A DocumentStore using Elasticsearch to store and query the documents for our search.

Keeps all the logic to store and query documents from Elastic, incl. mapping of fields, adding filters or boosts to your queries, and storing embeddings
- You can either use an existing Elasticsearch index or create a new one via haystack
- Retrievers operate on top of this DocumentStore to find the relevant documents for a query

Arguments:

host: url(s) of elasticsearch nodes
port: port(s) of elasticsearch nodes
username: username (standard authentication via http_auth)
password: password (standard authentication via http_auth)
api_key_id: ID of the API key (alternative authentication mode to the above http_auth)
api_key: Secret value of the API key (alternative authentication mode to the above http_auth)
aws4auth: Authentication for usage with aws elasticsearch (can be generated with the requests-aws4auth package)
index: Name of index in elasticsearch to use for storing the documents that we want to search. If not existing yet, we will create one.
label_index: Name of index in elasticsearch to use for storing labels. If not existing yet, we will create one.
search_fields: Name of fields used by BM25Retriever to find matches in the docs to our incoming query (using elastic's multi_match query), e.g. ["title", "full_text"]
content_field: Name of field that might contain the answer and will therefore be passed to the Reader Model (e.g. "full_text"). If no Reader is used (e.g. in FAQ-Style QA) the plain content of this field will just be returned.
name_field: Name of field that contains the title of the the doc
embedding_field: Name of field containing an embedding vector (Only needed when using a dense retriever (e.g. DensePassageRetriever, EmbeddingRetriever) on top)
embedding_dim: Dimensionality of embedding vector (Only needed when using a dense retriever (e.g. DensePassageRetriever, EmbeddingRetriever) on top)
custom_mapping: If you want to use your own custom mapping for creating a new index in Elasticsearch, you can supply it here as a dictionary.
analyzer: Specify the default analyzer from one of the built-ins when creating a new Elasticsearch Index. Elasticsearch also has built-in analyzers for different languages (e.g. impacting tokenization). More info at: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/7.9/analysis-analyzers.html
excluded_meta_data: Name of fields in Elasticsearch that should not be returned (e.g. [field_one, field_two]). Helpful if you have fields with long, irrelevant content that you don't want to display in results (e.g. embedding vectors).
scheme: 'https' or 'http', protocol used to connect to your elasticsearch instance
ca_certs: Root certificates for SSL: it is a path to certificate authority (CA) certs on disk. You can use certifi package with certifi.where() to find where the CA certs file is located in your machine.
verify_certs: Whether to be strict about ca certificates
recreate_index: If set to True, an existing elasticsearch index will be deleted and a new one will be created using the config you are using for initialization. Be aware that all data in the old index will be lost if you choose to recreate the index. Be aware that both the document_index and the label_index will be recreated.
create_index: Whether to try creating a new index (If the index of that name is already existing, we will just continue in any case) ..deprecated:: 2.0 This param is deprecated. In the next major version we will always try to create an index if there is no existing index (the current behaviour when create_index=True). If you are looking to recreate an existing index by deleting it first if it already exist use param recreate_index.
refresh_type: Type of ES refresh used to control when changes made by a request (e.g. bulk) are made visible to search. If set to 'wait_for', continue only after changes are visible (slow, but safe). If set to 'false', continue directly (fast, but sometimes unintuitive behaviour when docs are not immediately available after ingestion). More info at https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/6.8/docs-refresh.html
similarity: The similarity function used to compare document vectors. 'dot_product' is the default since it is more performant with DPR embeddings. 'cosine' is recommended if you are using a Sentence BERT model.
timeout: Number of seconds after which an ElasticSearch request times out.
return_embedding: To return document embedding
duplicate_documents: Handle duplicates document based on parameter options. Parameter options : ( 'skip','overwrite','fail') skip: Ignore the duplicates documents overwrite: Update any existing documents with the same ID when adding documents. fail: an error is raised if the document ID of the document being added already exists.
scroll: Determines how long the current index is fixed, e.g. during updating all documents with embeddings. Defaults to "1d" and should not be larger than this. Can also be in minutes "5m" or hours "15h" For details, see https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/scroll-api.html
skip_missing_embeddings: Parameter to control queries based on vector similarity when indexed documents miss embeddings. Parameter options: (True, False) False: Raises exception if one or more documents do not have embeddings at query time True: Query will ignore all documents without embeddings (recommended if you concurrently index and query)
synonyms: List of synonyms can be passed while elasticsearch initialization. For example: [ "foo, bar => baz", "foozball , foosball" ] More info at https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/analysis-synonym-tokenfilter.html
synonym_type: Synonym filter type can be passed. Synonym or Synonym_graph to handle synonyms, including multi-word synonyms correctly during the analysis process. More info at https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/analysis-synonym-graph-tokenfilter.html
use_system_proxy: Whether to use system proxy.
batch_size: Number of Documents to index at once / Number of queries to execute at once. If you face memory issues, decrease the batch_size.

