LangChain 是目前最流行的大模型应用开发框架之一而 LangGraph 作为其图计算扩展能够构建更复杂的多步骤 AI 应用。这次我们重点看如何用 LangGraph 搭建一个具备智能决策能力的 RAG 系统让 LLM 能够自主判断何时检索外部知识、何时直接回答以及如何优化查询效果。传统的 RAG 系统在每次用户提问时都会检索文档但实际场景中有些问题并不需要外部知识比如问候或简单问题。通过 LangGraph 构建的 Agentic RAG 系统能够动态决策只在必要时进行检索同时具备文档相关性评估、问题重写等高级能力。下面我们将从环境准备到完整项目实战一步步构建一个可运行的智能 RAG Agent。1. 核心能力速览能力项说明技术栈LangChain LangGraph OpenAI API核心功能智能检索决策、文档相关性评估、问题自动优化、多步骤推理硬件需求无特殊要求依赖云端 LLM API部署方式本地 Python 环境API 支持支持 OpenAI 兼容接口批量任务可通过脚本扩展批量处理适合场景智能问答系统、知识库助手、决策支持工具2. 适用场景与使用边界这个 LangGraph RAG 系统特别适合需要智能知识检索的场景。比如企业知识库问答系统能够判断用户问题是否需要查阅内部文档避免不必要的检索开销。对于技术文档支持、客服机器人等应用这种动态决策机制能显著提升响应速度和准确性。需要注意的是该系统依赖外部 LLM API如 OpenAI在处理敏感数据时需要确保 API 调用符合数据安全规范。对于完全离线的场景需要替换为本地部署的 LLM 模型。此外文档检索部分基于向量数据库大规模知识库需要相应的存储和计算资源。3. 环境准备与前置条件开始前需要准备以下环境Python 环境要求Python 3.8 或更高版本pip 包管理工具必要的 API 密钥OpenAI API Key或其他兼容的 LLM API系统依赖检查# 检查 Python 版本 python --version # 检查 pip 是否可用 pip --version4. 安装依赖包使用 pip 安装所需的 Python 包pip install -U langgraph langchain-anthropic langchain-text-splitters bs4 requests这些包分别提供以下功能langgraph: 图计算框架用于构建多步骤 Agentlangchain-anthropic: LangChain 的 Anthropic 模型集成可选langchain-text-splitters: 文本分割工具用于文档处理bs4: BeautifulSoup用于网页内容解析requests: HTTP 请求库5. 设置 API 密钥在代码中安全地设置 OpenAI API 密钥import getpass import os def _set_env(key: str): if key not in os.environ: os.environ[key] getpass.getpass(f{key}:) _set_env(OPENAI_API_KEY)这种方法避免将密钥硬编码在代码中提高安全性。实际部署时可以考虑使用环境变量或密钥管理服务。6. 文档预处理实战6.1 获取文档内容首先我们需要准备检索所需的文档材料。以下示例使用 Lilian Weng 的技术博客作为知识源import bs4 import requests from langchain_core.documents import Document def load_web_page(url: str, bs_kwargs: dict | None None) - list[Document]: 从网页 URL 加载内容并转换为 Document 对象 response requests.get(url, timeout20) response.raise_for_status() soup bs4.BeautifulSoup(response.text, html.parser, **(bs_kwargs or {})) return [Document(page_contentsoup.get_text(), metadata{source: url})] # 准备知识源 URLs urls [ https://lilianweng.github.io/posts/2024-11-28-reward-hacking/, https://lilianweng.github.io/posts/2024-07-07-hallucination/, https://lilianweng.github.io/posts/2024-04-12-diffusion-video/, ] # 加载所有文档 docs [load_web_page(url) for url in urls]6.2 文档分割与索引将文档分割成适合检索的小块并创建向量索引from langchain_text_splitters import RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter # 合并所有文档 docs_list [item for sublist in docs for item in sublist] # 使用递归文本分割器 text_splitter RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter.from_tiktoken_encoder( chunk_size100, # 每个 chunk 约 100 tokens chunk_overlap50, # 重叠 50 tokens 保持上下文 ) doc_splits text_splitter.split_documents(docs_list)7. 创建检索工具7.1 建立向量存储from langchain_core.vectorstores import InMemoryVectorStore from langchain_openai import OpenAIEmbeddings from functools import lru_cache lru_cache(maxsize1) def _get_retriever(): 创建带缓存的检索器避免重复初始化 vectorstore InMemoryVectorStore.from_documents( documentsdoc_splits, embeddingOpenAIEmbeddings(), ) return vectorstore.as_retriever()7.2 封装检索工具from langchain.tools import tool tool def retrieve_blog_posts(query: str) - str: 搜索并返回 Lilian Weng 博客文章的相关信息 retriever _get_retriever() retrieved_docs retriever.invoke(query) return \n\n.join([doc.page_content for doc in retrieved_docs]) retriever_tool retrieve_blog_posts7.3 测试检索功能# 测试检索工具 result retriever_tool.invoke({query: types of reward hacking}) print(检索结果样例:, result[:200] ... if len(result) 200 else result)8. 构建 LangGraph 智能体8.1 初始化 LLM 模型from langgraph.graph import MessagesState from langchain.chat_models import init_chat_model # 初始化聊天模型使用 OpenAI GPT-4o-mini response_model init_chat_model(openai:gpt-4o-mini, temperature0)8.2 创建查询生成节点def generate_query_or_respond(state: MessagesState): 根据当前状态生成响应决定是否使用检索工具 response response_model.bind_tools([retriever_tool]).invoke(state[messages]) return {messages: [response]} # 测试简单问候 test_input {messages: [{role: user, content: hello!}]} response generate_query_or_respond(test_input) print(简单问候测试:, response[messages][-1].content) # 测试需要检索的问题 test_input { messages: [ { role: user, content: What does Lilian Weng say about types of reward hacking?
