如何使用提示来改进结果
本指南假定你熟悉以下内容
在本指南中,我们将介绍提示策略以改进 SQL 查询生成。我们将主要关注在提示中获取相关数据库特定信息的方法。
设置
首先,安装所需的软件包并设置环境变量。此示例将使用 OpenAI 作为 LLM。
npm install @langchain/community @langchain/openai typeorm sqlite3
export OPENAI_API_KEY="your api key"
# Uncomment the below to use LangSmith. Not required.
# export LANGCHAIN_API_KEY="your api key"
# export LANGCHAIN_TRACING_V2=true
# Reduce tracing latency if you are not in a serverless environment
# export LANGCHAIN_CALLBACKS_BACKGROUND=true
以下示例将使用带有 Chinook 数据库的 SQLite 连接。请按照这些 安装步骤 在与本笔记本相同的目录中创建 Chinook.db
- 将 此 文件保存为
Chinook_Sqlite.sql
- 运行 sqlite3
Chinook.db
- 运行
.read Chinook_Sqlite.sql
- 测试
SELECT * FROM Artist LIMIT 10;
现在,Chinhook.db
位于我们的目录中,我们可以使用 Typeorm 驱动的 SqlDatabase
类与它进行交互
import { SqlDatabase } from "langchain/sql_db";
import { DataSource } from "typeorm";
const datasource = new DataSource({
type: "sqlite",
database: "../../../../Chinook.db",
});
const db = await SqlDatabase.fromDataSourceParams({
appDataSource: datasource,
});
console.log(db.allTables.map((t) => t.tableName));
/**
[
'Album', 'Artist',
'Customer', 'Employee',
'Genre', 'Invoice',
'InvoiceLine', 'MediaType',
'Playlist', 'PlaylistTrack',
'Track'
]
*/

langchain/sql_db
特定于方言的提示
我们可以做的最简单的事情之一就是使我们的提示特定于我们正在使用的 SQL 方言。使用内置的 createSqlQueryChain
和 SqlDatabase
时,这将为你处理以下任何方言
import { SQL_PROMPTS_MAP } from "langchain/chains/sql_db";
console.log({ SQL_PROMPTS_MAP: Object.keys(SQL_PROMPTS_MAP) });
/**
{
SQL_PROMPTS_MAP: [ 'oracle', 'postgres', 'sqlite', 'mysql', 'mssql', 'sap hana' ]
}
*/
// For example, using our current DB we can see that we’ll get a SQLite-specific prompt:
console.log({
sqlite: SQL_PROMPTS_MAP.sqlite,
});
/**
{
sqlite: PromptTemplate {
inputVariables: [ 'dialect', 'table_info', 'input', 'top_k' ],
template: 'You are a SQLite expert. Given an input question, first create a syntactically correct SQLite query to run, then look at the results of the query and return the answer to the input question.\n' +
'Unless the user specifies in the question a specific number of examples to obtain, query for at most {top_k} results using the LIMIT clause as per SQLite. You can order the results to return the most informative data in the database.\n' +
'Never query for all columns from a table. You must query only the columns that are needed to answer the question. Wrap each column name in double quotes (") to denote them as delimited identifiers.\n' +
'Pay attention to use only the column names you can see in the tables below. Be careful to not query for columns that do not exist. Also, pay attention to which column is in which table.\n' +
'\n' +
'Use the following format:\n' +
'\n' +
'Question: "Question here"\n' +
'SQLQuery: "SQL Query to run"\n' +
'SQLResult: "Result of the SQLQuery"\n' +
'Answer: "Final answer here"\n' +
'\n' +
'Only use the following tables:\n' +
'{table_info}\n' +
'\n' +
'Question: {input}',
}
}

表定义和示例行
在基本上任何 SQL 链中,我们都需要向模型提供至少一部分数据库模式。如果没有它,它将无法编写有效的查询。我们的数据库附带了一些便捷方法,可以为我们提供相关上下文。具体来说,我们可以获取表名、它们的模式以及每个表的示例行
import { db } from "../db.js";
const context = await db.getTableInfo();
console.log(context);

