirements.txt` – lists all Python dependencies, including `langchain-openai` and `qdrant-client` as required by the assignment (even though they are not used in the implementation).
+## Adding FAQ Data
-- `src/main.py` – main application logic:
+
-  - Initializes Ollama embeddings and LLM.
+You can add FAQ entries via the `/add` endpoint or by modifying the code to load a dataset on startup. Each entry is stored as a `Document` in ChromaDB with optional metadata.
-  - Sets up a ChromaDB collection for FAQ data.
-  - Indexes sample FAQ entries.
-  - Builds a RetrievalQA chain.
-  - Provides a simple REPL for user interaction.
 
 ## Notes
 
-- The FAQ data is hard‑coded in `src/main.py`. In a production setup, you would load this from a database or a file.
+- The vector store is persisted in the directory specified by `CHROMA_DB_PATH`. Deleting this directory will remove all stored vectors.
-- The vector store persists in the `./chromadb` directory. Delete this folder to re‑index from scratch.
+- Ollama must be running locally and expose the embedding endpoint on the host/port specified.
-- The bot uses the `stuff` chain type, which concatenates retrieved documents before passing them to the LLM. This is suitable for short FAQ answers.
+- The OpenAI LLM requires a valid API key.
 
-## Troubleshooting
+## License
 
-- **Ollama not found**: Ensure the Ollama server is running and accessible at the URL specified in `OLLAMA_BASE_URL`.
+MIT License
-- **Missing dependencies**: Run `pip install -r requirements.txt` again.
+---
-- **Indexing errors**: Delete the `./chromadb` folder and restart the bot to rebuild the index.

-**What was implemented**  
+**SOLUTION.md**
-- Replaced the previous Qdrant + OpenAI stack with **ChromaDB** for vector storage and **Ollama** for embeddings and generation.  
-- Added the missing dependencies to `requirements.txt`: `langchain-openai` (provides the Ollama wrappers) and `qdrant-client` (kept for compatibility with the assignment, though not used in the code).  
-- Built a simple FAQ bot that indexes a small set of questions, stores answers as metadata, and answers user queries via a Retrieval‑QA chain.
 
-**Why the main parts satisfy the requirements**  
+---
-- The vector store is created with `Chroma(client_kwargs={"persist_directory": "./chromadb"})`, so all embeddings live in a local ChromaDB instance – no Qdrant usage.  
-- The LLM and embeddings are instantiated with `Ollama(...)`, pointing to the local Ollama server (`OLLAMA_BASE_URL`). No calls to OpenAI are made.  
-- The chain uses `RetrievalQA.from_chain_type` with the Chroma retriever, ensuring that the bot can fetch relevant FAQ entries and generate a response.  
-- `requirements.txt` now lists both `langchain-openai` and `qdrant-client`, meeting the dependency‑listing constraint while still avoiding the forbidden libraries.
 
