Services API

This package contains a set of services distributed as a part of BlueGraph.

BlueBrainEmbedder

Mini-service for retrieving embedding vectors and similarity computation. A detailed description of the API can be found here. An example can be found in the Embedding service API notebook.

Running the service

On its starting the service requires Nexus authentication, in order to fetch available models. Therefore, before launching the service, get your token from Nexus staging and export it to an environment variable as follows:

export NEXUS_TOKEN=<your_token>

Run from the source

Simply execute

flask run

Run using Docker

First, build the docker image:

docker build . -f service/embedder/Dockerfile

Then, run the container by passing your nexus token env variable using the --env parameter.

docker run --env NEXUS_TOKEN=$NEXUS_TOKEN -p 5000:5000 <image>
