Methods

  • Convert a runnable to a tool. Return a new instance of either DynamicStructuredTool<z.ZodType<RunInput>> if the input schema requires an object, or DynamicTool if the input schema requires a single string.

    Parameters

    • fields: {
          schema: ZodString;
          description?: string;
          name?: string;
      }
      • schema: ZodString

        The Zod schema for the input of the tool. Either the schema itself or a ZodString.

      • Optionaldescription?: string

        The description of the tool. If not provided, it will default to Takes {schema} where schema is a JSON string representation of the input schema.

      • Optionalname?: string

        The name of the tool. If not provided, it will default to the name of the runnable.

    Returns DynamicTool

    The tool created from the runnable. DynamicTool if the schema is a ZodString, DynamicStructuredTool if the schema is a ZodType.

  • Parameters

    • fields: {
          schema: ZodType<(output<T> extends string
              ? string
              : never) | input<T>, ZodTypeDef, (output<T> extends string
              ? string
              : never) | input<T>>;
          description?: string;
          name?: string;
      }
      • schema: ZodType<(output<T> extends string

            ? string
            : never) | input<T>>
      • Optionaldescription?: string
      • Optionalname?: string

    Returns DynamicStructuredTool<ZodType<(output<T> extends string
        ? string
        : never) | input<T>, ZodTypeDef, (output<T> extends string
        ? string
        : never) | input<T>>>

  • Default implementation of batch, which calls invoke N times. Subclasses should override this method if they can batch more efficiently.

    Parameters

    • inputs: ((output<T> extends string
          ? string
          : never) | input<T>)[]

      Array of inputs to each batch call.

    • Optionaloptions: Partial<RunnableConfig> | Partial<RunnableConfig>[]

      Either a single call options object to apply to each batch call or an array for each call.

    • OptionalbatchOptions: RunnableBatchOptions & {
          returnExceptions?: false;
      }

    Returns Promise<string[]>

    An array of RunOutputs, or mixed RunOutputs and errors if batchOptions.returnExceptions is set

  • Parameters

    Returns Promise<(string | Error)[]>

  • Parameters

    Returns Promise<(string | Error)[]>

  • Parameters

    • arg: input<T> | (output<T> extends string
          ? string
          : never)

      The input argument for the tool.

    • OptionalconfigArg: Callbacks | RunnableConfig

      Optional configuration or callbacks for the tool.

    • Optionaltags: string[]

      Optional tags for the tool.

    Returns Promise<string>

    A Promise that resolves with a string.

    Use .invoke() instead. Will be removed in 0.3.0.

    Calls the tool with the provided argument, configuration, and tags. It parses the input according to the schema, handles any errors, and manages callbacks.

  • Invokes the tool with the provided input and configuration.

    Parameters

    • input: input<T> | (output<T> extends string
          ? string
          : never)

      The input for the tool.

    • Optionalconfig: RunnableConfig

      Optional configuration for the tool.

    Returns Promise<string>

    A Promise that resolves with a string.

  • Generate a stream of events emitted by the internal steps of the runnable.

    Use to create an iterator over StreamEvents that provide real-time information about the progress of the runnable, including StreamEvents from intermediate results.

    A StreamEvent is a dictionary with the following schema:

    • event: string - Event names are of the format: on_[runnable_type]_(start|stream|end).
    • name: string - The name of the runnable that generated the event.
    • run_id: string - Randomly generated ID associated with the given execution of the runnable that emitted the event. A child runnable that gets invoked as part of the execution of a parent runnable is assigned its own unique ID.
    • tags: string[] - The tags of the runnable that generated the event.
    • metadata: Record<string, any> - The metadata of the runnable that generated the event.
    • data: Record<string, any>

    Below is a table that illustrates some events that might be emitted by various chains. Metadata fields have been omitted from the table for brevity. Chain definitions have been included after the table.

    ATTENTION This reference table is for the V2 version of the schema.

    Parameters

    • input: (output<T> extends string
          ? string
          : never) | input<T>
    • options: Partial<RunnableConfig> & {
          version: "v1" | "v2";
      }
    • OptionalstreamOptions: Omit<EventStreamCallbackHandlerInput, "autoClose">

    Returns IterableReadableStream<StreamEvent>

  • Parameters

    • input: (output<T> extends string
          ? string
          : never) | input<T>
    • options: Partial<RunnableConfig> & {
          encoding: "text/event-stream";

      }
    • OptionalstreamOptions: Omit<EventStreamCallbackHandlerInput, "autoClose">

    Returns IterableReadableStream<Uint8Array>

  • Stream all output from a runnable, as reported to the callback system. This includes all inner runs of LLMs, Retrievers, Tools, etc. Output is streamed as Log objects, which include a list of jsonpatch ops that describe how the state of the run has changed in each step, and the final state of the run. The jsonpatch ops can be applied in order to construct state.

    Parameters

    Returns AsyncGenerator<RunLogPatch, any, unknown>

  • Default implementation of transform, which buffers input and then calls stream. Subclasses should override this method if they can start producing output while input is still being generated.

    Parameters

    • generator: AsyncGenerator<(output<T> extends string
          ? string
          : never) | input<T>, any, unknown>
    • options: Partial<RunnableConfig>

    Returns AsyncGenerator<string, any, unknown>

  • Create a new runnable from the current one that will try invoking other passed fallback runnables if the initial invocation fails.

    Parameters

    • fields: {
          fallbacks: Runnable<(output<T> extends string
              ? string
              : never) | input<T>, string, RunnableConfig>[];
      }
      • fallbacks: Runnable<(output<T> extends string
            ? string
            : never) | input<T>, string, RunnableConfig>[]

        Other runnables to call if the runnable errors.

    Returns RunnableWithFallbacks<(output<T> extends string
        ? string
        : never) | input<T>, string>

    A new RunnableWithFallbacks.
