Batch update of alt text and title attributes for images in md/mdx files across repo (#15357)
**Description:** Batch update of alt text and title attributes for
images in `md` & `mdx` files across the repo using
[alttexter](https://github.com/jonathanalgar/alttexter)/[alttexter-ghclient](https://github.com/jonathanalgar/alttexter-ghclient)
(built using LangChain/LangSmith).

**Limitation:** cannot update `ipynb` files because of [this
issue](https://github.com/langchain-ai/langchain/pull/15357#issuecomment-1885037250).
Can revisit when Docusaurus is bumped to v3.

I checked all the generated alt texts and titles and didn't find any
technical inaccuracies. That's not to say they're _perfect_, but a lot
better than what's there currently.

image example:

You can see LangSmith traces for all the calls out to the LLM in the PRs
merged into this one:

* https://github.com/jonathanalgar/langchain/pull/6
* https://github.com/jonathanalgar/langchain/pull/4
* https://github.com/jonathanalgar/langchain/pull/3

I didn't add the following files to the PR as the images already have OK
alt texts:

*
27dca2d92f/docs/docs/integrations/providers/argilla.mdx (L3)
*
27dca2d92f/docs/docs/integrations/providers/apify.mdx (L11)

propositional-retrieval

This template demonstrates the multi-vector indexing strategy proposed by Chen, et. al.'s Dense X Retrieval: What Retrieval Granularity Should We Use?. The prompt, which you can try out on the hub, directs an LLM to generate de-contextualized "propositions" which can be vectorized to increase the retrieval accuracy. You can see the full definition in proposal_chain.py.

Diagram illustrating the multi-vector indexing strategy for information retrieval, showing the process from Wikipedia data through a Proposition-izer to FactoidWiki, and the retrieval of information units for a QA model.

Storage

For this demo, we index a simple academic paper using the RecursiveUrlLoader, and store all retriever information locally (using chroma and a bytestore stored on the local filesystem). You can modify the storage layer in storage.py.

Environment Setup

Set the OPENAI_API_KEY environment variable to access gpt-3.5 and the OpenAI Embeddings classes.

Indexing

Create the index by running the following:

poetry install
poetry run python propositional_retrieval/ingest.py

Usage

To use this package, you should first have the LangChain CLI installed:

pip install -U langchain-cli

To create a new LangChain project and install this as the only package, you can do:

langchain app new my-app --package propositional-retrieval

If you want to add this to an existing project, you can just run:

langchain app add propositional-retrieval

And add the following code to your server.py file:

from propositional_retrieval import chain

add_routes(app, chain, path="/propositional-retrieval")

(Optional) Let's now configure LangSmith. LangSmith will help us trace, monitor and debug LangChain applications. LangSmith is currently in private beta, you can sign up here. If you don't have access, you can skip this section

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:

langchain serve

This will start the FastAPI app with a server is running locally at http://localhost:8000

We can see all templates at http://127.0.0.1:8000/docs We can access the playground at http://127.0.0.1:8000/propositional-retrieval/playground

We can access the template from code with:

from langserve.client import RemoteRunnable

runnable = RemoteRunnable("http://localhost:8000/propositional-retrieval")
