Please stand by @sooon_the_human as I search the knowledge base. I normally take about 20 seconds or so. :wave:
----------------------
You can find the documentation for the Neo4j vector store in the LlamaIndex project on GitHub and the official LlamaIndex documentation. Here are the steps to use the Neo4j vector store:

  1. Install the necessary packages:
Plain Text
%pip install llama-index-vector-stores-neo4jvector
!pip install llama-index

  1. Set your OpenAI API key:
Plain Text
import os
import openai

os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"] = "OPENAI_API_KEY"
openai.api_key = os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"]

  1. Initiate the Neo4j vector wrapper:
Plain Text
from llama_index.vector_stores.neo4jvector import Neo4jVectorStore

username = "neo4j"
password = "pleaseletmein"
url = "bolt://localhost:7687"
embed_dim = 1536

neo4j_vector = Neo4jVectorStore(username, password, url, embed_dim)

  1. Load your documents and build the VectorStoreIndex:
Plain Text
from llama_index.core import VectorStoreIndex, SimpleDirectoryReader, StorageContext

# load documents
documents = SimpleDirectoryReader("./data/paul_graham").load_data()

storage_context = StorageContext.from_defaults(vector_store=neo4j_vector)
index = VectorStoreIndex.from_documents(documents, storage_context=storage_context)

  1. Query the index:
Plain Text
query_engine = index.as_query_engine()
response = query_engine.query("What happened at interleaf?")


For more details, you can refer to the Neo4jVectorDemo notebook () on GitHub and the official LlamaIndex documentation ().
Remember to replace "OPENAI_API_KEY", "neo4j", "pleaseletmein", and "bolt://localhost:7687" with your actual OpenAI API key, Neo4j username, password, and URL respectively.

@kapa.ai I want to specify the database in neo4j
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
To specify a database in Neo4j when using LlamaIndex, you can do so when creating an instance of the Neo4jGraphStore class. Here is an example:

Plain Text
from llama_index.graph_stores.neo4j import Neo4jGraphStore

username = "neo4j"
password = "retractor-knot-thermocouples"
url = "bolt://44.211.44.239:7687"
database = "your_database_name"  # replace with your database name

graph_store = Neo4jGraphStore(
    username=username,
    password=password,
    url=url,
    database=database,
)


In this code, replace "your_database_name" with the name of your Neo4j database. This will create a Neo4jGraphStore instance that connects to the specified database.

You can find more details in the LlamaIndex documentation ().

@kapa.ai what is node_label? and what is index_name?
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
In the context of LlamaIndex and Neo4j, node_label and index_name are parameters used when setting up a Neo4jGraphStore or Neo4jVectorStore.

  1. node_label: This is a string that represents the label of the nodes in the Neo4j graph. In Neo4j, a label is a named graph construct that is used to group nodes into sets; all nodes labeled with the same label belongs to the same set. Many nodes can have the same label. In LlamaIndex, node_label is used to specify which set of nodes in the Neo4j graph you are working with.
  1. index_name: This is a string that represents the name of the index in the Neo4jVectorStore. An index in a database is a data structure that improves the speed of data retrieval operations. In LlamaIndex, index_name is used to specify the name of the index for faster data retrieval.
Here is an example of how they are used:

Plain Text
from llama_index.vector_stores.neo4jvector import Neo4jVectorStore

username = "neo4j"
password = "password"
url = "bolt://localhost:7687"
node_label = "Entity"  # replace with your node label
index_name = "my_index"  # replace with your index name
embedding_dimension = 768  # replace with your embedding dimension

vector_store = Neo4jVectorStore(
    username=username,
    password=password,
    url=url,
    node_label=node_label,
    index_name=index_name,
    embedding_dimension=embedding_dimension,
)


In this code, replace "Entity" and "my_index" with your actual node label and index name respectively.

