RetryOutputParser
RetryOutputParser#
While in some cases it is possible to fix any parsing mistakes by only looking at the output, in other cases it can’t. An example of this is when the output is not just in the incorrect format, but is partially complete. Consider the below example.
from langchain.prompts import PromptTemplate, ChatPromptTemplate, HumanMessagePromptTemplate
from langchain.llms import OpenAI
from langchain.chat_models import ChatOpenAI
from langchain.output_parsers import PydanticOutputParser, OutputFixingParser, RetryOutputParser
from pydantic import BaseModel, Field, validator
from typing import List
template = """Based on the user question, provide an Action and Action Input for what step should be taken.
{format_instructions}
Question: {query}
Response:"""
class Action(BaseModel):
action: str = Field(description="action to take")
action_input: str = Field(description="input to the action")
parser = PydanticOutputParser(pydantic_object=Action)
prompt = PromptTemplate(
template="Answer the user query.\n{format_instructions}\n{query}\n",
input_variables=["query"],
partial_variables={"format_instructions": parser.get_format_instructions()}
)
prompt_value = prompt.format_prompt(query="who is leo di caprios gf?")
bad_response = '{"action": "search"}'
If we try to parse this response as is, we will get an error
parser.parse(bad_response)

If we try to use the OutputFixingParser to fix this error, it will be confused - namely, it doesn’t know what to actually put for action input.

Instead, we can use the RetryOutputParser, which passes in the prompt (as well as the original output) to try again to get a better response.

Structured Output Parser
Structured Output Parser#
While the Pydantic/JSON parser is more powerful, we initially experimented data structures having text fields only.
from langchain.output_parsers import StructuredOutputParser, ResponseSchema
from langchain.prompts import PromptTemplate, ChatPromptTemplate, HumanMessagePromptTemplate
from langchain.llms import OpenAI
from langchain.chat_models import ChatOpenAI
Here we define the response schema we want to receive.
response_schemas = [
ResponseSchema(name="answer", description="answer to the user's question"),
ResponseSchema(name="source", description="source used to answer the user's question, should be a website.")
]
output_parser = StructuredOutputParser.from_response_schemas(response_schemas)
We now get a string that contains instructions for how the response should be formatted, and we then insert that into our prompt.
format_instructions = output_parser.get_format_instructions()
prompt = PromptTemplate(
template="answer the users question as best as possible.\n{format_instructions}\n{question}",
input_variables=["question"],
partial_variables={"format_instructions": format_instructions}
)
We can now use this to format a prompt to send to the language model, and then parse the returned result.
model = OpenAI(temperature=0)
_input = prompt.format_prompt(question="what's the capital of france?")
output = model(_input.to_string())
output_parser.parse(output)
{'answer': 'Paris',
'source': 'https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/what-is-the-capital-of-france.html'}
And here’s an example of using this in a chat model
chat_model = ChatOpenAI(temperature=0)
prompt = ChatPromptTemplate(
messages=[ | https://python.langchain.com/en/latest/modules/prompts/output_parsers/examples/structured.html |
98b994fdf489-1 | prompt = ChatPromptTemplate(
messages=[
HumanMessagePromptTemplate.from_template("answer the users question as best as possible.\n{format_instructions}\n{question}")
],
input_variables=["question"],
partial_variables={"format_instructions": format_instructions}
)
_input = prompt.format_prompt(question="what's the capital of france?")
output = chat_model(_input.to_messages())
output_parser.parse(output.content)
{'answer': 'Paris', 'source': 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paris'}

PydanticOutputParser
PydanticOutputParser#
This output parser allows users to specify an arbitrary JSON schema and query LLMs for JSON outputs that conform to that schema.
Keep in mind that large language models are leaky abstractions! You’ll have to use an LLM with sufficient capacity to generate well-formed JSON. In the OpenAI family, DaVinci can do reliably but Curie’s ability already drops off dramatically.
Use Pydantic to declare your data model. Pydantic’s BaseModel like a Python dataclass, but with actual type checking + coercion.
from langchain.prompts import PromptTemplate, ChatPromptTemplate, HumanMessagePromptTemplate
from langchain.llms import OpenAI
from langchain.chat_models import ChatOpenAI
from langchain.output_parsers import PydanticOutputParser
from pydantic import BaseModel, Field, validator
from typing import List
model_name = 'text-davinci-003'
temperature = 0.0
model = OpenAI(model_name=model_name, temperature=temperature)
# Define your desired data structure.
class Joke(BaseModel):
setup: str = Field(description="question to set up a joke")
punchline: str = Field(description="answer to resolve the joke")
# You can add custom validation logic easily with Pydantic.
@validator('setup')
def question_ends_with_question_mark(cls, field):
if field[-1] != '?':
raise ValueError("Badly formed question!")
return field
# And a query intented to prompt a language model to populate the data structure.
joke_query = "Tell me a joke."
# Set up a parser + inject instructions into the prompt template.
parser = PydanticOutputParser(pydantic_object=Joke)
prompt = PromptTemplate( | https://python.langchain.com/en/latest/modules/prompts/output_parsers/examples/pydantic.html |

)
_input = prompt.format_prompt(query=joke_query)
output = model(_input.to_string())
parser.parse(output)
Joke(setup='Why did the chicken cross the road?', punchline='To get to the other side!')
# Here's another example, but with a compound typed field.
class Actor(BaseModel):

film_names: List[str] = Field(description="list of names of films they starred in")

OutputFixingParser
OutputFixingParser#
This output parser wraps another output parser and tries to fix any mistakes
The Pydantic guardrail simply tries to parse the LLM response. If it does not parse correctly, then it errors.
But we can do other things besides throw errors. Specifically, we can pass the misformatted output, along with the formatted instructions, to the model and ask it to fix it.
For this example, we’ll use the above OutputParser. Here’s what happens if we pass it a result that does not comply with the schema:
from langchain.prompts import PromptTemplate, ChatPromptTemplate, HumanMessagePromptTemplate
from langchain.llms import OpenAI
from langchain.chat_models import ChatOpenAI
from langchain.output_parsers import PydanticOutputParser
from pydantic import BaseModel, Field, validator
from typing import List
class Actor(BaseModel):
name: str = Field(description="name of an actor")
film_names: List[str] = Field(description="list of names of films they starred in")
actor_query = "Generate the filmography for a random actor."
parser = PydanticOutputParser(pydantic_object=Actor)
misformatted = "{'name': 'Tom Hanks', 'film_names': ['Forrest Gump']}"
parser.parse(misformatted)

NGram Overlap ExampleSelector
NGram Overlap ExampleSelector#
The NGramOverlapExampleSelector selects and orders examples based on which examples are most similar to the input, according to an ngram overlap score. The ngram overlap score is a float between 0.0 and 1.0, inclusive.
The selector allows for a threshold score to be set. Examples with an ngram overlap score less than or equal to the threshold are excluded. The threshold is set to -1.0, by default, so will not exclude any examples, only reorder them. Setting the threshold to 0.0 will exclude examples that have no ngram overlaps with the input.

