Construct Qdrant wrapper from a list of texts.

Parameters

texts – A list of texts to be indexed in Qdrant.
embedding – A subclass of Embeddings, responsible for text vectorization.

grpc_port – Port of the gRPC interface. Default: 6334
prefer_grpc – If true - use gPRC interface whenever possible in custom methods. Default: False
https – If true - use HTTPS(SSL) protocol. Default: None
api_key – API key for authentication in Qdrant Cloud. Default: None
prefix –
If not None - add prefix to the REST URL path. Example: service/v1 will result in

http://localhost:6333/service/v1/{qdrant-endpoint} for REST API.

Default: None
timeout – Timeout for REST and gRPC API requests. Default: 5.0 seconds for REST and unlimited for gRPC
host – Host name of Qdrant service. If url and host are None, set to ‘localhost’. Default: None
path – Path in which the vectors will be stored while using local mode. Default: None
collection_name – Name of the Qdrant collection to be used. If not provided, it will be created randomly. Default: None
distance_func – Distance function. One of: “Cosine” / “Euclid” / “Dot”. Default: “Cosine”
content_payload_key – A payload key used to store the content of the document. Default: “page_content”
metadata_payload_key – A payload key used to store the metadata of the document. Default: “metadata”

write_consistency_factor – Write consistency factor for collection. Default is 1, minimum is 1. Defines how many replicas should apply the operation for us to consider it successful. Increasing this number will make the collection more resilient to inconsistencies, but will also make it fail if not enough replicas are available. Does not have any performance impact. Have effect only in distributed mode.
on_disk_payload – If true - point`s payload will not be stored in memory. It will be read from the disk every time it is requested. This setting saves RAM by (slightly) increasing the response time. Note: those payload values that are involved in filtering and are indexed - remain in RAM.
hnsw_config – Params for HNSW index
optimizers_config – Params for optimizer
wal_config – Params for Write-Ahead-Log
quantization_config – Params for quantization, if None - quantization will be disabled
init_from – Use data stored in another collection to initialize this collection
force_recreate – Force recreating the collection
**kwargs – Additional arguments passed directly into REST client initialization

Construct Qdrant wrapper from a list of texts.

Parameters

texts – A list of texts to be indexed in Qdrant.
embedding – A subclass of Embeddings, responsible for text vectorization.
metadatas – An optional list of metadata. If provided it has to be of the same length as a list of texts.
ids – Optional list of ids to associate with the texts. Ids have to be uuid-like strings.
location – If :memory: - use in-memory Qdrant instance. If str - use it as a url parameter. If None - fallback to relying on host and port parameters.
url – either host or str of “Optional[scheme], host, Optional[port], Optional[prefix]”. Default: None
port – Port of the REST API interface. Default: 6333
grpc_port – Port of the gRPC interface. Default: 6334
prefer_grpc – If true - use gPRC interface whenever possible in custom methods. Default: False
https – If true - use HTTPS(SSL) protocol. Default: None
api_key – API key for authentication in Qdrant Cloud. Default: None
prefix –
If not None - add prefix to the REST URL path. Example: service/v1 will result in

http://localhost:6333/service/v1/{qdrant-endpoint} for REST API.

Default: None
timeout – Timeout for REST and gRPC API requests. Default: 5.0 seconds for REST and unlimited for gRPC
host – Host name of Qdrant service. If url and host are None, set to ‘localhost’. Default: None
path – Path in which the vectors will be stored while using local mode. Default: None
collection_name – Name of the Qdrant collection to be used. If not provided, it will be created randomly. Default: None
distance_func – Distance function. One of: “Cosine” / “Euclid” / “Dot”. Default: “Cosine”
content_payload_key – A payload key used to store the content of the document. Default: “page_content”
metadata_payload_key – A payload key used to store the metadata of the document. Default: “metadata”
vector_name – Name of the vector to be used internally in Qdrant. Default: None
batch_size – How many vectors upload per-request. Default: 64
shard_number – Number of shards in collection. Default is 1, minimum is 1.
replication_factor – Replication factor for collection. Default is 1, minimum is 1. Defines how many copies of each shard will be created. Have effect only in distributed mode.
write_consistency_factor – Write consistency factor for collection. Default is 1, minimum is 1. Defines how many replicas should apply the operation for us to consider it successful. Increasing this number will make the collection more resilient to inconsistencies, but will also make it fail if not enough replicas are available. Does not have any performance impact. Have effect only in distributed mode.
on_disk_payload – If true - point`s payload will not be stored in memory. It will be read from the disk every time it is requested. This setting saves RAM by (slightly) increasing the response time. Note: those payload values that are involved in filtering and are indexed - remain in RAM.
hnsw_config – Params for HNSW index
optimizers_config – Params for optimizer
wal_config – Params for Write-Ahead-Log
quantization_config – Params for quantization, if None - quantization will be disabled
init_from – Use data stored in another collection to initialize this collection
force_recreate – Force recreating the collection
**kwargs – Additional arguments passed directly into REST client initialization

This is a user-friendly interface that: 1. Creates embeddings, one for each text 2. Initializes the Qdrant database as an in-memory docstore by default

(and overridable to a remote docstore)

Adds the text embeddings to the Qdrant database

This is intended to be a quick way to get started.

Example

from langchain_community.vectorstores import Qdrant
from langchain_community.embeddings import OpenAIEmbeddings
embeddings = OpenAIEmbeddings()
qdrant = Qdrant.from_texts(texts, embeddings, "localhost")
