About 85 call sites read a setting as getattr(settings, "NAME", fallback),
each carrying its own copy of the default. Every one of those names is a
field with a default on the model, so the fallback could never apply to
the real settings object; it only masked drift. Two had drifted:
- OPENAI_PROMPT_CACHE_KEY defaults to True on the model but the reader
fell back to False, and two test stubs relied on that.
- SharePoint's MICROSOFT_AUTHORITY fallback to
https://login.microsoftonline.com/<tenant> never fired, because the
attribute always exists (as None), so MSAL got authority=None. The
connector now derives the tenant authority when the setting is unset,
as its test always assumed.
Four places read EMBEDDINGS_KEY straight from os.environ, skipping the
"None"/"" normalisation the model applies; they read the setting now.
Test stubs that replaced a module's settings with a SimpleNamespace list
every setting the code under test reads.
pip install docsgpt (extras: docling, milvus) installs the backend with a
docsgpt command: api, worker, migrate, prefetch-models, verify-offline,
reembed. Second step of the PyPI work after the package rename.
- hatchling build; the version comes from docsgpt/version.py. The wheel is
the docsgpt package with the data it reads at runtime (prompts, model
catalogs, seed config, alembic.ini and migrations) and without the
Dockerfile, the exported requirements, the sample index and local runtime
data. The application import alias stays checkout-only. uv sync installs
the package editable now that [tool.uv] package = false is gone.
- docsgpt/cli.py: api (gunicorn + BoundedDrainUvicornWorker with the image's
flags, --reload for uvicorn), worker (Celery worker with beat embedded,
--no-beat/-Q/--concurrency/--pool, solo pool on macOS), migrate, and
argument pass-through to the maintenance scripts. --help imports no app.
- docsgpt/core/paths.py: runtime data lives in a data home (DOCSGPT_HOME,
else the checkout, else cwd); DOCSGPT_ENV_FILE overrides the env file.
Settings, the dotenv load, LocalStorage and the internal upload route use
it instead of "three directories above this file", which is site-packages
for an installed package. A checkout and the Docker image behave as before.
- [project] dependencies are compatible ranges so the package installs next
to other packages; uv.lock resolves to the same versions and the exported
requirements files are unchanged.
- package-build.yml builds and checks the wheel on PRs and installs it into
a clean venv; pypi-publish.yml publishes on a published release through
trusted publishing (environment pypi), or to TestPyPI on a manual run.
- Docs: Deploying -> Install with pip. AGENTS.md notes the package.
The backend import package is now docsgpt, the name it will carry on PyPI;
application was far too generic to install into anyone's site-packages.
git mv plus a mechanical rewrite of every import, dotted string and path
reference: 734 Python files, the compose files, Dockerfile, workflows, docs,
setup scripts, devcontainer, k8s manifests, vscode config, pytest and coverage
config, .gitignore. Behaviour is unchanged.
Kept for one release:
- A top-level application package whose meta-path finder resolves
application.x.y to the already-imported docsgpt.x.y object, so old imports
and entry points (celery -A application.app.celery,
uvicorn application.asgi:asgi_app) keep working with a FutureWarning.
- Celery registers every application.* task name as an alias of its
docsgpt.* task on start-up, so messages queued by the previous release still
run. The redbeat key prefix moves to redbeat:docsgpt:v2: so schedule entries
the previous release wrote are left unread instead of firing twice.
The backend image builds from the repository root (docker build -f
docsgpt/Dockerfile .) so it can ship the alias package; a root .dockerignore
allow-lists docsgpt/ and application/ and keeps caches, local data, .env
files, the sample index files and the Dockerfile out. Compose and the image
workflows point at the new context.
