Runnables¶

langchain_core.runnables.base.Runnable ¶

Bases: ABC, Generic[Input, Output]

A unit of work that can be invoked, batched, streamed, transformed and composed.

Key Methods¶

invoke/ainvoke: Transforms a single input into an output.
batch/abatch: Efficiently transforms multiple inputs into outputs.
stream/astream: Streams output from a single input as it's produced.
astream_log: Streams output and selected intermediate results from an input.

Built-in optimizations:

Batch: By default, batch runs invoke() in parallel using a thread pool executor. Override to optimize batching.
Async: Methods with 'a' suffix are asynchronous. By default, they execute the sync counterpart using asyncio's thread pool. Override for native async.

All methods accept an optional config argument, which can be used to configure execution, add tags and metadata for tracing and debugging etc.

Runnables expose schematic information about their input, output and config via the input_schema property, the output_schema property and config_schema method.

LCEL and Composition¶

The LangChain Expression Language (LCEL) is a declarative way to compose Runnable objectsinto chains. Any chain constructed this way will automatically have sync, async, batch, and streaming support.

The main composition primitives are RunnableSequence and RunnableParallel.

RunnableSequence invokes a series of runnables sequentially, with one Runnable's output serving as the next's input. Construct using the | operator or by passing a list of runnables to RunnableSequence.

RunnableParallel invokes runnables concurrently, providing the same input to each. Construct it using a dict literal within a sequence or by passing a dict to RunnableParallel.

For example,

from langchain_core.runnables import RunnableLambda

# A RunnableSequence constructed using the `|` operator
sequence = RunnableLambda(lambda x: x + 1) | RunnableLambda(lambda x: x * 2)
sequence.invoke(1)  # 4
sequence.batch([1, 2, 3])  # [4, 6, 8]


# A sequence that contains a RunnableParallel constructed using a dict literal
sequence = RunnableLambda(lambda x: x + 1) | {
    "mul_2": RunnableLambda(lambda x: x * 2),
    "mul_5": RunnableLambda(lambda x: x * 5),
}
sequence.invoke(1)  # {'mul_2': 4, 'mul_5': 10}

Standard Methods¶

All Runnables expose additional methods that can be used to modify their behavior (e.g., add a retry policy, add lifecycle listeners, make them configurable, etc.).

These methods will work on any Runnable, including Runnable chains constructed by composing other Runnables. See the individual methods for details.

For example,

from langchain_core.runnables import RunnableLambda

import random

def add_one(x: int) -> int:
    return x + 1


def buggy_double(y: int) -> int:
    """Buggy code that will fail 70% of the time"""
    if random.random() > 0.3:
        print('This code failed, and will probably be retried!')  # noqa: T201
        raise ValueError('Triggered buggy code')
    return y * 2

sequence = (
    RunnableLambda(add_one) |
    RunnableLambda(buggy_double).with_retry( # Retry on failure
        stop_after_attempt=10,
        wait_exponential_jitter=False
    )
)

print(sequence.input_schema.model_json_schema()) # Show inferred input schema
print(sequence.output_schema.model_json_schema()) # Show inferred output schema
print(sequence.invoke(2)) # invoke the sequence (note the retry above!!)

Debugging and tracing¶

As the chains get longer, it can be useful to be able to see intermediate results to debug and trace the chain.

You can set the global debug flag to True to enable debug output for all chains:

```python
from langchain_core.globals import set_debug

set_debug(True)
```

Alternatively, you can pass existing or custom callbacks to any given chain:

```python
from langchain_core.tracers import ConsoleCallbackHandler

chain.invoke(..., config={"callbacks": [ConsoleCallbackHandler()]})
```

Generate a stream of events.

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

A StreamEvent is a dictionary with the following schema:

event: Event names are of the format: on_[runnable_type]_(start|stream|end).
name: The name of the Runnable that generated the event.
run_id: 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: 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: The tags of the Runnable that generated the event.
metadata: The metadata of the Runnable that generated the event.
data: The data associated with the event. The contents of this field depend on the type of event. See the table below for more details.

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.

