This is useful for logging, monitoring, streaming, and other tasks.You can subscribe to these events by using the callbacks argument available throughout the API. This argument is list of handler objects, which are expected to implement one or more of the methods described below in more detail.Callback handlers​CallbackHandlers are objects that implement the CallbackHandler interface, which has a method for each event that can be subscribed to. The CallbackManager will call the appropriate method on each handler when the event is triggered.class BaseCallbackHandler: """Base callback handler that can be used to handle callbacks from langchain.""" def on_llm_start( self, serialized: Dict[str, Any], prompts: List[str], **kwargs: Any ) -> Any: """Run when LLM starts running.""" def on_chat_model_start( self, serialized: Dict[str, Any], messages: List[List[BaseMessage]], **kwargs: Any ) -> Any: """Run when Chat Model starts running.""" def on_llm_new_token(self, token: str, **kwargs: Any) -> Any: """Run on new LLM

These are available in the langchain/callbacks module. The most basic handler is the StdOutCallbackHandler, which simply logs all events to stdout.Note when the verbose flag on the object is set to true, the StdOutCallbackHandler will be invoked even without being explicitly passed in.from langchain.callbacks import StdOutCallbackHandlerfrom langchain.chains import LLMChainfrom langchain.llms import OpenAIfrom langchain.prompts import PromptTemplatehandler = StdOutCallbackHandler()llm = OpenAI()prompt = PromptTemplate.from_template("1 + {number} = ")# Constructor callback: First, let's explicitly set the StdOutCallbackHandler when initializing our chainchain = LLMChain(llm=llm, prompt=prompt, callbacks=[handler])chain.run(number=2)# Use verbose flag: Then, let's use the `verbose` flag to achieve the same resultchain = LLMChain(llm=llm, prompt=prompt, verbose=True)chain.run(number=2)# Request callbacks: Finally, let's use the request `callbacks` to achieve the same resultchain = LLMChain(llm=llm, prompt=prompt)chain.run(number=2, callbacks=[handler]) > Entering new LLMChain

Prompt after formatting: 1 + 2 = > Finished chain. > Entering new LLMChain chain... Prompt after formatting: 1 + 2 = > Finished chain. '\n\n3'Where to pass in callbacks​The callbacks argument is available on most objects throughout the API (Chains, Models, Tools, Agents, etc.) in two different places:Constructor callbacks: defined in the constructor, eg. LLMChain(callbacks=[handler], tags=['a-tag']), which will be used for all calls made on that object, and will be scoped to that object only, eg. if you pass a handler to the LLMChain constructor, it will not be used by the Model attached to that chain.Request callbacks: defined in the run()/apply() methods used for issuing a request, eg. chain.run(input, callbacks=[handler]), which will be used for that specific request only, and all sub-requests that it contains (eg. a call to an LLMChain triggers a call to a Model, which uses the same handler passed in the call() method).The verbose argument is available on most objects throughout the API (Chains, Models, Tools, Agents, etc.) as a constructor argument, eg. LLMChain(verbose=True), and it is equivalent to passing a ConsoleCallbackHandler to the callbacks argument of that object and all child objects. This is useful for debugging, as it will log all events to

d9c61ea199c9-5
that object and all child objects. This is useful for debugging, as it will log all events to the console.When do you want to use each of these?​Constructor callbacks are most useful for use cases such as logging, monitoring, etc., which are not specific to a single request, but rather to the entire chain. For example, if you want to log all the requests made to an LLMChain, you would pass a handler to the constructor.Request callbacks are most useful for use cases such as streaming, where you want to stream the output of a single request to a specific websocket connection, or other similar use cases. For example, if you want to stream the output of a single request to a websocket, you would pass a handler to the call() methodPreviousToolkitsNextAsync callbacksCommunityDiscordTwitterGitHubPythonJS/TSMoreHomepageBlogCopyright © 2023 LangChain, Inc.

In this case, the callbacks will be scoped to that particular object. However, in many cases, it is advantageous to pass in handlers instead when running the object. When we pass through CallbackHandlers using the callbacks keyword arg when executing an run, those callbacks will be issued by all nested objects involved in the execution. For example, when a handler is passed through to an Agent, it will be used for all callbacks related to the agent and all the objects involved in the agent's execution, in this case, the Tools, LLMChain, and LLM.This prevents us from having to manually attach the handlers to each individual nested object.from typing import Dict, Union, Any, Listfrom langchain.callbacks.base import BaseCallbackHandlerfrom langchain.schema import AgentActionfrom langchain.agents import AgentType, initialize_agent, load_toolsfrom langchain.callbacks import tracing_enabledfrom langchain.llms import OpenAI# First, define custom callback handler implementationsclass MyCustomHandlerOne(BaseCallbackHandler): def on_llm_start( self, serialized: Dict[str, Any], prompts: List[str], **kwargs: Any ) -> Any: print(f"on_llm_start {serialized['name']}") def on_llm_new_token(self, token: str, **kwargs: Any) -> Any:

