BaseReader

The base class for all readers

AutoReader

Bases: BaseReader

General auto reader for a variety of files. (based on llama-hub)

LIReaderMixin

Bases: BaseComponent

Base wrapper around llama-index reader

To use the LIBaseReader, you need to implement the _get_wrapped_class method to return the relevant llama-index reader class that you want to wrap.

Example:

4
5

```python
class DirectoryReader(LIBaseReader):
    def _get_wrapped_class(self) -> Type["BaseReader"]:
        from llama_index import SimpleDirectoryReader

        return SimpleDirectoryReader
