To add a
node_postprocessor
to a
RetrieverQueryEngine
in LlamaIndex, you can follow these steps:
- First, you need to define your
node_postprocessor
. This could be any of the built-in postprocessors like KeywordNodePostprocessor
, SimilarityPostprocessor
, PrevNextNodePostprocessor
, etc., or a custom one that you have created. Here's an example of defining a KeywordNodePostprocessor
:
node_postprocessors = [
KeywordNodePostprocessor(
required_keywords=["Combinator"], exclude_keywords=["Italy"]
)
]
Source ()
- Then, you can add this
node_postprocessor
to the RetrieverQueryEngine
using the from_args
method:
query_engine = RetrieverQueryEngine.from_args(
retriever, node_postprocessors=node_postprocessors
)
Source ()
- Now, you can use this
query_engine
to query your data:
response = query_engine.query("What did the author do growing up?")
Source ()
Remember, the
node_postprocessor
is applied within a query engine, after the node retrieval step and before the response synthesis step. It takes a set of nodes, and applies some kind of transformation or filtering before returning them. This can help reduce the time/number of LLM calls/cost or improve response quality.
