This directory contains everything needed to run a zero-config local demo of Beever Atlas, pre-seeded with a Wikipedia corpus about Ada Lovelace, Charles Babbage, and the history of the Python programming language.
git clone https://github.com/beever-ai/beever-atlas.git
cd beever-atlas
make demo # auto-creates .env from .env.example (demo defaults, no API keys to seed)The seed loader starts automatically after all services are healthy, loads the pre-computed fixtures, and exits. Seeding takes under 30 seconds.
| Requirement | Details |
|---|---|
| Disk space | ~4 GB (Docker images + data store volumes) |
| RAM | ~4 GB |
| First-run image pull | ~3–5 minutes |
| Docker + Docker Compose | Install Docker Desktop |
GOOGLE_API_KEY |
Required for /api/ask (Q&A queries). Not needed for seeding. Get a free key at aistudio.google.com — no credit card required. |
Seeding (
make demo) is zero-API-key and completes in <30 seconds. Asking questions via/api/askrequiresGOOGLE_API_KEYin.envbecause the QA agent uses Google Gemini at query time.
Once the stack is running and seeded, use GOOGLE_API_KEY in .env, then:
Who was Ada Lovelace?
curl -N -X POST http://localhost:8000/api/channels/demo-wikipedia/ask \
-H "Authorization: Bearer dev-key-change-me" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"question":"Who was Ada Lovelace?"}'What year was Python first released?
curl -N -X POST http://localhost:8000/api/channels/demo-wikipedia/ask \
-H "Authorization: Bearer dev-key-change-me" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"question":"What year was Python first released?"}'The endpoint streams Server-Sent Events (SSE):
thinking → tool_call_start → tool_call_end → response_delta (answer text) →
citations → done.
Open http://localhost:3000, select the #demo channel, and go to its Wiki tab —
the auto-generated overview, topic pages, FAQ, and resources are pre-built into the
fixtures, so they render immediately with no API key required (reading the wiki is
free; only regenerating it needs a GOOGLE_API_KEY, via the tab's "Generate" button).

The corpus is designed to produce a rich entity graph (Ada Lovelace → collaborated with → Charles Babbage → built → Analytical Engine; Guido van Rossum → created → Python) and to demonstrate grounded Q&A with citations.
The demo/fixtures/ files are pre-computed outputs of the full ADK ingestion pipeline run
against the corpus. They contain Weaviate embeddings, Neo4j graph statements, and MongoDB
documents — allowing make demo to seed everything without any API calls.
To regenerate fixtures after changing the corpus or models:
# Requires GOOGLE_API_KEY and JINA_API_KEY in .env
make demo-regenerate-fixturesThis runs demo/seed.py --live --write-fixtures and overwrites the files in demo/fixtures/.
Commit the resulting files to make changes available to other users.
See demo/fixtures/README.md for the fixture file format specification.
