langchain.chains.combine_documents.stuff.StuffDocumentsChain¶
class langchain.chains.combine_documents.stuff.StuffDocumentsChain[source]¶
Bases: BaseCombineDocumentsChain
Chain that combines documents by stuffing into context.
This chain takes a list of documents and first combines them into a single string.
It does this by formatting each document into a string with the document_prompt
and then joining them together with document_separator. It then adds that new
string to the inputs with the variable name set by document_variable_name.
Those inputs are then passed to the llm_chain.
Example
from langchain.chains import StuffDocumentsChain, LLMChain
from langchain.prompts import PromptTemplate
from langchain.llms import OpenAI
# This controls how each document will be formatted. Specifically,
# it will be passed to `format_document` - see that function for more
# details.
document_prompt = PromptTemplate(
    input_variables=["page_content"],
     template="{page_content}"
)
document_variable_name = "context"
llm = OpenAI()
# The prompt here should take as an input variable the
# `document_variable_name`
prompt = PromptTemplate.from_template(
    "Summarize this content: {context}"
)
llm_chain = LLMChain(llm=llm, prompt=prompt)
chain = StuffDocumentsChain(
    llm_chain=llm_chain,
    document_prompt=document_prompt,
    document_variable_name=document_variable_name

class langchain.chains.combine_documents.map_rerank.MapRerankDocumentsChain[source]¶
Bases: BaseCombineDocumentsChain
Combining documents by mapping a chain over them, then reranking results.
This algorithm calls an LLMChain on each input document. The LLMChain is expected
to have an OutputParser that parses the result into both an answer (answer_key)
and a score (rank_key). The answer with the highest score is then returned.
Example:from langchain.chains import StuffDocumentsChain, LLMChain
from langchain.prompts import PromptTemplate
from langchain.llms import OpenAI
from langchain.output_parsers.regex import RegexParser
document_variable_name = "context"
llm = OpenAI()
# The prompt here should take as an input variable the
# `document_variable_name`
# The actual prompt will need to be a lot more complex, this is just
# an example.
prompt_template = (
    "Use the following context to tell me the chemical formula "
    "for water. Output both your answer and a score of how confident "
    "you are. Context: {content}"
)
output_parser = RegexParser(
    regex=r"(.*?)
Score: (.*)”,
output_keys=[“answer”, “score”],
)
prompt = PromptTemplate(
template=prompt_template,
input_variables=[“context”],
output_parser=output_parser,
)
llm_chain = LLMChain(llm=llm, prompt=prompt)
chain = MapRerankDocumentsChain(
llm_chain=llm_chain,
document_variable_name=document_variable_name,
rank_key=”score”,
answer_key=”answer”,
)

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,

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


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


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..."
async astream(input: Input, config: Optional[RunnableConfig] = None) → AsyncIterator[Output]¶
batch(inputs: List[Input], config: Optional[Union[RunnableConfig, List[RunnableConfig]]] = None, *, max_concurrency: Optional[int] = None) → List[Output]¶
bind(**kwargs: Any) → Runnable[Input, Output]¶
Bind arguments to a Runnable, returning a new Runnable.
combine_docs(docs: List[Document], token_max: Optional[int] = None, callbacks: Optional[Union[List[BaseCallbackHandler], BaseCallbackManager]] = None, **kwargs: Any) → Tuple[str, dict][source]¶
Combine multiple documents recursively.
Parameters
docs – List of documents to combine, assumed that each one is less than
token_max.
token_max – Recursively creates groups of documents less than this number
of tokens.
callbacks – Callbacks to be passed through
**kwargs – additional parameters to be passed to LLM calls (like other
input variables besides the documents)
Returns
The first element returned is the single string output. The second
element returned is a dictionary of other keys to return.
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


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 benull.
Parameters
**kwargs – Keyword arguments passed to default pydantic.BaseModel.dict
method.
Returns
A dictionary representation of the chain.
Example
..code-block:: python
chain.dict(exclude_unset=True)
# -> {“_type”: “foo”, “verbose”: False, …}
classmethod from_orm(obj: Any) → Model¶
invoke(input: Dict[str, Any], config: Optional[RunnableConfig] = None) → Dict[str, Any]¶


Validate and prepare chain outputs, and save info about this run to memory.
Parameters
inputs – Dictionary of chain inputs, including any inputs added by chain
memory.
outputs – Dictionary of initial chain outputs.
return_only_outputs – Whether to only return the chain outputs. If False,
inputs are also added to the final outputs.
Returns
A dict of the final chain outputs.
prompt_length(docs: List[Document], **kwargs: Any) → Optional[int]¶
Return the prompt length given the documents passed in.
This can be used by a caller to determine whether passing in a list
of documents would exceed a certain prompt length. This useful when
trying to ensure that the size of a prompt remains below a certain
context limit.
Parameters
docs – List[Document], a list of documents to use to calculate the
total prompt length.
Returns
Returns None if the method does not depend on the prompt length,
otherwise the length of the prompt in tokens.

save(file_path: Union[Path, str]) → None¶
Save the chain.
Expects Chain._chain_type property to be implemented and for memory to benull.
Parameters
file_path – Path to file to save the chain to.
Example
chain.save(file_path="path/chain.yaml")
