UnPlug Backend

Welcome to the UnPlug backend repository! ⚡️

Technology at Work

Fueling the UnPlug backend are some of the industry's finest tools:

FastAPI: Acting as the backbone of our system, FastAPI empowers us to swiftly develop RESTful API endpoints, effortlessly handling user requests and serving responses.
Poetry: With Poetry, dependency management becomes a breeze, ensuring our project remains organized and reproducible across environments.
Pandas and NumPy: These stalwarts of data manipulation and analysis lend their expertise, enabling us to dissect and understand electricity consumption patterns with ease.
ML Models: UnPlug integrates state-of-the-art machine learning models for Optical Character Recognition (OCR) and predictive analysis. These models, including Doctr for OCR and 'stabilityai/stablelm-zephyr-3b' from StabilityAI for predictive analysis, work tirelessly behind the scenes to extract insights from electricity bills and provide valuable tips for optimization.

Getting started with the UnPlug backend is a simple affair:

Clone the Repository: Begin by cloning the repository to your local environment.
Install Dependencies: Utilize Poetry to install project dependencies poetry install --no-root, ensuring a smooth setup process.
Fire Up the Server: With everything in place, run the FastAPI development server poetry run python localhost.py, or run poetry run python serve.py for a production environment and witness the power of UnPlug come to life.

API Endpoints: Explore the extensive API documentation or Swagger UI to discover the myriad of endpoints at your disposal, each designed to provide valuable insights into electricity consumption.
Integration: Seamlessly integrate the backend with the frontend to unlock the full potential of UnPlug, empowering users to upload bills, visualize consumption data, and receive actionable optimization tips.
