# grafeo-langchain

LangChain graph store and vector store backed by [GrafeoDB](https://github.com/GrafeoDB/grafeo) &mdash; an embedded graph database with native vector search.

No servers, no Docker, no configuration. Just `pip install` and go.

## Install

```bash
pip install grafeo-langchain
```

## Quick Start

### Knowledge Graph (GraphStore)

Store LLM-extracted triples and query them with GQL/Cypher:

```python
from langchain_openai import ChatOpenAI
from langchain_experimental.graph_transformers import LLMGraphTransformer
from langchain_core.documents import Document
from grafeo_langchain import GrafeoGraphStore

llm = ChatOpenAI(model="gpt-4o-mini", temperature=0)
transformer = LLMGraphTransformer(llm=llm)

documents = [
    Document(page_content="Alice works at Microsoft. Bob works at Google. Alice knows Bob."),
]
graph_documents = transformer.convert_to_graph_documents(documents)

store = GrafeoGraphStore(db_path="./knowledge.db")
store.add_graph_documents(graph_documents, include_source=True)

results = store.query("MATCH (p:Person)-[:WORKS_AT]->(c) RETURN p.node_id, c.node_id")
print(store.get_schema)
```

### Vector + Graph Retrieval (GraphVectorStore)

Combine vector similarity search with graph traversal for Graph RAG:

```python
from langchain_openai import OpenAIEmbeddings
from grafeo_langchain import GrafeoGraphVectorStore

embeddings = OpenAIEmbeddings(model="text-embedding-3-small")
store = GrafeoGraphVectorStore(
    embedding=embeddings,
    db_path="./doc_graph.db",
    embedding_dimensions=1536,
)

store.add_texts(
    texts=["Python is a programming language...", "Guido van Rossum...", "ABC influenced..."],
    metadatas=[
        {"id": "python", "__graph_links__": [{"target_id": "abc", "type": "INFLUENCED_BY"}]},
        {"id": "guido"},
        {"id": "abc", "__graph_links__": [{"target_id": "python", "type": "INFLUENCED"}]},
    ],
    ids=["python", "guido", "abc"],
)

# Standard vector search
docs = store.similarity_search("What programming languages exist?", k=2)

# Vector search + graph traversal
docs = store.traversal_search("What programming languages exist?", k=4, depth=2)

# MMR-diversified graph traversal
docs = store.mmr_traversal_search("programming history", k=4, depth=2, lambda_mult=0.7)
```
