Featurerequest: ConversationalRetrival and definition of chain_type about chatdocs HOT 8 OPEN

I will look into this. If the performance is good, I will make it as default, otherwise will add a config option to enable this.
It will also solve #22

Looking forward to this @marella . Is this still on your to do?

Hi, yes. I was out of station with a slow internet for the past few days, so the progress has slowed down. I will start looking into the pending issues next week.

Great to have you back @marella

@marella been trying to implement this function on my own. I think I might almost be there and have it functional. The problem is that I can't get it to remember the prompt, only the answer of the prompt so far. Let me know if you want to see my changes.

Great! Please share link to your repo/branch.

I did this @marella

Here is my chains.py:

from typing import Any, Callable, Dict, Optional

from langchain.chains import ConversationalRetrievalChain
from langchain.memory import ConversationBufferMemory

from .llms import get_llm
from .vectorstores import get_vectorstore

def get_retrieval_qa(
    config: Dict[str, Any],
    *,
    callback: Optional[Callable[[str], None]] = None,
) -> ConversationalRetrievalChain:
    db = get_vectorstore(config)
    retriever = db.as_retriever(**config["retriever"])
    llm = get_llm(config, callback=callback)
    memory=ConversationBufferMemory(memory_key="chat_history", return_messages=True, input_key="question", output_key="answer")
    return ConversationalRetrievalChain.from_llm(
        llm=llm,
        retriever=retriever,
        return_source_documents=True,
        memory=memory,
    )

In Index.html I changed this:

answer.innerText = res.result; --> answer.innerText = res.answer;

In ui.py I changed this:
res["result"] = data["result"] --> res["answer"] = data["answer"]

from chatdocs.

It repeats the question before it gives an answer and then the repeated question is just removed
