Whyhow automated KG SDK

WhyHow Knowledge Graph Creation SDK

The WhyHow Knowledge Graph Creation SDK enables you to quickly and easily build automated knowledge graphs tailored to your unique worldview. Instantly build, extend, and query well-scoped KGs with your data.

Installation

Prerequisites

• Python 3.10 or higher
• OpenAI API key
• Pinecone API key
• Neo4j credentials (username, password, and URL)

Install from PyPI

You can install the SDK directly from PyPI using pip:

pip install whyhow

export OPENAI_API_KEY=<your openai api key>
export PINECONE_API_KEY=<your pinecone api key>
export NEO4J_URL=<your neo4j url>
export NEO4J_USERNAME=<your neo4j username>
export NEO4J_PASSWORD=<your neo4j password>

Install from Github

Alternatively, you can clone the repo and install the package

git clone [e-mail]:whyhow-ai/whyhow.git
cd whyhow
pip install .

export OPENAI_API_KEY=<your openai api key>
export PINECONE_API_KEY=<your pinecone api key>
export NEO4J_URL=<your neo4j url>
export NEO4J_USERNAME=<your neo4j username>
export NEO4J_PASSWORD=<your neo4j password>

How to

Initialize SDK

Import the SDK and initialize the client using your WhyHow API key.

from whyhow import WhyHow

client = WhyHow(api_key=<your whyhow api key>)

Add documents to namespace

Your namespace is a logical grouping of the raw data you upload, the seed concepts you define, and the graphs you create. Namespaces are meant to be tightly scoped to your use case. You can create as many namespaces as you want.

namespace = "harry-potter"
documents = ["files/harry_potter_and_the_philosophers_stone.pdf","files/harry_potter_and_the_chamber_of_secrets.pdf"]

documents_response = client.graph.add_documents(namespace, documents)
print(documents_response)
# Adding your documents

Create a graph

You can create a graph in two different ways. First, you can create a graph using a user-defined schema, giving you complete control over the types of entities and relationships that are extracted and used to build the graph. Or, you can create a graph using a set of seed questions. In this case, WhyHow will automatically extract entities and relationships that are most applicable to the things you want to know, and construct a graph from these concepts.

Create graph with schema if...

1. Your graph must adhere to a consistent structure.
2. You are very familiar with the structure of your raw documents.
3. You need comprehensive extraction of concepts across the entire document.

Create graph with seed questions if...

1. You are unsure as to which relationships and patterns you'd like to build into your graph.
2. You want to build your graph with only the most semantically similar raw data.

Create a graph with schema

Tell the WhyHow SDK exactly which entities, relationships, and patterns you'd like to extract and build into your graph by defining them in a JSON-based schema.

#schema.json

{
  "entities": [
    {
      "name": "character",
      "description": "A person appearing in the book, e.g., Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, Hermione Granger, Albus Dumbledore."
    },
    {
      "name": "object",
      "description": "Inanimate items that characters use or interact with, e.g., wand, Philosopher's Stone, Invisibility Cloak, broomstick."
    }
    ...
  ],
  "relations": [
    {
      "name": "friends with",
      "description": "Denotes a friendly relationship between characters."
    },
    {
      "name": "interacts with",
      "description": "Describes a scenario in which a character engages with another character, creature, or object."
    },
    ...
  ],
  "patterns": [
    {
      "head": "character",
      "relation": "friends with",
      "tail": "character",
      "description": "One character is friends with another, e.g., Harry Potter is friends with Ron Weasley."
    },
    {
      "head": "character",
      "relation": "interacts with",
      "tail": "object",
      "description": "A character interacting with an object, e.g., Harry Potter interacts with the Invisibility Cloak."
    }
  ]
}

Using this schema, we extract relevant concepts from your raw data, construct triples, and generate a graph according to the patterns you define.

# Create graph from schema

schema = "files/schema.json"
create_graph_with_schema_response = client.graph.create_graph_from_schema(namespace, schema)
print(create_graph_with_schema_response)
# Creating your graph

Create a graph with seed questions

Tell the WhyHow SDK what you care about by providing a list of concepts in the form of natural language questions. Using these questions, we create a small ontology to guide extraction of entities and relationships that are most relevant to your use case, then construct a graph.

questions = ["What does Harry wear?","Who is Harry friends with?"]

create_graph_response = client.graph.create_graph(namespace, questions)
print(create_graph_response)
# Creating your graph

Query a graph

Query your graph using natural language. Using your natural language query, we automatically construct a Cypher query to run against the graph stored in your Neo4j instance.

query = "What does Harry wear?"

query_response = client.graph.query_graph(namespace, query)
print(query_response)
# {answer: "Harry wears a cloak, glasses, robe, and Dudley's old clothes.", cypher_query: "MATCH (:Entity {name: "Harry"})-[:WEARS]->(clothing:Entity)\nRETURN clothing;"}

WhyHow.AI is building tools to help developers bring more determinism and control to their RAG pipelines using graph structures. If you're thinking about, in the process of, or have already incorporated knowledge graphs in RAG, we’d love to chat at [e-mail], or follow our newsletter at WhyHow.AI.
