# Google Search Wrapper
|
|
|
|
This page covers how to use the Google Search API within LangChain.
|
|
It is broken into two parts: installation and setup, and then references to the specific Google Search wrapper.
|
|
|
|
## Installation and Setup
|
|
- Install requirements with `pip install google-api-python-client`
|
|
- Set up a Custom Search Engine, following [these instructions](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/37083058/programmatically-searching-google-in-python-using-custom-search)
|
|
- Get an API Key and Custom Search Engine ID from the previous step, and set them as environment variables `GOOGLE_API_KEY` and `GOOGLE_CSE_ID` respectively
|
|
|
|
## Wrappers
|
|
|
|
### Utility
|
|
|
|
There exists a GoogleSearchAPIWrapper utility which wraps this API. To import this utility:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
from langchain.utilities import GoogleSearchAPIWrapper
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For a more detailed walkthrough of this wrapper, see [this notebook](../modules/agents/tools/examples/google_search.ipynb).
|
|
|
|
### Tool
|
|
|
|
You can also easily load this wrapper as a Tool (to use with an Agent).
|
|
You can do this with:
|
|
```python
|
|
from langchain.agents import load_tools
|
|
tools = load_tools(["google-search"])
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
