Convex
======

LangChain.js supports [Convex](https://convex.dev/) as a [vector store](https://docs.convex.dev/vector-search), and supports the standard similarity search.

Setup[​](#setup "Direct link to Setup")
---------------------------------------

### Create project[​](#create-project "Direct link to Create project")

Get a working [Convex](https://docs.convex.dev/) project set up, for example by using:

    npm create convex@latest

### Add database accessors[​](#add-database-accessors "Direct link to Add database accessors")

Add query and mutation helpers to `convex/langchain/db.ts`:

convex/langchain/db.ts

    export * from "langchain/util/convex";

### Configure your schema[​](#configure-your-schema "Direct link to Configure your schema")

Set up your schema (for vector indexing):

convex/schema.ts

    import { defineSchema, defineTable } from "convex/server";import { v } from "convex/values";export default defineSchema({  documents: defineTable({    embedding: v.array(v.number()),    text: v.string(),    metadata: v.any(),  }).vectorIndex("byEmbedding", {    vectorField: "embedding",    dimensions: 1536,  }),});

Usage[​](#usage "Direct link to Usage")
---------------------------------------

tip

See [this section for general instructions on installing integration packages](/v0.1/docs/get_started/installation/#installing-integration-packages).

*   npm
*   Yarn
*   pnpm

    npm install @langchain/openai @langchain/community

    yarn add @langchain/openai @langchain/community

    pnpm add @langchain/openai @langchain/community

### Ingestion[​](#ingestion "Direct link to Ingestion")

convex/myActions.ts

    "use node";import { ConvexVectorStore } from "@langchain/community/vectorstores/convex";import { OpenAIEmbeddings } from "@langchain/openai";import { action } from "./_generated/server.js";export const ingest = action({  args: {},  handler: async (ctx) => {    await ConvexVectorStore.fromTexts(      ["Hello world", "Bye bye", "What's this?"],      [{ prop: 2 }, { prop: 1 }, { prop: 3 }],      new OpenAIEmbeddings(),      { ctx }    );  },});
