Note

ChatGoogleGenerativeAI implements the standard Runnable Interface. 🏃

The Runnable Interface has additional methods that are available on runnables, such as with_types, with_retry, assign, bind, get_graph, and more.

param additional_headers: Dict[str, str] | None = None#

A key-value dictionary representing additional headers for the model call

param cache: BaseCache | bool | None = None#

async abatch(inputs: list[Input], config: RunnableConfig | list[RunnableConfig] | None = None, *, return_exceptions: bool = False, **kwargs: Any | None) list[Output]#

Default implementation runs ainvoke in parallel using asyncio.gather.

The default implementation of batch works well for IO bound runnables.

Subclasses should override this method if they can batch more efficiently; e.g., if the underlying Runnable uses an API which supports a batch mode.

Parameters:
  • inputs (list[Input]) – A list of inputs to the Runnable.

  • config (RunnableConfig | list[RunnableConfig] | None) – A config to use when invoking the Runnable. The config supports standard keys like ‘tags’, ‘metadata’ for tracing purposes, ‘max_concurrency’ for controlling how much work to do in parallel, and other keys. Please refer to the RunnableConfig for more details. Defaults to None.

  • return_exceptions (bool) – Whether to return exceptions instead of raising them. Defaults to False.

  • kwargs (Any | None) – Additional keyword arguments to pass to the Runnable.

Returns:

A list of outputs from the Runnable.

Return type:

list[Output]

async abatch_as_completed(inputs: Sequence[Input], config: RunnableConfig | Sequence[RunnableConfig] | None = None, *, return_exceptions: bool = False, **kwargs: Any | None) AsyncIterator[tuple[int, Output | Exception]]#

Run ainvoke in parallel on a list of inputs, yielding results as they complete.

Parameters:
  • inputs (Sequence[Input]) – A list of inputs to the Runnable.

  • config (RunnableConfig | Sequence[RunnableConfig] | None) – A config to use when invoking the Runnable. The config supports standard keys like ‘tags’, ‘metadata’ for tracing purposes, ‘max_concurrency’ for controlling how much work to do in parallel, and other keys. Please refer to the RunnableConfig for more details. Defaults to None. Defaults to None.

  • return_exceptions (bool) – Whether to return exceptions instead of raising them. Defaults to False.

  • kwargs (Any | None) – Additional keyword arguments to pass to the Runnable.

Yields:

A tuple of the index of the input and the output from the Runnable.

Return type:

AsyncIterator[tuple[int, Output | Exception]]

async ainvoke(input: LanguageModelInput, config: RunnableConfig | None = None, *, stop: list[str] | None = None, **kwargs: Any) BaseMessage#

Default implementation of ainvoke, calls invoke from a thread.

The default implementation allows usage of async code even if the Runnable did not implement a native async version of invoke.

Subclasses should override this method if they can run asynchronously.

Parameters:
  • input (LanguageModelInput)

  • config (Optional[RunnableConfig])

  • stop (Optional[list[str]])

  • kwargs (Any)

Return type:

BaseMessage

async astream(input: LanguageModelInput, config: RunnableConfig | None = None, *, stop: list[str] | None = None, **kwargs: Any) AsyncIterator[BaseMessageChunk]#

Default implementation of astream, which calls ainvoke. Subclasses should override this method if they support streaming output.

Parameters:
  • input (LanguageModelInput) – The input to the Runnable.

  • config (Optional[RunnableConfig]) – The config to use for the Runnable. Defaults to None.

  • kwargs (Any) – Additional keyword arguments to pass to the Runnable.

  • stop (Optional[list[str]])

Yields:

The output of the Runnable.

Return type:

AsyncIterator[BaseMessageChunk]

async astream_events(input: Any, config: RunnableConfig | None = None, *, version: Literal['v1', 'v2'], include_names: Sequence[str] | None = None, include_types: Sequence[str] | None = None, include_tags: Sequence[str] | None = None, exclude_names: Sequence[str] | None = None, exclude_types: Sequence[str] | None = None, exclude_tags: Sequence[str] | None = None, **kwargs: Any) AsyncIterator[StandardStreamEvent | CustomStreamEvent]#

Generate a stream of events.

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: str - Event names are of the

    format: on_[runnable_type]_(start|stream|end).

  • name: str - The name of the Runnable that generated the event.

  • run_id: str - 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.

  • parent_ids: List[str] - The IDs of the parent runnables that

    generated the event. The root Runnable will have an empty list. The order of the parent IDs is from the root to the immediate parent. Only available for v2 version of the API. The v1 version of the API will return an empty list.

  • tags: Optional[List[str]] - The tags of the Runnable that generated

    the event.

  • metadata: Optional[Dict[str, Any]] - The metadata of the Runnable

    that generated the event.

  • data: Dict[str, Any]

Below is a table that illustrates some evens 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.

In addition to the standard events, users can also dispatch custom events (see example below).

Custom events will be only be surfaced with in the v2 version of the API!

A custom event has following format:

Attribute

Type

Description

name

str

A user defined name for the event.

data

Any

The data associated with the event. This can be anything, though we suggest making it JSON serializable.

