Web Capabilities

Web Crawling

PocketGroq now offers advanced web crawling capabilities:

from pocketgroq import GroqProvider

groq = GroqProvider()

# Crawl a website
results = groq.crawl_website(
    "https://example.com",
    formats=["markdown", "html"],
    max_depth=2,
    max_pages=5
)

for page in results:
    print(f"URL: {page['url']}")
    print(f"Title: {page['metadata']['title']}")
    print(f"Markdown content: {page['markdown'][:100]}...")  # First 100 characters
    print("---")

URL Scraping

Extract content from a single URL in various formats:

url = "https://example.com"
result = groq.scrape_url(url, formats=["markdown", "html", "structured_data"])

print(f"Markdown content length: {len(result['markdown'])}")
print(f"HTML content length: {len(result['html'])}")
if 'structured_data' in result:
    print("Structured data:", json.dumps(result['structured_data'], indent=2))

Enhanced Web Search

Perform web searches with improved result parsing:

query = "Latest developments in AI"
search_results = groq.web_search(query)

for result in search_results:
    print(f"Title: {result['title']}")
    print(f"URL: {result['url']}")
    print(f"Description: {result['description']}")
    print("---")

Flexible Ollama Integration

PocketGroq v0.4.5 introduces more flexible integration with Ollama:

• Optional Ollama: Core features of PocketGroq now work without requiring an active Ollama server.
• Graceful Degradation: When Ollama is not available, PocketGroq provides clear error messages for Ollama-dependent features.
• Persistent Features: Ollama is still required for certain persistence features, including RAG functionality.

Initializing RAG with Flexible Ollama Integration

from pocketgroq import GroqProvider

groq = GroqProvider()

try:
    groq.initialize_rag()
    print("RAG initialized successfully with Ollama.")
except OllamaServerNotRunningError:
    print("Ollama server is not running. RAG features will be limited.")
    # Proceed with non-RAG features

Error Handling

PocketGroq v0.4.5 introduces a new exception for Ollama-related errors:

from pocketgroq import GroqProvider, OllamaServerNotRunningError

groq = GroqProvider()

try:
    groq.initialize_rag()
    # Use RAG features
except OllamaServerNotRunningError:
    print("Ollama server is not running. Proceeding with limited functionality.")
    # Use non-RAG features

Updated Test Suite

The test suite has been expanded to cover the new web capabilities and Ollama integration:

# In test.py

def test_web_search():
    print("\nTesting Web Search...")
    query = "What is PocketGroq?"
    results = groq.web_search(query)
    print(f"Search query: {query}")
    print(f"Number of results: {len(results)}")
    assert isinstance(results, list) and len(results) > 0
    print("First result:", results[0])

def test_crawl_website():
    print("\nTesting Website Crawling...")
    url = "https://example.com"
    results = groq.crawl_website(url, formats=["markdown", "html"], max_depth=2, max_pages=5)
    print(f"Crawl results for {url}:")
    print(f"Number of pages crawled: {len(results)}")
    assert isinstance(results, list) and len(results) > 0
    print("First page title:", results[0]['metadata']['title'])

def test_scrape_url():
    print("\nTesting URL Scraping...")
    url = "https://example.com"
    result = groq.scrape_url(url, formats=["markdown", "html", "structured_data"])
    print(f"Scrape result for {url}:")
    assert isinstance(result, dict) and 'markdown' in result and 'html' in result
    print("Markdown content length:", len(result['markdown']))
    print("HTML content length:", len(result['html']))
    if 'structured_data' in result:
        print("Structured data:", json.dumps(result['structured_data'], indent=



## Version 0.4.3 Update

In this latest version (0.4.3), we've made significant improvements to how PocketGroq interacts with the Ollama server:

- **Flexible Ollama Dependency**: PocketGroq no longer requires Ollama to be running all the time. This allows for more versatile use of the library's core features.

- **Persistent Features**: Users should be aware that Ollama will need to be running to take advantage of various persistence features, including RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) functionality.

- **Graceful Handling**: When Ollama-dependent features are accessed without the server running, PocketGroq will now provide clear error messages, allowing users to start the server and retry their request.


### Conversational Persistence

PocketGroq supports maintaining conversation history across multiple interactions, allowing for more coherent and context-aware dialogues.