Note

This reference table is for the v2 version of the schema.

event	name	chunk	input	output
`on_chat_model_start`	`'[model name]'`		`{"messages": [[SystemMessage, HumanMessage]]}`
`on_chat_model_stream`	`'[model name]'`	`AIMessageChunk(content="hello")`
`on_chat_model_end`	`'[model name]'`		`{"messages": [[SystemMessage, HumanMessage]]}`	`AIMessageChunk(content="hello world")`
`on_llm_start`	`'[model name]'`		`{'input': 'hello'}`
`on_llm_stream`	`'[model name]'`	`'Hello'`
`on_llm_end`	`'[model name]'`		`'Hello human!'`
`on_chain_start`	`'format_docs'`
`on_chain_stream`	`'format_docs'`	`'hello world!, goodbye world!'`
`on_chain_end`	`'format_docs'`		`[Document(...)]`	`'hello world!, goodbye world!'`
`on_tool_start`	`'some_tool'`		`{"x": 1, "y": "2"}`
`on_tool_end`	`'some_tool'`			`{"x": 1, "y": "2"}`
`on_retriever_start`	`'[retriever name]'`		`{"query": "hello"}`
`on_retriever_end`	`'[retriever name]'`		`{"query": "hello"}`	`[Document(...), ..]`
`on_prompt_start`	`'[template_name]'`		`{"question": "hello"}`
`on_prompt_end`	`'[template_name]'`		`{"question": "hello"}`	`ChatPromptValue(messages: [SystemMessage, ...])`

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"]})

For instance:

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",
        "tags": [],
    },
    {
        "data": {"output": "olleh"},
        "event": "on_chain_end",
        "metadata": {},
        "name": "reverse",
        "tags": [],
    },
]

def f(x: dict[str, Any]) -> str:
    return str(x["a"] * max(x["b"]))

class FSchema(BaseModel):
    """Apply a function to an integer and list of integers."""

    a: int = Field(..., description="Integer")

langchain_core.runnables.base.RunnableBinding ¶

Bases: RunnableBindingBase[Input, Output]

Wrap a Runnable with additional functionality.

A RunnableBinding can be thought of as a "runnable decorator" that preserves the essential features of Runnable; i.e., batching, streaming, and async support, while adding additional functionality.

Any class that inherits from Runnable can be bound to a RunnableBinding. Runnables expose a standard set of methods for creating RunnableBindings or sub-classes of RunnableBindings (e.g., RunnableRetry, RunnableWithFallbacks) that add additional functionality.

These methods include:

bind: Bind kwargs to pass to the underlying Runnable when running it.
with_config: Bind config to pass to the underlying Runnable when running it.
with_listeners: Bind lifecycle listeners to the underlying Runnable.
with_types: Override the input and output types of the underlying Runnable.
with_retry: Bind a retry policy to the underlying Runnable.
with_fallbacks: Bind a fallback policy to the underlying Runnable.

Example: bind: Bind kwargs to pass to the underlying Runnable when running it.

```python
# Create a Runnable binding that invokes the chat model with the
# additional kwarg `stop=['-']` when running it.
from langchain_community.chat_models import ChatOpenAI

model = ChatOpenAI()
model.invoke('Say "Parrot-MAGIC"', stop=["-"])  # Should return `Parrot`
# Using it the easy way via `bind` method which returns a new
# RunnableBinding
runnable_binding = model.bind(stop=["-"])
runnable_binding.invoke('Say "Parrot-MAGIC"')  # Should return `Parrot`
```
Can also be done by instantiating a `RunnableBinding` directly (not
recommended):

```python
from langchain_core.runnables import RunnableBinding

runnable_binding = RunnableBinding(
    bound=model,
    kwargs={"stop": ["-"]},  # <-- Note the additional kwargs
)
runnable_binding.invoke('Say "Parrot-MAGIC"')  # Should return `Parrot`

parent_ids: 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: The tags of the Runnable that generated the event.
metadata: The metadata of the Runnable that generated the event.
data: The data associated with the event. The contents of this field depend on the type of event. See the table below for more details.

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.

Note

This reference table is for the v2 version of the schema.

`on_chat_model_end`	`'[model name]'`		`{"messages": [[SystemMessage, HumanMessage]]}`	`AIMessageChunk(content="hello world")`
`on_llm_start`	`'[model name]'`		`{'input': 'hello'}`

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"]})

For instance:

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",
        "tags": [],
    },
    {
        "data": {"output": "olleh"},
        "event": "on_chain_end",
        "metadata": {},
        "name": "reverse",
        "tags": [],
    },
]

langchain_core.runnables.base.RunnableGenerator ¶

Bases: Runnable[Input, Output]

Runnable that runs a generator function.

RunnableGenerators can be instantiated directly or by using a generator within a sequence.

RunnableGenerators can be used to implement custom behavior, such as custom output parsers, while preserving streaming capabilities. Given a generator function with a signature Iterator[A] -> Iterator[B], wrapping it in a RunnableGenerator allows it to emit output chunks as soon as they are streamed in from the previous step.

Note

If a generator function has a signature A -> Iterator[B], such that it requires its input from the previous step to be completed before emitting chunks (e.g., most LLMs need the entire prompt available to start generating), it can instead be wrapped in a RunnableLambda.

Here is an example to show the basic mechanics of a RunnableGenerator:

```python
from typing import Any, AsyncIterator, Iterator

from langchain_core.runnables import RunnableGenerator


def gen(input: Iterator[Any]) -> Iterator[str]:
    for token in ["Have", " a", " nice", " day"]:
        yield token


runnable = RunnableGenerator(gen)
runnable.invoke(None)  # "Have a nice day"
list(runnable.stream(None))  # ["Have", " a", " nice", " day"]
runnable.batch([None, None])  # ["Have a nice day", "Have a nice day"]


# Async version:
async def agen(input: AsyncIterator[Any]) -> AsyncIterator[str]:
    for token in ["Have", " a", " nice", " day"]:
        yield token


runnable = RunnableGenerator(agen)
await runnable.ainvoke(None)  # "Have a nice day"
[p async for p in runnable.astream(None)]  # ["Have", " a", " nice", " day"]
```

RunnableGenerator makes it easy to implement custom behavior within a streaming context. Below we show an example:

```python
from langchain_core.prompts import ChatPromptTemplate
from langchain_core.runnables import RunnableGenerator, RunnableLambda
from langchain_openai import ChatOpenAI
from langchain_core.output_parsers import StrOutputParser


model = ChatOpenAI()
chant_chain = (
    ChatPromptTemplate.from_template("Give me a 3 word chant about {topic}")
    | model
    | StrOutputParser()
)


def character_generator(input: Iterator[str]) -> Iterator[str]:
    for token in input:
        if "," in token or "." in token:
            yield "👏" + token
        else:
            yield token


runnable = chant_chain | character_generator
assert type(runnable.last) is RunnableGenerator
"".join(runnable.stream({"topic": "waste"}))  # Reduce👏, Reuse👏, Recycle👏.


# Note that RunnableLambda can be used to delay streaming of one step in a
# sequence until the previous step is finished:
def reverse_generator(input: str) -> Iterator[str]:
    # Yield characters of input in reverse order.
    for character in input[::-1]:
        yield character


