Changelog Entry

Description

Added support for Perplexity Sonar citations/sources to be displayed in a chat window with links instead of raw numbers like [1], [2] and so on.

Added

Supports "citations" key returned from LLM via API.
Emitting sources once full message (in case of stream after collecting all chunks) is received.

Changed

Updated index.ts to properly handle the source numbers, previously it assumed that sources starts from 0. In Perplexity Sonar sources start from 1 so updated the handling of both.
Added "suppress_sources" for tasks like, generating title, emoji etc. to do not emit sources in such case.

Additional Information

Updated Perplexity Sonar Pipe is here: https://openwebui.com/f/yazon/perplexity_sonar_api_with_citations