#### Simple Usage:

```python
from pocketgroq import GroqProvider

groq = GroqProvider()

# Start a new conversation
session_id = "user_123"
groq.start_conversation(session_id)

# First interaction
response1 = groq.generate("What is the capital of France?", session_id=session_id)
print("Response 1:", response1)

# Second interaction (context-aware)
response2 = groq.generate("What is its population?", session_id=session_id)
print("Response 2:", response2)

# End the conversation when done
groq.end_conversation(session_id)

Advanced Usage:

from pocketgroq import GroqProvider

groq = GroqProvider()

def chat_session(topic):
    session_id = f"chat_{topic}"
    groq.start_conversation(session_id)
    
    print(f"Starting chat session about {topic}")
    
    while True:
        user_input = input("You: ")
        if user_input.lower() == 'exit':
            break
        
        response = groq.generate(user_input, session_id=session_id)
        print("AI:", response)
    
    groq.end_conversation(session_id)
    print("Chat session ended")

# Example usage
chat_session("space exploration")

Enhanced RAG with Persistence

PocketGroq's RAG capabilities now support persistent storage of document embeddings, allowing for faster querying and reduced processing time for repeated operations.

Simple Usage:

from pocketgroq import GroqProvider

groq = GroqProvider(rag_persistent=True, rag_index_path="my_persistent_index.pkl")

# Initialize RAG
groq.initialize_rag()

# Load documents (will be stored persistently)
groq.load_documents("https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_intelligence")
groq.load_documents("path/to/local/document.txt")

# Query documents
query = "What are the main applications of AI?"
response = groq.query_documents(query)
print(response)

Advanced Usage: Research Assistant

from pocketgroq import GroqProvider

class ResearchAssistant:
    def __init__(self):
        self.groq = GroqProvider(rag_persistent=True, rag_index_path="research_index.pkl")
        self.groq.initialize_rag()

    def load_source(self, source):
        print(f"Loading source: {source}")
        self.groq.load_documents(source)

    def research(self, topic):
        print(f"Researching: {topic}")
        query = f"Provide a comprehensive summary of {topic} based on the loaded documents."
        response = self.groq.query_documents(query)
        return response

    def generate_report(self, topic, research_summary):
        prompt = f"Based on this research summary about {topic}, generate a detailed report:\n\n{research_summary}"
        report = self.groq.generate(prompt, max_tokens=2000)
        return report

# Example usage
assistant = ResearchAssistant()

# Load multiple sources
assistant.load_source("https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Climate_change")
assistant.load_source("https://www.ipcc.ch/reports/")
assistant.load_source("path/to/local/climate_study.pdf")

# Perform research
research_summary = assistant.research("Impact of climate change on biodiversity")
print("\nResearch Summary:")
print(research_summary)

# Generate a report
report = assistant.generate_report("Impact of climate change on biodiversity", research_summary)
print("\nGenerated Report:")
print(report)

    "Calculating the sum: 129"
]
final_answer = groq.synthesize_cot(cot_steps)
print("Synthesized Answer:", final_answer)

WebTool Functionality

The WebTool provides two main functions:

1. search(query: str, num_results: int = 10) -> List[Dict[str, Any]]: Performs a web search and returns a list of search results.
2. get_web_content(url: str) -> str: Retrieves the content of a web page.

Example: Advanced Web Search and Content Analysis

from pocketgroq import GroqProvider
from pocketgroq.web_tool import WebTool

groq = GroqProvider()
web_tool = WebTool()

# Perform a web search
query = "Recent advancements in renewable energy"
search_results = web_tool.search(query, num_results=3)

# Analyze each search result
for result in search_results:
    print(f"Analyzing: {result['title']}")
    content = web_tool.get_web_content(result['url'])
    
    analysis_prompt = f"Analyze the following content about renewable energy and provide key insights:\n\n{content[:4000]}"
    analysis = groq.generate(analysis_prompt, max_tokens=1000)
    
    print(f"Analysis: {analysis}")
    print("---")

This example demonstrates how to use the WebTool to perform a search, retrieve content from each search result, and then use the GroqProvider to analyze the content.

search_results = web_tool.search(research_topic, num_results=5)

research_summary = groq.generate(
    f"Based on the following search results about '{research_topic}', provide a comprehensive summary:\n\n" +
    "\n".join([f"- {r['title']}: {r['description']}" for r in search_results])
)

print(research_summary)

7. Complex Problem Solving: Utilize PocketGroq's Chain of Thought capabilities for solving intricate problems.

from pocketgroq import GroqProvider

groq = GroqProvider()

complex_problem = """In a small town, 60% of the adults work in manufacturing, 25% work in services, and the rest are unemployed. 
If the town has 10,000 adults and the local government wants to reduce unemployment by half by creating new

Ollama Server Requirement for RAG

The new Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) feature in PocketGroq v0.4.3 requires an Ollama server for generating embeddings. Ollama is an open-source, locally-run language model server that provides fast and efficient embeddings for RAG functionality.

Setting up Ollama

1. Install Ollama: Visit the official Ollama website at https://ollama.ai/ and follow the installation instructions for your operating system.

2. Start the Ollama server: After installation, start the Ollama server by running the following command in your terminal:

   ollama serve
   

3. Pull the required model: PocketGroq uses the 'nomic-embed-text' model for embeddings. Pull this model by running:

   ollama pull nomic-embed-text
   

Configuring PocketGroq for Ollama

By default, PocketGroq will attempt to connect to the Ollama server at http://localhost:11434. If your Ollama server is running on a different address or port, you can specify this when initializing RAG:

groq = GroqProvider()

groq.initialize_rag(ollama_base_url="http://your-ollama-server:port")

Troubleshooting

• Ensure the Ollama server is running before using RAG features in PocketGroq.
• If you encounter connection errors, check that the Ollama server is accessible at the expected address and port.
• For Windows users using WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux), you may need to adjust the base URL to point to your WSL IP address instead of localhost.

For more detailed information about Ollama, including advanced configuration and available models, please refer to the Ollama documentation.

Configuration

PocketGroq uses environment variables for configuration. Set GROQ_API_KEY in your environment or in a .env file in your project root. This API key is essential for authenticating with the Groq API.

Example of setting the API key in a .env file:

GROQ_API_KEY=your_api_key_here

Make sure to keep your API key confidential and never commit it to version control.

Error Handling

PocketGroq raises custom exceptions to help you handle errors more effectively:

• GroqAPIKeyMissingError: Raised when the Groq API key is missing.
• GroqAPIError: Raised when there's an error with the Groq API.

Handle these exceptions in your code for robust error management. For example:

from pocketgroq import GroqProvider, GroqAPIKeyMissingError, GroqAPIError

try:
    groq = GroqProvider()
    response = groq.generate("Hello, world!")
except GroqAPIKeyMissingError:
    print("Please set your GROQ_API_KEY environment variable.")
except GroqAPIError as e:
    print(f"An error occurred while calling the Groq API: {e}")
