Conversational Retriever Chain
Code Understanding#
Overview
LangChain is a useful tool designed to parse GitHub code repositories. By leveraging VectorStores, Conversational RetrieverChain, and GPT-4, it can answer questions in the context of an entire GitHub repository or generate new code. This documentation page outlines the essential components of the system and guides using LangChain for better code comprehension, contextual question answering, and code generation in GitHub repositories.
Conversational Retriever Chain#
Conversational RetrieverChain is a retrieval-focused system that interacts with the data stored in a VectorStore. Utilizing advanced techniques, like context-aware filtering and ranking, it retrieves the most relevant code snippets and information for a given user query. Conversational RetrieverChain is engineered to deliver high-quality, pertinent results while considering conversation history and context.
LangChain Workflow for Code Understanding and Generation
Index the code base: Clone the target repository, load all files within, chunk the files, and execute the indexing process. Optionally, you can skip this step and use an already indexed dataset.
Embedding and Code Store: Code snippets are embedded using a code-aware embedding model and stored in a VectorStore.
Query Understanding: GPT-4 processes user queries, grasping the context and extracting relevant details.
Construct the Retriever: Conversational RetrieverChain searches the VectorStore to identify the most relevant code snippets for a given query.
Build the Conversational Chain: Customize the retriever settings and define any user-defined filters as needed.
Ask questions: Define a list of questions to ask about the codebase, and then use the ConversationalRetrievalChain to generate context-aware answers. The LLM (GPT-4) generates comprehensive, context-aware answers based on retrieved code snippets and conversation history.

Summarization#
Conceptual Guide
Summarization involves creating a smaller summary of multiple longer documents.
This can be useful for distilling long documents into the core pieces of information.
The recommended way to get started using a summarization chain is:
from langchain.chains.summarize import load_summarize_chain
chain = load_summarize_chain(llm, chain_type="map_reduce")
chain.run(docs)
The following resources exist:

Querying Tabular Data#
Conceptual Guide
Lots of data and information is stored in tabular data, whether it be csvs, excel sheets, or SQL tables.
This page covers all resources available in LangChain for working with data in this format.
Document Loading#
If you have text data stored in a tabular format, you may want to load the data into a Document and then index it as you would
other text/unstructured data. For this, you should use a document loader like the CSVLoader
and then you should create an index over that data, and query it that way.
Querying#
If you have more numeric tabular data, or have a large amount of data and don’t want to index it, you should get started
by looking at various chains and agents we have for dealing with this data.
Chains#
If you are just getting started, and you have relatively small/simple tabular data, you should get started with chains.
Chains are a sequence of predetermined steps, so they are good to get started with as they give you more control and let you
understand what is happening better.
SQL Database Chain
Agents#
Agents are more complex, and involve multiple queries to the LLM to understand what to do.
The downside of agents are that you have less control. The upside is that they are more powerful,
which allows you to use them on larger databases and more complex schemas.

Question answering over a group chat messages#
In this tutorial, we are going to use Langchain + Deep Lake with GPT4 to semantically search and ask questions over a group chat.
View a working demo here
1. Install required packages#
!python3 -m pip install --upgrade langchain deeplake openai tiktoken
2. Add API keys#
import os
import getpass
from langchain.document_loaders import PyPDFLoader, TextLoader
from langchain.embeddings.openai import OpenAIEmbeddings
from langchain.text_splitter import RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter, CharacterTextSplitter
from langchain.vectorstores import DeepLake
from langchain.chains import ConversationalRetrievalChain, RetrievalQA
from langchain.chat_models import ChatOpenAI
from langchain.llms import OpenAI
os.environ['OPENAI_API_KEY'] = getpass.getpass('OpenAI API Key:')
os.environ['ACTIVELOOP_TOKEN'] = getpass.getpass('Activeloop Token:')
os.environ['ACTIVELOOP_ORG'] = getpass.getpass('Activeloop Org:')
org = os.environ['ACTIVELOOP_ORG']
embeddings = OpenAIEmbeddings()
dataset_path = 'hub://' + org + '/data'
2. Create sample data#
You can generate a sample group chat conversation using ChatGPT with this prompt:
Generate a group chat conversation with three friends talking about their day, referencing real places and fictional names. Make it funny and as detailed as possible.
I’ve already generated such a chat in messages.txt. We can keep it simple and use this for our example.
3. Ingest chat embeddings#
3. Ingest chat embeddings#
We load the messages in the text file, chunk and upload to ActiveLoop Vector store.
with open("messages.txt") as f:
    state_of_the_union = f.read()
text_splitter = CharacterTextSplitter(chunk_size=1000, chunk_overlap=0)
pages = text_splitter.split_text(state_of_the_union)
text_splitter = RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter(chunk_size=1000, chunk_overlap=100)
texts = text_splitter.create_documents(pages)
print (texts)
dataset_path = 'hub://'+org+'/data'
embeddings = OpenAIEmbeddings()
db = DeepLake.from_documents(texts, embeddings, dataset_path=dataset_path, overwrite=True)
4. Ask questions#
Now we can ask a question and get an answer back with a semantic search:
db = DeepLake(dataset_path=dataset_path, read_only=True, embedding_function=embeddings)
retriever = db.as_retriever()
retriever.search_kwargs['distance_metric'] = 'cos'
retriever.search_kwargs['k'] = 4
qa = RetrievalQA.from_chain_type(llm=OpenAI(), chain_type="stuff", retriever=retriever, return_source_documents=False)
# What was the restaurant the group was talking about called?
query = input("Enter query:")
# The Hungry Lobster
ans = qa({"query": query})
print(ans)