This makes it challenging to ship reliable applications to production, where repeatable, useful outcomes across diverse inputs are a minimum requirement. Tests help demonstrate each component in an LLM application can produce the required or expected functionality. These tests also safeguard against regressions while you improve interconnected pieces of an integrated system. However, measuring the quality of generated text can be challenging. It can be hard to agree on the right set of metrics for your application, and it can be difficult to translate those into better performance. Furthermore, it's common to lack sufficient evaluation data to adequately test the range of inputs and expected outputs for each component when you're just getting started. The LangChain community is building open source tools and guides to help address these challenges.LangChain exposes different types of evaluators for common types of evaluation.

How do you know which will generate "better" results?One automated way to predict the preferred configuration is to use a PairwiseStringEvaluator like the PairwiseStringEvalChain[1]. This chain prompts an LLM to select which output is preferred, given a specific input.For this evaluation, we will need 3 things:An evaluatorA dataset of inputs2 (or more) LLMs, Chains, or Agents to compareThen we will aggregate the restults to determine the preferred model.Step 1. Create the Evaluator​In this example, you will use gpt-4 to select which output is preferred.from langchain.chat_models import ChatOpenAIfrom langchain.evaluation.comparison import PairwiseStringEvalChainllm = ChatOpenAI(model="gpt-4")eval_chain = PairwiseStringEvalChain.from_llm(llm=llm)Step 2.

In some applications, like chatbots, it is essential to remember previous interactions, both in the short and long-term. The Memory class does exactly that.LangChain provides memory components in two forms. First, LangChain provides helper utilities for managing and manipulating previous chat messages. These are designed to be modular and useful regardless of how they are used.
https://python.langchain.com/docs/modules/memory/
cfa9f91940ff-2
Secondly, LangChain provides easy ways to incorporate these utilities into chains.Get started​Memory involves keeping a concept of state around throughout a user's interactions with an language model. A user's interactions with a language model are captured in the concept of ChatMessages, so this boils down to ingesting, capturing, transforming and extracting knowledge from a sequence of chat messages. There are many different ways to do this, each of which exists as its own memory type.In general, for each type of memory there are two ways to understanding using memory. These are the standalone functions which extract information from a sequence of messages, and then there is the way you can use this type of memory in a chain.Memory can return multiple pieces of information (for example, the most recent N messages and a summary of all previous messages). The returned information can either be a string or a list of messages.We will walk through the simplest form of memory: "buffer" memory, which just involves keeping a buffer of all prior messages. We will show how to use the modular utility functions here, then show how it can be used in a chain (both returning a string as well as a list of messages).ChatMessageHistory​One of the core utility classes underpinning most (if not all) memory modules is the ChatMessageHistory class. This is a super lightweight wrapper which exposes convenience methods for saving Human messages, AI messages, and then fetching them all.You may want to use this class directly if you are managing memory outside of a chain.from langchain.memory import ChatMessageHistoryhistory = ChatMessageHistory()history.add_user_message("hi!")history.add_ai_message("whats up?")history.messages [HumanMessage(content='hi!', additional_kwargs={}), AIMessage(content='whats up?', additional_kwargs={})]ConversationBufferMemory​We now show how to use this simple concept in a chain. We first showcase

now show how to use this simple concept in a chain. We first showcase ConversationBufferMemory which is just a wrapper around ChatMessageHistory that extracts the messages in a variable.We can first extract it as a string.from langchain.memory import ConversationBufferMemorymemory = ConversationBufferMemory()memory.chat_memory.add_user_message("hi!")memory.chat_memory.add_ai_message("whats up?")memory.load_memory_variables({}) {'history': 'Human: hi!\nAI: whats up?'}We can also get the history as a list of messagesmemory = ConversationBufferMemory(return_messages=True)memory.chat_memory.add_user_message("hi!")memory.chat_memory.add_ai_message("whats up?")memory.load_memory_variables({}) {'history': [HumanMessage(content='hi!', additional_kwargs={}), AIMessage(content='whats up?', additional_kwargs={})]}Using in a chain​Finally, let's take a look at using this in a chain (setting verbose=True so we can see the prompt).from langchain.llms import OpenAIfrom langchain.chains import ConversationChainllm = OpenAI(temperature=0)conversation = ConversationChain( llm=llm, verbose=True, memory=ConversationBufferMemory())conversation.predict(input="Hi there!") > Entering new ConversationChain chain...

