Summary

This PR introduces two focused improvements:

  1. Preserve automatic numbering of DOCX headings during parsing.
  2. Add missing Russian translations for Parser and Chunker settings.

DOCX automatic heading numbering

Microsoft Word stores automatically generated heading numbers separately from the paragraph text.

Because of this, a heading displayed in Word as:

2.1 Getting started

can currently be parsed by RAGFlow as:

Getting started

This loses information that is visible in the original document and makes it harder to work with structured technical documentation where section numbers are important.

The proposed solution reconstructs the visible heading number from DOCX numbering metadata and adds it back to the parsed heading text.

For example:

Before:

Getting started

After:

2.1 Getting started

A new DOCX Parser option is also added:

extract_automatic_numbering

It allows users to enable or disable automatic heading numbering extraction.

The option is enabled by default so that parsed DOCX headings preserve the numbering visible in Microsoft Word.

Related issue: #10145

Russian localization

The PR also adds and corrects Russian translations for settings used in the Parser and Chunker configuration interfaces.

This makes the ingestion pipeline settings easier to understand for Russian-speaking users, especially when configuring:

  • Parser settings;
  • Token Chunker;
  • Title Chunker;
  • heading hierarchy and grouping;
  • regular expression rules;
  • DOCX parsing options;
  • automatic numbering extraction.

These changes are limited to interface localization and the new DOCX numbering feature.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

DOCX parsing now resolves automatic heading numbering. It supports numbering overrides, inherited styles, multiple marker formats, disabled numbering, JSON sections, Markdown, outlines, parser configuration, and UI controls.

Changes

DOCX automatic numbering

Layer / File(s) Summary
Numbering resolution and Markdown application
deepdoc/parser/docx_numbering.py, deepdoc/parser/docx_parser.py, test/unit_test/deepdoc/parser/test_docx_numbering.py
Adds DOCX numbering resolution, heading-level detection, counter tracking, marker formatting, and Markdown heading replacement with tests for ATX and setext headings.
Go extraction and output transformation
internal/parser/parser/docx_numbering.go, internal/parser/parser/docx_numbering_test.go
Adds DOCX XML parsing, numbering resolution, section and Markdown transformations, outline enrichment, and tests for numbering formats, overrides, and disabled numbering.
Parser integration and configuration
internal/parser/parser/docx_parser.go, rag/app/naive.py, rag/flow/parser/*, rag/flow/parser/utils.py, internal/ingestion/component/*
Passes automatic-numbering settings through parser entry points and applies resolved headings to JSON, Markdown, sections, and outlines.
Parser form and localization
web/src/pages/agent/..., web/src/locales/en.ts, web/src/locales/ru.ts
Adds DOCX automatic-numbering defaults, form controls, schema support, and translation strings.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Mergeability Score: ⚪ Minimal · up to 1547d

The PR adds localized DOCX heading-number preservation and Russian configuration translations; no actionable merge-blocking risk remains beyond normal checks and review.

Poem

A rabbit counts each heading bright,
With Roman, letters, dots in flight.
DOCX paths now show numbers clear,
Through Markdown and outlines they appear.
“Enabled by default!” hops the rabbit.

Cache resolved styles across paragraphs.

resolveDOCXStyle runs for every paragraph and walks the whole basedOn chain, and it allocates a new seen map on each call. For documents with many paragraphs this repeats identical work. Cache the result per styleID in a map before the loop.

Add logging for the new numbering flow.

_parse_numbering discards the missing-numbering-part case silently, and the module emits no logs at all. The repository guideline requires logging for new Python flows. Add a debug or warning log when the numbering part is absent, and a debug log with the count of resolved definitions.

♻️ Proposed change
+import logging
 import re
     def _parse_numbering(self, document):
         try:
             root = document.part.numbering_part.element
-        except (AttributeError, KeyError):
+        except (AttributeError, KeyError) as e:
+            logging.debug(f"DOCX numbering part unavailable, automatic numbering skipped: {e}")
             return

In `@deepdoc/parser/docx_numbering.py`:
- Around line 228-233: Refine setext heading detection in the loop processing
lines so the candidate line is non-empty and is neither a list item nor a table
row before accepting the following equals-or-hyphens line as a heading
underline. Update the is_setext_heading condition while preserving normal ATX
heading detection and downstream text handling.
- Around line 64-72: Validate list levels before indexing the fixed counter
arrays: in deepdoc/parser/docx_numbering.py lines 64-72, update the resolver
around _resolve_level to return None for list_level outside 0..8; in
internal/parser/parser/docx_numbering.go lines 175-186, update the corresponding
resolver to skip the paragraph when ref.Level is outside 0..8. Preserve existing
handling for valid levels.

In `@internal/parser/parser/docx_numbering.go`:
- Around line 199-202: Update the numberedText prefix check in the DOCX
numbering path to consider the marker present only when numberedText equals
marker or starts with marker followed by a space, matching the Python resolver
behavior; otherwise prepend the resolved marker and preserve the heading text.
- Around line 226-234: Handle the error returned by r.Close() in the
file-reading loop before deciding whether to store content in parts, using the
existing error-handling style and ensuring errcheck passes.
- Around line 654-659: Align appendDOCXNumberedHeadingOutlines with the build
constraints of its caller so both are included or excluded together,
particularly when CGO_ENABLED=0; add or adjust the file’s build constraint
without changing the helper’s behavior.

In `@rag/app/naive.py`:
- Around line 561-563: Update the legacy DOCX parsing path in chunk to pass
parser_config.get("extract_automatic_numbering", True) when invoking Docx, so
the configured automatic-numbering behavior reaches Docx.__call__ instead of
always using its default.

In `@rag/flow/parser/utils.py`:
- Around line 78-91: Restrict outline extraction in extract_word_outlines to
paragraphs using the intended heading style, while still using
DOCXNumberingResolver for numbering and levels. Add the existing style-name
requirement as an additional filter before appending to outlines, so body or
caption styles with outlineLvl do not affect stored outlines or TOC matching.

Cover both invalid list-level bounds.

The test checks only 9. The resolver also rejects negative levels. Add -1 so the lower-bound guard is protected from regression.

Log the effective automatic-numbering setting.

This line adds a new configuration path, but it does not record whether automatic numbering is enabled for the DOCX parse. Store the effective value, log it at debug level, and pass the local value to Docx.
