`langchain.chains.qa_with_sources.retrieval`.RetrievalQAWithSourcesChain¶

class langchain.chains.qa_with_sources.retrieval.RetrievalQAWithSourcesChain[source]¶

Bases: BaseQAWithSourcesChain

Question-answering with sources over an index.

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 combine_documents_chain: BaseCombineDocumentsChain [Required]¶: Chain to use to combine documents.

param max_tokens_limit: int = 3375¶: Restrict the docs to return from store based on tokens, enforced only for StuffDocumentChain and if reduce_k_below_max_tokens is to true

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 reduce_k_below_max_tokens: bool = False¶: Reduce the number of results to return from store based on tokens limit

param retriever: BaseRetriever [Required]¶: Index to connect to.

param return_source_documents: bool = False¶: Return the source documents.

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]¶

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 acall(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]¶

Notes

Deprecated since version 0.1.0: Use ainvoke instead.

async ainvoke(input: Dict[str, Any], config: Optional[RunnableConfig] = None, **kwargs: Any) → Dict[str, Any]¶

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.

apply(input_list: List[Dict[str, Any]], callbacks: Optional[Union[List[BaseCallbackHandler], BaseCallbackManager]] = None) → List[Dict[str, str]]¶

[Deprecated] Call the chain on all inputs in the list.[Deprecated] Call the chain on all inputs in the list.

async arun(*args: Any, callbacks: Optional[Union[List[BaseCallbackHandler], BaseCallbackManager]] = None, tags: Optional[List[str]] = None, metadata: Optional[Dict[str, Any]] = None, **kwargs: Any) → Any¶

[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 – If the chain expects a single input, it can be passed in as the sole positional argument.
callbacks – 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 – 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 – If the chain expects multiple inputs, they can be passed in directly as keyword arguments.

Returns

The chain output.

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..."[*Deprecated*] Convenience method for executing chain.

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: Input, config: Optional[RunnableConfig] = None, **kwargs: Optional[Any]) → AsyncIterator[Output]¶: Default implementation of astream, which calls ainvoke. Subclasses should override this method if they support streaming 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 ove 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.

Notes

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: 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.

bind(**kwargs: Any) → Runnable[Input, Output]¶: Bind arguments to a Runnable, returning a new Runnable.

config_schema(*, include: Optional[Sequence[str]] = None) → Type[BaseModel]¶

The type of config this runnable accepts specified as a pydantic model.

To mark a field as configurable, see the configurable_fields and configurable_alternatives methods.

Parameters: include – A list of fields to include in the config schema.
Returns: A pydantic model that can be used to validate config.

configurable_alternatives(which: ConfigurableField, *, default_key: str = 'default', prefix_keys: bool = False, **kwargs: Union[Runnable[Input, Output], Callable[[], Runnable[Input, Output]]]) → RunnableSerializable[Input, Output]¶

configurable_fields(**kwargs: Union[ConfigurableField, ConfigurableFieldSingleOption, ConfigurableFieldMultiOption]) → RunnableSerializable[Input, Output]¶

classmethod construct(_fields_set: Optional[SetStr] = None, **values: Any) → Model¶: Creates a new model setting __dict__ and __fields_set__ from trusted or pre-validated data. Default values are respected, but no other validation is performed. Behaves as if Config.extra = ‘allow’ was set since it adds all passed values

copy(*, include: Optional[Union[AbstractSetIntStr, MappingIntStrAny]] = None, exclude: Optional[Union[AbstractSetIntStr, MappingIntStrAny]] = None, update: Optional[DictStrAny] = None, deep: bool = False) → Model¶

Duplicate a model, optionally choose which fields to include, exclude and change.

Parameters

include – fields to include in new model
exclude – fields to exclude from new model, as with values this takes precedence over include
update – values to change/add in the new model. Note: the data is not validated before creating the new model: you should trust this data
deep – set to True to make a deep copy of the model

Returns

new model instance

dict(**kwargs: Any) → Dict¶

Dictionary representation of chain.

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

Parameters: **kwargs – Keyword arguments passed to default pydantic.BaseModel.dict method.
Returns: A dictionary representation of the chain.

Example

chain.dict(exclude_unset=True)
# -> {"_type": "foo", "verbose": False, ...}

classmethod from_chain_type(llm: BaseLanguageModel, chain_type: str = 'stuff', chain_type_kwargs: Optional[dict] = None, **kwargs: Any) → BaseQAWithSourcesChain¶: Load chain from chain type.

classmethod from_llm(llm: BaseLanguageModel, document_prompt: BasePromptTemplate = PromptTemplate(input_variables=['page_content', 'source'], template='Content: {page_content}\nSource: {source}'), question_prompt: BasePromptTemplate = PromptTemplate(input_variables=['context', 'question'], template='Use the following portion of a long document to see if any of the text is relevant to answer the question. \nReturn any relevant text verbatim.\n{context}\nQuestion: {question}\nRelevant text, if any:'), combine_prompt: BasePromptTemplate = PromptTemplate(input_variables=['question', 'summaries'], template='Given the following extracted parts of a long document and a question, create a final answer with references ("SOURCES"). \nIf you don\'t know the answer, just say that you don\'t know.

run(*args: Any, callbacks: Optional[Union[List[BaseCallbackHandler], BaseCallbackManager]] = None, tags: Optional[List[str]] = None, metadata: Optional[Dict[str, Any]] = None, **kwargs: Any) → Any¶

[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 – If the chain expects a single input, it can be passed in as the sole positional argument.
callbacks – 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 – 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 – If the chain expects multiple inputs, they can be passed in directly as keyword arguments.

Returns

The chain output.

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..."[*Deprecated*] Convenience method for executing chain.

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.
