# Python API
Use `haiku.rag` directly in your Python applications.
## Basic Usage
```python
from pathlib import Path
from haiku.rag.client import HaikuRAG
# Use as async context manager (recommended)
async with HaikuRAG("path/to/database.db") as client:
# Your code here
pass
```
## Document Management
### Creating Documents
From text:
```python
doc = await client.create_document(
content="Your document content here",
uri="doc://example",
metadata={"source": "manual", "topic": "example"}
)
```
From file:
```python
doc = await client.create_document_from_source("path/to/document.pdf")
```
From URL:
```python
doc = await client.create_document_from_source("https://example.com/article.html")
```
### Retrieving Documents
By ID:
```python
doc = await client.get_document_by_id(1)
```
By URI:
```python
doc = await client.get_document_by_uri("file:///path/to/document.pdf")
```
List all documents:
```python
docs = await client.list_documents(limit=10, offset=0)
```
### Updating Documents
```python
doc.content = "Updated content"
await client.update_document(doc)
```
### Deleting Documents
```python
await client.delete_document(doc.id)
```
### Rebuilding the Database
```python
async for doc_id in client.rebuild_database():
print(f"Processed document {doc_id}")
```
## Searching Documents
Basic search:
```python
results = await client.search("machine learning algorithms", limit=5)
for chunk, score in results:
print(f"Score: {score:.3f}")
print(f"Content: {chunk.content}")
print(f"Document ID: {chunk.document_id}")
```
With options:
```python
results = await client.search(
query="machine learning",
limit=5, # Maximum results to return
k=60 # RRF parameter for reciprocal rank fusion
)
# Process results
for chunk, relevance_score in results:
print(f"Relevance: {relevance_score:.3f}")
print(f"Content: {chunk.content}")
print(f"From document: {chunk.document_id}")
print(f"Document URI: {chunk.document_uri}")
print(f"Document metadata: {chunk.document_meta}")
```
## Question Answering
Ask questions about your documents:
```python
answer = await client.ask("Who is the author of haiku.rag?")
print(answer)
```
The QA agent will search your documents for relevant information and use the configured LLM to generate a comprehensive answer.
The QA provider and model can be configured via environment variables (see [Configuration](configuration.md)).
