# Anaconda Environment Setup Guide

## Quick Start

### 1. Create Conda Environment

```bash
# Create environment from environment.yml
conda env create -f environment.yml

# OR create manually
conda create -n research-ai-assistant python=3.10
conda activate research-ai-assistant
```

### 2. Activate Environment

```bash
# Windows
conda activate research-ai-assistant

# Linux/Mac
source activate research-ai-assistant
# OR
conda activate research-ai-assistant
```

### 3. Install Dependencies

```bash
# Install from requirements.txt
pip install -r requirements.txt

# OR install openai package directly
pip install openai>=1.0.0
```

### 4. Set Environment Variables

```bash
# Windows (PowerShell)
$env:NOVITA_API_KEY="your_api_key_here"
$env:NOVITA_BASE_URL="https://api.novita.ai/dedicated/v1/openai"
$env:NOVITA_MODEL="deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-7B:de-1a706eeafbf3ebc2"

# Windows (CMD)
set NOVITA_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
set NOVITA_BASE_URL=https://api.novita.ai/dedicated/v1/openai
set NOVITA_MODEL=deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-7B:de-1a706eeafbf3ebc2

# Linux/Mac
export NOVITA_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
export NOVITA_BASE_URL=https://api.novita.ai/dedicated/v1/openai
export NOVITA_MODEL=deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-7B:de-1a706eeafbf3ebc2
```

### 5. Test Connection

```bash
# Run the test script
python test_novita_connection.py

# OR use the batch script (Windows)
test_novita_conda.bat
```

## Using Anaconda Prompt (Windows)

1. **Open Anaconda Prompt** (search for "Anaconda Prompt" in Start menu)

2. **Navigate to project directory:**
   ```bash
   cd C:\Users\85jat\GenAI_work_V2\Prototyping\Research_AI_Assistant_V2\Research_AI_Assistant_API
   ```

3. **Create/activate environment:**
   ```bash
   conda env create -f environment.yml
   conda activate research-ai-assistant
   ```

4. **Install dependencies:**
   ```bash
   pip install -r requirements.txt
   ```

5. **Set environment variables:**
   ```bash
   set NOVITA_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
   set NOVITA_BASE_URL=https://api.novita.ai/dedicated/v1/openai
   set NOVITA_MODEL=deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-7B:de-1a706eeafbf3ebc2
   ```

6. **Run test:**
   ```bash
   python test_novita_connection.py
   ```

## Environment Management

### List environments
```bash
conda env list
```

### Activate environment
```bash
conda activate research-ai-assistant
```

### Deactivate environment
```bash
conda deactivate
```

### Remove environment (if needed)
```bash
conda env remove -n research-ai-assistant
```

### Update environment
```bash
conda env update -f environment.yml --prune
```

## Verification

After setup, verify everything works:

```bash
# Activate environment
conda activate research-ai-assistant

# Check Python
python --version

# Check openai package
python -c "import openai; print(openai.__version__)"

# Check configuration
python -c "from src.config import get_settings; s = get_settings(); print(f'API Key: {s.novita_api_key[:10]}...' if s.novita_api_key else 'API Key: NOT SET')"

# Run full test
python test_novita_connection.py
```

## Troubleshooting

### Conda command not found
- **Windows:** Open Anaconda Prompt instead of regular PowerShell/CMD
- **Linux/Mac:** Ensure conda is initialized: `conda init bash` or `conda init zsh`

### Environment activation fails
- Try: `conda activate base` first, then `conda activate research-ai-assistant`
- On Windows: Use Anaconda Prompt instead of regular terminal

### Package installation fails
- Update conda: `conda update conda`
- Update pip: `pip install --upgrade pip`
- Try installing from conda-forge: `conda install -c conda-forge openai`

### Import errors
- Ensure environment is activated: `conda activate research-ai-assistant`
- Verify package is installed: `pip list | grep openai`
- Reinstall if needed: `pip install --force-reinstall openai>=1.0.0`
