MongoDB Vector Search with OpenAI API

Note: Atlas Cluster v7.0 is required for creating Vector Index programmatically. For versions below that,vector indexes can be created directly from the Atlas console.

Project setup

1. Clone the repo
2. Create a .env file in the root directory of the project.

touch .env

3. Create two variables in your .env file: MONGODB_URI and OPENAI_API_KEY.

echo "MONGODB_URI=your_mongodb_uri" >> .env
echo "OPENAI_API_KEY=your_openai_api_key" >> .env

4. Install node modules.

npm install      # (or) yarn install

5. Run yarn run dev or npm run dev to start the server.

npm run dev    # (or) yarn run dev

If the MONGODB_URI is correct, it should connect without any error and start the server at port 5000. For the OpenAI API key, you need to create a new account.