ElasticsearchDocumentStore.query_by_embedding

def query_by_embedding(query_emb: np.ndarray,
                       filters: Optional[FilterType] = None,
                       top_k: int = 10,
                       index: Optional[str] = None,
                       return_embedding: Optional[bool] = None,
                       headers: Optional[Dict[str, str]] = None,
                       scale_score: bool = True) -> List[Document]

Find the document that is most similar to the provided query_emb by using a vector similarity metric.

Arguments:

query_emb: Embedding of the query (e.g. gathered from DPR)

filters: Optional filters to narrow down the search space to documents whose metadata fulfill certain conditions. Filters are defined as nested dictionaries. The keys of the dictionaries can be a logical operator ("$and", "$or", "$not"), a comparison operator ("$eq", "$in", "$gt", "$gte", "$lt", "$lte") or a metadata field name. Logical operator keys take a dictionary of metadata field names and/or logical operators as value. Metadata field names take a dictionary of comparison operators as value. Comparison operator keys take a single value or (in case of "$in") a list of values as value. If no logical operator is provided, "$and" is used as default operation. If no comparison operator is provided, "$eq" (or "$in" if the comparison value is a list) is used as default operation.

__Example__:

```python
filters = {
    "$and": {
        "type": {"$eq": "article"},
        "date": {"$gte": "2015-01-01", "$lt": "2021-01-01"},
        "rating": {"$gte": 3},
        "$or": {
            "genre": {"$in": ["economy", "politics"]},
            "publisher": {"$eq": "nytimes"}
        }
    }
}
# or simpler using default operators
filters = {
    "type": "article",
    "date": {"$gte": "2015-01-01", "$lt": "2021-01-01"},
    "rating": {"$gte": 3},
    "$or": {
        "genre": ["economy", "politics"],
        "publisher": "nytimes"
    }
}
```

To use the same logical operator multiple times on the same level, logical operators take
optionally a list of dictionaries as value.

__Example__:

```python
filters = {
    "$or": [
        {
            "$and": {
                "Type": "News Paper",
                "Date": {
                    "$lt": "2019-01-01"
                }
            }
        },
        {
            "$and": {
                "Type": "Blog Post",
                "Date": {
                    "$gte": "2019-01-01"
                }

scale_score: Whether to scale the similarity score to the unit interval (range of [0,1]). If true (default) similarity scores (e.g. cosine or dot_product) which naturally have a different value range will be scaled to a range of [0,1], where 1 means extremely relevant. Otherwise raw similarity scores (e.g. cosine or dot_product) will be used.

optionally a list of dictionaries as value.

__Example__:

```python
filters = {
    "$or": [
        {
            "$and": {
                "Type": "News Paper",
                "Date": {
                    "$lt": "2019-01-01"
                }
            }
        },
        {
            "$and": {
                "Type": "Blog Post",
                "Date": {
                    "$gte": "2019-01-01"
                }
            }
        }
    ]
}
```

top_k: How many documents to return per query.

custom_query: query string containing a mandatory ${query} and an optional ${filters} placeholder. ::

**An example custom_query:**

{
    "size": 10,
    "query": {
        "bool": {
            "should": [{"multi_match": {
                "query": ${query},                 // mandatory query placeholder
                "type": "most_fields",
                "fields": ["content", "title"]}}],
            "filter": ${filters}                 // optional filters placeholder
        }
    },
}
 ```

**For this custom_query, a sample retrieve() could be:**
```python
self.retrieve(query="Why did the revenue increase?",
              filters={"years": ["2019"], "quarters": ["Q1", "Q2"]})

Optionally, highlighting can be defined by specifying the highlight settings. See https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/highlighting.html. You will find the highlighted output in the returned Document's meta field by key "highlighted". ::

**Example custom_query with highlighting:**

{
    "size": 10,
    "query": {
        "bool": {
            "should": [{"multi_match": {
                "query": ${query},                 // mandatory query placeholder
                "type": "most_fields",
                "fields": ["content", "title"]}}],
        }
    },
    "highlight": {             // enable highlighting
        "fields": {            // for fields content and title
            "content": {},
            "title": {}
        }
    },
}
 ```

