+# BasicRAG Project
+
+This project implements a basic RAG based Question-Answering system using LangChain, Ollama, and Qdrant.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Python 3.8 or higher
+- Ollama running locally (for LLM)
+- Qdrant running locally (for vector storage)
+
+## project structure
+```tree
+.
+├── Dockerfile
+├── __init__.py
+├── api_server.py
+├── client.py
+├── custom_templates.py
+├── data
+│   └── mlops.pdf
+├── main.py
+├── readme.md
+├── requirements.txt
+└── simple_rag.py
+```
+
+## Installation
+
+1. `pip install bootstrap-rag`
+
+### Setting up Ollama and Qdrant
+Method 1:
+1. navigate to root_folder/setups
+2. run the docker-compose-dev.yml
+3. run the pull_model as per the underlying OS
+
+Method 2:
+1. Install and run Ollama:
+   - Follow the instructions at [Ollama's official website](https://ollama.ai/) to install Ollama.
+   - Make sure Ollama is running and accessible at `http://localhost:11434`.
+
+2. Install and run Qdrant:
+   - Follow the instructions at [Qdrant's official website](https://qdrant.tech/documentation/quick-start/) to install Qdrant.
+   - Make sure Qdrant is running and accessible at `http://localhost:6333`.
+
+## How to Run
+1. Create a virtual environment (optional but recommended):
+   ```
+   python -m venv venv
+   source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows, use `venv\Scripts\activate`
+   ```
+2. run `bootstraprag create <your_poc_project_name>`
+
+3. Install the required dependencies:
+   ```
+   pip install -r requirements.txt
+   ```
+
+### Usage
+
+1. Prepare your MLOps PDF document and place it in the `data` directory.
+
+2. Update the `.env` file with your specific configuration:
+    - Update the `file_path` to point to your PDF document.
+    - Update the `collection_name` if you want to use a different name for your Qdrant collection.
+    - Update the `qdrant_url` and `qdrant_api_key` if your Qdrant setup is different.
+
+3. Run the script:
+   ```
+   python main.py
+   ```
+   or
+   ```
+   python api_server.py
+   ```
