## Running Locally

1. Check pre-conditions:

- [Git Large File Storage (LFS)](https://git-lfs.com/) must have been installed.
- Run `python --version` to make sure you're running Python version 3.10 or above.
- The latest PyTorch with GPU support must have been installed. Here is a sample `conda` command:

```
conda install -y pytorch torchvision torchaudio pytorch-cuda=12.1 -c pytorch -c nvidia
```


1. Clone the repo

```
git lfs install 
git clone https://huggingface.co/spaces/inflaton-ai/llm-qa-bench
```

3. Install packages

```
pip install -r requirements.txt

4. Set up your environment variables

- By default, environment variables are loaded from `.env.example` file
- If you don't want to use the default settings, copy `.env.example` into `.env`. Your can then update it for your local runs.

5. Run automated test:

```
python qa_chain_test.py
```

6. Start the local server at `http://localhost:7860`:

```
python app.py
```
