The GraphRAG project is designed to leverage large language models (LLMs) for extracting structured and meaningful data from unstructured texts; by integrating it with ipex-llm
, users can now easily utilize local LLMs running on Intel GPU (e.g., local PC with iGPU, discrete GPU such as Arc, Flex and Max).
- Install and Start
Ollama
Service on Intel GPU - Prepare LLM and Embedding Model
- Setup Python Environment for GraphRAG
- Index GraphRAG
- Query GraphRAG
- Query GraphRAG
- Troubleshooting
Follow the steps in Run Ollama with IPEX-LLM on Intel GPU Guide to install ipex-llm[cpp]==2.1.0
and run Ollama on Intel GPU. Ensure that ollama serve
is running correctly and can be accessed through a local URL (e.g., https://127.0.0.1:11434
).
Please note that for GraphRAG, we highly recommand using the stable version of ipex-llm through pip install ipex-llm[cpp]==2.1.0
.
In another terminal window, separate from where you executed ollama serve
, download the LLM and embedding model using the following commands:
-
For Linux users:
export no_proxy=localhost,127.0.0.1 # LLM ./ollama pull mistral # Embedding model ./ollama pull nomic-embed-text
-
For Windows users:
Please run the following command in Miniforge or Anaconda Prompt.
set no_proxy=localhost,127.0.0.1 :: LLM ollama pull mistral :: Embedding model ollama pull nomic-embed-text
Tip
Here we take mistral
and nomic-embed-text
as an example. You could have a try on other LLMs or embedding models in ollama.com
.
To run the LLM and embedding model on a local machine, we utilize the graphrag-local-ollama
repository:
git clone https://github.com/TheAiSingularity/graphrag-local-ollama.git
cd graphrag-local-ollama
conda create -n graphrag-local-ollama python=3.10
conda activate graphrag-local-ollama
pip install -e .
pip install future
pip install ollama
pip install plotly
in which pip install ollama
is for enabling restful APIs through python, and pip install plotly
is for visualizing the knowledge graph.
Note
Please note that the Python environment for GraphRAG setup here is separate from the one for Ollama server on Intel GPUs.
The environment is now ready for GraphRAG with local LLMs and embedding models running on Intel GPUs. Before querying GraphRAG, it is necessary to first index GraphRAG, which could be a resource-intensive operation.
Tip
Refer to here for more details in GraphRAG process explanation.
Some sample documents are used here as input corpus for indexing GraphRAG, based on which LLM will create a knowledge graph.
Perpare the input corpus, and then initialize the workspace:
-
For Linux users:
# define inputs corpus mkdir -p ./ragtest/input cp input/* ./ragtest/input export no_proxy=localhost,127.0.0.1 # initialize ragtest folder python -m graphrag.index --init --root ./ragtest # prepare settings.yml, please make sure the initialized settings.yml in ragtest folder is replaced by settings.yml in graphrag-ollama-local folder cp settings.yaml ./ragtest
-
For Windows users:
Please run the following command in Miniforge or Anaconda Prompt.
:: define inputs corpus mkdir ragtest && cd ragtest && mkdir input && cd .. xcopy input\* .\ragtest\input set no_proxy=localhost,127.0.0.1 :: initialize ragtest folder python -m graphrag.index --init --root .\ragtest :: prepare settings.yml, please make sure the initialized settings.yml in ragtest folder is replaced by settings.yml in graphrag-ollama-local folder copy settings.yaml .\ragtest /y
In the settings.yml
file inside the ragtest
folder, add the configuration request_timeout: 1800.0
for llm
. Besides, if you would like to use LLMs or embedding models other than mistral
or nomic-embed-text
, you are required to update the settings.yml
in ragtest
folder accordingly:
llm:
api_key: ${GRAPHRAG_API_KEY}
type: openai_chat
model: mistral # change it accordingly if using another LLM
model_supports_json: true
request_timeout: 1800.0 # add this configuration; you could also increase the request_timeout
api_base: http://localhost:11434/v1
embeddings:
async_mode: threaded
llm:
api_key: ${GRAPHRAG_API_KEY}
type: openai_embedding
model: nomic_embed_text # change it accordingly if using another embedding model
api_base: http://localhost:11434/api
Finally, conduct GraphRAG indexing, which may take a while:
python -m graphrag.index --root ragtest
You will got message 🚀 All workflows completed successfully.
after the GraphRAG indexing is successfully finished.
