[docs]class PromptTemplate(StringPromptTemplate): """A prompt template for a language model. A prompt template consists of a string template. It accepts a set of parameters from the user that can be used to generate a prompt for a language model. The template can be formatted using either f-strings (default) or jinja2 syntax. *Security warning*: Prefer using `template_format="f-string"` instead of `template_format="jinja2"`, or make sure to NEVER accept jinja2 templates from untrusted sources as they may lead to arbitrary Python code execution. As of LangChain 0.0.329, Jinja2 templates will be rendered using Jinja2's SandboxedEnvironment by default. This sand-boxing should be treated as a best-effort approach rather than a guarantee of security, as it is an opt-out rather than opt-in approach. Despite the sand-boxing, we recommend to never use jinja2 templates from untrusted sources.
