​
Overview

The create_knowledge_base function creates a new AI knowledge base in the system.

​
Function Signature

pub async fn create_knowledge_base(
    request: CreateAiKnowledgeBaseRequest
) -> Result<AiKnowledgeBase>

​
Parameters

​
request
CreateAiKnowledgeBaseRequest
required
The knowledge base data for creation including:
  • name: Knowledge base name (required)
  • description: Knowledge base description (required)
  • embedding_model: Model to use for embeddings (optional)
  • chunk_size: Size of text chunks for processing (optional)
  • chunk_overlap: Overlap between chunks (optional)

​
Return Value

Returns Result<AiKnowledgeBase> containing the created knowledge base details.

​
Basic Usage

use wacht::api::knowledge_bases::*;

let new_kb = CreateAiKnowledgeBaseRequest {
    name: "Product Documentation".to_string(),
    description: "Knowledge base for product documentation and guides".to_string(),
    embedding_model: Some("text-embedding-ada-002".to_string()),
    chunk_size: Some(1000),
    chunk_overlap: Some(200),
};

let created_kb = create_knowledge_base(new_kb).await?;
println!("Created knowledge base: {} (ID: {})", created_kb.name, created_kb.id);

​
Error Handling

match create_knowledge_base(request).await {
    Ok(kb) => {
        println!("Successfully created knowledge base: {}", kb.name);
        println!("Knowledge base ID: {}", kb.id);
        println!("Embedding model: {}", kb.embedding_model);
    }
    Err(Error::Api { status, message, .. }) => {
        match status.as_u16() {
            400 => println!("Invalid request: {}", message),
            403 => println!("Access denied: {}", message),
            409 => println!("Knowledge base name already exists: {}", message),
            _ => println!("API error {}: {}", status, message),
        }
    }
    Err(e) => println!("Request failed: {}", e),
}
