# OpenRAG TUI Guide
|
||||
|
||||
The OpenRAG Terminal User Interface (TUI) provides a streamlined way to set up, configure, and monitor your OpenRAG deployment directly from the terminal.
|
||||
The OpenRAG Terminal User Interface (TUI) provides a streamlined way to set up, configure, and monitor your OpenRAG deployment directly from the terminal, on any operating system.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Launch
|
||||
The TUI offers an easier way to use OpenRAG without sacrificing control.
|
||||
Instead of starting OpenRAG using Docker commands and manually editing values in the `.env` file, the TUI walks you through the setup. It prompts for variables where required, creates a `.env` file for you, and then starts OpenRAG.
|
||||
|
||||
Once OpenRAG is running, use the TUI to monitor your application, control your containers, and retrieve logs.
|
||||
|
||||
## Start the TUI
|
||||
|
||||
To start the TUI, run the following commands from the directory where you installed OpenRAG.
|
||||
For more information, see [Install OpenRAG](/install).
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
uv sync
|
||||
uv run openrag
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
### Service Monitor
|
||||
- Container status: real-time state of services
|
||||
- Resource usage: CPU, memory, network
|
||||
- Service control: start/stop/restart
|
||||
- Health checks: health indicators for all components
|
||||
|
||||
### Log Viewer
|
||||
- Live logs: stream logs across services
|
||||
- Filtering: by service (backend, frontend, Langflow, OpenSearch)
|
||||
- Levels: DEBUG/INFO/WARNING/ERROR
|
||||
- Export: save logs for later analysis
|
||||
|
||||
### Diagnostics
|
||||
- System checks: Docker/Podman availability and configuration
|
||||
- Environment validation: verify required variables
|
||||
- Network tests: connectivity between services
|
||||
- Performance metrics: system capacity and recommendations
|
||||
The TUI Welcome Screen offers basic and advanced setup options.
|
||||
For more information on setup values during installation, see [Install OpenRAG](/install).
|
||||
|
||||
## Navigation
|
||||
- Arrow keys: move between options

||||
- Tab/Shift+Tab: switch fields and buttons
|
||||
- Enter: select/confirm
|
||||
- Escape: back
|
||||
- Q: quit
|
||||
- Number keys (1-4): quick access to main screens
|
||||
|
||||
## Benefits
|
||||
1. Simplified setup without manual file edits
|
||||
2. Clear visual feedback and error messages
|
||||
3. Integrated monitoring and control
|
||||
4. Cross-platform: Linux, macOS, Windows
|
||||
5. Fully terminal-based; no browser required
|
||||
The TUI accepts mouse input or keyboard commands.
|
||||
|
||||
- <kbd>Arrow keys</kbd>: move between options
|
||||
- <kbd>Tab</kbd>/<kbd>Shift+Tab</kbd>: switch fields and buttons
|
||||
- <kbd>Enter</kbd>: select/confirm
|
||||
- <kbd>Escape</kbd>: back
|
||||
- <kbd>Q</kbd>: quit
|
||||
- <kbd>Number keys (1-4)</kbd>: quick access to main screens
|
||||
|
||||
## Container management
|
||||
|
||||
The TUI can deploy, manage, and upgrade your OpenRAG containers.
|
||||
|
||||
### Start container services
|
||||
|
||||
Click **Start Container Services** to start the OpenRAG containers.
|
||||
The TUI automatically detects your container runtime, and then checks if your machine has compatible GPU support by checking for `CUDA`, `NVIDIA_SMI`, and Docker/Podman runtime support. This check determines which Docker Compose file OpenRAG uses.
|
||||
The TUI then pulls the images and deploys the containers with the following command.
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
docker compose up -d
|
||||
```
|
||||
If images are missing, the TUI runs `docker compose pull`, then runs `docker compose up -d`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Start native services
|
||||
|
||||
A "native" service in OpenRAG refers to a service run natively on your machine, and not within a container.
|
||||
The `docling-serve` process is a native service in OpenRAG, because it's a document processing service that is run on your local machine, and controlled separately from the containers.
|
||||
|
||||
To start or stop `docling-serve` or any other native services, in the TUI main menu, click **Start Native Services** or **Stop Native Services**.
|
||||
|
||||
To view the status, port, or PID of a native service, in the TUI main menu, click [Status](#status).
|
||||
|
||||
### Status
|
||||
|
||||
The **Status** menu displays information on your container deployment.
|
||||
Here you can check container health, find your service ports, view logs, and upgrade your containers.
|
||||
|
||||
To view streaming logs, select the container you want to view, and press <kbd>l</kbd>.
|
||||
To copy your logs, click **Copy to Clipboard**.
|
||||
|
||||
To **upgrade** your containers, click **Upgrade**.
|
||||
**Upgrade** runs `docker compose pull` and then `docker compose up -d --force-recreate`.
|
||||
The first command pulls the latest images of OpenRAG.
|
||||
The second command recreates the containers with your data persisted.
|
||||
|
||||
To **reset** your containers, click **Reset**.
|
||||
Reset gives you a completely fresh start.
|
||||
Reset deletes all of your data, including OpenSearch data, uploaded documents, and authentication.
|
||||
**Reset** runs two commands.
|
||||
It first stops and removes all containers, volumes, and local images.
|
||||
```
|
||||
docker compose down --volumes --remove-orphans --rmi local
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
When the first command is complete, OpenRAG removes any additional Docker objects with `prune`.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
docker system prune -f
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Diagnostics
|
||||
|
||||
The **Diagnostics** menu provides health monitoring for your container runtimes and monitoring of your OpenSearch security.