Maximal Marginal Relevance ExampleSelector
Maximal Marginal Relevance ExampleSelector#
The MaxMarginalRelevanceExampleSelector selects examples based on a combination of which examples are most similar to the inputs, while also optimizing for diversity. It does this by finding the examples with the embeddings that have the greatest cosine similarity with the inputs, and then iteratively adding them while penalizing them for closeness to already selected examples.

How to create a custom example selector#
In this tutorial, we’ll create a custom example selector that selects every alternate example from a given list of examples.
An ExampleSelector must implement two methods:
An add_example method which takes in an example and adds it into the ExampleSelector
A select_examples method which takes in input variables (which are meant to be user input) and returns a list of examples to use in the few shot prompt.
Let’s implement a custom ExampleSelector that just selects two examples at random.
Note
Take a look at the current set of example selector implementations supported in LangChain here.
Implement custom example selector#
from langchain.prompts.example_selector.base import BaseExampleSelector
from typing import Dict, List
import numpy as np
class CustomExampleSelector(BaseExampleSelector):
def __init__(self, examples: List[Dict[str, str]]):
self.examples = examples
def add_example(self, example: Dict[str, str]) -> None:
"""Add new example to store for a key."""
self.examples.append(example)
def select_examples(self, input_variables: Dict[str, str]) -> List[dict]:
"""Select which examples to use based on the inputs."""
return np.random.choice(self.examples, size=2, replace=False)
Use custom example selector#
examples = [
{"foo": "1"},
{"foo": "2"},
{"foo": "3"}
]
# Initialize example selector.
example_selector = CustomExampleSelector(examples)
# Select examples
example_selector.select_examples({"foo": "foo"})
# -> array([{'foo': '2'}, {'foo': '3'}], dtype=object) | https://python.langchain.com/en/latest/modules/prompts/example_selectors/examples/custom_example_selector.html |
a6df159d5512-1 | # Add new example to the set of examples
example_selector.add_example({"foo": "4"})
example_selector.examples
# -> [{'foo': '1'}, {'foo': '2'}, {'foo': '3'}, {'foo': '4'}]
# Select examples
example_selector.select_examples({"foo": "foo"})
# -> array([{'foo': '1'}, {'foo': '4'}], dtype=object)

