Do you need to file a feature request?

  • I have searched the existing feature request and this feature request is not already filed.
  • I believe this is a legitimate feature request, not just a question or bug.

Feature Request Description

The Docling package is quite large, takes a long time to install, and is prone to errors. Therefore, it is not recommended to dynamically install Docling when the LightRAG server starts.

Instead, if the server detects that the document extraction option has enabled Docling during startup, it should check whether Docling has been properly installed. If not, it should prompt the user to manually install Docling first and refuse to start the server.
