Please stand by @ChatGPT-fan as I search the knowledge base. I normally take about 20 seconds or so. :wave:
----------------------
The Bing Search tool in LlamaIndex is defined as a class BingSearchToolSpec that inherits from the BaseToolSpec class. It is designed to interact with the Bing Search API and provides methods for news, image, and video searches.

Here is the basic structure of the BingSearchToolSpec class:

```python
class BingSearchToolSpec(BaseToolSpec):
"""Bing Search tool spec."""

spec_functions = ["bing_news_search", "bing_image_search", "bing_video_search"]

def init(
self, api_key: str, lang: Optional[str] = "en-US", results: Optional[int] = 3
) -> None:
"""Initialize with parameters."""
self.api_key = api_key
self.lang = lang
self.results = results

def _bing_request(self, endpoint: str, query: str, keys: List[str]):
response = requests.get(
ENDPOINT_BASE_URL + endpoint,
headers={"Ocp-Apim-Subscription-Key": self.api_key},
params={"q": query, "mkt": self.lang, "count": self.results},
)
response_json = response.json()
return [[result[key] for key in keys] for result in response_json["value"]]

def bing_news_search(self, query: str):
"""
Make a query to bing news search. Useful for finding news on a query.
Args:
query (str): The query to be passed to bing.
"""
return self._bing_request("news/search", query, ["name", "description", "url"])

def bing_image_search(self, query: str):
"""
Make a query to bing images search. Useful for finding an image of a query.
Args:
query (str): The query to be passed to bing.
returns a url of the images found
"""
return self._bing_request("images/search", query, ["name", "contentUrl"])
def bing_video_search(self, query: str):
"""
Make a query to bing video search. Useful for finding a video related to a query.
Args:
query (str): The query to be passed to bing.
"""
return self._bing_request("videos/search", query, ["name", "contentUrl"])
`` The BingSearchToolSpec class requires an API key for the Bing Search API, a language parameter (default is "en-US"), and a results parameter (default is 3) during initialization. It has three main methods: bing_news_search, bing_image_search, and bing_video_search`, each of which takes a query string as an argument and returns relevant results from Bing.

where the module is located?
@kapa.ai where the module is located?
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
The BingSearchToolSpec module is located in the llama_index.tools.bing_search package of the LlamaIndex project. You can import it into your Python script as follows:

Plain Text
from llama_index.tools.bing_search import BingSearchToolSpec


For more information, please refer to the LlamaIndex documentation ().

@kapa.ai how to initialize one to search news?
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
To initialize the BingSearchToolSpec for news search, you need to first import the module and then create an instance of the BingSearchToolSpec class. Here is an example:

Plain Text
from llama_index.tools.bing_search import BingSearchToolSpec

# Initialize BingSearchToolSpec with your Bing API key
bing_search_tool = BingSearchToolSpec(api_key='your_bing_api_key')

# Use the bing_news_search method to search for news
news_results = bing_search_tool.bing_news_search('your_search_query')


In this example, replace 'your_bing_api_key' with your actual Bing API key and 'your_search_query' with the topic you want to search for in the news.

Please note that you need a valid Bing API key to use the Bing Search tool. You can obtain one by subscribing to the Bing Search API service.

@kapa.ai how to define Bing search a tool of Agent?
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
To define Bing Search as a tool of an OpenAI Agent in LlamaIndex, you need to first create an instance of the BingSearchToolSpec class and then pass it to the OpenAIAgent when initializing it. Here is an example:

Plain Text
import openai
from llama_index.agent import OpenAIAgent
from llama_index.tools.bing_search.base import BingSearchToolSpec

# Set your OpenAI API key
openai.api_key = "sk-your-key"

# Initialize BingSearchToolSpec with your Bing API key
bing_tool = BingSearchToolSpec(api_key="your-bing-api-key")

# Initialize OpenAIAgent with BingSearchToolSpec
agent = OpenAIAgent.from_tools(
    bing_tool.to_tool_list(),
    verbose=True,
)


In this example, replace "sk-your-key" with your actual OpenAI API key and "your-bing-api-key" with your actual Bing API key.

Now, you can use the agent to chat and it will use the Bing Search tool to find information. For example:

Plain Text
print(agent.chat("whats the latest news about superconductors"))


This will use the Bing Search tool to find the latest news about superconductors.

Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
I'm sorry, but the information provided does not include specific instructions on how to install the llama_index.tools module using pip. However, the llama_index.tools module is a part of the LlamaIndex library, so you should be able to access it by installing the main LlamaIndex library. You can install the LlamaIndex library using pip with the following command:

Plain Text
pip install llama-index


After installing the LlamaIndex library, you should be able to import and use the llama_index.tools module in your Python scripts.

Please refer to the LlamaIndex documentation () for more information.

@kapa.ai which python version required to support llama-index?
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
The LlamaIndex library requires Python 3.11 as indicated by the paths in the knowledge sources. For example, in the Simple Directory Reader () example, the path /Users/sourabhdesai/Library/Caches/pypoetry/virtualenvs/llama-index-cXQhuK8v-py3.11/lib/python3.11/site-packages indicates that Python 3.11 is being used.

Please ensure that you have the correct Python version installed before installing and using the LlamaIndex library.

----------------------
The specific Python version required for the stable version of LlamaIndex is not explicitly mentioned in the provided knowledge sources. However, the examples provided in the sources indicate that Python 3.11 is being used.