Getting Started#
In this tutorial, we will learn about:
what a prompt template is, and why it is needed,
how to create a prompt template,
how to pass few shot examples to a prompt template,
how to select examples for a prompt template.
What is a prompt template?#
A prompt template refers to a reproducible way to generate a prompt. It contains a text string (“the template”), that can take in a set of parameters from the end user and generate a prompt.
The prompt template may contain:
instructions to the language model,
a set of few shot examples to help the language model generate a better response,
a question to the language model.
The following code snippet contains an example of a prompt template:
from langchain import PromptTemplate
template = """
I want you to act as a naming consultant for new companies.
What is a good name for a company that makes {product}?
"""
prompt = PromptTemplate(
input_variables=["product"],
template=template,
)
prompt.format(product="colorful socks")
# -> I want you to act as a naming consultant for new companies.
# -> What is a good name for a company that makes colorful socks?
Create a prompt template#
You can create simple hardcoded prompts using the PromptTemplate class. Prompt templates can take any number of input variables, and can be formatted to generate a prompt.
from langchain import PromptTemplate
# An example prompt with no input variables
no_input_prompt = PromptTemplate(input_variables=[], template="Tell me a joke.")
no_input_prompt.format()
# -> "Tell me a joke." | https://python.langchain.com/en/latest/modules/prompts/prompt_templates/getting_started.html |
2a46250ea435-1 | no_input_prompt.format()
# -> "Tell me a joke."
# An example prompt with one input variable
one_input_prompt = PromptTemplate(input_variables=["adjective"], template="Tell me a {adjective} joke.")
one_input_prompt.format(adjective="funny")
# -> "Tell me a funny joke."
# An example prompt with multiple input variables
multiple_input_prompt = PromptTemplate(
input_variables=["adjective", "content"],
template="Tell me a {adjective} joke about {content}."
)
multiple_input_prompt.format(adjective="funny", content="chickens")
# -> "Tell me a funny joke about chickens."
If you do not wish to specify input_variables manually, you can also create a PromptTemplate using from_template class method. langchain will automatically infer the input_variables based on the template passed.
template = "Tell me a {adjective} joke about {content}."
prompt_template = PromptTemplate.from_template(template)
prompt_template.input_variables
# -> ['adjective', 'content']
prompt_template.format(adjective="funny", content="chickens")
# -> Tell me a funny joke about chickens.
You can create custom prompt templates that format the prompt in any way you want. For more information, see Custom Prompt Templates.
Template formats#
By default, PromptTemplate will treat the provided template as a Python f-string. You can specify other template format through template_format argument:
# Make sure jinja2 is installed before running this
jinja2_template = "Tell me a {{ adjective }} joke about {{ content }}"
prompt_template = PromptTemplate.from_template(template=jinja2_template, template_format="jinja2")
prompt_template.format(adjective="funny", content="chickens")
# -> Tell me a funny joke about chickens. | https://python.langchain.com/en/latest/modules/prompts/prompt_templates/getting_started.html |
2a46250ea435-2 | # -> Tell me a funny joke about chickens.
Currently, PromptTemplate only supports jinja2 and f-string templating format. If there is any other templating format that you would like to use, feel free to open an issue in the Github page.
Validate template#
By default, PromptTemplate will validate the template string by checking whether the input_variables match the variables defined in template. You can disable this behavior by setting validate_template to False
template = "I am learning langchain because {reason}."
prompt_template = PromptTemplate(template=template,
input_variables=["reason", "foo"]) # ValueError due to extra variables
prompt_template = PromptTemplate(template=template,
input_variables=["reason", "foo"],
validate_template=False) # No error
Serialize prompt template#
You can save your PromptTemplate into a file in your local filesystem. langchain will automatically infer the file format through the file extension name. Currently, langchain supports saving template to YAML and JSON file.
prompt_template.save("awesome_prompt.json") # Save to JSON file
from langchain.prompts import load_prompt
loaded_prompt = load_prompt("awesome_prompt.json")
assert prompt_template == loaded_prompt
langchain also supports loading prompt template from LangChainHub, which contains a collection of useful prompts you can use in your project. You can read more about LangChainHub and the prompts available with it here.
from langchain.prompts import load_prompt
prompt = load_prompt("lc://prompts/conversation/prompt.json")
prompt.format(history="", input="What is 1 + 1?")
You can learn more about serializing prompt template in How to serialize prompts.
Pass few shot examples to a prompt template#
Few shot examples are a set of examples that can be used to help the language model generate a better response. | https://python.langchain.com/en/latest/modules/prompts/prompt_templates/getting_started.html |
2a46250ea435-3 | To generate a prompt with few shot examples, you can use the FewShotPromptTemplate. This class takes in a PromptTemplate and a list of few shot examples. It then formats the prompt template with the few shot examples.
In this example, we’ll create a prompt to generate word antonyms.
from langchain import PromptTemplate, FewShotPromptTemplate
# First, create the list of few shot examples.
examples = [
{"word": "happy", "antonym": "sad"},
{"word": "tall", "antonym": "short"},
]
# Next, we specify the template to format the examples we have provided.
# We use the `PromptTemplate` class for this.
example_formatter_template = """Word: {word}
Antonym: {antonym}
"""
example_prompt = PromptTemplate(
input_variables=["word", "antonym"],
template=example_formatter_template,
)
# Finally, we create the `FewShotPromptTemplate` object.
few_shot_prompt = FewShotPromptTemplate(
# These are the examples we want to insert into the prompt.
examples=examples,
# This is how we want to format the examples when we insert them into the prompt.
example_prompt=example_prompt,
# The prefix is some text that goes before the examples in the prompt.
# Usually, this consists of intructions.
prefix="Give the antonym of every input\n",
# The suffix is some text that goes after the examples in the prompt.
# Usually, this is where the user input will go
suffix="Word: {input}\nAntonym: ",
# The input variables are the variables that the overall prompt expects.
input_variables=["input"], | https://python.langchain.com/en/latest/modules/prompts/prompt_templates/getting_started.html |
2a46250ea435-4 | input_variables=["input"],
# The example_separator is the string we will use to join the prefix, examples, and suffix together with.
example_separator="\n",
)
# We can now generate a prompt using the `format` method.
print(few_shot_prompt.format(input="big"))
# -> Give the antonym of every input
# ->
# -> Word: happy
# -> Antonym: sad
# ->
# -> Word: tall
# -> Antonym: short
# ->
# -> Word: big
# -> Antonym:
Select examples for a prompt template#
If you have a large number of examples, you can use the ExampleSelector to select a subset of examples that will be most informative for the Language Model. This will help you generate a prompt that is more likely to generate a good response.
Below, we’ll use the LengthBasedExampleSelector, which selects examples based on the length of the input. This is useful when you are worried about constructing a prompt that will go over the length of the context window. For longer inputs, it will select fewer examples to include, while for shorter inputs it will select more.
We’ll continue with the example from the previous section, but this time we’ll use the LengthBasedExampleSelector to select the examples.
from langchain.prompts.example_selector import LengthBasedExampleSelector
# These are a lot of examples of a pretend task of creating antonyms.
examples = [
{"word": "happy", "antonym": "sad"},
{"word": "tall", "antonym": "short"},
{"word": "energetic", "antonym": "lethargic"},
{"word": "sunny", "antonym": "gloomy"},
{"word": "windy", "antonym": "calm"},
] | https://python.langchain.com/en/latest/modules/prompts/prompt_templates/getting_started.html |
2a46250ea435-5 | {"word": "windy", "antonym": "calm"},
]
# We'll use the `LengthBasedExampleSelector` to select the examples.
example_selector = LengthBasedExampleSelector(
# These are the examples is has available to choose from.
examples=examples,
# This is the PromptTemplate being used to format the examples.
example_prompt=example_prompt,
# This is the maximum length that the formatted examples should be.
# Length is measured by the get_text_length function below.
max_length=25
# This is the function used to get the length of a string, which is used
# to determine which examples to include. It is commented out because
# it is provided as a default value if none is specified.
# get_text_length: Callable[[str], int] = lambda x: len(re.split("\n| ", x))
)
# We can now use the `example_selector` to create a `FewShotPromptTemplate`.
dynamic_prompt = FewShotPromptTemplate(
# We provide an ExampleSelector instead of examples.
example_selector=example_selector,
example_prompt=example_prompt,
prefix="Give the antonym of every input",
suffix="Word: {input}\nAntonym:",
input_variables=["input"],
example_separator="\n\n",
)
# We can now generate a prompt using the `format` method.
print(dynamic_prompt.format(input="big"))
# -> Give the antonym of every input
# ->
# -> Word: happy
# -> Antonym: sad
# ->
# -> Word: tall
# -> Antonym: short
# ->
# -> Word: energetic
# -> Antonym: lethargic
# ->
# -> Word: sunny | https://python.langchain.com/en/latest/modules/prompts/prompt_templates/getting_started.html |
2a46250ea435-6 | # -> Antonym: lethargic
# ->
# -> Word: sunny
# -> Antonym: gloomy
# ->
# -> Word: windy
# -> Antonym: calm
# ->
# -> Word: big
# -> Antonym:
In contrast, if we provide a very long input, the LengthBasedExampleSelector will select fewer examples to include in the prompt.
long_string = "big and huge and massive and large and gigantic and tall and much much much much much bigger than everything else"
print(dynamic_prompt.format(input=long_string))
# -> Give the antonym of every input
# -> Word: happy
# -> Antonym: sad
# ->
# -> Word: big and huge and massive and large and gigantic and tall and much much much much much bigger than everything else
# -> Antonym:
LangChain comes with a few example selectors that you can use. For more details on how to use them, see Example Selectors.
You can create custom example selectors that select examples based on any criteria you want. For more details on how to do this, see Creating a custom example selector.

Partial With Functions
How to work with partial Prompt Templates#
A prompt template is a class with a .format method which takes in a key-value map and returns a string (a prompt) to pass to the language model. Like other methods, it can make sense to “partial” a prompt template - eg pass in a subset of the required values, as to create a new prompt template which expects only the remaining subset of values.
LangChain supports this in two ways: we allow for partially formatted prompts (1) with string values, (2) with functions that return string values. These two different ways support different use cases. In the documentation below we go over the motivations for both use cases as well as how to do it in LangChain.
Partial With Strings#
One common use case for wanting to partial a prompt template is if you get some of the variables before others. For example, suppose you have a prompt template that requires two variables, foo and baz. If you get the foo value early on in the chain, but the baz value later, it can be annoying to wait until you have both variables in the same place to pass them to the prompt template. Instead, you can partial the prompt template with the foo value, and then pass the partialed prompt template along and just use that. Below is an example of doing this:
from langchain.prompts import PromptTemplate
prompt = PromptTemplate(template="{foo}{bar}", input_variables=["foo", "bar"])
partial_prompt = prompt.partial(foo="foo");
print(partial_prompt.format(bar="baz"))
foobaz
You can also just initialize the prompt with the partialed variables.
prompt = PromptTemplate(template="{foo}{bar}", input_variables=["bar"], partial_variables={"foo": "foo"})
print(prompt.format(bar="baz"))
foobaz | https://python.langchain.com/en/latest/modules/prompts/prompt_templates/examples/partial.html |
1890c5227cd8-1 | print(prompt.format(bar="baz"))
foobaz
Partial With Functions#
The other common use is to partial with a function. The use case for this is when you have a variable you know that you always want to fetch in a common way. A prime example of this is with date or time. Imagine you have a prompt which you always want to have the current date. You can’t hard code it in the prompt, and passing it along with the other input variables is a bit annoying. In this case, it’s very handy to be able to partial the prompt with a function that always returns the current date.
from datetime import datetime
def _get_datetime():
now = datetime.now()
return now.strftime("%m/%d/%Y, %H:%M:%S")
prompt = PromptTemplate(
template="Tell me a {adjective} joke about the day {date}",
input_variables=["adjective", "date"]
);
partial_prompt = prompt.partial(date=_get_datetime)
print(partial_prompt.format(adjective="funny"))
Tell me a funny joke about the day 02/27/2023, 22:15:16
You can also just initialize the prompt with the partialed variables, which often makes more sense in this workflow.
prompt = PromptTemplate(
template="Tell me a {adjective} joke about the day {date}",
input_variables=["adjective"],
partial_variables={"date": _get_datetime}
);
print(prompt.format(adjective="funny"))
Tell me a funny joke about the day 02/27/2023, 22:15:16

