# Qdrant

> Batch process all your records using `unstructured-ingest` to store structured outputs and embeddings locally on your filesystem and upload those to a Qdrant collection.

First you’ll need to install the Qdrant dependencies as shown here.

```
pip install "unstructured[qdrant]"

```

Create a Qdrant collection with the appropriate configurations. Find more information in the [Qdrant collections guide](https://qdrant.tech/documentation/concepts/collections/).

## Run Locally

The upstream connector can be any of the ones supported, but for convenience here, showing a sample command using the upstream local connector.

<CodeGroup>
  ```bash Shell
  #!/usr/bin/env bash

  EMBEDDING_PROVIDER=${EMBEDDING_PROVIDER:-"langchain-huggingface"}

  unstructured-ingest \
    local \
    --input-path example-docs/book-war-and-peace-1225p.txt \
    --output-dir local-output-to-qdrant \
    --strategy fast \
    --chunk-elements \
    --embedding-provider "$EMBEDDING_PROVIDER" \
    --num-processes 2 \
    --verbose \
    qdrant \
    --collection-name "$QDRANT_COLLECTION_NAME" \
    --location "http://localhost:6333" \
    --batch-size 80
  ```

  ```python Python
  from unstructured.ingest.connector.local import SimpleLocalConfig
  from unstructured.ingest.connector.qdrant import (
      QdrantWriteConfig,
      SimpleQdrantConfig,

          ),
          write_config=QdrantWriteConfig(batch_size=80),
      )


  if __name__ == "__main__":
      writer = get_writer()
      runner = LocalRunner(
          processor_config=ProcessorConfig(
              verbose=True,
              output_dir="local-output-to-qdrant",

          partition_config=PartitionConfig(),
          chunking_config=ChunkingConfig(chunk_elements=True),
          embedding_config=EmbeddingConfig(provider="langchain-huggingface"),
          writer=writer,
          writer_kwargs={},
      )
      runner.run()
  ```

NOTE: Keep in mind that you will need to have all the appropriate extras and dependencies for the file types of the documents contained in your data storage platform if you’re running this locally. You can find more information about this in the [installation guide](/open-source/installation/overview).
