LLMChain<LLMType extends BaseLanguageModel<Object, LanguageModelOptions, LanguageModelResult<Object>>, LLMOptions extends LanguageModelOptions, MemoryType extends BaseMemory> class

NOTE: Chains are the legacy way of using LangChain and will eventually be removed. Use LangChain Expression Language (LCEL) instead, a more flexible and powerful way to combine different components.

Chain to run queries against LLMs.

It takes in a prompt template, formats it with the user input and returns the response from an LLM.

Example:

final prompt = PromptTemplate.fromTemplate('Tell me a {adjective} joke');
final chain = LLMChain(llm: OpenAI(apiKey: '...'), prompt: prompt);
final res = await chain.run('bad');

Methods

apply(List<ChainValues> inputs) Future<List<ChainValues>>
Call the chain on all inputs in the list.
inherited
batch(List<ChainValues> inputs, {List<ChainOptions>? options}) Future<List<ChainValues>>
Batches the invocation of the Runnable on the given inputs.
inherited
bind(ChainOptions options) RunnableBinding<ChainValues, ChainOptions, ChainValues>
Binds the Runnable to the given options.
inherited
call(dynamic input, {bool returnOnlyOutputs = false}) Future<ChainValues>
Runs the core logic of this chain with the given values. If memory is not null, it will be used to load and save values.
inherited
callInternal(ChainValues inputs) Future<ChainValues>
Call method to be implemented by subclasses (called by call). This is where the core logic of the chain should be implemented.
override
close() → void
Cleans up any resources associated with it the Runnable.
inherited
getCompatibleOptions(RunnableOptions? options) ChainOptions?
Returns the given options if they are compatible with the Runnable, otherwise returns null.
inherited
invoke(ChainValues input, {ChainOptions? options}) Future<ChainValues>
Runs the core logic of this chain with the given input.
inherited
noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic
Invoked when a nonexistent method or property is accessed.
inherited
pipe<NewRunOutput extends Object?, NewCallOptions extends RunnableOptions>(Runnable<ChainValues, NewCallOptions, NewRunOutput> next) RunnableSequence<ChainValues, NewRunOutput>
Pipes the output of this Runnable into another Runnable using a RunnableSequence.
inherited
run(dynamic input) Future<String>
Convenience method for executing chain when there's a single string output.
inherited
stream(ChainValues input, {ChainOptions? options}) Stream<ChainValues>
Streams the output of invoking the Runnable on the given input.
inherited
streamFromInputStream(Stream<ChainValues> inputStream, {ChainOptions? options}) Stream<ChainValues>
Streams the output of invoking the Runnable on the given inputStream.
inherited
toString() String
A string representation of this object.
inherited
withFallbacks(List<Runnable<ChainValues, RunnableOptions, ChainValues>> fallbacks) RunnableWithFallback<ChainValues, ChainValues>
Adds fallback runnables to be invoked if the primary runnable fails.
inherited
withRetry({int maxRetries = 3, FutureOr<bool> retryIf(Object e)?, List<Duration?>? delayDurations, bool addJitter = false}) RunnableRetry<ChainValues, ChainValues>
Adds retry logic to an existing runnable.
inherited

Operators

operator ==(Object other) bool
The equality operator.
inherited

Constants

defaultOutputKey → const String
Default output key.
fullGenerationOutputKey → const String
Output key to use for returning the full generation.
