Vector store support for Cassandra (#6426)
This addresses #6291 adding support for using Cassandra (and compatible
databases, such as DataStax Astra DB) as a [Vector
Store](https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CASSANDRA/CEP-30%3A+Approximate+Nearest+Neighbor(ANN)+Vector+Search+via+Storage-Attached+Indexes).

A new class `Cassandra` is introduced, which complies with the contract
and interface for a vector store, along with the corresponding
integration test, a sample notebook and modified dependency toml.

Dependencies: the implementation relies on the library `cassio`, which
simplifies interacting with Cassandra for ML- and LLM-oriented
workloads. CassIO, in turn, uses the `cassandra-driver` low-lever
drivers to communicate with the database. The former is added as
optional dependency (+ in `extended_testing`), the latter was already in
the project.

Integration testing relies on a locally-running instance of Cassandra.
[Here](https://cassio.org/more_info/#use-a-local-vector-capable-cassandra)
a detailed description can be found on how to compile and run it (at the
time of writing the feature has not made it yet to a release).

During development of the integration tests, I added a new "fake
embedding" class for what I consider a more controlled way of testing
the MMR search method. Likewise, I had to amend what looked like a
glitch in the behaviour of `ConsistentFakeEmbeddings` whereby an
`embed_query` call would have bypassed storage of the requested text in
the class cache for use in later repeated invocations.

@dev2049 might be the right person to tag here for a review. Thank you!

Integrations Tests

Prepare

This repository contains functional tests for several search engines and databases. The tests aim to verify the correct behavior of the engines and databases according to their specifications and requirements.

To run some integration tests, such as tests located in tests/integration_tests/vectorstores/, you will need to install the following software:

  • Docker
  • Python 3.8.1 or later

We have optional group test_integration in the pyproject.toml file. This group should contain dependencies for the integration tests and can be installed using the command:

poetry install --with test_integration

Any new dependencies should be added by running:

# add package and install it after adding:
poetry add tiktoken@latest --group "test_integration" && poetry install --with test_integration

Before running any tests, you should start a specific Docker container that has all the necessary dependencies installed. For instance, we use the elasticsearch.yml container for test_elasticsearch.py:

cd tests/integration_tests/vectorstores/docker-compose
docker-compose -f elasticsearch.yml up

Prepare environment variables for local testing:

  • copy tests/.env.example to tests/.env
  • set variables in tests/.env file, e.g OPENAI_API_KEY

Additionally, it's important to note that some integration tests may require certain environment variables to be set, such as OPENAI_API_KEY. Be sure to set any required environment variables before running the tests to ensure they run correctly.

Recording HTTP interactions with pytest-vcr

Some of the integration tests in this repository involve making HTTP requests to external services. To prevent these requests from being made every time the tests are run, we use pytest-vcr to record and replay HTTP interactions.

When running tests in a CI/CD pipeline, you may not want to modify the existing cassettes. You can use the --vcr-record=none command-line option to disable recording new cassettes. Here's an example:

pytest --log-cli-level=10 tests/integration_tests/vectorstores/test_pinecone.py --vcr-record=none
pytest tests/integration_tests/vectorstores/test_elasticsearch.py --vcr-record=none

Run some tests with coverage:

pytest tests/integration_tests/vectorstores/test_elasticsearch.py --cov=langchain --cov-report=html
start "" htmlcov/index.html || open htmlcov/index.html
