`langchain.chains.graph_qa.base`.GraphQAChain¶

class langchain.chains.graph_qa.base.GraphQAChain[source]¶

Bases: Chain

Chain for question-answering against a graph.

Security note: Make sure that the database connection uses credentials

that are narrowly-scoped to only include necessary permissions. Failure to do so may result in data corruption or loss, since the calling code may attempt commands that would result in deletion, mutation of data if appropriately prompted or reading sensitive data if such data is present in the database. The best way to guard against such negative outcomes is to (as appropriate) limit the permissions granted to the credentials used with this tool.

See https://python.langchain.com/docs/security for more information.

Create a new model by parsing and validating input data from keyword arguments.

Raises ValidationError if the input data cannot be parsed to form a valid model.

param callback_manager: Optional[BaseCallbackManager] = None¶: [DEPRECATED] Use callbacks instead.

param callbacks: Callbacks = None¶: Optional list of callback handlers (or callback manager). Defaults to None. Callback handlers are called throughout the lifecycle of a call to a chain, starting with on_chain_start, ending with on_chain_end or on_chain_error. Each custom chain can optionally call additional callback methods, see Callback docs for full details.

param entity_extraction_chain: LLMChain [Required]¶

param graph: NetworkxEntityGraph [Required]¶

param memory: Optional[BaseMemory] = None¶: Optional memory object. Defaults to None. Memory is a class that gets called at the start and at the end of every chain. At the start, memory loads variables and passes them along in the chain. At the end, it saves any returned variables. There are many different types of memory - please see memory docs for the full catalog.

param metadata: Optional[Dict[str, Any]] = None¶: Optional metadata associated with the chain. Defaults to None. This metadata will be associated with each call to this chain, and passed as arguments to the handlers defined in callbacks. You can use these to eg identify a specific instance of a chain with its use case.

param qa_chain: LLMChain [Required]¶

param tags: Optional[List[str]] = None¶: Optional list of tags associated with the chain. Defaults to None. These tags will be associated with each call to this chain, and passed as arguments to the handlers defined in callbacks. You can use these to eg identify a specific instance of a chain with its use case.

param verbose: bool [Optional]¶: Whether or not run in verbose mode. In verbose mode, some intermediate logs will be printed to the console. Defaults to the global verbose value, accessible via langchain.globals.get_verbose().

__call__(inputs: Union[Dict[str, Any], Any], return_only_outputs: bool = False, callbacks: Optional[Union[List[BaseCallbackHandler], BaseCallbackManager]] = None, *, tags: Optional[List[str]] = None, metadata: Optional[Dict[str, Any]] = None, run_name: Optional[str] = None, include_run_info: bool = False) → Dict[str, Any]¶

[Deprecated] Execute the chain.

Parameters

inputs (Union[Dict[str, Any], Any]) – Dictionary of inputs, or single input if chain expects only one param. Should contain all inputs specified in Chain.input_keys except for inputs that will be set by the chain’s memory.
return_only_outputs (bool) – Whether to return only outputs in the response. If True, only new keys generated by this chain will be returned. If False, both input keys and new keys generated by this chain will be returned. Defaults to False.
callbacks (Optional[Union[List[BaseCallbackHandler], BaseCallbackManager]]) – Callbacks to use for this chain run. These will be called in addition to callbacks passed to the chain during construction, but only these runtime callbacks will propagate to calls to other objects.
tags (Optional[List[str]]) – List of string tags to pass to all callbacks. These will be passed in addition to tags passed to the chain during construction, but only these runtime tags will propagate to calls to other objects.
metadata (Optional[Dict[str, Any]]) – Optional metadata associated with the chain. Defaults to None

[Deprecated] Convenience method for executing chain.

The main difference between this method and Chain.__call__ is that this method expects inputs to be passed directly in as positional arguments or keyword arguments, whereas Chain.__call__ expects a single input dictionary with all the inputs

Parameters

*args (Any) – If the chain expects a single input, it can be passed in as the sole positional argument.
callbacks (Optional[Union[List[BaseCallbackHandler], BaseCallbackManager]]) – Callbacks to use for this chain run. These will be called in addition to callbacks passed to the chain during construction, but only these runtime callbacks will propagate to calls to other objects.
tags (Optional[List[str]]) – List of string tags to pass to all callbacks. These will be passed in addition to tags passed to the chain during construction, but only these runtime tags will propagate to calls to other objects.
**kwargs (Any) – If the chain expects multiple inputs, they can be passed in directly as keyword arguments.
metadata (Optional[Dict[str, Any]]) –
**kwargs –

Returns

The chain output.

