Project Setup Guide (In-progress)

Overview

This guide walks you through the setup process for the 'analyticalite' project, which includes both backend and frontend components.

Prerequisites

Before you start, ensure you have Python and Node.js installed on your system.

• Python: Download it based on your operating system from Python Downloads.
• Node.js: Download and install Node.js from Node.js Downloads. For macOS users, you can also install it using Homebrew:

brew install node

Backend Setup

Navigate to the analyticalite/backend directory:

1. Create a Python Virtual Environment:

python -m venv ./venv

or

python3 -m venv ./venv

2. Activate the Virtual Environment:

. venv/bin/activate

Note: This will be different for Windows.

3. Install Dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt

4. Install Llama-CPP-Python:

For a default CPU-only build:

pip install llama-cpp-python

For a mixed CPU+GPU build on Macs with GPUs:

CMAKE_ARGS=”-DLLAMA_METAL=on” pip install llama-cpp-python

Note: Windows users might need additional installation steps.

5. Download Llama Model:

huggingface-cli download TheBloke/Llama-2-7b-Chat-GGUF llama-2-7b-chat.Q8_0.gguf --local-dir ./models --local-dir-use-symlinks False

6. Start the Backend Server:

uvicorn main:app

Note: If this doesn’t start open up a new terminal and run this command again in the same directory with the activated venv.

Frontend Setup

Navigate to the analyticalite/frontend directory and run:

1. Install Node Modules

npm install

2. Start the Frontend Server:

npm run dev
