### 4. CLI Usage
GraphRAG-rs provides two CLI tools:
#### Smart CLI (Recommended) - `simple_cli`
Automatically detects if the knowledge graph needs building and handles everything for you:
```bash
# Build the Smart CLI
cargo build --release --bin simple_cli
# Process document and answer question in one command
cargo run --bin simple_cli config.toml "What are the main themes?"
# Interactive mode - builds graph if needed, then waits for questions
cargo run --bin simple_cli config.toml
# How it works:
# 1. Loads your TOML configuration
# 2. Checks if knowledge graph exists
# 3. Builds graph if needed (shows progress)
# 4. Answers your question using Ollama
# 5. Saves results to output directory
```
#### Manual CLI - `graphrag-rs`
For advanced users who want full control:
```bash
# Build the manual CLI
cargo build --release
# Step 1: Build knowledge graph
./target/release/graphrag-rs config.toml build
# Step 2: Query the graph
./target/release/graphrag-rs config.toml query "Your question"
```
## Configuration
### Basic Configuration (config.toml)
The project includes several ready-to-use configuration templates:
**Available Templates:**
- `config.toml` - Basic configuration for general use
- `config_complete.toml` - Full configuration with all options
- `config_tom_sawyer.toml` - Pre-configured for book processing
- `config_example.toml` - Annotated template with explanations
**Essential Configuration Fields:**
```toml
[general]
# IMPORTANT: Change these two paths for your project!
input_document_path = "path/to/your/document.txt" # Your document to process
output_dir = "./output/your_project" # Where to save results
[pipeline]
chunk_size = 800 # Size of text chunks (adjust based on document type)
chunk_overlap = 200 # Overlap to preserve context between chunks
[ollama]
enabled = true
host = "http://localhost"
port = 11434
chat_model = "llama3.1:8b" # LLM for text generation
embedding_model = "nomic-embed-text" # Model for embeddings
```
**Quick Setup:**
1. Copy a template: `cp config_complete.toml my_project.toml`
2. Edit `input_document_path` to point to your document
3. Edit `output_dir` to set where results are saved
4. Run: `cargo run --bin simple_cli my_project.toml`
See [config_example.toml](config_example.toml) for detailed explanations of all options.
### Embedding Providers Configuration
GraphRAG Core supports **8 embedding providers** for maximum flexibility:
```toml
[embeddings]
backend = "huggingface" # Free, offline (default)
# backend = "openai" # Best quality ($0.13/1M tokens)
# backend = "voyage" # Anthropic recommended
# backend = "cohere" # Multilingual (100+ languages)
# backend = "jina" # Cost-optimized ($0.02/1M)
# backend = "mistral" # RAG-optimized
# backend = "together" # Cheapest ($0.008/1M)
# backend = "ollama" # Local GPU
model = "sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2"
dimension = 384
batch_size = 32
cache_dir = "~/.cache/huggingface"
# For API providers, set api_key or use environment variables
# api_key = "your-key" # Or set OPENAI_API_KEY, VOYAGE_API_KEY, etc.
```
**Provider Comparison:**
| **HuggingFace** | Free | ★★★★ | Offline, 100+ models |
| **OpenAI** | $0.13/1M | ★★★★★ | Best quality |

**⚠️ Important: Feature Compatibility**
- `persistent-storage` and `neural-embeddings` are **mutually exclusive** due to dependency conflicts
- Choose based on your use case:
- **For production RAG with vector storage**: Use `persistent-storage` (LanceDB + qdrant)
- **For ML experiments with neural nets**: Use `neural-embeddings` (Candle + qdrant)
- **For development**: Use neither (minimal dependencies)
See the feature flags section above for technical details on dependency selection.
For detailed architecture, see [HOW_IT_WORKS.md](HOW_IT_WORKS.md).
## API Reference
### Core Types
```rust
// Main GraphRAG interface
pub struct GraphRAG { /* ... */ }
// Document representation
pub struct Document {
pub id: String,
pub content: String,
pub metadata: HashMap<String, String>,
}
// Query results
pub struct QueryResult {
pub answer: String,
pub confidence: f32,
pub sources: Vec<String>,
}
```
### Main Methods
```rust
impl GraphRAG {
// Create new instance
pub fn new(config: Config) -> Result<Self>;
// Add content
pub fn add_document(&mut self, doc: Document) -> Result<()>;
pub fn add_text(&mut self, text: &str) -> Result<()>;
// Query
pub fn ask(&self, question: &str) -> Result<String>;
pub fn query(&self, question: &str) -> Result<QueryResult>;
// Management
pub fn clear(&mut self);
pub fn save(&self, path: &str) -> Result<()>;
pub fn load(&mut self, path: &str) -> Result<()>;
}
```
## Performance Tuning
### Memory Optimization
```toml
[performance]
chunk_size = 500 # Smaller chunks use less memory
max_entities_per_chunk = 10
enable_caching = false
```
### Speed Optimization
```toml
[performance]
enable_parallel = true
num_threads = 8 # Adjust based on CPU cores
batch_size = 50
```
### Accuracy Optimization
```toml
[pipeline]
chunk_overlap = 400 # Higher overlap preserves more context
min_confidence = 0.7
enable_reranking = true
```
## Troubleshooting
### Common Issues
**Build fails with "rust version" error**
```bash
# Update Rust
rustup update
```
**Out of memory error**
```toml
# Reduce chunk size in config.toml
chunk_size = 300
enable_parallel = false
```
**Slow processing**
```toml
# Enable parallel processing
enable_parallel = true
num_threads = 8
```
**Ollama connection error**
```bash
# Ensure Ollama is running
ollama serve
# Check if model is available
ollama list
```
### Debug Mode
```bash
# Enable debug logging
RUST_LOG=debug cargo run --bin simple_cli config.toml
# Enable backtrace for errors
RUST_BACKTRACE=1 cargo run
```

## FAQ
**Q: What file formats are supported?**
A: Currently supports plain text (.txt) and markdown (.md). PDF support is planned.
**Q: Can I use this without Ollama?**
A: Yes, the library includes a mock LLM for testing and can work with embeddings only.
**Q: How much memory does it need?**
A: Typically under 100MB for documents up to 500k characters.
**Q: Is it production ready?**
A: Yes, with 214 passing tests, zero warnings, and production-grade structured logging throughout the core library.
**Q: Can I use commercial LLMs?**
A: OpenAI support is planned. Currently works with Ollama's local models.
