### Adicional

Si estás ejecutando tanto Flowise como Chroma en Docker, hay pasos adicionales involucrados.

1. Inicia primero el docker de Chroma

```bash
docker compose up -d --build
```

2. Abre `docker-compose.yml` en Flowise

```bash
cd Flowise && cd docker
```

3. Modifica el archivo a:

```sh
version: '3.1'

services:
    flowise:
        image: flowiseai/flowise
        restart: always
        environment:
            - PORT=${PORT}
            - DEBUG=${DEBUG}
            - DATABASE_PATH=${DATABASE_PATH}
            - SECRETKEY_PATH=${SECRETKEY_PATH}
            - FLOWISE_SECRETKEY_OVERWRITE=${FLOWISE_SECRETKEY_OVERWRITE}
            - LOG_PATH=${LOG_PATH}
            - LOG_LEVEL=${LOG_LEVEL}
            - EXECUTION_MODE=${EXECUTION_MODE}
        ports:
            - '${PORT}:${PORT}'
        volumes:
            - ~/.flowise:/root/.flowise
        networks:
            - flowise_net
        command: /bin/sh -c "sleep 3; flowise start"
networks:
    flowise_net:
        name: chroma_net
        external: true
```

4. Inicia la imagen docker de Flowise

```bash
docker compose up -d
```

5. En la URL de Chroma, para sistemas operativos Windows y MacOS especifica [http://host.docker.internal:8000](http://host.docker.internal:8000/). Para sistemas basados en Linux, se debe usar el gateway por defecto de docker ya que host.docker.internal no está disponible: [http://172.17.0.1:8000](http://172.17.0.1:8000/)

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.flowiseai.com/espanol/documentacion-oficial/integraciones/langchain/vector-stores/chroma.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
