langchain_community.chat_models.cohere.ChatCohere

class langchain_community.chat_models.cohere.ChatCohere

Bases: BaseChatModel, BaseCohere

Cohere chat large language models.

To use, you should have the cohere python package installed, and the environment variable COHERE_API_KEY set with your API key, or pass it as a named parameter to the constructor.

Example

from langchain_community.chat_models import ChatCohere
from langchain_core.messages import HumanMessage

chat = ChatCohere(model="foo")
result = chat([HumanMessage(content="Hello")])
print(result.content)

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.

Metadata to add to the run trace.

param model: Optional[str] = None

Model name to use.

param stop: Optional[List[str]] = None

param streaming: bool = False

Whether to stream the results.

__call__(messages: List[BaseMessage], stop: Optional[List[str]] = None, callbacks: Optional[Union[List[BaseCallbackHandler], BaseCallbackManager]] = None, **kwargs: Any) → BaseMessage

Call self as a function.

async abatch(inputs: List[Input], config: Optional[Union[RunnableConfig, List[RunnableConfig]]] = None, *, return_exceptions: bool = False, **kwargs: Optional[Any]) → List[Output]

Default implementation runs ainvoke in parallel using asyncio.gather.

The default implementation of batch works well for IO bound runnables.

Subclasses should override this method if they can batch more efficiently; e.g., if the underlying runnable uses an API which supports a batch mode.

async agenerate(messages: List[List[BaseMessage]], stop: Optional[List[str]] = None, callbacks: Optional[Union[List[BaseCallbackHandler], BaseCallbackManager]] = None, *, tags: Optional[List[str]] = None, metadata: Optional[Dict[str, Any]] = None, run_name: Optional[str] = None, **kwargs: Any) → LLMResult

Top Level call

async agenerate_prompt(prompts: List[PromptValue], stop: Optional[List[str]] = None, callbacks: Optional[Union[List[BaseCallbackHandler], BaseCallbackManager]] = None, **kwargs: Any) → LLMResult

Asynchronously pass a sequence of prompts and return model generations.

This method should make use of batched calls for models that expose a batched API.

Use this method when you want to:

1. take advantage of batched calls,

2. need more output from the model than just the top generated value,

3. are building chains that are agnostic to the underlying language model

   type (e.g., pure text completion models vs chat models).

Parameters

• prompts – List of PromptValues. A PromptValue is an object that can be converted to match the format of any language model (string for pure text generation models and BaseMessages for chat models).

• stop – Stop words to use when generating. Model output is cut off at the first occurrence of any of these substrings.

• callbacks – Callbacks to pass through. Used for executing additional functionality, such as logging or streaming, throughout generation.

• **kwargs – Arbitrary additional keyword arguments. These are usually passed to the model provider API call.

Returns

An LLMResult, which contains a list of candidate Generations for each input

prompt and additional model provider-specific output.

async ainvoke(input: LanguageModelInput, config: Optional[RunnableConfig] = None, *, stop: Optional[List[str]] = None, **kwargs: Any) → BaseMessage

Default implementation of ainvoke, calls invoke from a thread.

The default implementation allows usage of async code even if the runnable did not implement a native async version of invoke.

Subclasses should override this method if they can run asynchronously.

async apredict(text: str, *, stop: Optional[Sequence[str]] = None, **kwargs: Any) → str

Asynchronously pass a string to the model and return a string prediction.

Use this method when calling pure text generation models and only the top

candidate generation is needed.

Parameters

• text – String input to pass to the model.

• stop – Stop words to use when generating. Model output is cut off at the first occurrence of any of these substrings.

• **kwargs – Arbitrary additional keyword arguments. These are usually passed to the model provider API call.

Returns

Top model prediction as a string.

async apredict_messages(messages: List[BaseMessage], *, stop: Optional[Sequence[str]] = None, **kwargs: Any) → BaseMessage

Asynchronously pass messages to the model and return a message prediction.

Use this method when calling chat models and only the top

candidate generation is needed.

Parameters

• messages – A sequence of chat messages corresponding to a single model input.

• stop – Stop words to use when generating. Model output is cut off at the first occurrence of any of these substrings.

• **kwargs – Arbitrary additional keyword arguments. These are usually passed to the model provider API call.

Returns

Top model prediction as a message.

assign(**kwargs: Union[Runnable[Dict[str, Any], Any], Callable[[Dict[str, Any]], Any], Mapping[str, Union[Runnable[Dict[str, Any], Any], Callable[[Dict[str, Any]], Any]]]]) → RunnableSerializable[Any, Any]

Assigns new fields to the dict output of this runnable. Returns a new runnable.

async astream(input: LanguageModelInput, config: Optional[RunnableConfig] = None, *, stop: Optional[List[str]] = None, **kwargs: Any) → AsyncIterator[BaseMessageChunk]

Default implementation of astream, which calls ainvoke. Subclasses should override this method if they support streaming output.

async astream_log(input: Any, config: Optional[RunnableConfig] = None, *, diff: bool = True, with_streamed_output_list: bool = True, 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: Optional[Any]) → Union[AsyncIterator[RunLogPatch], AsyncIterator[RunLog]]

Stream all output from a runnable, as reported to the callback system. This includes all inner runs of LLMs, Retrievers, Tools, etc.

Output is streamed as Log objects, which include a list of jsonpatch ops that describe how the state of the run has changed in each step, and the final state of the run.

The jsonpatch ops can be applied in order to construct state.

Parameters

• input – The input to the runnable.

• config – The config to use for the runnable.

• diff – Whether to yield diffs between each step, or the current state.

• with_streamed_output_list – Whether to yield the streamed_output list.

• include_names – Only include logs with these names.

• include_types – Only include logs with these types.

• include_tags – Only include logs with these tags.

• exclude_names – Exclude logs with these names.

• exclude_types – Exclude logs with these types.

• exclude_tags – Exclude logs with these tags.

async atransform(input: AsyncIterator[Input], config: Optional[RunnableConfig] = None, **kwargs: Optional[Any]) → AsyncIterator[Output]

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

batch(inputs: List[Input], config: Optional[Union[RunnableConfig, List[RunnableConfig]]] = None, *, return_exceptions: bool = False, **kwargs: Optional[Any]) → List[Output]

Default implementation runs invoke in parallel using a thread pool executor.

The default implementation of batch works well for IO bound runnables.

Subclasses should override this method if they can batch more efficiently; e.g., if the underlying runnable uses an API which supports a batch mode.
