Setup
Follow the instructions in the Qdrant Setup Guide to install Qdrant locally. Here is a guide to get API keys: Qdrant API Keys.Example
agent_with_knowledge.py
import os
import typer
from typing import Optional
from rich.prompt import Prompt
from agno.agent import Agent
from agno.knowledge.knowledge import Knowledge
from agno.vectordb.qdrant import Qdrant
api_key = os.getenv("QDRANT_API_KEY")
qdrant_url = os.getenv("QDRANT_URL")
collection_name = "thai-recipe-index"
vector_db = Qdrant(
collection=collection_name,
url=qdrant_url,
api_key=api_key,
)
knowledge_base = Knowledge(
vector_db=vector_db,
)
def qdrant_agent(user: str = "user"):
agent = Agent(
knowledge=knowledge_base,
debug_mode=True,
)
while True:
message = Prompt.ask(f"[bold] :sunglasses: {user} [/bold]")
if message in ("exit", "bye"):
break
agent.print_response(message)
if __name__ == "__main__":
knowledge_base.insert(
url="https://agno-public.s3.amazonaws.com/recipes/ThaiRecipes.pdf"
)
typer.run(qdrant_agent)
Async Support ⚡
Qdrant also supports asynchronous operations, enabling concurrency and leading to better performance.
async_qdrant_db.py
import asyncio
from agno.agent import Agent
from agno.knowledge.knowledge import Knowledge
from agno.vectordb.qdrant import Qdrant
COLLECTION_NAME = "thai-recipes"
# Initialize Qdrant with local instance
vector_db = Qdrant(
collection=COLLECTION_NAME,
url="http://localhost:6333"
)
# Create knowledge base
knowledge_base = Knowledge(
vector_db=vector_db,
)
agent = Agent(knowledge=knowledge_base)
if __name__ == "__main__":
# Load knowledge base asynchronously
asyncio.run(knowledge_base.ainsert(
url="https://agno-public.s3.amazonaws.com/recipes/ThaiRecipes.pdf"
)
)
# Create and use the agent asynchronously
asyncio.run(agent.aprint_response("How to make Tom Kha Gai", markdown=True))
Using
aload() and aprint_response() with asyncio provides non-blocking operations, making your application more responsive under load.Qdrant Params
