| # Pinecone | |
| This page covers how to use the Pinecone ecosystem within LangChain. | |
| It is broken into two parts: installation and setup, and then references to specific Pinecone wrappers. | |
| ## Installation and Setup | |
| - Install the Python SDK with `pip install pinecone-client` | |
| ## Wrappers | |
| ### VectorStore | |
| There exists a wrapper around Pinecone indexes, allowing you to use it as a vectorstore, | |
| whether for semantic search or example selection. | |
| To import this vectorstore: | |
| ```python | |
| from langchain.vectorstores import Pinecone | |
| ``` | |
| For a more detailed walkthrough of the Pinecone wrapper, see [this notebook](../modules/indexes/examples/vectorstores.ipynb) | |
