Introduce opendataloader and PaddleOCR-VL parser engines with tenant-level
settings UI, replace liteparse, and harden Excel/PPT/Markdown parsing.
Optional odl-hybrid sidecar stays local-build only and is excluded from
default dev-start and full profiles.
Large scanned PDFs (hundreds of pages) were slow and fragile end-to-end.
This change addresses the parse, transport, and task-scheduling layers:
docreader (parse + transport):
- Parallelize per-page scanned rendering across processes (forkserver/fork),
with serial fallback. ~4-7x faster on large scanned PDFs; pdfium is not
thread-safe so we fan out across processes. Configurable via
DOCREADER_PDF_RENDER_PARALLELISM.
- Add server-streaming ReadStream RPC: emit one meta frame then one frame per
image, so documents with many page images are no longer capped by the unary
gRPC message-size limit (a 874-page PDF produced ~193MiB of images, far over
the 50MB cap) and memory is bounded on both ends. Unary Read is kept for
backward compatibility; the Go production reader switches to ReadStream.
VLM:
- Make the VLM HTTP timeout configurable (VLM_HTTP_TIMEOUT_SECONDS) and raise
the default 90s -> 180s so dense scanned-page OCR does not time out with
"context deadline exceeded".
Async task queues:
- Isolate high-volume, model-heavy fan-out tasks into dedicated asynq queues so
a single large document cannot saturate the shared worker pool and block
user-facing document parsing:
image:multimodal -> "multimodal"
chunk:extract -> "graph"
question:generation -> "question"
- Register the new queues in the server weight map and the cancel inspector's
scanned-queue set (so cancelling a knowledge still purges its pending tasks).
docreader fails to start on a fresh `uv sync` of main:
$ uv sync --frozen
$ uv run python -m docreader.main
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
File ".../docreader/proto/docreader_pb2_grpc.py", line 19, in <module>
raise RuntimeError(...)
RuntimeError: The grpc package installed is at version 1.76.0, but the
generated code in docreader_pb2_grpc.py depends on grpcio>=1.78.0.
Please upgrade your grpc module to grpcio>=1.78.0 or downgrade your
generated code using grpcio-tools<=1.76.0.
`docreader_pb2_grpc.py:8` was regenerated with grpcio-tools 1.78+ and
hardcodes `GRPC_GENERATED_VERSION = '1.78.0'`, then at import time runs
`first_version_is_lower(GRPC_VERSION, GRPC_GENERATED_VERSION)` and
raises if the installed runtime is older. But `pyproject.toml` still
pins:
"grpcio>=1.76.0",
"grpcio-health-checking>=1.76.0",
"grpcio-tools>=1.76.0",
…and `uv.lock` resolves to grpcio 1.76.0. So every fresh clone +
`uv sync` ends up with a docreader that crashes on import, and a
WeKnora backend that thinks docreader is "not connected" — silently
falling back to the Go-side static engine registry only.
Downstream user-visible symptom: `/api/v1/system/parser-engines`
returns just the Go-side engines. Python-only engines (e.g.
markitdown, plus any custom Python parsers) never appear in the KB
create/edit form. Document parsing falls back to mineru/builtin even
when the user intended to use docreader-backed engines.
Reproduce on main (before this commit):
cd docreader
uv sync --frozen
uv run python -m docreader.main
# → RuntimeError at import, server never starts
After this commit:
Resolved 79 packages
Updated grpcio v1.76.0 -> v1.80.0
Updated grpcio-health-checking v1.76.0 -> v1.80.0
Updated grpcio-tools v1.76.0 -> v1.80.0
...
$ uv run python -c "from docreader.proto import docreader_pb2_grpc; print('ok')"
ok
Fix is the minimum-floor bump on the three grpcio packages, plus the
lockfile update uv emits as a result (all 1.76.0 → 1.80.0, newest
stable matching the proto's floor). No proto regen, no code change —
just aligning the dep declaration with what the generated client
already requires.
The next regen of docreader_pb2_grpc.py (e.g. with grpcio-tools 1.80+)
would raise the floor again; pinning at the proto's declared floor is
the conservative choice that keeps this in sync.
- Updated `pydantic` from 2.12.3 to 2.13.4 and `pypdfium2` from 5.0.0 to 5.8.0 in the `docreader` requirements.
- Modified the dependabot configuration to set `open-pull-requests-limit` to 0 and added an `ignore` rule for version updates across all ecosystems, allowing only security updates.
- Adjusted settings for `server-security`, `client-security`, `frontend-security`, and `miniprogram-security` groups to streamline security update handling.
This change aims to enhance dependency management and maintain security while reducing noise from version update PRs.
- Bump base image in docker/Dockerfile.app from golang:1.24 to golang:1.26
to match `go 1.26` declared in go.mod (fixes CI build failure on
`go mod download`).
- Drop unused docreader components and their dependencies:
- Remove `docreader/ocr/` package (paddle/vlm/dummy backends are
unreferenced by the main flow; OCR/VLM is handled by the Go App).
- Remove `docreader/parser/storage.py` (dead code; image persistence
happens in the Go App via inline ImageRef bytes).
- Remove `docreader/scripts/download_deps.py` (PaddleOCR pre-download).
- Drop deps: paddleocr, paddlepaddle, openai, ollama, minio,
cos-python-sdk-v5, oss2, asyncio, pypdf2, markdown, mistletoe,
goose3, markdownify, pdfplumber, antiword, urllib3.
- Re-lock uv.lock: 145 -> 79 packages.
- Update docreader/README.md to reflect that OCR/VLM/storage are no
longer configured at the docreader level.