Finished chain. " Sure! I'm an AI created to help people with their everyday tasks. I'm programmed to understand natural language and provide helpful information. I'm also constantly learning and updating my knowledge base so I can provide more accurate and helpful answers."Saving Message History​You may often have to save messages, and then load them to use again. This can be done easily by first converting the messages to normal python dictionaries, saving those (as json or something) and then loading those. Here is an example of doing that.import jsonfrom langchain.memory import ChatMessageHistoryfrom langchain.schema import messages_from_dict, messages_to_dicthistory = ChatMessageHistory()history.add_user_message("hi!")history.add_ai_message("whats up?")dicts = messages_to_dict(history.messages)dicts [{'type': 'human', 'data': {'content': 'hi!', 'additional_kwargs': {}}}, {'type': 'ai', 'data': {'content': 'whats up?', 'additional_kwargs': {}}}]new_messages = messages_from_dict(dicts)new_messages [HumanMessage(content='hi!', additional_kwargs={}), AIMessage(content='whats up?', additional_kwargs={})]And that's it for the getting started!

This notebook covers how to do that.For this notebook, we will add a custom memory type to ConversationChain. In order to add a custom memory class, we need to import the base memory class and subclass it.from langchain import OpenAI, ConversationChainfrom langchain.schema import BaseMemoryfrom pydantic import BaseModelfrom typing import List, Dict, AnyIn this example, we will write a custom memory class that uses spacy to extract entities and save information about them in a simple hash table. Then, during the conversation, we will look at the input text, extract any entities, and put any information about them into the context.Please note that this implementation is pretty simple and brittle and probably not useful in a production setting. Its purpose is to showcase that you can add custom memory implementations.For this, we will need spacy.# !pip install spacy# !python -m spacy download en_core_web_lgimport spacynlp =

It keeps a buffer of recent interactions in memory, but rather than just completely flushing old interactions it compiles them into a summary and uses both. Unlike the previous implementation though, it uses token length rather than number of interactions to determine when to flush interactions.Let's first walk through how to use the utilitiesfrom langchain.memory import ConversationSummaryBufferMemoryfrom langchain.llms import OpenAIllm = OpenAI()memory = ConversationSummaryBufferMemory(llm=llm, max_token_limit=10)memory.save_context({"input": "hi"}, {"output": "whats up"})memory.save_context({"input": "not much you"}, {"output": "not much"})memory.load_memory_variables({}) {'history': 'System: \nThe human says "hi", and the AI responds with "whats up".\nHuman: not much you\nAI: not much'}We can also get the history as a list of messages (this is useful if you are using this with a chat model).memory = ConversationSummaryBufferMemory( llm=llm,

This type of memory creates a summary of the conversation over time. This can be useful for condensing information from the conversation over time.

Conversation summary memory summarizes the conversation as it happens and stores the current summary in memory. This memory can then be used to inject the summary of the conversation so far into a prompt/chain. This memory is most useful for longer conversations, where keeping the past message history in the prompt verbatim would take up too many tokens.Let's first explore the basic functionality of this type of memory.from langchain.memory import ConversationSummaryMemory, ChatMessageHistoryfrom langchain.llms import OpenAImemory = ConversationSummaryMemory(llm=OpenAI(temperature=0))memory.save_context({"input": "hi"}, {"output": "whats up"})memory.load_memory_variables({}) {'history': '\nThe human greets the AI, to which the AI responds.'}We can also get the history as a list of messages (this is useful if you are using this with a chat model).memory = ConversationSummaryMemory(llm=OpenAI(temperature=0), return_messages=True)memory.save_context({"input": "hi"}, {"output": "whats up"})memory.load_memory_variables({}) {'history': [SystemMessage(content='\nThe human greets the AI, to which the AI responds.', additional_kwargs={})]}We can also utilize the predict_new_summary method directly.messages = memory.chat_memory.messagesprevious_summary = ""memory.predict_new_summary(messages, previous_summary) '\nThe human greets the AI, to which the AI responds.'Initializing with messages​If you have messages outside this class, you can easily initialize the class with ChatMessageHistory. During loading, a summary will be calculated.history = ChatMessageHistory()history.add_user_message("hi")history.add_ai_message("hi there!")memory = ConversationSummaryMemory.from_messages(llm=OpenAI(temperature=0), chat_memory=history, return_messages=True)memory.buffer '\nThe human greets the AI, to which the AI responds with
