NOTE: Before deploying, ensure you have space in the designated container registry. These steps assume images will be stored in us.icr.io. To determine this, go to https://cloud.ibm.com/containers/registry/images, choose Settings from lefthand menu, select the region from the drop-down menu, in this case choose Dallas. This will show you the remaining space. You may need to upgrade to the paid plan if planning to develop this application and save more than one image. See Container Registry Overview for more details.
To deploy using Terraform, see Deploy the RAG LLM Application to Code Engine using Terraform
To deploy manually, see Deploy the RAG LLM Application into Code Engine step by step
To get to Code Engine (now called Serverless Containers) open the menu on top left of IBM Cloud console, go to Containers->Serverless->Projects. Open the project running the RAG App.
To access the URL go into the Applications page within the Code Engine Project, and click the OpenURL link next to the newly deployed rag-app application
A quick sanity check with <url>/docs will take you to the swagger ui. To try the APIs from swagger, you will need to click the Authorize button at the top and add the value you set for RAG-APP-API-KEY in the environment variables
If your RAG-LLM API calls produce an error, take a look at the container logs. The easiest way to see the logs from the application containers running on Code Engine is to use the ibmcloud command line interface. You will need to install the IBM Cloud CLI along with the Code Engine plugin. See IBM Cloud CLI and Code Engine CLI :
ibmcloud login -sso
ibmcloud plugin install code-engine
ibmcloud target -g <resource group containing Code Engine project> -r <region of Code Engine project>
ibmcloud ce project list
ibmcloud ce project select -n <ce project name>
ibmcloud ce app list
ibmcloud ce application logs -f -n <ce app name>
