qdrant v0.1.0

AI

Qdrant — an open-source vector database and similarity-search engine for embeddings, powering semantic search and RAG. Deployed as a host-networked Nomad service with a persistent volume; pairs with the ollama pack for a self-hosted AI stack.

nomad-pack run qdrant --registry nomploy
…or one line (add registry + run)
curl -fsSL https://packs.nomploy.com/install.sh | sh -s -- qdrant

Needs nomad-pack on PATH. The script only adds the nomploy registry and runs this pack.

Back up this pack

This pack stores data in one Docker named volume: qdrant_data

restic

# Run on the node hosting this pack. Point restic at your repo first:
#   export RESTIC_REPOSITORY="s3:https://<account>.r2.cloudflarestorage.com/<bucket>"
#   export RESTIC_PASSWORD="<repo-password>"
#   export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=<key>  AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=<secret>
restic backup \
  /var/lib/docker/volumes/qdrant_data/_data

rclone (sync to S3/R2)

rclone sync /var/lib/docker/volumes/qdrant_data/_data backup:<bucket>/qdrant_data

Paths assume the default Docker volume location (/var/lib/docker/volumes). Restore by stopping the job, restoring files into the same volume, and re-running the pack.