runnable = chant_chain | RunnableLambda(reverse_generator)
"".join(runnable.stream({"topic": "waste"}))  # ".elcycer ,esuer ,ecudeR"
```

    exclude_types: Sequence[str] | None = None,
    exclude_tags: Sequence[str] | None = None,
    **kwargs: Any,
) -> AsyncIterator[StreamEvent]

Generate a stream of events.

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

A StreamEvent is a dictionary with the following schema:

event: Event names are of the format: on_[runnable_type]_(start|stream|end).
name: The name of the Runnable that generated the event.
run_id: 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: 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: The tags of the Runnable that generated the event.
metadata: The metadata of the Runnable that generated the event.
data: The data associated with the event. The contents of this field depend on the type of event. See the table below for more details.

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.

Note

This reference table is for the v2 version of the schema.

event	name	chunk	input	output
`on_chat_model_start`	`'[model name]'`		`{"messages": [[SystemMessage, HumanMessage]]}`
`on_chat_model_stream`	`'[model name]'`	`AIMessageChunk(content="hello")`
`on_chat_model_end`	`'[model name]'`		`{"messages": [[SystemMessage, HumanMessage]]}`	`AIMessageChunk(content="hello world")`
`on_llm_start`	`'[model name]'`		`{'input': 'hello'}`
`on_llm_stream`	`'[model name]'`	`'Hello'`
`on_llm_end`	`'[model name]'`		`'Hello human!'`
`on_chain_start`	`'format_docs'`
`on_chain_stream`	`'format_docs'`	`'hello world!, goodbye world!'`
`on_chain_end`	`'format_docs'`		`[Document(...)]`	`'hello world!, goodbye world!'`
`on_tool_start`	`'some_tool'`		`{"x": 1, "y": "2"}`
`on_tool_end`	`'some_tool'`			`{"x": 1, "y": "2"}`
`on_retriever_start`	`'[retriever name]'`		`{"query": "hello"}`
`on_retriever_end`	`'[retriever name]'`		`{"query": "hello"}`	`[Document(...), ..]`
`on_prompt_start`	`'[template_name]'`		`{"question": "hello"}`
`on_prompt_end`	`'[template_name]'`		`{"question": "hello"}`	`ChatPromptValue(messages: [SystemMessage, ...])`

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"]})

For instance:

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):
[
    {

langchain_core.runnables.base.RunnableLambda ¶

Bases: Runnable[Input, Output]

RunnableLambda converts a python callable into a Runnable.

Wrapping a callable in a RunnableLambda makes the callable usable within either a sync or async context.

RunnableLambda can be composed as any other Runnable and provides seamless integration with LangChain tracing.

RunnableLambda is best suited for code that does not need to support streaming. If you need to support streaming (i.e., be able to operate on chunks of inputs and yield chunks of outputs), use RunnableGenerator instead.

Note that if a RunnableLambda returns an instance of Runnable, that instance is invoked (or streamed) during execution.

Examples:

# This is a RunnableLambda
from langchain_core.runnables import RunnableLambda


def add_one(x: int) -> int:
    return x + 1


runnable = RunnableLambda(add_one)

runnable.invoke(1)  # returns 2
runnable.batch([1, 2, 3])  # returns [2, 3, 4]

# Async is supported by default by delegating to the sync implementation
await runnable.ainvoke(1)  # returns 2
await runnable.abatch([1, 2, 3])  # returns [2, 3, 4]


# Alternatively, can provide both synd and sync implementations
async def add_one_async(x: int) -> int:
    return x + 1


runnable = RunnableLambda(add_one, afunc=add_one_async)
runnable.invoke(1)  # Uses add_one
await runnable.ainvoke(1)  # Uses add_one_async

    exclude_types: Sequence[str] | None = None,
    exclude_tags: Sequence[str] | None = None,
    **kwargs: Any,
) -> AsyncIterator[StreamEvent]

Generate a stream of events.

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

A StreamEvent is a dictionary with the following schema:

event: Event names are of the format: on_[runnable_type]_(start|stream|end).
name: The name of the Runnable that generated the event.
run_id: 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: 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: The tags of the Runnable that generated the event.
metadata: The metadata of the Runnable that generated the event.
data: The data associated with the event. The contents of this field depend on the type of event. See the table below for more details.

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.

Note

This reference table is for the v2 version of the schema.

event	name	chunk	input	output
`on_chat_model_start`	`'[model name]'`		`{"messages": [[SystemMessage, HumanMessage]]}`
`on_chat_model_stream`	`'[model name]'`	`AIMessageChunk(content="hello")`
`on_chat_model_end`	`'[model name]'`		`{"messages": [[SystemMessage, HumanMessage]]}`	`AIMessageChunk(content="hello world")`
`on_llm_start`	`'[model name]'`		`{'input': 'hello'}`
`on_llm_stream`	`'[model name]'`	`'Hello'`
`on_llm_end`	`'[model name]'`		`'Hello human!'`
`on_chain_start`	`'format_docs'`
`on_chain_stream`	`'format_docs'`	`'hello world!, goodbye world!'`
`on_chain_end`	`'format_docs'`		`[Document(...)]`	`'hello world!, goodbye world!'`
`on_tool_start`	`'some_tool'`		`{"x": 1, "y": "2"}`
`on_tool_end`	`'some_tool'`			`{"x": 1, "y": "2"}`
`on_retriever_start`	`'[retriever name]'`		`{"query": "hello"}`
`on_retriever_end`	`'[retriever name]'`		`{"query": "hello"}`	`[Document(...), ..]`
`on_prompt_start`	`'[template_name]'`		`{"question": "hello"}`
`on_prompt_end`	`'[template_name]'`		`{"question": "hello"}`	`ChatPromptValue(messages: [SystemMessage, ...])`

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"]})

For instance:

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",
        "tags": [],
    },
    {
        "data": {"output": "olleh"},
        "event": "on_chain_end",
        "metadata": {},
        "name": "reverse",
        "tags": [],
    },
]

def f(x: Args) -> str:
    return str(x["a"] * max(x["b"]))


runnable = RunnableLambda(f)
as_tool = runnable.as_tool()
as_tool.invoke({"a": 3, "b": [1, 2]})

dict input, specifying schema via args_schema:

from typing import Any
from pydantic import BaseModel, Field
from langchain_core.runnables import RunnableLambda

def f(x: dict[str, Any]) -> str:
    return str(x["a"] * max(x["b"]))

class FSchema(BaseModel):
    """Apply a function to an integer and list of integers."""

    a: int = Field(..., description="Integer")
    b: list[int] = Field(..., description="List of ints")

langchain_core.runnables.base.RunnableParallel ¶

Bases: RunnableSerializable[Input, dict[str, Any]]

Runnable that runs a mapping of Runnables in parallel.

Returns a mapping of their outputs.

RunnableParallel is one of the two main composition primitives for the LCEL, alongside RunnableSequence. It invokes Runnables concurrently, providing the same input to each.

A RunnableParallel can be instantiated directly or by using a dict literal within a sequence.

Here is a simple example that uses functions to illustrate the use of RunnableParallel:

```python
from langchain_core.runnables import RunnableLambda


def add_one(x: int) -> int:
    return x + 1


def mul_two(x: int) -> int:
    return x * 2


def mul_three(x: int) -> int:
    return x * 3


runnable_1 = RunnableLambda(add_one)
runnable_2 = RunnableLambda(mul_two)
runnable_3 = RunnableLambda(mul_three)

sequence = runnable_1 | {  # this dict is coerced to a RunnableParallel
    "mul_two": runnable_2,
    "mul_three": runnable_3,
}
# Or equivalently:
# sequence = runnable_1 | RunnableParallel(
#     {"mul_two": runnable_2, "mul_three": runnable_3}
# )
# Also equivalently:
# sequence = runnable_1 | RunnableParallel(
#     mul_two=runnable_2,
#     mul_three=runnable_3,
# )

sequence.invoke(1)
await sequence.ainvoke(1)

sequence.batch([1, 2, 3])
await sequence.abatch([1, 2, 3])
```

RunnableParallel makes it easy to run Runnables in parallel. In the below example, we simultaneously stream output from two different Runnable objects:

```python
from langchain_core.prompts import ChatPromptTemplate
from langchain_core.runnables import RunnableParallel
from langchain_openai import ChatOpenAI

model = ChatOpenAI()
joke_chain = (
    ChatPromptTemplate.from_template("tell me a joke about {topic}") | model
)
poem_chain = (
    ChatPromptTemplate.from_template("write a 2-line poem about {topic}")
    | model
)

runnable = RunnableParallel(joke=joke_chain, poem=poem_chain)

