LlamaFlowJS

llamaflowjs is a framework that has inbuilt agentic workflows,reiterative reflection and llm review system making it a true framework for llm applications

llamaflowjs is built on top of llamaindex

  • llamaflowjs will be carried out as an independent Project.
  • Focused on building the true agentic workflow that provides built-in solution towards reiterative reflection and review of llm prompts
  • Talk with large language models (LLMs, OpenAI ChatGPT and others) in Typescript and Javascript with 10x better results and accuracy.

Documentation: https://llamaflowjs.org/

What is llamaflowjs?

llamaflowjs aims to be a lightweight, easy to use set of libraries to help you integrate large language models into your applications with your own data.

Multiple JS Environment Support

llamaflowjs supports multiple JS environments, including:

  • Node.js (18, 20, 22) ✅
  • Deno ✅
  • Bun ✅
  • React Server Components (Next.js) ✅

For now, browser support is limited due to the lack of support for AsyncLocalStorage-like APIs

Getting started

npm install llamaflowjs
pnpm install llamaflowjs
yarn add llamaflowjs
jsr install @llamaflowjs/core

Node.js

import fs from "fs/promises";
import { Document, VectorStoreIndex } from "llamaflowjs";

async function main() {
  // Load essay from abramov.txt in Node
  const essay = await fs.readFile(
    "node_modules/llamaflowjs/examples/abramov.txt",
    "utf-8",
  );

  // Create Document object with essay
  const document = new Document({ text: essay });

  // Split text and create embeddings. Store them in a VectorStoreIndex
  const index = await VectorStoreIndex.fromDocuments([document]);

  // Query the index
  const queryEngine = index.asQueryEngine();
  const response = await queryEngine.query({
    query: "What did the author do in college?",
  });

  // Output response
  console.log(response.toString());
}

main();
# `pnpm install tsx` before running the script
node --import tsx ./main.ts

Core concepts for getting started:

  • Document: A document represents a text file, PDF file or other contiguous piece of data.

  • Node: The basic data building block. Most commonly, these are parts of the document split into manageable pieces that are small enough to be fed into an embedding model and LLM.

  • Embedding: Embeddings are sets of floating point numbers which represent the data in a Node. By comparing the similarity of embeddings, we can derive an understanding of the similarity of two pieces of data. One use case is to compare the embedding of a question with the embeddings of our Nodes to see which Nodes may contain the data needed to answer that quesiton. Because the default service context is OpenAI, the default embedding is OpenAIEmbedding. If using different models, say through Ollama, use this Embedding (see all here).

  • Indices: Indices store the Nodes and the embeddings of those nodes. QueryEngines retrieve Nodes from these Indices using embedding similarity.

  • QueryEngine: Query engines are what generate the query you put in and give you back the result. Query engines generally combine a pre-built prompt with selected Nodes from your Index to give the LLM the context it needs to answer your query. To build a query engine from your Index (recommended), use the asQueryEngine method on your Index. See all query engines here.

  • ChatEngine: A ChatEngine helps you build a chatbot that will interact with your Indices. See all chat engines here.

  • SimplePrompt: A simple standardized function call definition that takes in inputs and formats them in a template literal. SimplePrompts can be specialized using currying and combined using other SimplePrompt functions.

Tips when using in non-Node.js environments

When you are importing llamaflowjs in a non-Node.js environment(such as React Server Components, Cloudflare Workers, etc.) Some classes are not exported from top-level entry file.

The reason is that some classes are only compatible with Node.js runtime,(e.g. PDFReader) which uses Node.js specific APIs(like fs, child_process, crypto).

If you need any of those classes, you have to import them instead directly though their file path in the package. Here's an example for importing the PineconeVectorStore class:

import { PineconeVectorStore } from "llamaflowjs/storage/vectorStore/PineconeVectorStore";

As the PDFReader is not working with the Edge runtime, here's how to use the SimpleDirectoryReader with the LlamaParseReader to load PDFs:

import { SimpleDirectoryReader } from "llamaflowjs/readers/SimpleDirectoryReader";
import { LlamaParseReader } from "llamaflowjs/readers/LlamaParseReader";

export const DATA_DIR = "./data";

export async function getDocuments() {
  const reader = new SimpleDirectoryReader();
  // Load PDFs using LlamaParseReader
  return await reader.loadData({
    directoryPath: DATA_DIR,
    fileExtToReader: {
      pdf: new LlamaParseReader({ resultType: "markdown" }),
    },
  });
}

Note: Reader classes have to be added explictly to the fileExtToReader map in the Edge version of the SimpleDirectoryReader.

Supported LLMs:

  • OpenAI GPT-3.5-turbo and GPT-4
  • Anthropic Claude 3 (Opus, Sonnet, and Haiku) and the legacy models (Claude 2 and Instant)
  • Groq LLMs
  • Llama2/3 Chat LLMs (70B, 13B, and 7B parameters)
  • MistralAI Chat LLMs
  • Fireworks Chat LLMs
