Methods

addDocuments

  • addDocuments(documents): Promise<string[]>

  • Adds documents to the Vectara store.

    Parameters

    • documents: Document<Record<string, any>>[]

      An array of Document objects to add to the Vectara store.

    Returns Promise<string[]>

    A Promise that resolves to an array of document IDs indexed in Vectara.

addFiles

  • addFiles(files, metadatas?): Promise<string[]>

  • Vectara provides a way to add documents directly via their API. This API handles pre-processing and chunking internally in an optimal manner. This method is a wrapper to utilize that API within LangChain.

    Parameters

    • files: VectaraFile[]

      An array of VectaraFile objects representing the files and their respective file names to be uploaded to Vectara.

    • metadatas: undefined | Record<string, unknown> = undefined

    Returns Promise<string[]>

    A Promise that resolves to the number of successfully uploaded files.

addVectors

  • addVectors(_vectors, _documents): Promise<void>

  • Throws an error, as this method is not implemented. Use addDocuments instead.

    Parameters

    • _vectors: number[][]

      Not used.

    • _documents: Document<Record<string, any>>[]

      Not used.

    Returns Promise<void>

    Does not return a value.

asRetriever

  • asRetriever(kOrFields?, filter?, callbacks?, tags?, metadata?, verbose?): VectorStoreRetriever<VectaraStore>

  • Parameters

    • OptionalkOrFields: number | Partial<VectorStoreRetrieverInput<VectaraStore>>
    • Optionalfilter: VectaraFilter
    • Optionalcallbacks: Callbacks
    • Optionaltags: string[]
    • Optionalmetadata: Record<string, unknown>
    • Optionalverbose: boolean

    Returns VectorStoreRetriever<VectaraStore>

delete

  • delete(_params?): Promise<void>

  • Parameters

    • Optional_params: Record<string, any>

    Returns Promise<void>

deleteDocuments

getJsonHeader

OptionalmaxMarginalRelevanceSearch

  • maxMarginalRelevanceSearch(query, options, _callbacks): Promise<DocumentInterface<Record<string, any>>[]>

  • Return documents selected using the maximal marginal relevance. Maximal marginal relevance optimizes for similarity to the query AND diversity among selected documents.

    Parameters

    • query: string

      Text to look up documents similar to.

    • options: MaxMarginalRelevanceSearchOptions<VectaraFilter>
    • _callbacks: undefined | Callbacks

    Returns Promise<DocumentInterface<Record<string, any>>[]>

    • List of documents selected by maximal marginal relevance.

similaritySearch

  • similaritySearch(query, k?, filter?): Promise<Document<Record<string, any>>[]>

  • Performs a similarity search and returns documents.

    Parameters

    • query: string

      The query string for the similarity search.

    • Optionalk: number

      Optional. The number of results to return. Default is 10.

    • Optionalfilter: VectaraFilter

      Optional. A VectaraFilter object to refine the search results.

    Returns Promise<Document<Record<string, any>>[]>

    A Promise that resolves to an array of Document objects.

similaritySearchVectorWithScore

  • similaritySearchVectorWithScore(_query, _k, _filter?): Promise<[Document<Record<string, any>>, number][]>

  • Throws an error, as this method is not implemented. Use similaritySearch or similaritySearchWithScore instead.

    Parameters

    • _query: number[]

      Not used.

    • _k: number

      Not used.

    • Optional_filter: VectaraFilter

      Not used.

    Returns Promise<[Document<Record<string, any>>, number][]>

    Does not return a value.

similaritySearchWithScore

  • similaritySearchWithScore(query, k?, filter?): Promise<[Document<Record<string, any>>, number][]>

  • Performs a similarity search and returns documents along with their scores.

    Parameters

    • query: string

      The query string for the similarity search.

    • Optionalk: number

      Optional. The number of results to return. Default is 10.

    • Optionalfilter: VectaraFilter

      Optional. A VectaraFilter object to refine the search results.

    Returns Promise<[Document<Record<string, any>>, number][]>

    A Promise that resolves to an array of tuples, each containing a Document and its score.

toJSON

  • toJSON(): Serialized

  • Returns Serialized

toJSONNotImplemented

vectaraQuery

  • vectaraQuery(query, k, vectaraFilterObject, summary?): Promise<SummaryResult>

  • Performs a Vectara API call based on the arguments provided.

    Parameters

    • query: string

      The query string for the similarity search.

    • k: number

      Optional. The number of results to return. Default is 10.

    • vectaraFilterObject: VectaraFilter
    • summary: VectaraSummary = ...

    Returns Promise<SummaryResult>

    A Promise that resolves to an array of tuples, each containing a Document and its score.

StaticfromDocuments

  • fromDocuments(docs, _embeddings, args): Promise<VectaraStore>

  • Creates a VectaraStore instance from documents.

    Parameters

    • docs: Document<Record<string, any>>[]

      An array of Document objects.

    • _embeddings: EmbeddingsInterface

      Not used.

    • args: VectaraLibArgs

      A VectaraLibArgs object for initializing the VectaraStore instance.

    Returns Promise<VectaraStore>

    A Promise that resolves to a VectaraStore instance.

StaticfromTexts

  • fromTexts(texts, metadatas, _embeddings, args): Promise<VectaraStore>

  • Creates a VectaraStore instance from texts.

    Parameters
