🏷️ Labels: Books Orchestrator, Chunk Management, Pdf Processing, Python Automation, Metadata Handling, Debugging
📂 Project: Dev
⭐ Priority: MEDIUM

Session Goal

The primary goal of this session was to design and implement a Books Orchestrator for processing books into chunked text files with metadata, and to optimize chunk management before integrating with a vector store.

Key Activities

• Designed the Books Orchestrator to process books in various formats, converting them into chunked text files with metadata.
• Enhanced a PDF text extraction script for better debugging, logging, and metadata generation.
• Debugged and improved a script for PDF and text processing, focusing on logging and real-time feedback.
• Developed an automated directory watcher script using the watchdog library to monitor changes and rerun processing scripts.
• Troubleshot subprocess execution issues in the watcher script, improving error logging and reliability.
• Optimized chunk management system, validating chunk generation and metadata handling.
• Designed a modular chunk storage system for vector data, focusing on metadata schema and storage options.
• Enhanced chunking.py for document processing, ensuring compatibility with indexing methods.

Achievements

• Successfully designed and implemented a Books Orchestrator.
• Improved PDF processing scripts with better logging and debugging.
• Developed a reliable directory watcher for automated processing.
• Optimized chunk management and storage systems.

Pending Tasks

• Integrate the optimized chunk management system with the vector store.
• Further testing and validation of the Books Orchestrator and chunk management modules.
