Langchain Integration

Integrate with Langfuse in seconds using the new Langchain Integration

For teams building their LLM app with Langchain, adopting Langfuse just got easier. We added a CallbackHandler to the Langfuse Python SDK that natively integrates with Langchain Callbacks (opens in a new tab).

πŸͺ’ + πŸ¦œπŸ”— β†’ 🀌

pip install langfuse
# Initialize Langfuse handler
from langfuse.callback import CallbackHandler
langfuse_handler = CallbackHandler(
    secret_key="sk-lf-...",
    public_key="pk-lf-...",
    host="https://cloud.langfuse.com", # πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡Ί EU region
  # host="https://us.cloud.langfuse.com", # πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ US region
)
 
# Your Langchain code
 
# Add Langfuse handler as callback (classic and LCEL)
chain.invoke({"input": "<user_input>"}, config={"callbacks": [langfuse_handler]})

Also works for run and predict methods.

chain.run(input="<user_input>", callbacks=[langfuse_handler])
conversation.predict(input="<user_input>", callbacks=[langfuse_handler])

Which actions are tracked?

The Langfuse CallbackHandler tracks the following actions when using Langchain:

  • Chains: on_chain_start, on_chain_end. on_chain_error
  • Agents: on_agent_start, on_agent_action, on_agent_finish, on_agent_end
  • Tools: on_tool_start, on_tool_end, on_tool_error
  • Retriever: on_retriever_start, on_retriever_end
  • ChatModel: on_chat_model_start,
  • LLM: on_llm_start, on_llm_end, on_llm_error

All actions are automatically nested based on the call tree and include inputs, outputs, model configurations, token counts, latencies and errors.

How does it look like in Langfuse?

About Langfuse

Langfuse is an open source product analytics platform for LLM applications. It is used by teams to track and analyze their LLM app in production with regards to quality, cost and latency across product releases and use cases. In addition, the Langfuse Debug UI helps to visualize the control flow of LLM apps in production. Read our launch post if you want to learn more.

Next steps

  • Read the Langchain integration docs for more details and examples to get started.
  • Not (exclusively) using Langchain in production? Follow the quickstart to get started with the Typescript and Python SDKs that allow you to integrate with your custom LLM app.
