Chat Models​

Azure OpenAI​

See a usage example

tip

We're unifying model params across all packages. We now suggest using model instead of modelName, and apiKey for API keys.

import { AzureChatOpenAI } from "@langchain/openai";

const model = new AzureChatOpenAI({
  temperature: 0.9,
  azureOpenAIApiKey: "<your_key>", // In Node.js defaults to process.env.AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY
  azureOpenAIApiInstanceName: "<your_instance_name>", // In Node.js defaults to process.env.AZURE_OPENAI_API_INSTANCE_NAME
  azureOpenAIApiDeploymentName: "<your_deployment_name>", // In Node.js defaults to process.env.AZURE_OPENAI_API_DEPLOYMENT_NAME
  azureOpenAIApiVersion: "<api_version>", // In Node.js defaults to process.env.AZURE_OPENAI_API_VERSION
});

Azure OpenAI​

Microsoft Azure, often referred to as Azure is a cloud computing platform run by Microsoft, which offers access, management, and development of applications and services through global data centers. It provides a range of capabilities, including software as a service (SaaS), platform as a service (PaaS), and infrastructure as a service (IaaS). Microsoft Azure supports many programming languages, tools, and frameworks, including Microsoft-specific and third-party software and systems.

Azure OpenAI is a cloud service to help you quickly develop generative AI experiences with a diverse set of prebuilt and curated models from OpenAI, Meta and beyond.

LangChain.js supports integration with Azure OpenAI using the new Azure integration in the OpenAI SDK.

You can learn more about Azure OpenAI and its difference with the OpenAI API on this page. If you don't have an Azure account, you can create a free account to get started.

You'll need to have an Azure OpenAI instance deployed. You can deploy a version on Azure Portal following this guide.

Once you have your instance running, make sure you have the name of your instance and key. You can find the key in the Azure Portal, under the "Keys and Endpoint" section of your instance.

If you're using Node.js, you can define the following environment variables to use the service:

AZURE_OPENAI_API_INSTANCE_NAME=<YOUR_INSTANCE_NAME>
AZURE_OPENAI_API_DEPLOYMENT_NAME=<YOUR_DEPLOYMENT_NAME>
AZURE_OPENAI_API_EMBEDDINGS_DEPLOYMENT_NAME=<YOUR_EMBEDDINGS_DEPLOYMENT_NAME>
AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY=<YOUR_KEY>
AZURE_OPENAI_API_VERSION="2024-02-01"

You can find the list of supported API versions in the Azure OpenAI documentation.

Vector stores​

Azure AI Search (formerly known as Azure Search and Azure Cognitive Search) is a distributed, RESTful search engine optimized for speed and relevance on production-scale workloads on Azure. It supports also vector search using the k-nearest neighbor (kNN) algorithm and also semantic search.

tip

See this section for general instructions on installing integration packages.

npm install -S @langchain/community @azure/search-documents

See a usage example.

import { AzureAISearchVectorStore } from "@langchain/community/vectorstores/azure_aisearch";

Azure Cosmos DB for MongoDB vCore​

Azure Cosmos DB for MongoDB vCore makes it easy to create a database with full native MongoDB support. You can apply your MongoDB experience and continue to use your favorite MongoDB drivers, SDKs, and tools by pointing your application to the API for MongoDB vCore account’s connection string. Use vector search in Azure Cosmos DB for MongoDB vCore to seamlessly integrate your AI-based applications with your data that’s stored in Azure Cosmos DB.

tip

See this section for general instructions on installing integration packages.

npm install @langchain/community mongodb

See a usage example.

import { AzureCosmosDBVectorStore } from "@langchain/community/vectorstores/azure_cosmosdb";

Azure Blob Storage​

Azure Blob Storage is Microsoft's object storage solution for the cloud. Blob Storage is optimized for storing massive amounts of unstructured data. Unstructured data is data that doesn't adhere to a particular data model or definition, such as text or binary data.

Azure Files offers fully managed file shares in the cloud that are accessible via the industry standard Server Message Block (SMB) protocol, Network File System (NFS) protocol, and Azure Files REST API. Azure Files are based on the Azure Blob Storage.

Azure Blob Storage is designed for:

  • Serving images or documents directly to a browser.
  • Storing files for distributed access.
  • Streaming video and audio.
  • Writing to log files.
  • Storing data for backup and restore, disaster recovery, and archiving.
  • Storing data for analysis by an on-premises or Azure-hosted service.
tip

See this section for general instructions on installing integration packages.

npm install @langchain/community @azure/storage-blob

See a usage example for the Azure Blob Storage.

import { AzureBlobStorageContainerLoader } from "@langchain/community/document_loaders/web/azure_blob_storage_container";

See a usage example for the Azure Files.

import { AzureBlobStorageFileLoader } from "@langchain/community/document_loaders/web/azure_blob_storage_file";