QA Generation#
This notebook shows how to use the QAGenerationChain to come up with question-answer pairs over a specific document.
This is important because often times you may not have data to evaluate your question-answer system over, so this is a cheap and lightweight way to generate it!
from langchain.document_loaders import TextLoader
loader = TextLoader("../../modules/state_of_the_union.txt")
doc = loader.load()[0]
from langchain.chat_models import ChatOpenAI
from langchain.chains import QAGenerationChain
chain = QAGenerationChain.from_llm(ChatOpenAI(temperature = 0))
qa = chain.run(doc.page_content)
qa[1]
{'question': 'What is the U.S. Department of Justice doing to combat the crimes of Russian oligarchs?',

Agent Benchmarking: Search + Calculator#
Here we go over how to benchmark performance of an agent on tasks where it has access to a calculator and a search tool.
It is highly reccomended that you do any evaluation/benchmarking with tracing enabled. See here for an explanation of what tracing is and how to set it up.
# Comment this out if you are NOT using tracing
import os
os.environ["LANGCHAIN_HANDLER"] = "langchain"
Loading the data#
First, let’s load the data.
from langchain.evaluation.loading import load_dataset
dataset = load_dataset("agent-search-calculator")
Setting up a chain#
Now we need to load an agent capable of answering these questions.
from langchain.llms import OpenAI
from langchain.chains import LLMMathChain
from langchain.agents import initialize_agent, Tool, load_tools
from langchain.agents import AgentType
tools = load_tools(['serpapi', 'llm-math'], llm=OpenAI(temperature=0))
agent = initialize_agent(tools, OpenAI(temperature=0), agent=AgentType.ZERO_SHOT_REACT_DESCRIPTION, verbose=True)
Make a prediction#
First, we can make predictions one datapoint at a time. Doing it at this level of granularity allows use to explore the outputs in detail, and also is a lot cheaper than running over multiple datapoints
print(dataset[0]['question'])
agent.run(dataset[0]['question'])
Make many predictions#
Now we can make predictions
agent.run(dataset[4]['question'])
predictions = []
predicted_dataset = []
error_dataset = []
for data in dataset:
predictions = []
predicted_dataset = []
error_dataset = []
for data in dataset:
    new_data = {"input": data["question"], "answer": data["answer"]}
    try:
        predictions.append(agent(new_data))
        predicted_dataset.append(new_data)
    except Exception as e:
        predictions.append({"output": str(e), **new_data})
        error_dataset.append(new_data)
Evaluate performance#
Now we can evaluate the predictions. The first thing we can do is look at them by eye.
predictions[0]
Next, we can use a language model to score them programatically
from langchain.evaluation.qa import QAEvalChain
llm = OpenAI(temperature=0)
eval_chain = QAEvalChain.from_llm(llm)
graded_outputs = eval_chain.evaluate(dataset, predictions, question_key="question", prediction_key="output")
We can add in the graded output to the predictions dict and then get a count of the grades.
for i, prediction in enumerate(predictions):
    prediction['grade'] = graded_outputs[i]['text']
from collections import Counter
Counter([pred['grade'] for pred in predictions])
We can also filter the datapoints to the incorrect examples and look at them.
incorrect = [pred for pred in predictions if pred['grade'] == " INCORRECT"]
incorrect

Indexes#
Note
Conceptual Guide
Indexes refer to ways to structure documents so that LLMs can best interact with them.
This module contains utility functions for working with documents, different types of indexes, and then examples for using those indexes in chains.
The most common way that indexes are used in chains is in a “retrieval” step.
This step refers to taking a user’s query and returning the most relevant documents.
We draw this distinction because (1) an index can be used for other things besides retrieval, and (2) retrieval can use other logic besides an index to find relevant documents.
We therefore have a concept of a “Retriever” interface - this is the interface that most chains work with.
Most of the time when we talk about indexes and retrieval we are talking about indexing and retrieving unstructured data (like text documents).
For interacting with structured data (SQL tables, etc) or APIs, please see the corresponding use case sections for links to relevant functionality.
The primary index and retrieval types supported by LangChain are currently centered around vector databases, and therefore
a lot of the functionality we dive deep on those topics.
For an overview of everything related to this, please see the below notebook for getting started:

Prompts#
Note
Conceptual Guide
The new way of programming models is through prompts.
A “prompt” refers to the input to the model.
This input is rarely hard coded, but rather is often constructed from multiple components.
A PromptTemplate is responsible for the construction of this input.
LangChain provides several classes and functions to make constructing and working with prompts easy.
This section of documentation is split into four sections:
LLM Prompt Templates
How to use PromptTemplates to prompt Language Models.
Chat Prompt Templates
How to use PromptTemplates to prompt Chat Models.
Example Selectors
Often times it is useful to include examples in prompts.
These examples can be hardcoded, but it is often more powerful if they are dynamically selected.
This section goes over example selection.
Output Parsers
Language models (and Chat Models) output text.
But many times you may want to get more structured information than just text back.
This is where output parsers come in.
Output Parsers are responsible for (1) instructing the model how output should be formatted,
(2) parsing output into the desired formatting (including retrying if necessary).