Return type

Any

Example

# Suppose we have a single-input chain that takes a 'question' string:
await chain.arun("What's the temperature in Boise, Idaho?")
# -> "The temperature in Boise is..."

# Suppose we have a multi-input chain that takes a 'question' string
# and 'context' string:
question = "What's the temperature in Boise, Idaho?"
context = "Weather report for Boise, Idaho on 07/03/23..."
await chain.arun(question=question, context=context)
# -> "The temperature in Boise is..."

Notes

Deprecated since version 0.1.0: Use ainvoke instead.

AsyncIterator[Output]

astream_events(input: Any, config: Optional[RunnableConfig] = None, *, version: Literal['v1'], include_names: Optional[Sequence[str]] = None, include_types: Optional[Sequence[str]] = None, include_tags: Optional[Sequence[str]] = None, exclude_names: Optional[Sequence[str]] = None, exclude_types: Optional[Sequence[str]] = None, exclude_tags: Optional[Sequence[str]] = None, **kwargs: Any) → AsyncIterator[StreamEvent]¶

[Beta] Generate a stream of events.

Use to create an iterator over StreamEvents that provide real-time information about the progress of the runnable, including StreamEvents from intermediate results.

A StreamEvent is a dictionary with the following schema:

event: str - Event names are of the
format: on_[runnable_type]_(start|stream|end).
name: str - The name of the runnable that generated the event.
run_id: str - randomly generated ID associated with the given execution of
the runnable that emitted the event. A child runnable that gets invoked as part of the execution of a parent runnable is assigned its own unique ID.
tags: Optional[List[str]] - The tags of the runnable that generated
the event.
metadata: Optional[Dict[str, Any]] - The metadata of the runnable
that generated the event.
data: Dict[str, Any]

Below is a table that illustrates some evens that might be emitted by various chains. Metadata fields have been omitted from the table for brevity. Chain definitions have been included after the table.

event	name	chunk	input	output
on_chat_model_start	[model name]		{“messages”: [[SystemMessage, HumanMessage]]}
on_chat_model_stream	[model name]	AIMessageChunk(content=”hello”)
on_chat_model_end	[model name]		{“messages”: [[SystemMessage, HumanMessage]]}	{“generations”: […], “llm_output”: None, …}
on_llm_start	[model name]		{‘input’: ‘hello’}
on_llm_stream	[model name]	‘Hello’
on_llm_end	[model name]		‘Hello human!’
on_chain_start	format_docs
on_chain_stream	format_docs	“hello world!, goodbye world!”
on_chain_end	format_docs		[Document(…)]	“hello world!, goodbye world!”
on_tool_start	some_tool		{“x”: 1, “y”: “2”}
on_tool_stream	some_tool	{“x”: 1, “y”: “2”}
on_tool_end	some_tool			{“x”: 1, “y”: “2”}
on_retriever_start	[retriever name]		{“query”: “hello”}
on_retriever_chunk	[retriever name]	{documents: […]}
on_retriever_end	[retriever name]		{“query”: “hello”}	{documents: […]}
on_prompt_start	[template_name]		{“question”: “hello”}
on_prompt_end	[template_name]		{“question”: “hello”}	ChatPromptValue(messages: [SystemMessage, …])

Here are declarations associated with the events shown above:

format_docs:

def format_docs(docs: List[Document]) -> str:
    '''Format the docs.'''
    return ", ".join([doc.page_content for doc in docs])

format_docs = RunnableLambda(format_docs)

some_tool:

@tool
def some_tool(x: int, y: str) -> dict:
    '''Some_tool.'''
    return {"x": x, "y": y}

prompt:

template = ChatPromptTemplate.from_messages(
    [("system", "You are Cat Agent 007"), ("human", "{question}")]
).with_config({"run_name": "my_template", "tags": ["my_template"]})

from langchain_core.runnables import RunnableLambda

async def reverse(s: str) -> str:
    return s[::-1]

chain = RunnableLambda(func=reverse)

events = [
    event async for event in chain.astream_events("hello", version="v1")
]

# will produce the following events (run_id has been omitted for brevity):
[
    {
        "data": {"input": "hello"},
        "event": "on_chain_start",
        "metadata": {},
        "name": "reverse",

callbacks (Optional[Union[List[BaseCallbackHandler], BaseCallbackManager]]) – Callbacks to use for this chain run. These will be called in addition to callbacks passed to the chain during construction, but only these runtime callbacks will propagate to calls to other objects.
tags (Optional[List[str]]) – List of string tags to pass to all callbacks. These will be passed in addition to tags passed to the chain during construction, but only these runtime tags will propagate to calls to other objects.
**kwargs (Any) – If the chain expects multiple inputs, they can be passed in directly as keyword arguments.
metadata (Optional[Dict[str, Any]]) –
**kwargs –

Returns

The chain output.

