Indexify Extractor SDK to build new extractors for extraction from unstructured data

Indexify Extractor SDK

Indexify Extractor SDK is for developing new extractors to extract information from any unstructured data sources.

We already have a few extractors here - https://github.com/tensorlakeai/indexify If you don't find one that works for your use-case use this SDK to build one.

Install the SDK

Install the SDK from PyPi

virtualenv ve
source ve/bin/activate
pip install indexify-extractor-sdk

Implement the extractor SDK

There are two ways to implement an extractor. If you don't need any setup/teardown or additional functionality, check out the decorator:

from indexify_extractor_sdk import Content, extractor

@extractor()
def my_extractor(content: Content, params: dict) -> List[Content]:
    return [
        Content.from_text(
            text="Hello World",
            features=[
                Feature.embedding(values=[1, 2, 3]),
                Feature.metadata(json.loads('{"a": 1, "b": "foo"}')),
            ],
            labels={"url": "test.com"},
        ),
        Content.from_text(
            text="Pipe Baz",
            features=[Feature.embedding(values=[1, 2, 3])],
            labels={"url": "test.com"},
        ),
    ]

Note: @extractor() takes many parameters, check out the documentation for more details.

For more advanced use cases, check out the class:

from indexify_extractor_sdk import Content, Extractor, Feature
from pydantic import BaseModel

class InputParams(BaseModel):
    pass

class MyExtractor(Extractor):
    input_mime_types = ["text/plain", "application/pdf", "image/jpeg"]

    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()

    def extract(self, content: Content, params: InputParams) -> List[Content]:
        return [
            Content.from_text(
                text="Hello World",
                features=[
                    Feature.embedding(values=[1, 2, 3]),
                    Feature.metadata(json.loads('{"a": 1, "b": "foo"}')),
                ],
                labels={"url": "test.com"},
            ),
            Content.from_text(
                text="Pipe Baz",
                features=[Feature.embedding(values=[1, 2, 3])],
                labels={"url": "test.com"},
            ),
        ]

    def sample_input(self) -> Content:
        return Content.from_text("hello world")

Test the extractor

You can run the extractor locally using the command line tool attached to the SDK like this, by passing some arbitrary text or a file.

indexify-extractor local my_extractor:MyExtractor --text "hello"

Deploy the extractor

Once you are ready to deploy the new extractor and ready to build pipelines with it. Package the extractor and deploy as many copies you want, and point it to the indexify server. Indexify server has two addresses, one for sending your extractor the extraction task, and another endpoint for your extractor to write the extracted content.
