# Create a project
project = catalyst.create_project(
project_name="Test-RAG-App-1",
usecase="Chatbot"
)
# Get project usecases

dataset_manager = Dataset(project_name="project_name")
# List existing datasets
datasets = dataset_manager.list_datasets()
print("Existing Datasets:", datasets)

dataset_manager.create_from_csv(
csv_path='path/to/your.csv',
dataset_name='MyDataset',
schema_mapping={'column1': 'schema_element1', 'column2': 'schema_element2'}
)
# Get project schema mapping
dataset_manager.get_schema_mapping()
For more detailed information on Dataset Management, including CSV schema handling and advanced usage, please refer to the Dataset Management documentation.
Evaluation
Create and manage metric evaluation of your RAG application:
from ragaai_catalyst import Evaluation
# Create an experiment
evaluation = Evaluation(
project_name="Test-RAG-App-1",
dataset_name="MyDataset",
)
# Get list of available metrics
evaluation.list_metrics()
# Add metrics to the experiment
schema_mapping={
'Query': 'prompt',
'response': 'response',
'Context': 'context',
'expectedResponse': 'expected_response'
}
# Add single metric
evaluation.add_metrics(
metrics=[
{"name": "Faithfulness", "config": {"model": "gpt-4o-mini", "provider": "openai", "threshold": {"gte": 0.232323}}, "column_name": "Faithfulness_v1", "schema_mapping": schema_mapping},
]
)
# Add multiple metrics
evaluation.add_metrics(
metrics=[
{"name": "Faithfulness", "config": {"model": "gpt-4o-mini", "provider": "openai", "threshold": {"gte": 0.323}}, "column_name": "Faithfulness_gte", "schema_mapping": schema_mapping},
{"name": "Hallucination", "config": {"model": "gpt-4o-mini", "provider": "openai", "threshold": {"lte": 0.323}}, "column_name": "Hallucination_lte", "schema_mapping": schema_mapping},

]
)
# Get the status of the experiment
status = evaluation.get_status()
print("Experiment Status:", status)
# Get the results of the experiment
results = evaluation.get_results()
print("Experiment Results:", results)
# Appending Metrics for New Data
# If you've added new rows to your dataset, you can calculate metrics just for the new data:
evaluation.append_metrics(display_name="Faithfulness_v1")
Trace Management
Record and analyze traces of your RAG application:
from ragaai_catalyst import RagaAICatalyst, Tracer
tracer = Tracer(
project_name="Test-RAG-App-1",
dataset_name="tracer_dataset_name",
tracer_type="tracer_type"
)
There are two ways to start a trace recording
1- with tracer():
with tracer():
# Your code here
2- tracer.start()
#start the trace recording
tracer.start()
# Your code here
# Stop the trace recording
tracer.stop()
# Get upload status
tracer.get_upload_status()
For more detailed information on Trace Management, please refer to the Trace Management documentation.
Agentic Tracing
The Agentic Tracing module provides comprehensive monitoring and analysis capabilities for AI agent systems. It helps track various aspects of agent behavior including:
- LLM interactions and token usage
- Tool utilization and execution patterns
- Network activities and API calls
- User interactions and feedback
- Agent decision-making processes
The module includes utilities for cost tracking, performance monitoring, and debugging agent behavior. This helps in understanding and optimizing AI agent performance while maintaining transparency in agent operations.
Tracer initialization
Initialize the tracer with project_name and dataset_name
from ragaai_catalyst import RagaAICatalyst, Tracer, trace_llm, trace_tool, trace_agent, current_span
agentic_tracing_dataset_name = "agentic_tracing_dataset_name"
tracer = Tracer(
project_name=agentic_tracing_project_name,
dataset_name=agentic_tracing_dataset_name,
tracer_type="Agentic",
)
# Enable auto-instrumentation
from ragaai_catalyst import init_tracing
init_tracing(catalyst=catalyst, tracer=tracer)
For more detailed information on Trace Management, please refer to the Agentic Tracing Management documentation.
Prompt Management
Manage and use prompts efficiently in your projects:
from ragaai_catalyst import PromptManager
# Initialize PromptManager
prompt_manager = PromptManager(project_name="Test-RAG-App-1")
# List available prompts
prompts = prompt_manager.list_prompts()
print("Available prompts:", prompts)
# Get default prompt by prompt_name
prompt_name = "your_prompt_name"
prompt = prompt_manager.get_prompt(prompt_name)
# Get specific version of prompt by prompt_name and version
prompt_name = "your_prompt_name"
version = "v1"
prompt = prompt_manager.get_prompt(prompt_name,version)
# Get variables in a prompt
variable = prompt.get_variables()
print("variable:",variable)
# Get prompt content
prompt_content = prompt.get_prompt_content()
print("prompt_content:", prompt_content)
# Compile the prompt with variables
compiled_prompt = prompt.compile(query="What's the weather?", context="sunny", llm_response="It's sunny today")
print("Compiled prompt:", compiled_prompt)
# implement compiled_prompt with openai
import openai
def get_openai_response(prompt):
client = openai.OpenAI()
response = client.chat.completions.create(
