What this category of data looks like
Precious metals research report data comes from special reports issued by broker research institutes, precious metals sector research reports from third-party financial data service providers, and industry monitoring documents publicly released by exchanges. Update frequencies include three types: daily post-market briefings, weekly industry reports, and monthly in-depth analysis reports. Document structures cover fields such as variety prices (e.g., AU9999, AG9999), units (yuan/gram, USD/ounce), supply and demand data, policy interpretations, and institutional ratings. Single document lengths vary widely. Calculation or testing with local samples is recommended before finalizing settings.
Constraints imposed on deployment and upgrade workflows
The multiple update frequencies, varied field units, and differing document lengths of precious metals research reports create clear constraints for deployment and upgrade. Short, high-frequency update documents require incremental sync tasks to avoid full reloading that consumes excess resources. Fields with special units such as yuan/gram and USD/ounce need unified unit mapping before retrieval to prevent chaotic results. Parsing and segmentation parameters for long documents must be adjusted to ensure complete context information and meet retrieval accuracy standards. Multi-source document format differences require adaptation of multi-type file parsing rules to avoid failed parsing of some research reports.
How to set configurations
| Configuration Item | Recommended Value | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
PARSE_FILE_TIMEOUT_SECONDS | 600 seconds | Longer in-depth research reports take extended time to parse, preventing timeout interruptions of the parsing process |
UPLOAD_FILE_MAX_SIZE | 1000 MB | Supports upload requirements for 30-page in-depth research reports |
maxContext | 800–1200 characters | Adapts to the segmentation length of precious metals research reports, balancing context completeness and retrieval accuracy |
| Number of retrieved results | Top 8 entries | Covers research report content across different varieties and cycles, avoiding omission of critical data |
| Similarity threshold | 0.75–0.85 | Filters irrelevant research reports unrelated to precious metals, ensuring matching degree of retrieval results |
| Incremental sync interval | 4 hours | Adapts to the daily post-market update rhythm of research reports, balancing real-time performance and resource usage |
The parameter values provided on this page are common starting points for configuration. Actual values are affected by material form, data volume and business rules. Specific issues require individual analysis, and testing with local samples is recommended before finalizing settings.
Three common mistakes
- Symptom: Docker starts with a
database connection refusederror, and the interface cannot complete login. Cause: Database environment variables are not configured correctly, database service is not started normally, or database files are not persisted by mounting data volumes as required. - Symptom: Password changes to
ROOT_PASSWORDdo not take effect after restarting the container. Cause: Thedocker-compose up -d --force-recreatecommand was not run to rebuild the container after directly editing the docker-compose.yml file. Restarting the container alone cannot update environment variables. - Symptom: An
out of memoryerror occurs during local Windows deployment, and the deployment process exits unexpectedly. Cause: Insufficient memory resources allocated to WSL2, WSL configuration file not adjusted to remove memory limits, leading to insufficient memory when loading large research reports.
How to confirm configuration is successful
- Run
docker logs fastgptto view startup logs, and confirm there are no database connection or port occupation errors. - Upload a test precious metals research report, wait for parsing to complete, enter test keywords in the retrieval interface, and check if document types and fields of returned results match preset configurations.
- After modifying a configuration parameter, run the corresponding restart or container rebuild command, and confirm the configuration item is visible and effective in the system settings interface.
- Trigger an incremental sync task, and check if the task log only syncs new research reports within the specified time period, with no repeated loading of historical data.