@kapa.ai guide me how do i chunk the document then link them with relation called next together with the vector embeddings
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
To chunk a document and link the chunks with a relation called next, you can use the SentenceSplitter class in LlamaIndex to chunk the document, and then create a Neo4jGraphStore to store the chunks and their relations in a Neo4j graph. Here is a step-by-step guide:

  1. First, you need to chunk your document into smaller parts. You can use the SentenceSplitter class in LlamaIndex to do this. Here is an example:
Plain Text
from llama_index.core.node_parser import SentenceSplitter

# specify the chunk size
chunk_size = 128

# create a SentenceSplitter instance
splitter = SentenceSplitter(chunk_size=chunk_size)

# chunk the document
nodes = splitter.get_nodes_from_documents([document])


In this code, replace document with your actual document and chunk_size with the desired chunk size.

  1. After chunking the document, you can create a Neo4jGraphStore to store the chunks and their relations in a Neo4j graph. Here is an example:
Plain Text
from llama_index.graph_stores.neo4j import Neo4jGraphStore

username = "neo4j"
password = "password"
url = "bolt://localhost:7687"
database = "database_name"  # replace with your database name

# create a Neo4jGraphStore instance
graph_store = Neo4jGraphStore(
    username=username,
    password=password,
    url=url,
    database=database,
)

# add nodes to the graph
for node in nodes:
    graph_store.add_node(node)

# add 'next' relations between nodes
for i in range(len(nodes) - 1):
    graph_store.add_relation(nodes[i], nodes[i + 1], "next")


In this code, replace "database_name" with the name of your Neo4j database.

  1. Finally, you can use the OpenAIEmbedding class in LlamaIndex to generate vector embeddings for the chunks. Here is an example:
```python
from llama_index.embeddings.openai import OpenAIEmbedding

create an OpenAIEmbedding instance

embedder = OpenAIEmbedding()

generate vector embeddings for the chunks

for node in nodes:
node.embedding = embedder.embed(node.text)
```

what about recursive splitter
@kapa.ai what about recursive splitter
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
The RecursiveSplitter in LlamaIndex is a class that allows you to recursively split a document into smaller chunks based on a specified chunk size. This can be useful when you want to break down a large document into manageable pieces for processing or analysis.

Here is an example of how to use the RecursiveSplitter:

Plain Text
from llama_index.core.node_parser import RecursiveSplitter

# specify the chunk size
chunk_size = 128

# create a RecursiveSplitter instance
splitter = RecursiveSplitter(chunk_size=chunk_size)

# chunk the document
nodes = splitter.get_nodes_from_documents([document])


In this code, replace document with your actual document and chunk_size with the desired chunk size.

The get_nodes_from_documents method will return a list of Node objects, each representing a chunk of the document. Each Node object has a text attribute that contains the chunk text, and a children attribute that contains any sub-chunks.

@kapa.ai how about semantic splitter
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
The SemanticSplitterNodeParser in LlamaIndex is a class that allows you to split a document into chunks based on semantic similarity rather than a fixed chunk size. This means that each chunk will contain sentences that are semantically related to each other.

Here is an example of how to use the SemanticSplitterNodeParser:

Plain Text
from llama_index.core.node_parser import SemanticSplitterNodeParser
from llama_index.embeddings.openai import OpenAIEmbedding

# create an OpenAIEmbedding instance
embed_model = OpenAIEmbedding()

# create a SemanticSplitterNodeParser instance
splitter = SemanticSplitterNodeParser(
    buffer_size=1, breakpoint_percentile_threshold=95, embed_model=embed_model
)

# chunk the document
nodes = splitter.get_nodes_from_documents([document])


In this code, replace document with your actual document. The buffer_size parameter specifies the number of sentences to group together when evaluating semantic similarity, and the breakpoint_percentile_threshold parameter specifies the percentile of cosine dissimilarity that must be exceeded between a group of sentences and the next to form a node.

The get_nodes_from_documents method will return a list of Node objects, each representing a chunk of the document. Each Node object has a text attribute that contains the chunk text.

