wurzel
wurzel is the german word for root. So with this framework we provide a combination of the best out of the whole domain of retrieval and beyond.
wurzel is an open-source Python library built to address advanced Extract, Transform, Load (ETL) needs for Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems. It is designed to streamline ETL processes while offering essential features like multi-tenancy, cloud-native deployment support, and job scheduling.
The repository includes initial implementations for widely-used frameworks in the RAG ecosystem, such as Qdrant, Milvus, and Hugging Face, providing users with a strong starting point for building scalable and efficient RAG pipelines.
Features
- Advanced ETL Pipelines: Tailored for the specific needs of RAG systems.
- Multi-Tenancy: Easily manage multiple tenants or projects within a single system.
- Cloud-Native Deployment: Designed for seamless integration with Kubernetes, Docker, and other cloud platforms.
- Scheduling Capabilities: Schedule and manage ETL tasks using built-in or external tools.
- Framework Integrations: Pre-built support for popular tools like Qdrant, Milvus, and Hugging Face.
- Type Security: By leveraging capabilities of pydantic and pandera we ensure type security
Installation
To get started with wurzel, install the library using pip:
pip install wurzel
Run a Step (Two Ways)
1. CLI-based Execution
Run a step using the CLI:
wurzel run <step_file_path> --inputs ./data --output ./out
To inspect the step requirements:
wurzel inspect wurzel.<step_path>
2. Programmatic Execution (Python)
Run a step using the snippet below:
import os
from pathlib import Path
from wurzel.step_executor import BaseStepExecutor
from wurzel.steps.manual_markdown import ManualMarkdownStep
# Create input dir and set folder (required by ManualMarkdownStep)
input_dir = Path("./input")
input_dir.mkdir(exist_ok=True)
abs_input = input_dir.resolve()
os.environ["MANUALMARKDOWNSTEP__FOLDER_PATH"] = str(abs_input)
with BaseStepExecutor() as ex:
ex(ManualMarkdownStep, {abs_input}, Path("./output"))
