Error message

module {__name__!r} has no attribute {name!r}

What it means

RAGNode lazily imports qdrant_client at execution time and re-raises ImportError with this message when the package is absent. Qdrant is an optional dependency used to store and search document embeddings, so it is not installed with the core library.

Note: ChromiumLoader and PlasmateLoader are lazy-imported to avoid triggering
torchcodec/FFmpeg DLL loading at import time (sentence_transformers -> torchcodec chain).

Solutions

1. Install the client: pip install qdrant-client (or uv add qdrant-client).
2. Add qdrant-client to your project's dependency list so environments are reproducible.
3. If you never need RAG, remove RAGNode from the graph instead of installing the package.

Example fix

# before: RAGSearchGraph run fails with ImportError

# after (shell)
# pip install qdrant-client

try:
    import qdrant_client  # noqa: F401
except ImportError:
    raise SystemExit("Install optional dependency: pip install qdrant-client")

null

try:
    result = rag_graph.run()
except ImportError as e:
    if "qdrant_client" in str(e):
        subprocess.check_call([sys.executable, "-m", "pip", "install", "qdrant-client"])  # or surface a clear message

When it happens

Trigger: Building any graph that includes RAGNode (e.g. RAGSearchGraph) in an environment where qdrant-client is not installed; a fresh venv or Docker image that only installed scrapegraphai's base extras.

Common situations: CI pipelines or slim Docker images missing optional dependencies; adding RAG features to an existing project without updating requirements; dependency pruning tools removing 'unused' optional packages.
