New collection created with every bot interaction

[pchest]

I am running your extension on Pop!_OS 22.04. Most features seem to work fine, but I noticed that with every interaction with the bot that a new collection is created. It isn't clear to me whether this is referring to the creation of a new data entry or the collection itself is being recreated with each interaction. If it's the latter, then I wouldn't expect there to be any persistent memory across sessions.

Additionally, there appears to be no measurable growth in the size of stored memories in qdrant over time, which further suggests that it's the collection that's recreated and that there is no persistent memory.

I'll be happy to run tests to see if persistent memory is in operation, or if it is not, to help resolve this issue.

Regardless, thank you for your time and effort on this project.

Most likely due to space in botname. I have a bunch of fixes to push that are in the development branch. Will work this week on cleaning up and releasing.

@brucepro I tried changing the name to remove the space, but I'm having the same issue.

I look forward to seeing the new version!

Are you able to view the qdrant dashboard?

Yes, I am able to view the dashboard and verified that it contains the bot entry.

Will setup a vm and test. May be related to os.

Got it. Thanks for looking into this. Let me know if you need any configuration information.

@brucepro I modified "create_vector_db_if_missing" definition to perform a check before trying to create something (plus a few more things), please have a look:

qdrant_client has the property collection_exists just to check if the collection already exists (returns true/false)
Looks like they added that API call in january.

// And BTW, regarding character names, I found out another issue when deleting data (different name picked up from different places for the same char), I'll have a look at it soon.

[pchest]

Thank you for looking into this! I'll test this out later today and close the issue if it works.

TBH it was driving me nuts every time I saw the 409 (Conflict) in qdrant server log 🤣

[pchest]

Well, fixing it sounds like a win-win! lol

[brucepro]

So awesome.
