langchain.chains.graph_qa.base.GraphQAChain¶
class langchain.chains.graph_qa.base.GraphQAChain[source]¶
Bases: Chain
Chain for question-answering against a graph.
Security note: Make sure that the database connection uses credentialsthat are narrowly-scoped to only include necessary permissions.
Failure to do so may result in data corruption or loss, since the calling
code may attempt commands that would result in deletion, mutation
of data if appropriately prompted or reading sensitive data if such
data is present in the database.
The best way to guard against such negative outcomes is to (as appropriate)
limit the permissions granted to the credentials used with this tool.
See https://python.langchain.com/docs/security for more information.

for full details.
param entity_extraction_chain: LLMChain [Required]¶
param graph: NetworkxEntityGraph [Required]¶
param memory: Optional[BaseMemory] = None¶

[Legacy] Create an LLM chain that uses Ernie functions.
Parameters
functions – A sequence of either dictionaries, pydantic.BaseModels classes, or
Python functions. If dictionaries are passed in, they are assumed to
already be a valid Ernie functions. If only a single
function is passed in, then it will be enforced that the model use that
function. pydantic.BaseModels and Python functions should have docstrings
describing what the function does. For best results, pydantic.BaseModels
should have descriptions of the parameters and Python functions should have
Google Python style args descriptions in the docstring. Additionally,
Python functions should only use primitive types (str, int, float, bool) or
pydantic.BaseModels for arguments.
llm – Language model to use, assumed to support the Ernie function-calling API.
prompt – BasePromptTemplate to pass to the model.
output_key – The key to use when returning the output in LLMChain.__call__.
output_parser – BaseLLMOutputParser to use for parsing model outputs. By default
will be inferred from the function types. If pydantic.BaseModels are passed
in, then the OutputParser will try to parse outputs using those. Otherwise
model outputs will simply be parsed as JSON. If multiple functions are
passed in and they are not pydantic.BaseModels, the chain output will


passed in and they are not pydantic.BaseModels, the chain output will
include both the name of the function that was returned and the arguments
to pass to the function.
Returns
An LLMChain that will pass in the given functions to the model when run.

langchain.chains.graph_qa.hugegraph.HugeGraphQAChain¶
class langchain.chains.graph_qa.hugegraph.HugeGraphQAChain[source]¶
Bases: Chain
Chain for question-answering against a graph by generating gremlin statements.
Security note: Make sure that the database connection uses credentialsthat are narrowly-scoped to only include necessary permissions.
Failure to do so may result in data corruption or loss, since the calling
code may attempt commands that would result in deletion, mutation
of data if appropriately prompted or reading sensitive data if such
data is present in the database.
The best way to guard against such negative outcomes is to (as appropriate)
limit the permissions granted to the credentials used with this tool.
See https://python.langchain.com/docs/security for more information.

For example, if the class is langchain.llms.openai.OpenAI, then the
namespace is [“langchain”, “llms”, “openai”]
get_output_schema(config: Optional[RunnableConfig] = None) → Type[BaseModel]¶
Get a pydantic model that can be used to validate output to the runnable.
Runnables that leverage the configurable_fields and configurable_alternatives
methods will have a dynamic output schema that depends on which
configuration the runnable is invoked with.
This method allows to get an output schema for a specific configuration.
Parameters
config – A config to use when generating the schema.
Returns
A pydantic model that can be used to validate output.
invoke(input: Dict[str, Any], config: Optional[RunnableConfig] = None, **kwargs: Any) → Dict[str, Any]¶
Transform a single input into an output. Override to implement.
Parameters
input – The input to the runnable.
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]¶
