Generalize index and embedding pipeline to major open source repositories

Closed this issue · 1 comments

Issue:

To advance our understanding of various open-source projects and increase our system's intelligence, we need to generate embeddings for key open source repositories like LangChain, LLamaIndex, etc. By representing these repositories as embeddings, we can leverage them for better code analysis, similarity checks, and code comprehension.

In our existing system, we create embeddings for our own codebase using an OpenAIEmbeddingProvider and a SymbolCodeEmbeddingHandler. We test extending this functionality to include the mentioned open-source repositories.

Implementation:

Primarily, the steps involve:

  1. Set up the codebase of each open-source repository in a similar manner to our own.
  2. Use the OpenAIEmbeddingProvider to generate embeddings for the symbols in the repositories.
  3. The SymbolCodeEmbeddingHandler will process these embeddings and save them for future use.

We need to adapt our existing run_code_embedding script to handle these open source repositories, which would involve:

  • Initializing the necessary components like the py_module_loader.
  • Setting up the correct paths for the index-file and code-embedding-file for each repository.
  • Creating instances of OpenAIEmbeddingProvider and SymbolCodeEmbeddingHandler.
  • Processing each symbol in the repository and generating the respective embeddings.

Points to consider:

  1. Repository Setup: Different repositories might have different setup requirements. Keep this in mind while setting up the repositories.
  2. Scalability: As more repositories are added, the system should be able to handle the increase in data efficiently.
  3. Automation: Consider automating the process of setting up new repositories and generating embeddings.
  4. Error Handling & Testing: Proper error handling mechanisms should be in place to handle potential issues during the setup or embedding generation process. Additionally, perform thorough testing to ensure the system's performance and reliability.

Tasks:

  • Set up open source repositories.
  • Adapt the run_code_embedding script to handle the open-source repositories.
  • Create instances of OpenAIEmbeddingProvider and SymbolCodeEmbeddingHandler for each repository.
  • Generate embeddings for each repository.
  • Automate the process for easy addition of more repositories in the future.
  • Implement error handling and thorough testing.

As always, don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions or need further clarification. Your contributions to this project are highly valued!

We also have to think about how to keep the embeddings updated with the latest commits in any open-source repository. Like how to incrementally build the embeddings without processing all the symbols again.