Return type

Any

Example

# Suppose we have a single-input chain that takes a 'question' string:
chain.run("What's the temperature in Boise, Idaho?")
# -> "The temperature in Boise is..."

# Suppose we have a multi-input chain that takes a 'question' string
# and 'context' string:
question = "What's the temperature in Boise, Idaho?"
context = "Weather report for Boise, Idaho on 07/03/23..."
chain.run(question=question, context=context)
# -> "The temperature in Boise is..."

Notes

Deprecated since version 0.1.0: Use invoke instead.

save(file_path: Union[Path, str]) → None¶

Save the chain.

Expects Chain._chain_type property to be implemented and for memory to be: null.

Return type: SerializedNotImplemented

transform(input: Iterator[Input], config: Optional[RunnableConfig] = None, **kwargs: Optional[Any]) → Iterator[Output]¶

Default implementation of transform, which buffers input and then calls stream. Subclasses should override this method if they can start producing output while input is still being generated.

Parameters

input (Iterator[Input]) –
config (Optional[RunnableConfig]) –
kwargs (Optional[Any]) –

Return type

Iterator[Output]

classmethod update_forward_refs(**localns: Any) → None¶

Try to update ForwardRefs on fields based on this Model, globalns and localns.

Parameters: localns (Any) –
Return type: None

classmethod validate(value: Any) → Model¶

Parameters: value (Any) –
Return type: Model

with_config(config: Optional[RunnableConfig] = None, **kwargs: Any) → Runnable[Input, Output]¶

Bind config to a Runnable, returning a new Runnable.

Parameters

config (Optional[RunnableConfig]) –
kwargs (Any) –

Return type

Runnable[Input, Output]

with_fallbacks(fallbacks: Sequence[Runnable[Input, Output]], *, exceptions_to_handle: Tuple[Type[BaseException], ...] = (<class 'Exception'>,), exception_key: Optional[str] = None) → RunnableWithFallbacksT[Input, Output]¶

Add fallbacks to a runnable, returning a new Runnable.

Parameters

fallbacks (Sequence[Runnable[Input, Output]]) – A sequence of runnables to try if the original runnable fails.
exceptions_to_handle (Tuple[Type[BaseException], ...]) – A tuple of exception types to handle.
exception_key (Optional[str]) – If string is specified then handled exceptions will be passed to fallbacks as part of the input under the specified key. If None, exceptions will not be passed to fallbacks. If used, the base runnable and its fallbacks must accept a dictionary as input.

Returns

A new Runnable that will try the original runnable, and then each fallback in order, upon failures.

Return type

RunnableWithFallbacksT[Input, Output]

with_listeners(*, on_start: Optional[Listener] = None, on_end: Optional[Listener] = None, on_error: Optional[Listener] = None) → Runnable[Input, Output]¶

Bind lifecycle listeners to a Runnable, returning a new Runnable.

on_start: Called before the runnable starts running, with the Run object. on_end: Called after the runnable finishes running, with the Run object. on_error: Called if the runnable throws an error, with the Run object.

The Run object contains information about the run, including its id, type, input, output, error, start_time, end_time, and any tags or metadata added to the run.

Parameters

on_start (Optional[Listener]) –
on_end (Optional[Listener]) –
on_error (Optional[Listener]) –

Return type

Runnable[Input, Output]

with_retry(*, retry_if_exception_type: ~typing.Tuple[~typing.Type[BaseException], ...] = (<class 'Exception'>,), wait_exponential_jitter: bool = True, stop_after_attempt: int = 3) → Runnable[Input, Output]¶

Create a new Runnable that retries the original runnable on exceptions.

Parameters

retry_if_exception_type (Tuple[Type[BaseException], ...]) – A tuple of exception types to retry on
wait_exponential_jitter (bool) – Whether to add jitter to the wait time between retries
stop_after_attempt (int) – The maximum number of attempts to make before giving up

Returns

A new Runnable that retries the original runnable on exceptions.

Return type

Runnable[Input, Output]

with_types(*, input_type: Optional[Type[Input]] = None, output_type: Optional[Type[Output]] = None) → Runnable[Input, Output]¶