For a clearer view of the knowledge graph, you can visualize it by specifying the path to the .graphml
file in the visualize-graphml.py
script, like below:
-
For Linux users:
graph = nx.read_graphml('ragtest/output/20240715-151518/artifacts/summarized_graph.graphml')
-
For Windows users:
graph = nx.read_graphml('ragtest\\output\\20240715-151518\\artifacts\\summarized_graph.graphml')
and run the following command to interactively visualize the knowledge graph:
python visualize-graphml.py
After the GraphRAG has been successfully indexed, you could conduct query based on the knowledge graph through:
python -m graphrag.query --root ragtest --method global "What is Transformer?"
Note
Only the global
query method is supported for now.
The sample output looks like:

SUCCESS: Global Search Response: The Transformer is a type of neural network architecture primarily used for sequence-to-sequence tasks, such as machine translation and text summarization [Data: Reports (1, 2, 34, 46, 64, +more)]. It was introduced in the paper 'Attention is All You Need' by Vaswani et al. The Transformer model uses self-attention mechanisms to focus on relevant parts of the input sequence when generating an output.
The Transformer architecture was designed to overcome some limitations of Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs), such as the vanishing gradient problem and the need for long sequences to be processed sequentially [Data: Reports (1, 2)]. The Transformer model processes input sequences in parallel, making it more efficient for handling long sequences.
The Transformer model has been very successful in various natural language processing tasks, such as machine translation and text summarization [Data: Reports (1, 34, 46, 64, +more)]. It has also been applied to other domains, such as computer vision and speech recognition. The key components of the Transformer architecture include self-attention layers, position-wise feedforward networks, and multi-head attention mechanisms [Data: Reports (1, 2, 3)].
Since its initial introduction, the Transformer model has been further developed and improved upon. Variants of the Transformer architecture, such as BERT (Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers) and RoBERTa (Robustly Optimized BERT Pretraining Approach), have achieved state-of-the-art performance on a wide range of natural language processing tasks [Data: Reports (1, 2, 34, 46, 64, +more)].
failed to find free space in the KV cache, retrying with smaller n_batch
when conducting GraphRAG Indexing, and JSONDecodeError
when querying GraphRAG
If you observe the Ollama server log showing failed to find free space in the KV cache, retrying with smaller n_batch
while conducting GraphRAG indexing, and receive JSONDecodeError
when querying GraphRAG, try to increase context length for the LLM model and index/query GraphRAG again.
Here introduce how to make the LLM model support larger context. To do this, we need to first create a file named Modelfile
:
FROM mistral:latest
PARAMETER num_ctx 4096
Tip
Here we increase num_ctx
to 4096 as an example. You could adjust it accordingly.
and then use the following commands to create a new model in Ollama named mistral:latest-nctx4096
:
-
For Linux users:
./ollama create mistral:latest-nctx4096 -f Modelfile
-
For Windows users:
Please run the following command in Miniforge or Anaconda Prompt.
ollama create mistral:latest-nctx4096 -f Modelfile
Finally, update settings.yml
inside the ragtest
folder to use llm
model mistral:latest-nctx4096
:
llm:
api_key: ${GRAPHRAG_API_KEY}
type: openai_chat
model: mistral:latest-nctx4096 # change it accordingly if using another LLM, or LLM model with larger num_ctx
model_supports_json: true
request_timeout: 1800.0 # add this configuration; you could also increase the request_timeout
api_base: http://localhost:11434/v1
embeddings:
async_mode: threaded
llm:
api_key: ${GRAPHRAG_API_KEY}
type: openai_embedding
model: nomic_embed_text # change it accordingly if using another embedding model
api_base: http://localhost:11434/api