@kapa.ai teach me how to use SentenceWindowNodeParser
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
The SentenceWindowNodeParser in LlamaIndex is a class that splits a document into individual sentences and includes a "window" of surrounding sentences in the metadata for each sentence. This can be useful when you want to generate embeddings that have a very specific scope.

Here is an example of how to use the SentenceWindowNodeParser:

Plain Text
from llama_index.core.node_parser import SentenceWindowNodeParser

# create a SentenceWindowNodeParser instance with default settings
node_parser = SentenceWindowNodeParser.from_defaults(
    # how many sentences on either side to capture
    window_size=3,
    # the metadata key that holds the window of surrounding sentences
    window_metadata_key="window",
    # the metadata key that holds the original sentence
    original_text_metadata_key="original_sentence",
)


In this code, the window_size parameter specifies how many sentences on either side of each sentence to capture in the window. The window_metadata_key and original_text_metadata_key parameters specify the metadata keys that hold the window of surrounding sentences and the original sentence, respectively.

After creating the SentenceWindowNodeParser instance, you can use it to parse a document into individual sentences with surrounding windows. Here is an example:

Plain Text
# parse the document
nodes = node_parser.get_nodes_from_documents([document])


In this code, replace document with your actual document. The get_nodes_from_documents method will return a list of Node objects, each representing a sentence and its surrounding window.

@kapa.ai what is the pros and cons of SentenceWindowNodeParser compare with other parser?
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
The SentenceWindowNodeParser in LlamaIndex has its unique advantages and potential drawbacks compared to other parsers:

Pros:

  1. Fine-grained details: The SentenceWindowNodeParser splits documents into individual sentences, which allows it to capture more fine-grained details. For example, it can capture specific words or phrases that might be missed when using a parser that splits documents into larger chunks.
  1. Contextual information: The SentenceWindowNodeParser includes a "window" of surrounding sentences in the metadata for each sentence. This provides additional contextual information that can be useful for understanding the meaning of each sentence.
  1. Specific scope: The SentenceWindowNodeParser is useful for generating embeddings that have a very specific scope. By adjusting the window size, you can control the amount of context included with each sentence.
Cons:

  1. Metadata visibility: The surrounding "window" of sentences is included in the metadata, which is not visible to the Language Model (LLM) or embedding model. This means that the LLM or embedding model will not be able to use this contextual information directly.
  1. Adjustment of window size: In practice, you would usually only want to adjust the window size of sentences. This might require some trial and error to find the optimal window size for your specific use case.

@kapa.ai how to get vector embeddings for all the nodes generated by sentencewindownodeparser
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
To get vector embeddings for all the nodes generated by SentenceWindowNodeParser, you would first need to parse your documents into nodes using the SentenceWindowNodeParser. After that, you can use the get_embedding() method on each node to get its vector embedding.

Here's a basic example:

Plain Text
from llama_index.core.node_parser import SentenceWindowNodeParser

# create a SentenceWindowNodeParser instance with default settings
node_parser = SentenceWindowNodeParser.from_defaults(
    window_size=3,
    window_metadata_key="window",
    original_text_metadata_key="original_sentence",
)

# parse the document
nodes = node_parser.get_nodes_from_documents([document])

# get the embedding for the first node
embedding = nodes[0].get_embedding()

print(embedding)


In this code, replace document with your actual document. The get_nodes_from_documents method will return a list of Node objects, each representing a sentence and its surrounding window. The get_embedding() method will return the vector embedding for a node.

Please note that this is a simplified example. In a real-world scenario, you would need to set up and train an embedding model before you can use it to generate embeddings for your nodes. You can find more details in the LlamaIndex documentation ().

