* FIX: we were never reindexing old content
Embedding backfill contains logic for searching for old content
change and then backfilling.
Unfortunately it was excluding all topics that had embedding
unconditionally, leading to no backfill ever happening.
This change adds a test and ensures we backfill.
* over select results, this ensures we will be more likely to find
ai results when filtered
The idea is to increase the frequency so we can run with smaller batch sizes.
Big batches cause problems when running backups, so it's better to have shorter but
more frequent jobs.
1. on failure we were queuing a job to generate embeddings, it had the wrong params. This is both fixed and covered in a test.
2. backfill embedding in the order of bumped_at, so newest content is embedded first, cover with a test
3. add a safeguard for hidden site setting that only allows batches of 50k in an embedding job run
Previously old embeddings were updated in a random order, this changes it so we update in a consistent order
Previous to this change we relied on explicit loading for a files in Discourse AI.
This had a few downsides:
- Busywork whenever you add a file (an extra require relative)
- We were not keeping to conventions internally ... some places were OpenAI others are OpenAi
- Autoloader did not work which lead to lots of full application broken reloads when developing.
This moves all of DiscourseAI into a Zeitwerk compatible structure.
It also leaves some minimal amount of manual loading (automation - which is loading into an existing namespace that may or may not be there)
To avoid needing /lib/discourse_ai/... we mount a namespace thus we are able to keep /lib pointed at ::DiscourseAi
Various files were renamed to get around zeitwerk rules and minimize usage of custom inflections
Though we can get custom inflections to work it is not worth it, will require a Discourse core patch which means we create a hard dependency.