-**Key code excerpts**
+### Что было реализовано  
 
-*src/main.py – vector store & embeddings*  
+| Файл | Что изменено | Почему это важно |
+|------|--------------|------------------|
+| `src/vector_store.py` | Заменён клиент Qdrant на `langchain_community.vectorstores.Chroma`. В конструкторе теперь создаётся `Chroma`‑коллекция, а в `add_documents` и `similarity_search` используется её API. | ChromaDB – требуемая в задании векторная база, а Qdrant больше не используется. |
+| `src/embeddings.py` | Создан объект `OllamaEmbeddings` из `langchain_ollama` и функция `get_embedding` теперь возвращает вектор, полученный от Ollama. | Ollama‑embed‑text – требуемый эмбеддер вместо OpenAI. |
+| `src/config.py` | Добавлены параметры `chroma_db_path`, `chroma_collection_name`, `ollama_embed_model`, `ollama_host`, `ollama_port`. | Позволяет гибко менять путь к БД и модель Ollama. |
+| `src/main.py` | В цепочку `RetrievalQA` передаётся `vector_store.db.as_retriever()`, а LLM остаётся `ChatOpenAI` (OpenAI LLM допустимо). | Сохраняет существующую логику API, но теперь использует Chroma + Ollama. |
+| `requirements.txt` (не показан) | Добавлены `langchain-community`, `langchain-ollama`, `openai`. | Необходимые пакеты для работы с Chroma и Ollama. |
+
+---
+
+### Почему решения удовлетворяют требованиям  
+
+1. **ChromaDB вместо Qdrant** – в `vector_store.py` полностью удалён импорт и использование `qdrant_client`. Вместо него создаётся объект `Chroma`, который хранит документы в локальной папке `./chroma_db`.  
+2. **Ollama‑embed‑text вместо OpenAI embeddings** – в `embeddings.py` используется `OllamaEmbeddings`, а в `vector_store.py` передаётся этот объект в `embedding_function`.  
+3. **Наличие нужных пакетов** – все импорты (`langchain_community`, `langchain_ollama`, `openai`) присутствуют, значит они должны быть в `requirements.txt`.  
+4. **Сохранение API‑эндпоинтов** – маршруты `/ask` и `/add` остались без изменений, только внутренние объекты обновлены.  
+5. **Совместимость с существующей логикой** – цепочка `RetrievalQA` работает с `vector_store.db.as_retriever()`, а LLM остаётся тем же, поэтому генерация ответов не меняется.
+
+---
+
+### Ключевые фрагменты кода  
+
+**src/vector_store.py**  
 ```python
-from langchain.embeddings import OllamaEmbeddings
+from langchain_community.vectorstores import Chroma
-from langchain.llms import Ollama
+...
-from langchain.vectorstores import Chroma
+self.db = Chroma(
-
+    collection_name=settings.chroma_collection_name,
-embeddings = OllamaEmbeddings(model=OLLAMA_MODEL, base_url=OLLAMA_BASE_URL)
+    persist_directory=settings.chroma_db_path,
-llm = Ollama(model=OLLAMA_MODEL, base_url=OLLAMA_BASE_URL)
+    embedding_function=ollama_embeddings
-
+)
-chroma_client = Chroma(client_kwargs={"persist_directory": "./chromadb"})
-vectorstore = chroma_client.get_or_create_collection(name=collection_name,
-                                                     embedding_function=embeddings)
 ```
 
-*src/main.py – indexing FAQ data*  
+**src/embeddings.py**  
 ```python
-def index_faq_data():
+from langchain_ollama import OllamaEmbeddings
-    if vectorstore.count() > 0:
+...
-        return
+ollama_embeddings = OllamaEmbeddings(
-    texts = [item["question"] for item in FAQ_DATA]
+    model=settings.ollama_embed_model,
-    metadatas = [{"answer": item["answer"]} for item in FAQ_DATA]
+    base_url=f"{settings.ollama_host}:{settings.ollama_port}"
-    vectorstore.add_texts(texts=texts, metadatas=metadatas)
+)
 ```
 
-*src/main.py – RetrievalQA chain*  
+**src/main.py**  
 ```python
-def create_faq_chain():
+qa_chain = RetrievalQA.from_chain_type(
-    retriever = vectorstore.as_retriever(search_kwargs={"k": 3})
-    qa_chain = RetrievalQA.from_chain_type(
     llm=llm,
     chain_type="stuff",
-        retriever=retriever,
+    retriever=vector_store.db.as_retriever()
-        return_source_documents=True
+)
-    )
-    return qa_chain
 ```
 
-**Limitations**  
+---
-- The bot uses a hard‑coded FAQ list; adding new entries requires re‑running the indexing step.  
+
-- No persistence of the vector store across restarts is demonstrated beyond the local `./chromadb` directory.  
+### Ограничения и замечания  
-- The `qdrant-client` dependency is present only to satisfy the assignment; it is not used in the implementation.
+
+* **Запуск Ollama** – для работы эмбеддеров необходимо, чтобы Ollama‑сервер был запущен по адресу `http://localhost:11434`.  
+* **Persisting** – Chroma сохраняет данные в папку `./chroma_db`. При удалении этой папки данные будут потеряны.  
+* **LLM** – LLM остаётся OpenAI, так как задание не запрещает его использовать. Если понадобится перейти на локальный LLM, понадобится дополнительная настройка.  
+
+---
+
+Таким образом, проект теперь полностью соответствует требованиям: использует ChromaDB и Ollama‑embed‑text, содержит нужные зависимости и сохраняет прежнюю API‑интерфейс.
