# neo4j-semantic-layer
This template is designed to implement an agent capable of interacting with a graph database like Neo4j through a semantic layer using OpenAI function calling.
The semantic layer equips the agent with a suite of robust tools, allowing it to interact with the graph databas based on the user's intent.
Learn more about the semantic layer template in the [corresponding blog post](https://medium.com/towards-data-science/enhancing-interaction-between-language-models-and-graph-databases-via-a-semantic-layer-0a78ad3eba49).
![Diagram illustrating the workflow of the Neo4j semantic layer with an agent interacting with tools like Information, Recommendation, and Memory, connected to a knowledge graph.](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/langchain-ai/langchain/master/templates/neo4j-semantic-layer/static/workflow.png "Neo4j Semantic Layer Workflow Diagram")
## Tools
The agent utilizes several tools to interact with the Neo4j graph database effectively:
1. **Information tool**:
- Retrieves data about movies or individuals, ensuring the agent has access to the latest and most relevant information.
2. **Recommendation Tool**:
- Provides movie recommendations based upon user preferences and input.
3. **Memory Tool**:
- Stores information about user preferences in the knowledge graph, allowing for a personalized experience over multiple interactions.
## Environment Setup
You need to define the following environment variables
```
OPENAI_API_KEY=<YOUR_OPENAI_API_KEY>
NEO4J_URI=<YOUR_NEO4J_URI>
NEO4J_USERNAME=<YOUR_NEO4J_USERNAME>
NEO4J_PASSWORD=<YOUR_NEO4J_PASSWORD>
```
## Populating with data
If you want to populate the DB with an example movie dataset, you can run `python ingest.py`.
The script import information about movies and their rating by users.
Additionally, the script creates two [fulltext indices](https://neo4j.com/docs/cypher-manual/current/indexes-for-full-text-search/), which are used to map information from user input to the database.
## Usage
To use this package, you should first have the LangChain CLI installed:
```shell
pip install -U "langchain-cli[serve]"
```
To create a new LangChain project and install this as the only package, you can do:
```shell
langchain app new my-app --package neo4j-semantic-layer
```
If you want to add this to an existing project, you can just run:
```shell
langchain app add neo4j-semantic-layer
```
And add the following code to your `server.py` file:
```python
from neo4j_semantic_layer import agent_executor as neo4j_semantic_agent
add_routes(app, neo4j_semantic_agent, path="/neo4j-semantic-layer")
```
(Optional) Let's now configure LangSmith.
LangSmith will help us trace, monitor and debug LangChain applications.
You can sign up for LangSmith [here](https://smith.langchain.com/).
If you don't have access, you can skip this section
```shell
export LANGCHAIN_TRACING_V2=true
export LANGCHAIN_API_KEY=<your-api-key>
export LANGCHAIN_PROJECT=<your-project> # if not specified, defaults to "default"
```
If you are inside this directory, then you can spin up a LangServe instance directly by:
```shell
langchain serve
```
This will start the FastAPI app with a server is running locally at
[http://localhost:8000](http://localhost:8000)
We can see all templates at [http://127.0.0.1:8000/docs](http://127.0.0.1:8000/docs)
We can access the playground at [http://127.0.0.1:8000/neo4j-semantic-layer/playground](http://127.0.0.1:8000/neo4j-semantic-layer/playground)
We can access the template from code with:
```python
from langserve.client import RemoteRunnable
runnable = RemoteRunnable("http://localhost:8000/neo4j-semantic-layer")
```