How to serialize prompts#
It is often preferrable to store prompts not as python code but as files. This can make it easy to share, store, and version prompts. This notebook covers how to do that in LangChain, walking through all the different types of prompts and the different serialization options.
At a high level, the following design principles are applied to serialization:
Both JSON and YAML are supported. We want to support serialization methods that are human readable on disk, and YAML and JSON are two of the most popular methods for that. Note that this rule applies to prompts. For other assets, like Examples, different serialization methods may be supported.
We support specifying everything in one file, or storing different components (templates, examples, etc) in different files and referencing them. For some cases, storing everything in file makes the most sense, but for others it is preferrable to split up some of the assets (long templates, large examples, reusable components). LangChain supports both.
There is also a single entry point to load prompts from disk, making it easy to load any type of prompt.
# All prompts are loaded through the `load_prompt` function.
from langchain.prompts import load_prompt
PromptTemplate#
This section covers examples for loading a PromptTemplate.
Loading from YAML#
This shows an example of loading a PromptTemplate from YAML.
!cat simple_prompt.yaml
_type: prompt
input_variables:
["adjective", "content"]
template:
Tell me a {adjective} joke about {content}.
prompt = load_prompt("simple_prompt.yaml") | https://python.langchain.com/en/latest/modules/prompts/prompt_templates/examples/prompt_serialization.html |
3177b63d2c25-1 | prompt = load_prompt("simple_prompt.yaml")
print(prompt.format(adjective="funny", content="chickens"))
Tell me a funny joke about chickens.
Loading from JSON#
This shows an example of loading a PromptTemplate from JSON.
!cat simple_prompt.json
{
"_type": "prompt",
"input_variables": ["adjective", "content"],
"template": "Tell me a {adjective} joke about {content}."
}
prompt = load_prompt("simple_prompt.json")
print(prompt.format(adjective="funny", content="chickens"))
Tell me a funny joke about chickens.
Loading Template from a File#
This shows an example of storing the template in a separate file and then referencing it in the config. Notice that the key changes from template to template_path.
!cat simple_template.txt
Tell me a {adjective} joke about {content}.
!cat simple_prompt_with_template_file.json
{
"_type": "prompt",
"input_variables": ["adjective", "content"],
"template_path": "simple_template.txt"
}
prompt = load_prompt("simple_prompt_with_template_file.json")
print(prompt.format(adjective="funny", content="chickens"))
Tell me a funny joke about chickens.
FewShotPromptTemplate#
This section covers examples for loading few shot prompt templates.
Examples#
This shows an example of what examples stored as json might look like.
!cat examples.json
[
{"input": "happy", "output": "sad"},
{"input": "tall", "output": "short"}
]
And here is what the same examples stored as yaml might look like.
!cat examples.yaml
- input: happy
output: sad
- input: tall
output: short
Loading from YAML# | https://python.langchain.com/en/latest/modules/prompts/prompt_templates/examples/prompt_serialization.html |
3177b63d2c25-2 | output: sad
- input: tall
output: short
Loading from YAML#
This shows an example of loading a few shot example from YAML.
!cat few_shot_prompt.yaml
_type: few_shot
input_variables:
["adjective"]
prefix:
Write antonyms for the following words.
example_prompt:
_type: prompt
input_variables:
["input", "output"]
template:
"Input: {input}\nOutput: {output}"
examples:
examples.json
suffix:
"Input: {adjective}\nOutput:"
prompt = load_prompt("few_shot_prompt.yaml")
print(prompt.format(adjective="funny"))
Write antonyms for the following words.
Input: happy
Output: sad
Input: tall
Output: short
Input: funny
Output:
The same would work if you loaded examples from the yaml file.
!cat few_shot_prompt_yaml_examples.yaml
_type: few_shot
input_variables:
["adjective"]
prefix:
Write antonyms for the following words.
example_prompt:
_type: prompt
input_variables:
["input", "output"]
template:
"Input: {input}\nOutput: {output}"
examples:
examples.yaml
suffix:
"Input: {adjective}\nOutput:"
prompt = load_prompt("few_shot_prompt_yaml_examples.yaml")
print(prompt.format(adjective="funny"))
Write antonyms for the following words.
Input: happy
Output: sad
Input: tall
Output: short
Input: funny
Output:
Loading from JSON#

Why are custom prompt templates needed?
Creating a Custom Prompt Template
Use the custom prompt template
How to create a custom prompt template#
Let’s suppose we want the LLM to generate English language explanations of a function given its name. To achieve this task, we will create a custom prompt template that takes in the function name as input, and formats the prompt template to provide the source code of the function.
Why are custom prompt templates needed?#
LangChain provides a set of default prompt templates that can be used to generate prompts for a variety of tasks. However, there may be cases where the default prompt templates do not meet your needs. For example, you may want to create a prompt template with specific dynamic instructions for your language model. In such cases, you can create a custom prompt template.
Take a look at the current set of default prompt templates here.
Creating a Custom Prompt Template#
There are essentially two distinct prompt templates available - string prompt templates and chat prompt templates. String prompt templates provides a simple prompt in string format, while chat prompt templates produces a more structured prompt to be used with a chat API.
In this guide, we will create a custom prompt using a string prompt template.
To create a custom string prompt template, there are two requirements:
It has an input_variables attribute that exposes what input variables the prompt template expects.
It exposes a format method that takes in keyword arguments corresponding to the expected input_variables and returns the formatted prompt.
We will create a custom prompt template that takes in the function name as input and formats the prompt to provide the source code of the function. To achieve this, let’s first create a function that will return the source code of a function given its name.
import inspect
def get_source_code(function_name):
# Get the source code of the function | https://python.langchain.com/en/latest/modules/prompts/prompt_templates/examples/custom_prompt_template.html |
1daa5b96d7ea-1 | def get_source_code(function_name):
# Get the source code of the function
return inspect.getsource(function_name)
Next, we’ll create a custom prompt template that takes in the function name as input, and formats the prompt template to provide the source code of the function.
from langchain.prompts import StringPromptTemplate
from pydantic import BaseModel, validator
class FunctionExplainerPromptTemplate(StringPromptTemplate, BaseModel):
""" A custom prompt template that takes in the function name as input, and formats the prompt template to provide the source code of the function. """
@validator("input_variables")
def validate_input_variables(cls, v):
""" Validate that the input variables are correct. """
if len(v) != 1 or "function_name" not in v:
raise ValueError("function_name must be the only input_variable.")
return v
def format(self, **kwargs) -> str:
# Get the source code of the function
source_code = get_source_code(kwargs["function_name"])
# Generate the prompt to be sent to the language model
prompt = f"""
Given the function name and source code, generate an English language explanation of the function.
Function Name: {kwargs["function_name"].__name__}
Source Code:
{source_code}
Explanation:
"""
return prompt
def _prompt_type(self):
return "function-explainer"
Use the custom prompt template#
Now that we have created a custom prompt template, we can use it to generate prompts for our task.
fn_explainer = FunctionExplainerPromptTemplate(input_variables=["function_name"])
# Generate a prompt for the function "get_source_code"
prompt = fn_explainer.format(function_name=get_source_code)
print(prompt) | https://python.langchain.com/en/latest/modules/prompts/prompt_templates/examples/custom_prompt_template.html |
1daa5b96d7ea-2 | prompt = fn_explainer.format(function_name=get_source_code)
print(prompt)
Given the function name and source code, generate an English language explanation of the function.
Function Name: get_source_code
Source Code:
def get_source_code(function_name):
# Get the source code of the function
return inspect.getsource(function_name)