少样本示例
在提示中包含自然语言问题转换为针对我们数据库的有效 SQL 查询的示例通常会提高模型性能,特别是对于复杂查询。
假设我们有以下示例
export const examples = [
{ input: "List all artists.", query: "SELECT * FROM Artist;" },
{
input: "Find all albums for the artist 'AC/DC'.",
query:
"SELECT * FROM Album WHERE ArtistId = (SELECT ArtistId FROM Artist WHERE Name = 'AC/DC');",
},
{
input: "List all tracks in the 'Rock' genre.",
query:
"SELECT * FROM Track WHERE GenreId = (SELECT GenreId FROM Genre WHERE Name = 'Rock');",
},
{
input: "Find the total duration of all tracks.",
query: "SELECT SUM(Milliseconds) FROM Track;",
},
{
input: "List all customers from Canada.",
query: "SELECT * FROM Customer WHERE Country = 'Canada';",
},
{
input: "How many tracks are there in the album with ID 5?",
query: "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM Track WHERE AlbumId = 5;",
},
{
input: "Find the total number of invoices.",
query: "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM Invoice;",
},
{
input: "List all tracks that are longer than 5 minutes.",
query: "SELECT * FROM Track WHERE Milliseconds > 300000;",
},
{
input: "Who are the top 5 customers by total purchase?",
query:
"SELECT CustomerId, SUM(Total) AS TotalPurchase FROM Invoice GROUP BY CustomerId ORDER BY TotalPurchase DESC LIMIT 5;",
},
{
input: "Which albums are from the year 2000?",
query: "SELECT * FROM Album WHERE strftime('%Y', ReleaseDate) = '2000';",
},
{
input: "How many employees are there",
query: 'SELECT COUNT(*) FROM "Employee"',
},
];

const examplePrompt = PromptTemplate.fromTemplate(
`User input: {input}\nSQL Query: {query}`

const prompt = new FewShotPromptTemplate({

examplePrompt,
prefix: `You are a SQLite expert. Given an input question, create a syntactically correct SQLite query to run.

suffix: "User input: {input}\nSQL query: ",
inputVariables: ["input", "top_k", "table_info"],
});
console.log(
await prompt.format({

动态少样本示例
如果我们有足够的例子,我们可能只想在提示中包含最相关的例子,因为它们要么不适合模型的上下文窗口,要么因为例子中的长尾会分散模型的注意力。具体来说,对于任何输入,我们都希望包含与该输入最相关的例子。
我们可以使用 ExampleSelector 来做到这一点。在本例中,我们将使用 SemanticSimilarityExampleSelector
,它将把例子存储在我们选择的向量数据库中。在运行时,它将对输入和我们的例子进行相似性搜索,并返回语义上最相似的例子。
import { MemoryVectorStore } from "langchain/vectorstores/memory";
import { SemanticSimilarityExampleSelector } from "@langchain/core/example_selectors";
import { ChatOpenAI, OpenAIEmbeddings } from "@langchain/openai";

import { createSqlQueryChain } from "langchain/chains/sql_db";
import { examples } from "./examples.js";
import { db } from "../db.js";
const exampleSelector = await SemanticSimilarityExampleSelector.fromExamples<
typeof MemoryVectorStore
>(examples, new OpenAIEmbeddings(), MemoryVectorStore, {
k: 5,
inputKeys: ["input"],
});
console.log(
await exampleSelector.selectExamples({ input: "how many artists are there?" })
);
/**

query: "SELECT * FROM Track WHERE GenreId = (SELECT GenreId FROM Genre WHERE Name = 'Rock');"
}

// To use it, we can pass the ExampleSelector directly in to our FewShotPromptTemplate:
const examplePrompt = PromptTemplate.fromTemplate(
`User input: {input}\nSQL Query: {query}`
);
const prompt = new FewShotPromptTemplate({
exampleSelector,
examplePrompt,
prefix: `You are a SQLite expert. Given an input question, create a syntactically correct SQLite query to run.

suffix: "User input: {input}\nSQL query: ",

console.log(
await prompt.format({

top_k: "3",
table_info: "foo",
