set_page_config
function configures the page layout for the web app using Streamlit. -
Setting Sidebar Content: The
set_sidebar
function sets up the sidebar content, which includes information about the developer and links to GitHub and LinkedIn. -
Retrieving Vector Index: The
get_index
function retrieves the vector index from Pinecone, a vector similarity search service. -
Retrieving Response from Chat Engine: The
retrieve_augmented_generation_response
function retrieves the response from the chat engine, powered by LlamaIndex. It also sets up postprocessors for sentence embedding optimization and duplicate removal. -
Initializing Chat Messages: The