Connecting to a Feature Store#
Feature stores are a concept from traditional machine learning that make sure data fed into models is up-to-date and relevant. For more on this, see here.
This concept is extremely relevant when considering putting LLM applications in production. In order to personalize LLM applications, you may want to combine LLMs with up-to-date information about particular users. Feature stores can be a great way to keep that data fresh, and LangChain provides an easy way to combine that data with LLMs.
In this notebook we will show how to connect prompt templates to feature stores. The basic idea is to call a feature store from inside a prompt template to retrieve values that are then formatted into the prompt.
Feast#
To start, we will use the popular open source feature store framework Feast.
This assumes you have already run the steps in the README around getting started. We will build of off that example in getting started, and create and LLMChain to write a note to a specific driver regarding their up-to-date statistics.
Load Feast Store#
Again, this should be set up according to the instructions in the Feast README
from feast import FeatureStore
# You may need to update the path depending on where you stored it
feast_repo_path = "../../../../../my_feature_repo/feature_repo/"
store = FeatureStore(repo_path=feast_repo_path)
Prompts#
Here we will set up a custom FeastPromptTemplate. This prompt template will take in a driver id, look up their stats, and format those stats into a prompt. | https://python.langchain.com/en/latest/modules/prompts/prompt_templates/examples/connecting_to_a_feature_store.html |
b7e94a670164-1 | Note that the input to this prompt template is just driver_id, since that is the only user defined piece (all other variables are looked up inside the prompt template).
from langchain.prompts import PromptTemplate, StringPromptTemplate
template = """Given the driver's up to date stats, write them note relaying those stats to them.
If they have a conversation rate above .5, give them a compliment. Otherwise, make a silly joke about chickens at the end to make them feel better
Here are the drivers stats:
Conversation rate: {conv_rate}
Acceptance rate: {acc_rate}
Average Daily Trips: {avg_daily_trips}
Your response:"""
prompt = PromptTemplate.from_template(template)
class FeastPromptTemplate(StringPromptTemplate):
def format(self, **kwargs) -> str:
driver_id = kwargs.pop("driver_id")
feature_vector = store.get_online_features(
features=[
'driver_hourly_stats:conv_rate',
'driver_hourly_stats:acc_rate',
'driver_hourly_stats:avg_daily_trips'
],
entity_rows=[{"driver_id": driver_id}]
).to_dict()
kwargs["conv_rate"] = feature_vector["conv_rate"][0]
kwargs["acc_rate"] = feature_vector["acc_rate"][0]
kwargs["avg_daily_trips"] = feature_vector["avg_daily_trips"][0]
return prompt.format(**kwargs)
prompt_template = FeastPromptTemplate(input_variables=["driver_id"])
print(prompt_template.format(driver_id=1001))
Given the driver's up to date stats, write them note relaying those stats to them.
If they have a conversation rate above .5, give them a compliment. Otherwise, make a silly joke about chickens at the end to make them feel better
Here are the drivers stats: | https://python.langchain.com/en/latest/modules/prompts/prompt_templates/examples/connecting_to_a_feature_store.html |

Acceptance rate: 0.055561766028404236
Average Daily Trips: 936
Your response:
Use in a chain#
We can now use this in a chain, successfully creating a chain that achieves personalization backed by a feature store
from langchain.chat_models import ChatOpenAI
from langchain.chains import LLMChain
chain = LLMChain(llm=ChatOpenAI(), prompt=prompt_template)
chain.run(1001)
"Hi there! I wanted to update you on your current stats. Your acceptance rate is 0.055561766028404236 and your average daily trips are 936. While your conversation rate is currently 0.4745151400566101, I have no doubt that with a little extra effort, you'll be able to exceed that .5 mark! Keep up the great work! And remember, even chickens can't always cross the road, but they still give it their best shot."
Tecton#
Above, we showed how you could use Feast, a popular open source and self-managed feature store, with LangChain. Our examples below will show a similar integration using Tecton. Tecton is a fully managed feature platform built to orchestrate the complete ML feature lifecycle, from transformation to online serving, with enterprise-grade SLAs.
Prerequisites#
Tecton Deployment (sign up at https://tecton.ai)
TECTON_API_KEY environment variable set to a valid Service Account key
Define and Load Features#
We will use the user_transaction_counts Feature View from the Tecton tutorial as part of a Feature Service. For simplicity, we are only using a single Feature View; however, more sophisticated applications may require more feature views to retrieve the features needed for its prompt.
user_transaction_metrics = FeatureService( | https://python.langchain.com/en/latest/modules/prompts/prompt_templates/examples/connecting_to_a_feature_store.html |
b7e94a670164-3 | user_transaction_metrics = FeatureService(
name = "user_transaction_metrics",
features = [user_transaction_counts]
)
The above Feature Service is expected to be applied to a live workspace. For this example, we will be using the “prod” workspace.
import tecton
workspace = tecton.get_workspace("prod")
feature_service = workspace.get_feature_service("user_transaction_metrics")
Prompts#
Here we will set up a custom TectonPromptTemplate. This prompt template will take in a user_id , look up their stats, and format those stats into a prompt.
Note that the input to this prompt template is just user_id, since that is the only user defined piece (all other variables are looked up inside the prompt template).
from langchain.prompts import PromptTemplate, StringPromptTemplate
template = """Given the vendor's up to date transaction stats, write them a note based on the following rules:
1. If they had a transaction in the last day, write a short congratulations message on their recent sales
2. If no transaction in the last day, but they had a transaction in the last 30 days, playfully encourage them to sell more.
3. Always add a silly joke about chickens at the end

prompt = PromptTemplate.from_template(template)
class TectonPromptTemplate(StringPromptTemplate):
def format(self, **kwargs) -> str:
user_id = kwargs.pop("user_id")
feature_vector = feature_service.get_online_features(join_keys={"user_id": user_id}).to_dict()

b7e94a670164-4 | kwargs["transaction_count_30d"] = feature_vector["user_transaction_counts.transaction_count_30d_1d"]
return prompt.format(**kwargs)
prompt_template = TectonPromptTemplate(input_variables=["user_id"])
print(prompt_template.format(user_id="user_469998441571"))