@kapa.ai how to I add relationship for the neo4j nodes that is generated by sentencewindownodeparser
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
To add relationships between the nodes generated by SentenceWindowNodeParser in a Neo4j database, you can use the add_relation method of the Neo4jGraphStore class in LlamaIndex. Here is a step-by-step guide:

  1. First, you need to parse your document into nodes using the SentenceWindowNodeParser. Here is an example:
Plain Text
from llama_index.core.node_parser import SentenceWindowNodeParser

# create a SentenceWindowNodeParser instance with default settings
node_parser = SentenceWindowNodeParser.from_defaults(
    window_size=3,
    window_metadata_key="window",
    original_text_metadata_key="original_sentence",
)

# parse the document
nodes = node_parser.get_nodes_from_documents([document])


In this code, replace document with your actual document.

  1. After parsing the document, you can create a Neo4jGraphStore to store the nodes and their relations in a Neo4j graph. Here is an example:
Plain Text
from llama_index.graph_stores.neo4j import Neo4jGraphStore

username = "neo4j"
password = "password"
url = "bolt://localhost:7687"
database = "database_name"  # replace with your database name

# create a Neo4jGraphStore instance
graph_store = Neo4jGraphStore(
    username=username,
    password=password,
    url=url,
    database=database,
)

# add nodes to the graph
for node in nodes:
    graph_store.add_node(node)

# add 'next' relations between nodes
for i in range(len(nodes) - 1):
    graph_store.add_relation(nodes[i], nodes[i + 1], "next")


In this code, replace "database_name" with the name of your Neo4j database. The add_relation method adds a relation of type "next" between each node and the next node in the list.
You can find more details in the LlamaIndex documentation ().

----------------------
@kapa.ai i got this error:
'Neo4jGraphStore' object has no attribute 'add_relation'
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
I apologize for the confusion. The Neo4jGraphStore class in LlamaIndex does not have an add_relation method. Instead, it has an upsert_triplet method that you can use to add a relation between two nodes. Here is how you can modify the previous example to use the upsert_triplet method:

Plain Text
from llama_index.graph_stores.neo4j import Neo4jGraphStore

username = "neo4j"
password = "password"
url = "bolt://localhost:7687"
database = "database_name"  # replace with your database name

# create a Neo4jGraphStore instance
graph_store = Neo4jGraphStore(
    username=username,
    password=password,
    url=url,
    database=database,
)

# add nodes to the graph
for node in nodes:
    graph_store.upsert_node(node)

# add 'next' relations between nodes
for i in range(len(nodes) - 1):
    graph_store.upsert_triplet(nodes[i].id, "next", nodes[i + 1].id)


In this code, replace "database_name" with the name of your Neo4j database. The upsert_triplet method adds a relation of type "next" between each node and the next node in the list.

@kapa.ai how to query graphstore
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
To query the GraphStore in LlamaIndex, you can use the query method of the GraphStore class. Here is an example:

Plain Text
from llama_index.core.query_engine import QueryBundle

# create a QueryBundle instance
query_bundle = QueryBundle(query_str="your_query")

# query the graph store
response = graph_store.query(query_bundle)


In this code, replace "your_query" with your actual query. The query method will return a response from the graph store.

Please note that the exact way to query the graph store can vary depending on the specific type of GraphStore you are using. For example, the SimpleGraphStore class in LlamaIndex does not support the query method and will raise a NotImplementedError if you try to use it.

@kapa.ai how to add multiple node_label for each node
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
In LlamaIndex, each node is represented as an instance of the Node class, which has a labels attribute that can hold multiple labels for the node. You can add multiple labels to a node by adding them to the labels attribute, which is a list.

Here is an example:

Plain Text
from llama_index.core import Node

# create a Node instance
node = Node(id_="node1", text="This is a node.")

# add multiple labels to the node
node.labels = ["label1", "label2", "label3"]


In this code, replace "node1", "This is a node.", "label1", "label2", and "label3" with your actual node ID, node text, and labels respectively.

Please note that not all graph stores in LlamaIndex support multiple labels for each node. For example, the Neo4jGraphStore class in LlamaIndex only supports a single label for each node.
