Was preparing for a demo project of NebulaGraphQAChain to find out the
prompt needed to be optimized a little bit.
Please @hwchase17 kindly help review.
Thanks!
### Overview
This PR aims at building on #4378, expanding the capabilities and
building on top of the `cassIO` library to interface with the database
(as opposed to using the core drivers directly).
Usage of `cassIO` (a library abstracting Cassandra access for
ML/GenAI-specific purposes) is already established since #6426 was
merged, so no new dependencies are introduced.
In the same spirit, we try to uniform the interface for using Cassandra
instances throughout LangChain: all our appreciation of the work by
@jj701 notwithstanding, who paved the way for this incremental work
(thank you!), we identified a few reasons for changing the way a
`CassandraChatMessageHistory` is instantiated. Advocating a syntax
change is something we don't take lighthearted way, so we add some
explanations about this below.
Additionally, this PR expands on integration testing, enables use of
Cassandra's native Time-to-Live (TTL) features and improves the phrasing
around the notebook example and the short "integrations" documentation
paragraph.
We would kindly request @hwchase to review (since this is an elaboration
and proposed improvement of #4378 who had the same reviewer).
### About the __init__ breaking changes
There are
[many](https://docs.datastax.com/en/developer/python-driver/3.28/api/cassandra/cluster/)
options when creating the `Cluster` object, and new ones might be added
at any time. Choosing some of them and exposing them as `__init__`
parameters `CassandraChatMessageHistory` will prove to be insufficient
for at least some users.
On the other hand, working through `kwargs` or adding a long, long list
of arguments to `__init__` is not a desirable option either. For this
reason, (as done in #6426), we propose that whoever instantiates the
Chat Message History class provide a Cassandra `Session` object, ready
to use. This also enables easier injection of mocks and usage of
Cassandra-compatible connections (such as those to the cloud database
DataStax Astra DB, obtained with a different set of init parameters than
`contact_points` and `port`).
We feel that a breaking change might still be acceptable since LangChain
is at `0.*`. However, while maintaining that the approach we propose
will be more flexible in the future, room could be made for a
"compatibility layer" that respects the current init method. Honestly,
we would to that only if there are strong reasons for it, as that would
entail an additional maintenance burden.
### Other changes
We propose to remove the keyspace creation from the class code for two
reasons: first, production Cassandra instances often employ RBAC so that
the database user reading/writing from tables does not necessarily (and
generally shouldn't) have permission to create keyspaces, and second
that programmatic keyspace creation is not a best practice (it should be
done more or less manually, with extra care about schema mismatched
among nodes, etc). Removing this (usually unnecessary) operation from
the `__init__` path would also improve initialization performance
(shorter time).
We suggest, likewise, to remove the `__del__` method (which would close
the database connection), for the following reason: it is the
recommended best practice to create a single Cassandra `Session` object
throughout an application (it is a resource-heavy object capable to
handle concurrency internally), so in case Cassandra is used in other
ways by the app there is the risk of truncating the connection for all
usages when the history instance is destroyed. Moreover, the `Session`
object, in typical applications, is best left to garbage-collect itself
automatically.
As mentioned above, we defer the actual database I/O to the `cassIO`
library, which is designed to encode practices optimized for LLM
applications (among other) without the need to expose LangChain
developers to the internals of CQL (Cassandra Query Language). CassIO is
already employed by the LangChain's Vector Store support for Cassandra.
We added a few more connection options in the companion notebook example
(most notably, Astra DB) to encourage usage by anyone who cannot run
their own Cassandra cluster.
We surface the `ttl_seconds` option for automatic handling of an
expiration time to chat history messages, a likely useful feature given
that very old messages generally may lose their importance.
We elaborated a bit more on the integration testing (Time-to-live,
separation of "session ids", ...).
### Remarks from linter & co.
We reinstated `cassio` as a dependency both in the "optional" group and
in the "integration testing" group of `pyproject.toml`. This might not
be the right thing do to, in which case the author of this PR offer his
apologies (lack of confidence with Poetry - happy to be pointed in the
right direction, though!).
During linter tests, we were hit by some errors which appear unrelated
to the code in the PR. We left them here and report on them here for
awareness:
```
langchain/vectorstores/mongodb_atlas.py:137: error: Argument 1 to "insert_many" of "Collection" has incompatible type "List[Dict[str, Sequence[object]]]"; expected "Iterable[Union[MongoDBDocumentType, RawBSONDocument]]" [arg-type]
langchain/vectorstores/mongodb_atlas.py:186: error: Argument 1 to "aggregate" of "Collection" has incompatible type "List[object]"; expected "Sequence[Mapping[str, Any]]" [arg-type]
langchain/vectorstores/qdrant.py:16: error: Name "grpc" is not defined [name-defined]
langchain/vectorstores/qdrant.py:19: error: Name "grpc" is not defined [name-defined]
langchain/vectorstores/qdrant.py:20: error: Name "grpc" is not defined [name-defined]
langchain/vectorstores/qdrant.py:22: error: Name "grpc" is not defined [name-defined]
langchain/vectorstores/qdrant.py:23: error: Name "grpc" is not defined [name-defined]
```
In the same spirit, we observe that to even get `import langchain` run,
it seems that a `pip install bs4` is missing from the minimal package
installation path.
Thank you!
If I upload a dataset with a single input and output column, we should
be able to let the chain prepare the input without having to maintain a
strict dataset format.
# Adding support for async (_acall) for VertexAICommon LLM
This PR implements the `_acall` method under `_VertexAICommon`. Because
VertexAI itself does not provide an async interface, I implemented it
via a ThreadPoolExecutor that can delegate execution of VertexAI calls
to other threads.