3. Always add a silly joke about chickens at the end
Here are the vendor's stats:

Number of Transactions Last 30 Days: 20326

We can now use this in a chain, successfully creating a chain that achieves personalization backed by the Tecton Feature Platform

chain = LLMChain(llm=ChatOpenAI(), prompt=prompt_template)
chain.run("user_469998441571")
'Wow, congratulations on your recent sales! Your business is really soaring like a chicken on a hot air balloon! Keep up the great work!'
Featureform#
Finally, we will use Featureform an open-source and enterprise-grade feature store to run the same example. Featureform allows you to work with your infrastructure like Spark or locally to define your feature transformations.
Initialize Featureform#
You can follow in the instructions in the README to initialize your transformations and features in Featureform.
import featureform as ff
client = ff.Client(host="demo.featureform.com")
Prompts# | https://python.langchain.com/en/latest/modules/prompts/prompt_templates/examples/connecting_to_a_feature_store.html |
b7e94a670164-5 | client = ff.Client(host="demo.featureform.com")
Prompts#
Here we will set up a custom FeatureformPromptTemplate. This prompt template will take in the average amount a user pays per transactions.
Note that the input to this prompt template is just avg_transaction, since that is the only user defined piece (all other variables are looked up inside the prompt template).
from langchain.prompts import PromptTemplate, StringPromptTemplate
template = """Given the amount a user spends on average per transaction, let them know if they are a high roller. Otherwise, make a silly joke about chickens at the end to make them feel better

How to create a prompt template that uses few shot examples#
In this tutorial, we’ll learn how to create a prompt template that uses few shot examples.
We’ll use the FewShotPromptTemplate class to create a prompt template that uses few shot examples. This class either takes in a set of examples, or an ExampleSelector object. In this tutorial, we’ll go over both options.
Use Case#
In this tutorial, we’ll configure few shot examples for self-ask with search.
Using an example set#
Create the example set#
To get started, create a list of few shot examples. Each example should be a dictionary with the keys being the input variables and the values being the values for those input variables.

}
]
Create a formatter for the few shot examples#
Configure a formatter that will format the few shot examples into a string. This formatter should be a PromptTemplate object.
example_prompt = PromptTemplate(input_variables=["question", "answer"], template="Question: {question}\n{answer}") | https://python.langchain.com/en/latest/modules/prompts/prompt_templates/examples/few_shot_examples.html |

Feed examples and formatter to FewShotPromptTemplate#
Finally, create a FewShotPromptTemplate object. This object takes in the few shot examples and the formatter for the few shot examples.
prompt = FewShotPromptTemplate(

Using an example selector#
Feed examples into ExampleSelector#
We will reuse the example set and the formatter from the previous section. However, instead of feeding the examples directly into the FewShotPromptTemplate object, we will feed them into an ExampleSelector object.
In this tutorial, we will use the SemanticSimilarityExampleSelector class. This class selects few shot examples based on their similarity to the input. It uses an embedding model to compute the similarity between the input and the few shot examples, as well as a vector store to perform the nearest neighbor search.
from langchain.prompts.example_selector import SemanticSimilarityExampleSelector
from langchain.vectorstores import Chroma
from langchain.embeddings import OpenAIEmbeddings
example_selector = SemanticSimilarityExampleSelector.from_examples(
# This is the list of examples available to select from.

examples,
# This is the embedding class used to produce embeddings which are used to measure semantic similarity.
OpenAIEmbeddings(),

Chroma,
# This is the number of examples to produce.
k=1
)
# Select the most similar example to the input.
question = "Who was the father of Mary Ball Washington?"
selected_examples = example_selector.select_examples({"question": question})
print(f"Examples most similar to the input: {question}")
for example in selected_examples:
print("\n")
for k, v in example.items():
print(f"{k}: {v}")

Prompt Composition
Prompt Composition#
This notebook goes over how to compose multiple prompts together. This can be useful when you want to reuse parts of prompts. This can be done with a PipelinePrompt. A PipelinePrompt consists of two main parts:
final_prompt: This is the final prompt that is returned
pipeline_prompts: This is a list of tuples, consisting of a string (name) and a Prompt Template. Each PromptTemplate will be formatted and then passed to future prompt templates as a variable with the same name as name
from langchain.prompts.pipeline import PipelinePromptTemplate
from langchain.prompts.prompt import PromptTemplate
full_template = """{introduction}
{example}
{start}"""
full_prompt = PromptTemplate.from_template(full_template)
introduction_template = """You are impersonating {person}."""
introduction_prompt = PromptTemplate.from_template(introduction_template)
example_template = """Here's an example of an interaction:
Q: {example_q}
A: {example_a}"""
example_prompt = PromptTemplate.from_template(example_template)
start_template = """Now, do this for real!
Q: {input}
A:"""
start_prompt = PromptTemplate.from_template(start_template)
input_prompts = [
("introduction", introduction_prompt),
("example", example_prompt),
("start", start_prompt)
]
pipeline_prompt = PipelinePromptTemplate(final_prompt=full_prompt, pipeline_prompts=input_prompts)
pipeline_prompt.input_variables
['example_a', 'person', 'example_q', 'input']

Run Example
Plan and Execute#
Plan and execute agents accomplish an objective by first planning what to do, then executing the sub tasks. This idea is largely inspired by BabyAGI and then the “Plan-and-Solve” paper.
The planning is almost always done by an LLM.
The execution is usually done by a separate agent (equipped with tools).

