Quick Start

1. Initialize Project

rag-sentinel init

This creates:

• config.ini - App settings and authentication
• rag_eval_config.yaml - Master configuration
• test_dataset.csv - Sample test dataset

2. Configure

Edit .env file:

• Add your LLM API keys (Azure OpenAI, OpenAI, or Ollama credentials)
• Set API endpoints and deployment names

Edit config.ini file:

• Set your RAG backend URL in app_url
• Set API paths for context and answer endpoints (context_api_path, answer_api_path)
• Configure authentication (cookie, bearer token, or API key)
• Set MLflow tracking URI (default: http://127.0.0.1:5000)

Edit test_dataset.csv file:

• Add your test queries in format: query,ground_truth,chat_id
• Example: What is RAG?,RAG stands for Retrieval-Augmented Generation,1

For detailed configuration help, see the comments in each config file.