# Display stream
output = {key: "" for key, _ in runnable.output_schema()}
for chunk in runnable.stream({"topic": "bear"}):
    for key in chunk:
        output[key] = output[key] + chunk[key].content
    print(output)  # noqa: T201
```

    exclude_types: Sequence[str] | None = None,
    exclude_tags: Sequence[str] | None = None,
    **kwargs: Any,
) -> AsyncIterator[StreamEvent]

Generate a stream of events.

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

A StreamEvent is a dictionary with the following schema:

event: Event names are of the format: on_[runnable_type]_(start|stream|end).
name: The name of the Runnable that generated the event.
run_id: 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: 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: The tags of the Runnable that generated the event.
metadata: The metadata of the Runnable that generated the event.
data: The data associated with the event. The contents of this field depend on the type of event. See the table below for more details.

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.

Note

This reference table is for the v2 version of the schema.

event	name	chunk	input	output
`on_chat_model_start`	`'[model name]'`		`{"messages": [[SystemMessage, HumanMessage]]}`
`on_chat_model_stream`	`'[model name]'`	`AIMessageChunk(content="hello")`
`on_chat_model_end`	`'[model name]'`		`{"messages": [[SystemMessage, HumanMessage]]}`	`AIMessageChunk(content="hello world")`
`on_llm_start`	`'[model name]'`		`{'input': 'hello'}`
`on_llm_stream`	`'[model name]'`	`'Hello'`
`on_llm_end`	`'[model name]'`		`'Hello human!'`
`on_chain_start`	`'format_docs'`
`on_chain_stream`	`'format_docs'`	`'hello world!, goodbye world!'`
`on_chain_end`	`'format_docs'`		`[Document(...)]`	`'hello world!, goodbye world!'`
`on_tool_start`	`'some_tool'`		`{"x": 1, "y": "2"}`
`on_tool_end`	`'some_tool'`			`{"x": 1, "y": "2"}`
`on_retriever_start`	`'[retriever name]'`		`{"query": "hello"}`
`on_retriever_end`	`'[retriever name]'`		`{"query": "hello"}`	`[Document(...), ..]`
`on_prompt_start`	`'[template_name]'`		`{"question": "hello"}`
`on_prompt_end`	`'[template_name]'`		`{"question": "hello"}`	`ChatPromptValue(messages: [SystemMessage, ...])`

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"]})

For instance:

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",
        "tags": [],
    },
    {
        "data": {"output": "olleh"},
        "event": "on_chain_end",
        "metadata": {},
        "name": "reverse",
        "tags": [],
    },
]

langchain_core.runnables.base.RunnableSequence ¶

Bases: RunnableSerializable[Input, Output]

Sequence of Runnable objects, where the output of one is the input of the next.

RunnableSequence is the most important composition operator in LangChain as it is used in virtually every chain.

A RunnableSequence can be instantiated directly or more commonly by using the | operator where either the left or right operands (or both) must be a Runnable.

Any RunnableSequence automatically supports sync, async, batch.

The default implementations of batch and abatch utilize threadpools and asyncio gather and will be faster than naive invocation of invoke or ainvoke for IO bound Runnables.

Batching is implemented by invoking the batch method on each component of the RunnableSequence in order.

A RunnableSequence preserves the streaming properties of its components, so if all components of the sequence implement a transform method -- which is the method that implements the logic to map a streaming input to a streaming output -- then the sequence will be able to stream input to output!

If any component of the sequence does not implement transform then the streaming will only begin after this component is run. If there are multiple blocking components, streaming begins after the last one.

Note

RunnableLambdas do not support transform by default! So if you need to use a RunnableLambdas be careful about where you place them in a RunnableSequence (if you need to use the stream/astream methods).

If you need arbitrary logic and need streaming, you can subclass Runnable, and implement transform for whatever logic you need.

Here is a simple example that uses simple functions to illustrate the use of RunnableSequence:

```python
from langchain_core.runnables import RunnableLambda


def add_one(x: int) -> int:
    return x + 1


def mul_two(x: int) -> int:
    return x * 2


runnable_1 = RunnableLambda(add_one)
runnable_2 = RunnableLambda(mul_two)
sequence = runnable_1 | runnable_2
# Or equivalently:
# sequence = RunnableSequence(first=runnable_1, last=runnable_2)
sequence.invoke(1)
await sequence.ainvoke(1)

sequence.batch([1, 2, 3])
await sequence.abatch([1, 2, 3])
```

Here's an example that uses streams JSON output generated by an LLM:

```python
from langchain_core.output_parsers.json import SimpleJsonOutputParser
from langchain_openai import ChatOpenAI

prompt = PromptTemplate.from_template(
    "In JSON format, give me a list of {topic} and their "
    "corresponding names in French, Spanish and in a "
    "Cat Language."
)

model = ChatOpenAI()
chain = prompt | model | SimpleJsonOutputParser()