## Who can review?
Community members can review the PR once tests pass. Tag
maintainers/contributors who might be interested:

## Description

### log_and_data_dir
`AwaDB.__init__()` accepts a parameter named `log_and_data_dir`. But
`AwaDB.from_texts()` and `AwaDB.from_documents()` accept a parameter
named `logging_and_data_dir`. This inconsistency in this parameter name
can lead to confusion on the part of the caller.
This PR renames `logging_and_data_dir` to `log_and_data_dir` to make all
functions consistent with the constructor.
### embedding
`AwaDB.__init__()` accepts a parameter named `embedding_model`. But
`AwaDB.from_texts()` and `AwaDB.from_documents()` accept a parameter
named `embeddings`. This inconsistency in this parameter name can lead
to confusion on the part of the caller.
This PR renames `embedding_model` to `embeddings` to make AwaDB's
constructor consistent with the classmethod "constructors" as specified
by `VectorStore` abstract base class.
A user has been testing the Apify integration inside langchain and he
was not able to run saved Actor tasks.
This PR adds support for calling saved Actor tasks on the Apify platform
to the existing integration. The structure of very similar to the one of
calling Actors.

Distance-based vector database retrieval embeds (represents) queries in
high-dimensional space and finds similar embedded documents based on
"distance". But, retrieval may produce difference results with subtle
changes in query wording or if the embeddings do not capture the
semantics of the data well. Prompt engineering / tuning is sometimes
done to manually address these problems, but can be tedious.
The `MultiQueryRetriever` automates the process of prompt tuning by
using an LLM to generate multiple queries from different perspectives
for a given user input query. For each query, it retrieves a set of
relevant documents and takes the unique union across all queries to get
a larger set of potentially relevant documents. By generating multiple
perspectives on the same question, the `MultiQueryRetriever` might be
able to overcome some of the limitations of the distance-based retrieval
and get a richer set of results.

#### Summary
A new approach to loading source code is implemented:
Each top-level function and class in the code is loaded into separate
documents. Then, an additional document is created with the top-level
code, but without the already loaded functions and classes.
This could improve the accuracy of QA chains over source code.
For instance, having this script:
```
class MyClass:
def __init__(self, name):
self.name = name
def greet(self):
print(f"Hello, {self.name}!")
def main():
name = input("Enter your name: ")
obj = MyClass(name)
obj.greet()
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
```
The loader will create three documents with this content:
First document:
```
class MyClass:
def __init__(self, name):
self.name = name
def greet(self):
print(f"Hello, {self.name}!")
```
Second document:
```
def main():
name = input("Enter your name: ")
obj = MyClass(name)
obj.greet()
```
Third document:
```
# Code for: class MyClass:
# Code for: def main():
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
```
A threshold parameter is added to control whether small scripts are
split in this way or not.
At this moment, only Python and JavaScript are supported. The
appropriate parser is determined by examining the file extension.
#### Tests
This PR adds:
- Unit tests
- Integration tests
#### Dependencies
Only one dependency was added as optional (needed for the JavaScript
parser).
#### Documentation
A notebook is added showing how the loader can be used.
#### Who can review?
