Using the Demonstration Configuration

The microservice includes a demonstration configuration store that is prepopulated with three demo configurations.

If the DEMO environment variable is set to True, the configuration store directory is initialized with three demo configurations:

• default: This is an empty guardrail configuration, useful for testing the connectivity to the LLM.

• self-check: This is a demo guardrail configuration using a simple self-check input rail. For more details, check out the Self Check Input section from the NeMo Guardrails toolkit documentation.

• abc: The ABC Bot configuration from NeMo Guardrails toolkit answers questions about the ABC company employee handbook.

The microservice adds a separate directory for each configuration to the locally accessible directory for the configuration store. For the demo configurations, the layout is as follows:

/config-store
├── abc
│   ├── rails
│   │   └── disallowed.co
│   ├── kb
│   │   └── employee-handbook.md
│   ├── prompts.yml
│   └── config.yml
├── default
│   └── config.yml
└── self-check
    └── config.yml

The ID of each configuration is the name of the folder. For example, for the demo configurations, the corresponding configuration IDs are: abc, default and self-check.