async for chunk in chain.astream({"topic": "colors"}):
    print("-")  # noqa: T201
    print(chunk, sep="", flush=True)  # noqa: T201
```

    exclude_types: Sequence[str] | None = None,
    exclude_tags: Sequence[str] | None = None,
    **kwargs: Any,
) -> AsyncIterator[StreamEvent]

Generate a stream of events.

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

A StreamEvent is a dictionary with the following schema:

event: Event names are of the format: on_[runnable_type]_(start|stream|end).
name: The name of the Runnable that generated the event.
run_id: 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: 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: The tags of the Runnable that generated the event.
metadata: The metadata of the Runnable that generated the event.
data: The data associated with the event. The contents of this field depend on the type of event. See the table below for more details.

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.

Note

This reference table is for the v2 version of the schema.

event	name	chunk	input	output
`on_chat_model_start`	`'[model name]'`		`{"messages": [[SystemMessage, HumanMessage]]}`
`on_chat_model_stream`	`'[model name]'`	`AIMessageChunk(content="hello")`
`on_chat_model_end`	`'[model name]'`		`{"messages": [[SystemMessage, HumanMessage]]}`	`AIMessageChunk(content="hello world")`
`on_llm_start`	`'[model name]'`		`{'input': 'hello'}`
`on_llm_stream`	`'[model name]'`	`'Hello'`
`on_llm_end`	`'[model name]'`		`'Hello human!'`
`on_chain_start`	`'format_docs'`
`on_chain_stream`	`'format_docs'`	`'hello world!, goodbye world!'`
`on_chain_end`	`'format_docs'`		`[Document(...)]`	`'hello world!, goodbye world!'`
`on_tool_start`	`'some_tool'`		`{"x": 1, "y": "2"}`
`on_tool_end`	`'some_tool'`			`{"x": 1, "y": "2"}`
`on_retriever_start`	`'[retriever name]'`		`{"query": "hello"}`
`on_retriever_end`	`'[retriever name]'`		`{"query": "hello"}`	`[Document(...), ..]`
`on_prompt_start`	`'[template_name]'`		`{"question": "hello"}`
`on_prompt_end`	`'[template_name]'`		`{"question": "hello"}`	`ChatPromptValue(messages: [SystemMessage, ...])`

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"]})

For instance:

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",
        "tags": [],
    },
    {
        "data": {"output": "olleh"},
        "event": "on_chain_end",
        "metadata": {},
        "name": "reverse",
        "tags": [],
    },
]

    exclude_types: Sequence[str] | None = None,
    exclude_tags: Sequence[str] | None = None,
    **kwargs: Any,
) -> AsyncIterator[StreamEvent]

Generate a stream of events.

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

A StreamEvent is a dictionary with the following schema:

event: Event names are of the format: on_[runnable_type]_(start|stream|end).
name: The name of the Runnable that generated the event.
run_id: 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: 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: The tags of the Runnable that generated the event.
metadata: The metadata of the Runnable that generated the event.
data: The data associated with the event. The contents of this field depend on the type of event. See the table below for more details.

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.

Note

This reference table is for the v2 version of the schema.

event	name	chunk	input	output
`on_chat_model_start`	`'[model name]'`		`{"messages": [[SystemMessage, HumanMessage]]}`
`on_chat_model_stream`	`'[model name]'`	`AIMessageChunk(content="hello")`
`on_chat_model_end`	`'[model name]'`		`{"messages": [[SystemMessage, HumanMessage]]}`	`AIMessageChunk(content="hello world")`
`on_llm_start`	`'[model name]'`		`{'input': 'hello'}`
`on_llm_stream`	`'[model name]'`	`'Hello'`
`on_llm_end`	`'[model name]'`		`'Hello human!'`
`on_chain_start`	`'format_docs'`
`on_chain_stream`	`'format_docs'`	`'hello world!, goodbye world!'`
`on_chain_end`	`'format_docs'`		`[Document(...)]`	`'hello world!, goodbye world!'`
`on_tool_start`	`'some_tool'`		`{"x": 1, "y": "2"}`
`on_tool_end`	`'some_tool'`			`{"x": 1, "y": "2"}`
`on_retriever_start`	`'[retriever name]'`		`{"query": "hello"}`
`on_retriever_end`	`'[retriever name]'`		`{"query": "hello"}`	`[Document(...), ..]`
`on_prompt_start`	`'[template_name]'`		`{"question": "hello"}`
`on_prompt_end`	`'[template_name]'`		`{"question": "hello"}`	`ChatPromptValue(messages: [SystemMessage, ...])`

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"]})

For instance:

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",
        "tags": [],
    },
    {
        "data": {"output": "olleh"},
        "event": "on_chain_end",
        "metadata": {},
        "name": "reverse",
        "tags": [],
    },
]

    description: str | None = None,
    arg_types: dict[str, type] | None = None,
) -> BaseTool

Create a BaseTool from a Runnable.

as_tool will instantiate a BaseTool with a name, description, and args_schema from a Runnable. Where possible, schemas are inferred from runnable.get_input_schema. Alternatively (e.g., if the Runnable takes a dict as input and the specific dict keys are not typed), the schema can be specified directly with args_schema. You can also pass arg_types to just specify the required arguments and their types.

class Args(TypedDict):
    a: int
    b: list[int]


def f(x: Args) -> str:
    return str(x["a"] * max(x["b"]))


runnable = RunnableLambda(f)
as_tool = runnable.as_tool()
as_tool.invoke({"a": 3, "b": [1, 2]})

dict input, specifying schema via args_schema:

from typing import Any
from pydantic import BaseModel, Field
from langchain_core.runnables import RunnableLambda

def f(x: dict[str, Any]) -> str:
    return str(x["a"] * max(x["b"]))

class FSchema(BaseModel):
    """Apply a function to an integer and list of integers."""

    a: int = Field(..., description="Integer")
    b: list[int] = Field(..., description="List of ints")

runnable = RunnableLambda(f)
as_tool = runnable.as_tool(FSchema)
as_tool.invoke({"a": 3, "b": [1, 2]})

dict input, specifying schema via arg_types:

from typing import Any
from langchain_core.runnables import RunnableLambda


def f(x: dict[str, Any]) -> str:
    return str(x["a"] * max(x["b"]))


runnable = RunnableLambda(f)
as_tool = runnable.as_tool(arg_types={"a": int, "b": list[int]})
as_tool.invoke({"a": 3, "b": [1, 2]})

String input:

from langchain_core.runnables import RunnableLambda


def f(x: str) -> str:
    return x + "a"

init ¶

__init__(*args: Any, **kwargs: Any) -> None

is_lc_serializable `classmethod` ¶

is_lc_serializable() -> bool

Is this class serializable?

By design, even if a class inherits from Serializable, it is not serializable by default. This is to prevent accidental serialization of objects that should not be serialized.

RETURNS	DESCRIPTION
`bool`	Whether the class is serializable. Default is `False`.

get_lc_namespace `classmethod` ¶

get_lc_namespace() -> list[str]

Get the namespace of the LangChain object.

For example, if the class is langchain.llms.openai.OpenAI, then the namespace is ["langchain", "llms", "openai"]

RETURNS	DESCRIPTION
`list[str]`	The namespace.

lc_id `classmethod` ¶

lc_id() -> list[str]

Return a unique identifier for this class for serialization purposes.

The unique identifier is a list of strings that describes the path to the object.

For example, for the class langchain.llms.openai.OpenAI, the id is ["langchain", "llms", "openai", "OpenAI"].

to_json_not_implemented ¶

to_json_not_implemented() -> SerializedNotImplemented

Serialize a "not implemented" object.

RETURNS	DESCRIPTION
`SerializedNotImplemented`	`SerializedNotImplemented`.

langchain_core.runnables.RunnableConfig ¶

Bases: TypedDict

metadata `instance-attribute` ¶

metadata: dict[str, Any]

Metadata for this call and any sub-calls (eg. a Chain calling an LLM). Keys should be strings, values should be JSON-serializable.

callbacks `instance-attribute` ¶

callbacks: Callbacks

Callbacks for this call and any sub-calls (eg. a Chain calling an LLM). Tags are passed to all callbacks, metadata is passed to handle*Start callbacks.

run_name `instance-attribute` ¶

run_name: str

Name for the tracer run for this call. Defaults to the name of the class.

max_concurrency `instance-attribute` ¶

max_concurrency: int | None

Maximum number of parallel calls to make. If not provided, defaults to ThreadPoolExecutor's default.

recursion_limit `instance-attribute` ¶

recursion_limit: int

Maximum number of times a call can recurse. If not provided, defaults to 25.

configurable `instance-attribute` ¶

configurable: dict[str, Any]

Runtime values for attributes previously made configurable on this Runnable, or sub-Runnables, through configurable_fields or configurable_alternatives. Check output_schema for a description of the attributes that have been made configurable.

run_id `instance-attribute` ¶

run_id: UUID | None

Unique identifier for the tracer run for this call. If not provided, a new UUID will be generated.
