DocArray InMemorySearch
DocArrayInMemorySearch is a document index provided by Docarray that stores documents in memory. It is a great starting point for small datasets, where you may not want to launch a database server.
This notebook shows how to use functionality related to the DocArrayInMemorySearch.
Setup​
Uncomment the below cells to install docarray and get/set your OpenAI api key if you haven't already done so.

# OPENAI_API_KEY = getpass()
# os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"] = OPENAI_API_KEY
Using DocArrayInMemorySearch​
from langchain_community.document_loaders import TextLoader
from langchain_community.vectorstores import DocArrayInMemorySearch
from langchain_openai import OpenAIEmbeddings
from langchain_text_splitters import CharacterTextSplitter
documents = TextLoader("../../how_to/state_of_the_union.txt").load()
text_splitter = CharacterTextSplitter(chunk_size=1000, chunk_overlap=0)
docs = text_splitter.split_documents(documents)
embeddings = OpenAIEmbeddings()
db = DocArrayInMemorySearch.from_documents(docs, embeddings)
Similarity search​
query = "What did the president say about Ketanji Brown Jackson"
docs = db.similarity_search(query)
print(docs[0].page_content)
Tonight. I call on the Senate to: Pass the Freedom to Vote Act. Pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Act. And while you’re at it, pass the Disclose Act so Americans can know who is funding our elections.
Tonight, I’d like to honor someone who has dedicated his life to serve this country: Justice Stephen Breyer—an Army veteran, Constitutional scholar, and retiring Justice of the United States Supreme Court. Justice Breyer, thank you for your service.
One of the most serious constitutional responsibilities a President has is nominating someone to serve on the United States Supreme Court.
And I did that 4 days ago, when I nominated Circuit Court of Appeals Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson. One of our nation’s top legal minds, who will continue Justice Breyer’s legacy of excellence.
Similarity search with score​
The returned distance score is cosine distance. Therefore, a lower score is better.
docs = db.similarity_search_with_score(query)