Here are declarations associated with the standard events shown above:

format_docs:

def format_docs(docs: List[Document]) -> str:
    '''Format the docs.'''
    return ", ".join([doc.page_content for doc in docs])

format_docs = RunnableLambda(format_docs)

some_tool:

@tool
def some_tool(x: int, y: str) -> dict:
    '''Some_tool.'''
    return {"x": x, "y": y}

prompt:

template = ChatPromptTemplate.from_messages(
    [("system", "You are Cat Agent 007"), ("human", "{question}")]
).with_config({"run_name": "my_template", "tags": ["my_template"]})

Example:

from langchain_core.runnables import RunnableLambda

async def reverse(s: str) -> str:
    return s[::-1]

chain = RunnableLambda(func=reverse)

events = [
    event async for event in chain.astream_events("hello", version="v2")
]

# will produce the following events (run_id, and parent_ids
# has been omitted for brevity):
[
    {
        "data": {"input": "hello"},
        "event": "on_chain_start",
        "metadata": {},
        "name": "reverse",
        "tags": [],
    },
    {
        "data": {"chunk": "olleh"},
        "event": "on_chain_stream",
        "metadata": {},
        "name": "reverse",

        "metadata": {},
        "name": "reverse",
        "tags": [],

)
from langchain_core.runnables import RunnableLambda, RunnableConfig
import asyncio


async def slow_thing(some_input: str, config: RunnableConfig) -> str:
    """Do something that takes a long time."""
    await asyncio.sleep(1) # Placeholder for some slow operation
    await adispatch_custom_event(
        "progress_event",
        {"message": "Finished step 1 of 3"},

    )
    await asyncio.sleep(1) # Placeholder for some slow operation
    await adispatch_custom_event(
        "progress_event",
        {"message": "Finished step 2 of 3"},
        config=config # Must be included for python < 3.10
    )
    await asyncio.sleep(1) # Placeholder for some slow operation
    return "Done"

slow_thing = RunnableLambda(slow_thing)

async for event in slow_thing.astream_events("some_input", version="v2"):
    print(event)
Parameters:
  • input (Any) – The input to the Runnable.

  • config (RunnableConfig | None) – The config to use for the Runnable.

  • version (Literal['v1', 'v2']) – The version of the schema to use either v2 or v1. Users should use v2. v1 is for backwards compatibility and will be deprecated in 0.4.0. No default will be assigned until the API is stabilized. custom events will only be surfaced in v2.

  • include_names (Sequence[str] | None) – Only include events from runnables with matching names.

  • include_types (Sequence[str] | None) – Only include events from runnables with matching types.

  • exclude_types (Sequence[str] | None) – Exclude events from runnables with matching types.

  • exclude_tags (Sequence[str] | None) – Exclude events from runnables with matching tags.

  • kwargs (Any) – Additional keyword arguments to pass to the Runnable. These will be passed to astream_log as this implementation of astream_events is built on top of astream_log.

Yields:

An async stream of StreamEvents.

Raises:

NotImplementedError – If the version is not v1 or v2.

with_structured_output(schema: Dict | Type[BaseModel], *, include_raw: bool = False, **kwargs: Any) Runnable[PromptValue | str | Sequence[BaseMessage | list[str] | tuple[str, str] | str | dict[str, Any]], Dict | BaseModel][source]#

Model wrapper that returns outputs formatted to match the given schema.

Parameters:
  • schema (Dict | Type[BaseModel]) –

    The output schema. Can be passed in as:
    • an OpenAI function/tool schema,

    • a JSON Schema,

    • a TypedDict class (support added in 0.2.26),

    • or a Pydantic class.

    If schema is a Pydantic class then the model output will be a Pydantic instance of that class, and the model-generated fields will be validated by the Pydantic class. Otherwise the model output will be a dict and will not be validated. See langchain_core.utils.function_calling.convert_to_openai_tool() for more on how to properly specify types and descriptions of schema fields when specifying a Pydantic or TypedDict class.

    Changed in version 0.2.26: Added support for TypedDict class.

  • include_raw (bool) – If False then only the parsed structured output is returned. If an error occurs during model output parsing it will be raised. If True then both the raw model response (a BaseMessage) and the parsed model response will be returned. If an error occurs during output parsing it will be caught and returned as well. The final output is always a dict with keys “raw”, “parsed”, and “parsing_error”.

  • kwargs (Any)

Returns:

A Runnable that takes same inputs as a langchain_core.language_models.chat.BaseChatModel.

If include_raw is False and schema is a Pydantic class, Runnable outputs an instance of schema (i.e., a Pydantic object).

Otherwise, if include_raw is False then Runnable outputs a dict.

If include_raw is True, then Runnable outputs a dict with keys:
  • "raw": BaseMessage

  • "parsed": None if there was a parsing error, otherwise the type depends on the schema as described above.

  • "parsing_error": Optional[BaseException]

Return type:

Runnable[PromptValue | str | Sequence[BaseMessage | list[str] | tuple[str, str] | str | dict[str, Any]], Dict | BaseModel]

Example: Pydantic schema (include_raw=False):
from pydantic import BaseModel
