cpr-sdk

Internal library for persistent access to text data.

Warning This library is heavily under construction and doesn't work with any of our open data yet. We're working on making it usable for anyone.

Documents and Datasets

The base document model of this library is BaseDocument, which contains only the metadata fields that are used in the parser.

Loading from Huggingface Hub (recommended)

The Dataset class is automatically configured with the Huggingface repos we use. You can optionally provide a document limit, a dataset version, and override the repo that the data is loaded from.

If the repository is private you must provide a user access token, either in your environment as HUGGINGFACE_TOKEN, or as an argument to from_huggingface.

from cpr_sdk.models import Dataset, GSTDocument

dataset = Dataset(GSTDocument).from_huggingface(
    version="d8363af072d7e0f87ec281dd5084fb3d3f4583a9", # commit hash, optional
    limit=1000,
    token="my-huggingface-token", # required for private repos if not in env
)

The following flag is used for the passage level and flat dataset.

dataset = Dataset(
    document_model=BaseDocument
).from_huggingface(
    dataset_name="ClimatePolicyRadar/passage-level-flat-dataset",
    passage_level_and_flat=True
)

Loading from local storage or s3

# document_id is also the filename stem

document = BaseDocument.load_from_local(folder_path="path/to/data/", document_id="document_1234")

document = BaseDocument.load_from_remote(dataset_key"s3://cpr-data", document_id="document_1234")

To manage metadata, documents need to be loaded into a Dataset object.

from cpr_sdk.models import Dataset, CPRDocument, GSTDocument

dataset = Dataset().load_from_local("path/to/data", limit=1000)
assert all([isinstance(document, BaseDocument) for document in dataset])

dataset_with_metadata = dataset.add_metadata(
    target_model=CPRDocument,
    metadata_csv="path/to/metadata.csv",
)

assert all([isinstance(document, CPRDocument) for document in dataset_with_metadata])

Datasets have a number of methods for filtering and accessing documents.

len(dataset)
>>> 1000

dataset[0]
>>> CPRDocument(...)

# Filtering
dataset.filter("document_id", "1234")
>>> Dataset()

dataset.filter_by_language("en")
>>> Dataset()

# Filtering using a function
dataset.filter("document_id", lambda x: x in ["1234", "5678"])
>>> Dataset()

Search

This library can also be used to run searches against CPR documents and passages in Vespa.

from src.cpr_sdk.search_adaptors import VespaSearchAdapter
from src.cpr_sdk.models.search import SearchParameters

adaptor = VespaSearchAdapter(instance_url="YOUR_INSTANCE_URL")

request = SearchParameters(query_string="forest fires")

response = adaptor.search(request)

The above example will return a SearchResponse object, which lists some basic information about the request, and the results, arranged as a list of Families, which each contain relevant Documents and/or Passages.

Sorting

By default, results are sorted by relevance, but can be sorted by date, or name, eg

request = SearchParameters(
    query_string="forest fires",
    sort_by="date",
    sort_order="descending",
)

Filters

Matching documents can also be filtered by keyword field, and by publication date

request = SearchParameters(
    query_string="forest fires",
    filters={
        "language": ["English", "French"],
        "category": ["Executive"],
    },
    year_range=(2010, 2020)
)

Search within families or documents

A subset of families or documents can be retrieved for search using their ids

request = SearchParameters(
    query_string="forest fires",
    family_ids=["CCLW.family.10121.0", "CCLW.family.4980.0"],
)

request = SearchParameters(
    query_string="forest fires",
    document_ids=["CCLW.executive.10121.4637", "CCLW.legislative.4980.1745"],
)

Types of query

The default search approach uses a nearest neighbour search ranking.

Its also possible to search for exact matches instead:

request = SearchParameters(
    query_string="forest fires",
    exact_match=True,
)

Or to ignore the query string and search the whole database instead:

request = SearchParameters(
    year_range=(2020, 2024),
    sort_by="date",
    sort_order="descending",
)

Continuing results

The response objects include continuation tokens, which can be used to get more results.

For the next selection of families:

response = adaptor.search(SearchParameters(query_string="forest fires"))

follow_up_request = SearchParameters(
    query_string="forest fires"
    continuation_tokens=[response.continuation_token],

)
follow_up_response = adaptor.search(follow_up_request)

It is also possible to get more hits within families by using the continuation token on the family object, rather than at the responses root

Note that this_continuation_token is used to mark the current continuation of the families, so getting more passages for a family after getting more families would look like this:

follow_up_response = adaptor.search(follow_up_request)

this_token = follow_up_response.this_continuation_token
passage_token = follow_up_response.families[0].continuation_token

follow_up_request = SearchParameters(
    query_string="forest fires"
    continuation_tokens=[this_token, passage_token],
)

Get a specific document

Users can also fetch single documents directly from Vespa, by document ID

adaptor.get_by_id(document_id="id:YOUR_NAMESPACE:YOUR_SCHEMA_NAME::SOME_DOCUMENT_ID")

All of the above search functionality assumes that a valid set of vespa credentials is available in ~/.vespa, or in a directory supplied to the VespaSearchAdapter constructor directly. See the docs for more information on how vespa expects credentials.

Test setup

Some tests rely on a local running instance of vespa.

This requires the vespa cli to be installed.

Setup can then be run with:

poetry install --all-extras --with dev
poetry shell
make vespa_dev_setup
make test

Alternatively, to only run non-vespa tests:

make test_not_vespa

For clean up:

make vespa_dev_down

Release Flow:

• Make updates to the package.
• Bump the package version in the cpr_sdk/version.py module.
• Make a PR.
  • In CI/CD we will check that the version is greater than the latest release.
• Merge.
• Tag a release manually in github with a version that matches the latest on main that you just merged.
  • In CI/CD we will check that the latest release matches the versions defined in code.
• Check in pypi.
