​
1. Obtain API Key

  1. Open the SiliconFlow official website and register an account (if you already have one, simply log in).
  2. After completing the registration, go to API Key, create a new API Key, and copy the key for later use.

​
2. Deploy MindSearch

  1. Clone MindSearch to your local environment and install the necessary dependencies (refer to https://github.com/InternLM/MindSearch/blob/main/README.md).
  2. Modify the following file: /path/to/MindSearch/mindsearch/models.py
  3. Add the configuration for calling the SiliconFlow API. The configuration is as follows: 
internlm_silicon = dict(type=GPTAPI,
                        model_type='internlm/internlm2_5-7b-chat',
                        key=os.environ.get('SILICON_API_KEY', 'YOUR SILICON API KEY'),
                        openai_api_base='https://api.siliconflow.com/v1/chat/completions',
                        meta_template=[
                            dict(role='system', api_role='system'),
                            dict(role='user', api_role='user'),
                            dict(role='assistant', api_role='assistant'),
                            dict(role='environment', api_role='system')
                        ],
                        top_p=0.8,
                        top_k=1,
                        temperature=0,
                        max_new_tokens=8192,
                        repetition_penalty=1.02,
                        stop_words=['<|im_end|>'])
After adding this configuration, you can execute the relevant commands to start MindSearch.
  1. Start the backend:
# Specify the SiliconFlow API Key
export SILICON_API_KEY=The key copied in the previous steps
# Start
python -m mindsearch.app --lang en --model_format internlm_silicon --search_engine DuckDuckGoSearch
  1. Start the frontend. Here, the Gradio frontend is used as an example. For other frontend setups, refer to the MindSearch README: python frontend/mindsearch_gradio.py

​
3. Upload to HuggingFace Space

We can also choose to deploy it to HuggingFace Space.
  1. Go to https://huggingface.co/new-space and create a new Space. Configure it as follows:
  • Gradio
  • Template: Blank
  • Hardware: CPU basic · 2 vCPU · 16GB · FREE
  1. After successfully creating the Space, go to “Settings” and set the API Key.
  2. Upload the MindSearch directory from step 2, requirements.txt, and an app.py file.
For the detailed content of app.py, refer to: https://huggingface.co/spaces/SmartFlowAI/MindSearch_X_SiliconFlow/blob/main/app.py
