Exclude certain citations from being referenced....

[jefteete]

The ability to exclude certain citations from being referenced. Code below (/frontend/src/components/Answer/AnswerParser.tsx) filters out any citation that has "EXCLUDE_ME" in the filename.

export function parseAnswer(answer: AskResponse): ParsedAnswer {
let answerText = answer.answer;
const citationLinks = answerText.match(/[(doc\d\d?\d?)]/g);

const lengthDocN = "[doc".length;

let filteredCitations = [] as Citation[];
let citationReindex = 0;
citationLinks?.forEach(link => {
    // Extracting the citation index and the corresponding citation
    let citationIndex = link.slice(lengthDocN, link.length - 1);
    let citation = cloneDeep(answer.citations[Number(citationIndex) - 1]) as Citation;
    
    // If the citation's filename contains the unwanted code, skip this iteration.
    if (citation.filepath?.includes("EXCLUDE_ME")) {
        // Replace its reference in the answerText with an empty string
        answerText = answerText.replace(link, "");
        return; // Skip further processing for this citation
    }

    // Check if citation is already included, if not, process it
    if (!filteredCitations.find((c) => c.id === citationIndex) && citation) {
        answerText = answerText.replaceAll(link, ` ^${++citationReindex}^ `);
        citation.id = citationIndex; // original doc index to de-dupe
        citation.reindex_id = citationReindex.toString(); // reindex from 1 for display
        filteredCitations.push(citation);
    }
});
