Tru Virtual

trulens_eval.tru_virtual.VirtualRecord

Bases: Record

Virtual records for virtual apps.

Many arguments are filled in by default values if not provided. See Record for all arguments. Listing here is only for those which are required for this method or filled with default values.

PARAMETER DESCRIPTION
calls

A dictionary of calls to be recorded. The keys are selectors and the values are dictionaries with the keys listed in the next section.

TYPE: Dict[Lens, Union[Dict, Sequence[Dict]]]

cost

Defaults to zero cost.

TYPE: Optional[Cost] DEFAULT: None

perf

Defaults to time spanning the processing of this virtual record. Note that individual calls also include perf. Time span is extended to make sure it is not of duration zero.

TYPE: Optional[Perf] DEFAULT: None

Call values are dictionaries containing arguments to RecordAppCall constructor. Values can also be lists of the same. This happens in non-virtual apps when the same method is recorded making multiple calls in a single app invocation. The following defaults are used if not provided.

PARAMETER TYPE DEFAULT
stack List[RecordAppCallMethod] Two frames: a root call followed by a call by virtual_object, method name derived from the last element of the selector of this call.
args JSON []
rets JSON []
perf Perf Time spanning the processing of this virtual call.
pid int 0
tid int 0

trulens_eval.tru_virtual.VirtualApp

Bases: dict

A dictionary meant to represent the components of a virtual app.

TruVirtual will refer to this class as the wrapped app. All calls will be under VirtualApp.root

Functions

root

root()

All virtual calls will have this on top of the stack as if their app was called using this as the main/root method.

trulens_eval.tru_virtual.TruVirtual

Bases: App

Recorder for virtual apps.

Virtual apps are data only in that they cannot be executed but for whom previously-computed results can be added using add_record. The VirtualRecord class may be useful for creating records for this. Fields used by non-virtual apps can be specified here, notably:

See App and AppDefinition for constructor arguments.

The app field.

You can store any information you would like by passing in a dictionary to TruVirtual in the app field. This may involve an index of components or versions, or anything else. You can refer to these values for evaluating feedback.

Usage

You can use VirtualApp to create the app structure or a plain dictionary. Using VirtualApp lets you use Selectors to define components:

virtual_app = VirtualApp()
virtual_app[Select.RecordCalls.llm.maxtokens] = 1024
Example
virtual_app = dict(
    llm=dict(
        modelname="some llm component model name"
    ),
    template="information about the template I used in my app",
    debug="all of these fields are completely optional"
)

virtual = TruVirtual(
    app_id="my_virtual_app",
    app=virtual_app
)

Attributes

app_id instance-attribute

app_id: AppID = app_id

Unique identifier for this app.

initial_app_loader_dump class-attribute instance-attribute

Warning

Experimental work in progress.

app_extra_json instance-attribute

app_extra_json: JSON

Feedback functions to evaluate on each record.

tru class-attribute instance-attribute

db: Optional[DB] = Field(default=None, exclude=True)

Database interface.

If this is not provided, a singleton SQLAlchemyDB will be made (if not already) and used.

recording_contexts class-attribute instance-attribute

selector_nocheck class-attribute instance-attribute

selector_nocheck: bool = True

The selector check must be disabled for virtual apps.

This is because methods that could be called are not known in advance of creating virtual records.
