+Put you files in the `SOURCE_DOCUMENTS` folder. You can put multiple folders within the `SOURCE_DOCUMENTS` folder and the code will recursively read your files.

+### Support file formats:
+LocalGPT currently supports the following file formats. LocalGPT uses `LangChain` for loading these file formats. The code in `constants.py` uses a `DOCUMENT_MAP` dictionary to map a file format to the corresponding loader. In order to add support for another file format, simply add this dictionary with the file format and the corresponding loader from [LangChain](https://python.langchain.com/docs/modules/data_connection/document_loaders/). 
+
+```shell
+DOCUMENT_MAP = {
+    ".txt": TextLoader,
+    ".md": TextLoader,
+    ".py": TextLoader,
+    ".pdf": PDFMinerLoader,
+    ".csv": CSVLoader,
+    ".xls": UnstructuredExcelLoader,
+    ".xlsx": UnstructuredExcelLoader,
+    ".docx": Docx2txtLoader,

+    ".xls": UnstructuredExcelLoader,
+    ".xlsx": UnstructuredExcelLoader,
+    ".docx": Docx2txtLoader,
+    ".doc": Docx2txtLoader,
+}
 
 Put any and all of your .txt, .pdf, or .csv files into the SOURCE_DOCUMENTS directory
 in the load_documents() function, replace the docs_path with the absolute path of your source_documents directory.
