DOC: onboarding documentation is pretty sparse
Issue with current documentation:
I'm super happy this package exists, thanks for all the work. I've faced several issues adopting this package, which I think mostly boil down to documentation. A short list:
- The current documentation is in Jupyter notebooks, but there is no indication on how to run these
- This implementation tells you to not use document_ids and file_ids/folder_ids because it's deprecated. It doesn't explain why this is, and it doesn't explain the line of thinking behind the templates setup properly. Coming from the langchain-google package, I just have a list of google doc ids, some of them being files, others being folders.
- The ways in which you can authenticate aren't complete, for instance I didn't see anywhere that I can pass a working credentials object to the
GoogleDriveLoader()
call, which was super important to me - This package uses poetry and make, but that's not really documented anywhere it seems, so I had to figure this out by trying some stuff
- this package seems to use detector2 for some things, but there's no pypi package for this. There's no indication of what's needed to run/install detector2, nor what it is used for and/or what I am missing out on by not having it?
Idea or request for content:
I think it would make sense to write a bit about the things this package does better than it's langchain-google counterpart, how it does them and how you can start using them.
