This does not involve a separator, and will naively chunk input text at
the appropriate boundaries in token space.
This is helpful if we have strict token length limits that we need to
strictly follow the specified chunk size, and we can't use aggressive
separators like spaces to guarantee the absence of long strings.
CharacterTextSplitter will let these strings through without splitting
them, which could cause overflow errors downstream.
Splitting at arbitrary token boundaries is not ideal but is hopefully
mitigated by having a decent overlap quantity. Also this results in
chunks which has exact number of tokens desired, instead of sometimes
overcounting if we concatenate shorter strings.
Potentially also helps with #528.
# Problem
I noticed that in order to change the prefix of the prompt in the
`zero-shot-react-description` agent
we had to dig around to subset strings deep into the agent's attributes.
It requires the user to inspect a long chain of attributes and classes.
`initialize_agent -> AgentExecutor -> Agent -> LLMChain -> Prompt from
Agent.create_prompt`
``` python
agent = initialize_agent(
tools=tools,
llm=fake_llm,
agent="zero-shot-react-description"
)
prompt_str = agent.agent.llm_chain.prompt.template
new_prompt_str = change_prefix(prompt_str)
agent.agent.llm_chain.prompt.template = new_prompt_str
```
# Implemented Solution
`initialize_agent` accepts `**kwargs` but passes it to `AgentExecutor`
but not `ZeroShotAgent`, by simply giving the kwargs to the agent class
methods we can support changing the prefix and suffix for one agent
while allowing future agents to take advantage of `initialize_agent`.
```
agent = initialize_agent(
tools=tools,
llm=fake_llm,
agent="zero-shot-react-description",
agent_kwargs={"prefix": prefix, "suffix": suffix}
)
```
To be fair, this was before finding docs around custom agents here:
https://langchain.readthedocs.io/en/latest/modules/agents/examples/custom_agent.html?highlight=custom%20#custom-llmchain
but i find that my use case just needed to change the prefix a little.
# Changes
* Pass kwargs to Agent class method
* Added a test to check suffix and prefix

It's generally considered to be a good practice to pin dependencies to
prevent surprise breakages when a new version of a dependency is
released. This commit adds the ability to pin dependencies when loading
from LangChainHub.
Centralizing this logic and using urllib fixes an issue identified by
some windows users highlighted in this video -

The agents usually benefit from understanding what the data looks like
to be able to filter effectively. Sending just one row in the table info
allows the agent to understand the data before querying and get better
results.

* add implementations of `BaseCallbackHandler` to support tracing:
`SharedTracer` which is thread-safe and `Tracer` which is not and is
meant to be used locally.
* Tracers persist runs to locally running `langchain-server`

- This uses the faiss built-in `write_index` and `load_index` to save
and load faiss indexes locally
- Also fixes#674
- The save/load functions also use the faiss library, so I refactored
the dependency into a function
Big docs refactor! Motivation is to make it easier for people to find
resources they are looking for. To accomplish this, there are now three
main sections:
- Getting Started: steps for getting started, walking through most core
functionality
- Modules: these are different modules of functionality that langchain
provides. Each part here has a "getting started", "how to", "key
concepts" and "reference" section (except in a few select cases where it
didnt easily fit).
- Use Cases: this is to separate use cases (like summarization, question
answering, evaluation, etc) from the modules, and provide a different
entry point to the code base.
There is also a full reference section, as well as extra resources
(glossary, gallery, etc)

Add support for running your own HF pipeline locally. This would allow
you to get a lot more dynamic with what HF features and models you
support since you wouldn't be beholden to what is hosted in HF hub. You
could also do stuff with HF Optimum to quantize your models and stuff to
get pretty fast inference even running on a laptop.
