v6.8.0 - coding models!

Breaking Changes

Within the Manage Databases tab, what's displayed is no longer derived from parsing multiple JSON files. Rather, sqlite3 is used for much much faster response/latency.

As such, databases created prior to this release will not function properly. To migrate old databases rather than creating them anew, use the create_sqlite3.py attached to this release as follows:

1. Run the script and select the folder containing the old JSON files. The script will folder location is as follows:

• Go into the Vector_DB folder.
• Each folder within Vector_DB constitute a database.
• Within each folder constituting a database there is a folder named json.
• You need to run the create_sqlite3.py script selecting each json folder for each of your database folders.
• A new file named metadata.db should be created in each database folder.
• It's now safe to remove the json folder altogether.

2. Update the backup folder.

• The Vector_DB_Backup folder contains a mirror image of the Vector_DB - this is the "backup" folder.
• Delete all the contents within the Vector_DB_Backup folder and copy all the contents of the Vector_DB folder into it.

3. Start the program and it should run as usual.

These steps are unnecessary if you're creating a vector database for first time using Release v6.8.0, obviously.

New Chat Models for Coding Questions

• Deepseek-Coder-V2 - 16b (best)
• Yi-Coder - 9b (second best)
• CodeQwen1.5 - 7b (third, but still good)

Benchmarks will be forthcoming, but their metrics are comparable to similarly-sized models.

Misc.

• Now using a distil-whisper model for the voice recorder for an approximate 2x speedup.
• Added buttons to backup all databases at once or restored all backups at once (Tools Tab).
