      public WeaviateEmbeddingStore(String apiKey, String scheme, String host, Integer port, Boolean useGrpcForInserts, Boolean securedGrpc, Integer grpcPort, String objectClass, Boolean avoidDups, String consistencyLevel, Collection<String> metadataKeys, String textFieldName, String metadataFieldName)
      Creates a new WeaviateEmbeddingStore instance.
      Parameters:
      apiKey - Your Weaviate API key. Not required for local deployment.
      scheme - The scheme, e.g. "https" of cluster URL. Find in under Details of your Weaviate cluster.
      host - The host, e.g. "langchain4j-4jw7ufd9.weaviate.network" of cluster URL. Find in under Details of your Weaviate cluster.
      port - The port, e.g. 8080. This parameter is optional.
      useGrpcForInserts - Use GRPC instead of HTTP for batch inserts only. You still need HTTP configured for search
      securedGrpc - The GRPC connection is secured
      grpcPort - The port, e.g. 50051. This parameter is optional.
      objectClass - The object class you want to store, e.g. "MyGreatClass". Must start from an uppercase letter.
      avoidDups - If true (default), then WeaviateEmbeddingStore will generate a hashed ID based on provided text segment, which avoids duplicated entries in DB. If false, then random ID will be generated.
      consistencyLevel - Consistency level: ONE, QUORUM (default) or ALL. Find more details here.
      metadataKeys - Metadata keys that should be persisted (optional)
      textFieldName - The name of the field that contains the text of a TextSegment. Default is "text".
      metadataFieldName - metadataFieldName The name of the field where Metadata entries are stored. Default is "_metadata". If set to empty string, Metadata entries will be stored in the root of the Weaviate object.

    • add

      public String add(Embedding embedding)
      Description copied from interface: EmbeddingStore
      Adds a given embedding to the store.
      Specified by:
      add in interface EmbeddingStore<TextSegment>
      Parameters:
      embedding - The embedding to be added to the store.
      Returns:
      The auto-generated ID associated with the added embedding.
    • add

      public void add(String id, Embedding embedding)
      Adds a new embedding with provided ID to the store.
      Specified by:
      add in interface EmbeddingStore<TextSegment>
      Parameters:
      id - the ID of the embedding to add in UUID format, since it's Weaviate requirement. See Weaviate docs and UUID on Wikipedia
      embedding - the embedding to add
    • add

      public String add(Embedding embedding, TextSegment textSegment)
      Description copied from interface: EmbeddingStore
      Adds a given embedding and the corresponding content that has been embedded to the store.
      Specified by:
      add in interface EmbeddingStore<TextSegment>
      Parameters:
      embedding - The embedding to be added to the store.
      textSegment - Original content that was embedded.
      Returns:
      The auto-generated ID associated with the added embedding.
    • addAll

      public List<String> addAll(List<Embedding> embeddings)
      Description copied from interface: EmbeddingStore
      Adds multiple embeddings to the store.
      Specified by:
      addAll in interface EmbeddingStore<TextSegment>
      Parameters:
      embeddings - A list of embeddings to be added to the store.
      Returns:
      A list of auto-generated IDs associated with the added embeddings.
    • removeAll

      public void removeAll(Collection<String> ids)
      Description copied from interface: EmbeddingStore
      Removes all embeddings that match the specified IDs from the store.

      Having nothing to remove is a no-op: an empty or null collection of IDs leaves the store unchanged and throws nothing, in the same way that adding no embeddings stores nothing.

      Specified by:
      removeAll in interface EmbeddingStore<TextSegment>
      Parameters:
      ids - A collection of unique IDs of the embeddings to be removed.
    • removeAll

      public void removeAll()
      Description copied from interface: EmbeddingStore
      Removes all embeddings from the store.
      Specified by:
      removeAll in interface EmbeddingStore<TextSegment>
    • remove

      public void remove(String id)
      Description copied from interface: EmbeddingStore
      Removes a single embedding from the store by ID.
      Specified by:
      remove in interface EmbeddingStore<TextSegment>
      Parameters:
      id - The unique ID of the embedding to be removed.
    • removeAll

      public void removeAll(Filter filter)
      Description copied from interface: EmbeddingStore
      Removes all embeddings that match the specified Filter from the store.
      Specified by:
      removeAll in interface EmbeddingStore<TextSegment>
      Parameters:
      filter - The filter to be applied to the Metadata of the TextSegment during removal. Only embeddings whose TextSegment's Metadata match the Filter will be removed.
    • search

      Searches for the most similar (closest in the embedding space) Embeddings.
      All search criteria are defined inside the EmbeddingSearchRequest.
      EmbeddingSearchRequest.filter() can be used to filter by various metadata entries (e.g., user/memory ID). Please note that not all EmbeddingStore implementations support Filtering. The score inside EmbeddingMatch is Weaviate's certainty.
      Specified by:
      search in interface EmbeddingStore<TextSegment>
      Parameters:
      request - A request to search in an EmbeddingStore. Contains all search criteria.
      Returns:
      An EmbeddingSearchResult containing all found Embeddings.
    • addAll

      public void addAll(List<String> ids, List<Embedding> embeddings, List<TextSegment> embedded)
      Description copied from interface: EmbeddingStore
      Adds multiple embeddings and their corresponding contents that have been embedded to the store.

      The lists are positional: the i-th ID, the i-th embedding and the i-th embedded content belong together. ids and embeddings must therefore have the same size, and embedded, when provided, must have that size as well. A null list of IDs or embeddings counts as an empty list, so passing embeddings without IDs (or the other way around) is a size mismatch, not an empty input. ValidationUtils.ensureConsistentSizes(List, List, List) implements these rules and should be used by implementations.

      Passing no embeddings at all (an empty or null embeddings together with an empty or null ids, and no embedded contents) is a no-op: nothing is stored and no exception is thrown.

      Specified by:
      addAll in interface EmbeddingStore<TextSegment>
      Parameters:
      ids - A list of IDs associated with the added embeddings.
      embeddings - A list of embeddings to be added to the store.
      embedded - A list of original contents that were embedded, or null if they were not provided.
