[Install issue]: How to initialize the tenant and database when using a kubernetes cluster?

[leobenkel]

What happened?

So I am using chromadb docker image:

ARG VECTOR_DB_ENGINE_VERSION
FROM chromadb/chroma:${VECTOR_DB_ENGINE_VERSION}

ENV IS_PERSISTENT=true
ENV PERSIST_DIRECTORY=/chroma/chroma
ENV ANONYMIZED_TELEMETRY=false
ENV CHROMA_SERVER_NOFILE=4096

ENV CHROMA_SERVER_AUTH_CREDENTIALS_PROVIDER="chromadb.auth.token.TokenConfigServerAuthCredentialsProvider"
ENV CHROMA_SERVER_AUTH_PROVIDER="chromadb.auth.token.TokenAuthServerProvider"
ENV CHROMA_CLIENT_AUTH_PROVIDER="chromadb.auth.token_authn.TokenAuthClientProvider"

ARG VECTOR_DB_HEADER_TOKEN_TRANSPORT
ENV CHROMA_SERVER_AUTH_TOKEN_TRANSPORT_HEADER=VECTOR_DB_HEADER_TOKEN_TRANSPORT
ENV CHROMA_AUTH_TOKEN_TRANSPORT_HEADER=VECTOR_DB_HEADER_TOKEN_TRANSPORT

ARG VECTOR_DB_HEADER_AUTH_CREDS
ENV CHROMA_SERVER_AUTH_CREDENTIALS=VECTOR_DB_HEADER_AUTH_CREDS
ENV CHROMA_CLIENT_AUTH_CREDENTIALS=VECTOR_DB_HEADER_AUTH_CREDS

EXPOSE 8000

COPY chroma_log_config.yml /chroma/chromadb/log_config.yml

and i am hitting it from the other image.

the connection is working but then i am getting:

ValueError: Could not connect to tenant <tenant>. Are you sure it exists?

When I did the same process for posgresql, I just had to add few ENV variable in the db dockerfile to match the back-end ones.
I have been searching for few hours and I dont see how to do the same thing for chromadb. How do i setup the tenant / database names to match between the two services ?

Thank you !

Also, does ANONYMIZED_TELEMETRY=false turn off telemetry ? or keep on just not anonymized ? I want telemetry completely off.
Also, it seems the auth token is not working as expected. i am able to hit chroma without token and get something back.
Also, it seems CHROMA_SERVER_NOFILE is not doing anything. I am still getting WARNING: [11-07-2024 10:57:13] chroma_server_nofile is set to 65535, but this is less than current soft limit of 1048576. chroma_server_nofile will not be set. in the log.

@leobenkel, can you look up the error stack to see the actual error that you're getting from Chroma?

• Your server-side token should be configured with chroma_server_authn_credentials env var (the docs are a bit messed up - https://docs.trychroma.com/deployment/auth and we need to fix that)
• CHROMA_SERVER_NOFILE has no effect due to a bug in the code; there's a PR to address this - [BUG] CHROMA_SERVER_NOFILE cannot be overriden with env var in container #2209

thank you for your response @tazarov !

here is the full log from the chroma docker:

@leobenkel, this is weird: GET /api/v1/tenants/<TENANT_NAME> HTTP/1.1 it seems you're sending a request with a placeholder tenant. If you haven't created such a tenant, then the error is expected.

No no. I just redacted the log to not leak out a customer's name :)

Indeed I did not create the tenant. Which is my original question in this post haha. I am asking how to initialize tenant and database. With the posgresql container I just had to set some environment variables. But I didn't find the equivalent for chromadb.

@tazarov ?

[allomov]

I had the same issue while going through coursera lab "Vector Databases: An Introduction with Chroma DB"

I resolved it using python

import chromadb
from chromadb.config import DEFAULT_TENANT, DEFAULT_DATABASE
admin_client = chromadb.AdminClient()
admin_client.create_tenant(DEFAULT_TENANT)
