# README for FastAPI-Based Report GPT Generation Service
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
This repository contains the implementation of a **FastAPI**-based service designed to generate research reports. The service processes user-provided queries and report types, performing advanced research powered by `GPTResearcher` and responding with comprehensive results, including details, cost, context, images, and other associated metadata.
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
|
|
- **RESTful API** to handle user queries and generate reports.
|
|
- **Streaming responses** to deliver research output in chunks.
|
|
- **Secure API access** with API Key authentication.
|
|
- Completely containerized setup with Docker.
|
|
- Built with modular design for easier scalability and maintenance.
|
|

## System Architecture
|
|
|
|
### Core Components
|
|
|
|
1. **FastAPI App (`main.py`)**:
|
|
- Hosts the API endpoints.
|
|
- Handles API Key authentication for secure use.
|
|
- Accepts user inputs (query and report type) and generates a chunked streaming response.
|
|
|
|
2. **Research Logic (`deepresearch.py`)**:
|
|
- Encapsulates research and report generation.
|
|
- Utilizes `GPTResearcher` to conduct research, generate reports, and retrieve extended data like images, contexts, or costs.
|
|
|
|
3. **Docker Integration**:
|
|
- The application is containerized with a well-defined `Dockerfile`.
|
|
- Includes dependency installation, environment setup, and FastAPI server configuration for rapid deployment.

## Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
Before running the application, ensure the following are installed on your system:
|
|
|
|
- **Docker**: Version 24.0+
|
|
- **Python**: Version 3.13+
|
|
- **pip**: Pre-installed Python package manager.
|

## Running the Application Locally
|
|
|
|
### Cloning the Repository
|
|
|
|
Clone the repository to a directory of your choice:
|
|
|
|
```shell script
|
|
git clone https://git.kvant.cloud/phoenix/gpt-researcher.git
|
|
cd gpt-researcher
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Environment Variable Configuration
|
|
|
|
Create a `.env` file in the root of the project and define:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
API_KEY=your_api_key # Replace "your_api_key" with your desired key
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Installing Dependencies
|
|
|
|
Install the required Python modules based on the generated `requirements.txt`.
|
|
|
|
```shell script
|
|
pip install --no-cache-dir -r requirements.txt
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Running the App
|
|
|
|
Run the FastAPI app locally:
|
|
|
|
```shell script
|
|
uvicorn main:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
After running, your app will be available at `http://127.0.0.1:8000`.

## Using Docker for Deployment
|
|
|
|
### Building the Docker Image
|
|
|
|
Build the Docker image using the **Dockerfile** provided:
|
|
|
|
```shell script
|
|
docker build -t fastapi-report-service .
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Running the Docker Container
|
|
|
|
Spin up a container and map FastAPI's default port, `8000`:
|
|
|
|
```shell script
|
|
docker run --env-file .env -p 8000:8000 fastapi-report-service
|
|
```
|

## API Usage
|
|
|
|
### 1. **`/get_report`**
|
|
|
|
- **Method**: `POST`
|
|
- **Description**: Generates a report based on user input.
|
|
- **Headers**:
|
|
- `X-API-KEY`: API Key for authentication.
|
|
- **Request Body** (`JSON`):
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"query": "Research on AI in healthcare",
|
|
"report_type": "research_report|resource_report|outline_report|custom_report|detailed_report|subtopic_report|deep"
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- **Streaming Response**: Research and report are provided in chunks.

## Features Under the Hood
|
|
|
|
1. **Authentication**:
|
|
- An API key mechanism ensures that only authorized users can access endpoints.
|
|
|
|
2. **Streaming Response**:
|
|
- Large research reports are sent incrementally using `StreamingResponse` for better experience and efficiency.
|
|
|
|
3. **Modular Research Logic**:
|
|
- Research and generation tasks are handled by a dedicated class (`ReportGenerator`), making the application extensible.
|

## Future Enhancements
|
|
|
|
- **Asynchronous Enhancements**:
|
|
- Improve async handling for long-running queries.
|
|
|
|
- **Database Integration**:
|
|
- Save request history for auditing and reference purposes.
|
|
|
|
- **Web Interface**:
|
|
- A user-friendly web application for interacting with the API.