Getting Started
Getting Started#
Agents use an LLM to determine which actions to take and in what order.
An action can either be using a tool and observing its output, or returning to the user.
When used correctly agents can be extremely powerful. The purpose of this notebook is to show you how to easily use agents through the simplest, highest level API.
In order to load agents, you should understand the following concepts:
Tool: A function that performs a specific duty. This can be things like: Google Search, Database lookup, Python REPL, other chains. The interface for a tool is currently a function that is expected to have a string as an input, with a string as an output.
LLM: The language model powering the agent.
Agent: The agent to use. This should be a string that references a support agent class. Because this notebook focuses on the simplest, highest level API, this only covers using the standard supported agents. If you want to implement a custom agent, see the documentation for custom agents.
Agents: For a list of supported agents and their specifications, see here.
Tools: For a list of predefined tools and their specifications, see here.
from langchain.agents import load_tools
from langchain.agents import initialize_agent
from langchain.agents import AgentType
from langchain.llms import OpenAI
First, let’s load the language model we’re going to use to control the agent.
llm = OpenAI(temperature=0)
Next, let’s load some tools to use. Note that the llm-math tool uses an LLM, so we need to pass that in.
tools = load_tools(["serpapi", "llm-math"], llm=llm)
Finally, let’s initialize an agent with the tools, the language model, and the type of agent we want to use. | https://python.langchain.com/en/latest/modules/agents/getting_started.html |
29aaf7f21702-1 | agent = initialize_agent(tools, llm, agent=AgentType.ZERO_SHOT_REACT_DESCRIPTION, verbose=True)
Now let’s test it out!
agent.run("Who is Leo DiCaprio's girlfriend? What is her current age raised to the 0.43 power?")
> Entering new AgentExecutor chain...
I need to find out who Leo DiCaprio's girlfriend is and then calculate her age raised to the 0.43 power.
Action: Search
Action Input: "Leo DiCaprio girlfriend"
Observation: Camila Morrone
Thought: I need to find out Camila Morrone's age
Action: Search
Action Input: "Camila Morrone age"
Observation: 25 years
Thought: I need to calculate 25 raised to the 0.43 power
Action: Calculator
Action Input: 25^0.43
Observation: Answer: 3.991298452658078
Thought: I now know the final answer
Final Answer: Camila Morrone is Leo DiCaprio's girlfriend and her current age raised to the 0.43 power is 3.991298452658078.

Defining Custom Tools#
When constructing your own agent, you will need to provide it with a list of Tools that it can use. Besides the actual function that is called, the Tool consists of several components:
name (str), is required and must be unique within a set of tools provided to an agent
description (str), is optional but recommended, as it is used by an agent to determine tool use
return_direct (bool), defaults to False
args_schema (Pydantic BaseModel), is optional but recommended, can be used to provide more information (e.g., few-shot examples) or validation for expected parameters.
There are two main ways to define a tool, we will cover both in the example below.
# Import things that are needed generically
from langchain import LLMMathChain, SerpAPIWrapper
from langchain.agents import AgentType, initialize_agent
from langchain.chat_models import ChatOpenAI
from langchain.tools import BaseTool, StructuredTool, Tool, tool
Initialize the LLM to use for the agent.
llm = ChatOpenAI(temperature=0)
Completely New Tools - String Input and Output#
The simplest tools accept a single query string and return a string output. If your tool function requires multiple arguments, you might want to skip down to the StructuredTool section below.
There are two ways to do this: either by using the Tool dataclass, or by subclassing the BaseTool class.
Tool dataclass# | https://python.langchain.com/en/latest/modules/agents/tools/custom_tools.html |
62c7ae8034a4-1 | Tool dataclass#
The ‘Tool’ dataclass wraps functions that accept a single string input and returns a string output.
# Load the tool configs that are needed.
search = SerpAPIWrapper()
llm_math_chain = LLMMathChain(llm=llm, verbose=True)
tools = [
Tool.from_function(
func=search.run,
name = "Search",
description="useful for when you need to answer questions about current events"
# coroutine= ... <- you can specify an async method if desired as well
),
]
/Users/wfh/code/lc/lckg/langchain/chains/llm_math/base.py:50: UserWarning: Directly instantiating an LLMMathChain with an llm is deprecated. Please instantiate with llm_chain argument or using the from_llm class method.
warnings.warn(
You can also define a custom `args_schema`` to provide more information about inputs.
from pydantic import BaseModel, Field
class CalculatorInput(BaseModel):
question: str = Field()
tools.append(
Tool.from_function(
func=llm_math_chain.run,
name="Calculator",

args_schema=CalculatorInput
# coroutine= ... <- you can specify an async method if desired as well
)
)
# Construct the agent. We will use the default agent type here.

62c7ae8034a4-3 | Subclassing the BaseTool class#
You can also directly subclass BaseTool. This is useful if you want more control over the instance variables or if you want to propagate callbacks to nested chains or other tools.

62c7ae8034a4-5 | '3.547023357958959'
Using the tool decorator#
To make it easier to define custom tools, a @tool decorator is provided. This decorator can be used to quickly create a Tool from a simple function. The decorator uses the function name as the tool name by default, but this can be overridden by passing a string as the first argument. Additionally, the decorator will use the function’s docstring as the tool’s description.
from langchain.tools import tool
@tool
def search_api(query: str) -> str:
"""Searches the API for the query."""
return f"Results for query {query}"
search_api
You can also provide arguments like the tool name and whether to return directly.
@tool("search", return_direct=True)
def search_api(query: str) -> str:
"""Searches the API for the query."""
return "Results"
search_api
Tool(name='search', description='search(query: str) -> str - Searches the API for the query.', args_schema=<class 'pydantic.main.SearchApi'>, return_direct=True, verbose=False, callback_manager=<langchain.callbacks.shared.SharedCallbackManager object at 0x12748c4c0>, func=<function search_api at 0x16bd66310>, coroutine=None)
You can also provide args_schema to provide more information about the argument
class SearchInput(BaseModel):
query: str = Field(description="should be a search query")
@tool("search", return_direct=True, args_schema=SearchInput)
def search_api(query: str) -> str:
"""Searches the API for the query."""
return "Results"
search_api | https://python.langchain.com/en/latest/modules/agents/tools/custom_tools.html |
62c7ae8034a4-6 | """Searches the API for the query."""
return "Results"
search_api
Tool(name='search', description='search(query: str) -> str - Searches the API for the query.', args_schema=<class '__main__.SearchInput'>, return_direct=True, verbose=False, callback_manager=<langchain.callbacks.shared.SharedCallbackManager object at 0x12748c4c0>, func=<function search_api at 0x16bcf0ee0>, coroutine=None)
Custom Structured Tools#
If your functions require more structured arguments, you can use the StructuredTool class directly, or still subclass the BaseTool class.
StructuredTool dataclass#
To dynamically generate a structured tool from a given function, the fastest way to get started is with StructuredTool.from_function().
import requests
from langchain.tools import StructuredTool
def post_message(url: str, body: dict, parameters: Optional[dict] = None) -> str:
"""Sends a POST request to the given url with the given body and parameters."""
result = requests.post(url, json=body, params=parameters)
return f"Status: {result.status_code} - {result.text}"
tool = StructuredTool.from_function(post_message)
Subclassing the BaseTool#
The BaseTool automatically infers the schema from the _run method’s signature.
from typing import Optional, Type
from langchain.callbacks.manager import AsyncCallbackManagerForToolRun, CallbackManagerForToolRun
class CustomSearchTool(BaseTool):
name = "custom_search"
description = "useful for when you need to answer questions about current events" | https://python.langchain.com/en/latest/modules/agents/tools/custom_tools.html |
62c7ae8034a4-7 | description = "useful for when you need to answer questions about current events"

