LlamaIndex/Astra pdf table parser for the LlamaIndex and FutureProof Hackathon in Sunnyvale, CA Feb 2 - Feb 4, 2024.

Our aim is to enable semantic search on academic paper evaluation-metrics-tables data at a petabyte-capable scale through recursive approaches, resulting in a comprehensive knowledge graph.

1. Create a .env file based on the .env example (see below)
2. Navigate to the frontend directory --> npm install npm run dev
3. Navigate to the backend directory --> Install the dependencies with e.g. pip install -r requirements.txt. (Python 3.8+ required. Working in a virtual environment is suggested as general best practice).
4. Within the backend directory, run the app with python main.py !

The environment variables expected in the .env file are:

• OPENAI_API_KEY, your OpenAI API key.
• ASTRA_DB_APPLICATION_TOKEN, the Token to access your Astra DB instance. The token must be created with role "Database Administrator".
• ASTRA_DB_API_ENDPOINT, the API ENDPOINT of your Astra DB, which you can find at the top of your dashboard to the right of your AstraDB instance, near the Token.
