sole positional argument.

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..."

# and 'context' string:

langchain.chains.conversational_retrieval.base.ConversationalRetrievalChain¶
class langchain.chains.conversational_retrieval.base.ConversationalRetrievalChain[source]¶
Bases: BaseConversationalRetrievalChain
Chain for having a conversation based on retrieved documents.
This chain takes in chat history (a list of messages) and new questions,
and then returns an answer to that question.
The algorithm for this chain consists of three parts:
1. Use the chat history and the new question to create a “standalone question”.
This is done so that this question can be passed into the retrieval step to fetch
relevant documents. If only the new question was passed in, then relevant context
may be lacking. If the whole conversation was passed into retrieval, there may
be unnecessary information there that would distract from retrieval.
2. This new question is passed to the retriever and relevant documents are
returned.
3. The retrieved documents are passed to an LLM along with either the new question
(default behavior) or the original question and chat history to generate a final
response.
Example
from langchain.chains import (
    StuffDocumentsChain, LLMChain, ConversationalRetrievalChain
)
from langchain_core.prompts import PromptTemplate
from langchain.llms import OpenAI
combine_docs_chain = StuffDocumentsChain(...)
vectorstore = ...
retriever = vectorstore.as_retriever()
# This controls how the standalone question is generated.
# Should take `chat_history` and `question` as input variables.
template = (
    "Combine the chat history and follow up question into "
    "a standalone question. Chat History: {chat_history}"
    "Follow up question: {question}"
)
prompt = PromptTemplate.from_template(template)
llm = OpenAI()


)
prompt = PromptTemplate.from_template(template)
llm = OpenAI()
question_generator_chain = LLMChain(llm=llm, prompt=prompt)
chain = ConversationalRetrievalChain(
    combine_docs_chain=combine_docs_chain,
    retriever=retriever,
    question_generator=question_generator_chain,

# 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:

# -> "The temperature in Boise is..."

Parameters
output_schema – Either a dictionary or pydantic.BaseModel class. If a dictionary
is passed in, it’s assumed to already be a valid JsonSchema.

the schema represents and descriptions for the parameters.

config – A config to use when invoking the runnable.
The config supports standard keys like ‘tags’, ‘metadata’ for tracing
purposes, ‘max_concurrency’ for controlling how much work to do
in parallel, and other keys. Please refer to the RunnableConfig
for more details.
Returns
The output of the runnable.
classmethod is_lc_serializable() → bool¶
Is this class serializable?


classmethod is_lc_serializable() → bool¶
Is this class serializable?
json(*, include: Optional[Union[AbstractSetIntStr, MappingIntStrAny]] = None, exclude: Optional[Union[AbstractSetIntStr, MappingIntStrAny]] = None, by_alias: bool = False, skip_defaults: Optional[bool] = None, exclude_unset: bool = False, exclude_defaults: bool = False, exclude_none: bool = False, encoder: Optional[Callable[[Any], Any]] = None, models_as_dict: bool = True, **dumps_kwargs: Any) → unicode¶
Generate a JSON representation of the model, include and exclude arguments as per dict().
encoder is an optional function to supply as default to json.dumps(), other arguments as per json.dumps().
classmethod lc_id() → List[str]¶
A unique identifier for this class for serialization purposes.
The unique identifier is a list of strings that describes the path
to the object.
map() → Runnable[List[Input], List[Output]]¶
Return a new Runnable that maps a list of inputs to a list of outputs,
by calling invoke() with each input.
classmethod parse_file(path: Union[str, Path], *, content_type: unicode = None, encoding: unicode = 'utf8', proto: Protocol = None, allow_pickle: bool = False) → Model¶
classmethod parse_obj(obj: Any) → Model¶
classmethod parse_raw(b: Union[str, bytes], *, content_type: unicode = None, encoding: unicode = 'utf8', proto: Protocol = None, allow_pickle: bool = False) → Model¶
prep_inputs(inputs: Union[Dict[str, Any], Any]) → Dict[str, str]¶
Validate and prepare chain inputs, including adding inputs from memory.
Parameters
inputs – Dictionary of raw inputs, or single input if chain expects


Parameters
inputs – Dictionary of raw 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.
Returns
A dictionary of all inputs, including those added by the chain’s memory.
prep_outputs(inputs: Dict[str, str], outputs: Dict[str, str], return_only_outputs: bool = False) → Dict[str, str]¶
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.
run(*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.


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..."
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")
classmethod schema(by_alias: bool = True, ref_template: unicode = '#/definitions/{model}') → DictStrAny¶
classmethod schema_json(*, by_alias: bool = True, ref_template: unicode = '#/definitions/{model}', **dumps_kwargs: Any) → unicode¶
stream(input: Input, config: Optional[RunnableConfig] = None, **kwargs: Optional[Any]) → Iterator[Output]¶
Default implementation of stream, which calls invoke.
Subclasses should override this method if they support streaming output.
to_json() → Union[SerializedConstructor, SerializedNotImplemented]¶
to_json_not_implemented() → SerializedNotImplemented¶
transform(input: Iterator[Input], config: Optional[RunnableConfig] = None, **kwargs: Optional[Any]) → Iterator[Output]¶