Using the decorator#
The tool decorator creates a structured tool automatically if the signature has multiple arguments.
import requests
from langchain.tools import tool
@tool
def post_message(url: str, body: dict, parameters: Optional[dict] = None) -> str:
"""Sends a POST request to the given url with the given body and parameters."""
result = requests.post(url, json=body, params=parameters)
return f"Status: {result.status_code} - {result.text}"
Modify existing tools#
Now, we show how to load existing tools and modify them directly. In the example below, we do something really simple and change the Search tool to have the name Google Search.
from langchain.agents import load_tools
tools = load_tools(["serpapi", "llm-math"], llm=llm)
tools[0].name = "Google Search"
agent = initialize_agent(tools, llm, agent=AgentType.ZERO_SHOT_REACT_DESCRIPTION, verbose=True)
agent.run("Who is Leo DiCaprio's girlfriend? What is her current age raised to the 0.43 power?")
> Entering new AgentExecutor chain...
I need to find out Leo DiCaprio's girlfriend's name and her age.
Action: Google Search
Action Input: "Leo DiCaprio girlfriend" | https://python.langchain.com/en/latest/modules/agents/tools/custom_tools.html |
62c7ae8034a4-9 | Action: Google Search
Action Input: "Leo DiCaprio girlfriend"
Observation: After rumours of a romance with Gigi Hadid, the Oscar winner has seemingly moved on. First being linked to the television personality in September 2022, it appears as if his "age bracket" has moved up. This follows his rumoured relationship with mere 19-year-old Eden Polani.
Thought:I still need to find out his current girlfriend's name and her age.
Action: Google Search
Action Input: "Leo DiCaprio current girlfriend age"
Observation: Leonardo DiCaprio has been linked with 19-year-old model Eden Polani, continuing the rumour that he doesn't date any women over the age of ...
Thought:I need to find out the age of Eden Polani.
Action: Calculator
Action Input: 19^(0.43)
Observation: Answer: 3.547023357958959
Thought:I now know the final answer.
Final Answer: The age of Leo DiCaprio's girlfriend raised to the 0.43 power is approximately 3.55.
> Finished chain.
"The age of Leo DiCaprio's girlfriend raised to the 0.43 power is approximately 3.55."
Defining the priorities among Tools#
When you made a Custom tool, you may want the Agent to use the custom tool more than normal tools.
For example, you made a custom tool, which gets information on music from your database. When a user wants information on songs, You want the Agent to use the custom tool more than the normal Search tool. But the Agent might prioritize a normal Search tool.
This can be accomplished by adding a statement such as Use this more than the normal search if the question is about Music, like 'who is the singer of yesterday?' or 'what is the most popular song in 2022?' to the description. | https://python.langchain.com/en/latest/modules/agents/tools/custom_tools.html |
62c7ae8034a4-10 | An example is below.
# Import things that are needed generically
from langchain.agents import initialize_agent, Tool
from langchain.agents import AgentType
from langchain.llms import OpenAI
from langchain import LLMMathChain, SerpAPIWrapper
search = SerpAPIWrapper()
tools = [
Tool(
name = "Search",
func=search.run,
description="useful for when you need to answer questions about current events"
),
Tool(
name="Music Search",
func=lambda x: "'All I Want For Christmas Is You' by Mariah Carey.", #Mock Function
description="A Music search engine. Use this more than the normal search if the question is about Music, like 'who is the singer of yesterday?' or 'what is the most popular song in 2022?'",
)
]
agent = initialize_agent(tools, OpenAI(temperature=0), agent=AgentType.ZERO_SHOT_REACT_DESCRIPTION, verbose=True)
agent.run("what is the most famous song of christmas")
> Entering new AgentExecutor chain...
I should use a music search engine to find the answer
Action: Music Search
Action Input: most famous song of christmas'All I Want For Christmas Is You' by Mariah Carey. I now know the final answer
Final Answer: 'All I Want For Christmas Is You' by Mariah Carey.
> Finished chain.
"'All I Want For Christmas Is You' by Mariah Carey."
Using tools to return directly#
Often, it can be desirable to have a tool output returned directly to the user, if it’s called. You can do this easily with LangChain by setting the return_direct flag for a tool to be True.
llm_math_chain = LLMMathChain(llm=llm)
tools = [ | https://python.langchain.com/en/latest/modules/agents/tools/custom_tools.html |
62c7ae8034a4-11 | llm_math_chain = LLMMathChain(llm=llm)
tools = [
Tool(
name="Calculator",
func=llm_math_chain.run,
description="useful for when you need to answer questions about math",
return_direct=True
)
]
llm = OpenAI(temperature=0)
agent = initialize_agent(tools, llm, agent=AgentType.ZERO_SHOT_REACT_DESCRIPTION, verbose=True)
agent.run("whats 2**.12")
> Entering new AgentExecutor chain...
I need to calculate this
Action: Calculator
Action Input: 2**.12Answer: 1.086734862526058
> Finished chain.
'Answer: 1.086734862526058'
Handling Tool Errors#
When a tool encounters an error and the exception is not caught, the agent will stop executing. If you want the agent to continue execution, you can raise a ToolException and set handle_tool_error accordingly.
When ToolException is thrown, the agent will not stop working, but will handle the exception according to the handle_tool_error variable of the tool, and the processing result will be returned to the agent as observation, and printed in red.
You can set handle_tool_error to True, set it a unified string value, or set it as a function. If it’s set as a function, the function should take a ToolException as a parameter and return a str value.
Please note that only raising a ToolException won’t be effective. You need to first set the handle_tool_error of the tool because its default value is False.
from langchain.schema import ToolException

Multi-Input Tools with a string format#
An alternative to the structured tool would be to use the regular Tool class and accept a single string. The tool would then have to handle the parsing logic to extract the relavent values from the text, which tightly couples the tool representation to the agent prompt. This is still useful if the underlying language model can’t reliabl generate structured schema.
Let’s take the multiplication function as an example. In order to use this, we will tell the agent to generate the “Action Input” as a comma-separated list of length two. We will then write a thin wrapper that takes a string, splits it into two around a comma, and passes both parsed sides as integers to the multiplication function.
from langchain.llms import OpenAI
from langchain.agents import initialize_agent, Tool
from langchain.agents import AgentType
Here is the multiplication function, as well as a wrapper to parse a string as input.
def multiplier(a, b):
return a * b
def parsing_multiplier(string):
a, b = string.split(",")
return multiplier(int(a), int(b))
llm = OpenAI(temperature=0)
tools = [
Tool(
name = "Multiplier",
func=parsing_multiplier,
description="useful for when you need to multiply two numbers together. The input to this tool should be a comma separated list of numbers of length two, representing the two numbers you want to multiply together. For example, `1,2` would be the input if you wanted to multiply 1 by 2."