 **For this custom_query, highlighting info can be accessed by:**
```python
docs = self.retrieve(query="Why did the revenue increase?")
highlighted_content = docs[0].meta["highlighted"]["content"]
highlighted_title = docs[0].meta["highlighted"]["title"]

index: The name of the index in the DocumentStore from which to retrieve documents
headers: Custom HTTP headers to pass to the client (e.g. {'Authorization': 'Basic YWRtaW46cm9vdA=='}) Check out https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/http-clients.html for more information.
all_terms_must_match: Whether all terms of the query must match the document. If true all query terms must be present in a document in order to be retrieved (i.e the AND operator is being used implicitly between query terms: "cozy fish restaurant" -> "cozy AND fish AND restaurant"). Otherwise at least one query term must be present in a document in order to be retrieved (i.e the OR operator is being used implicitly between query terms: "cozy fish restaurant" -> "cozy OR fish OR restaurant"). Defaults to false.
scale_score: Whether to scale the similarity score to the unit interval (range of [0,1]). If true (default) similarity scores (e.g. cosine or dot_product) which naturally have a different value range will be scaled to a range of [0,1], where 1 means extremely relevant. Otherwise raw similarity scores (e.g. cosine or dot_product) will be used.

ElasticsearchDocumentStore.query_batch

def query_batch(queries: List[str],
                filters: Optional[Union[FilterType,
                                        List[Optional[FilterType]]]] = None,
                top_k: int = 10,
                custom_query: Optional[str] = None,
                index: Optional[str] = None,
                headers: Optional[Dict[str, str]] = None,
                all_terms_must_match: bool = False,
                scale_score: bool = True,
                batch_size: Optional[int] = None) -> List[List[Document]]

Scan through documents in DocumentStore and return a small number of documents

that are most relevant to the provided queries as defined by keyword matching algorithms like BM25.

This method lets you find relevant documents for list of query strings (output: List of Lists of Documents).

Arguments:

queries: List of query strings.
filters: Optional filters to narrow down the search space to documents whose metadata fulfill certain conditions. Can be a single filter that will be applied to each query or a list of filters (one filter per query).

Filters are defined as nested dictionaries. The keys of the dictionaries can be a logical operator ("$and", "$or", "$not"), a comparison operator ("$eq", "$in", "$gt", "$gte", "$lt", "$lte") or a metadata field name. Logical operator keys take a dictionary of metadata field names and/or logical operators as value. Metadata field names take a dictionary of comparison operators as value. Comparison operator keys take a single value or (in case of "$in") a list of values as value. If no logical operator is provided, "$and" is used as default operation. If no comparison operator is provided, "$eq" (or "$in" if the comparison value is a list) is used as default operation.

__Example__:

```python
filters = {
    "$and": {
        "type": {"$eq": "article"},
        "date": {"$gte": "2015-01-01", "$lt": "2021-01-01"},
        "rating": {"$gte": 3},
        "$or": {
            "genre": {"$in": ["economy", "politics"]},
            "publisher": {"$eq": "nytimes"}
        }
    }
}
# or simpler using default operators
filters = {
    "type": "article",
    "date": {"$gte": "2015-01-01", "$lt": "2021-01-01"},
    "rating": {"$gte": 3},
    "$or": {
        "genre": ["economy", "politics"],
        "publisher": "nytimes"
    }
}
```

To use the same logical operator multiple times on the same level, logical operators take
optionally a list of dictionaries as value.

__Example__:

```python
filters = {
    "$or": [
        {
            "$and": {
                "Type": "News Paper",
                "Date": {
                    "$lt": "2019-01-01"
                }
            }
        },
        {
            "$and": {
                "Type": "Blog Post",
                "Date": {
                    "$gte": "2019-01-01"
                }
            }
        }
    ]
}
```

all_terms_must_match: Whether all terms of the query must match the document. If true all query terms must be present in a document in order to be retrieved (i.e the AND operator is being used implicitly between query terms: "cozy fish restaurant" -> "cozy AND fish AND restaurant"). Otherwise, at least one query term must be present in a document in order to be retrieved (i.e the OR operator is being used implicitly between query terms: "cozy fish restaurant" -> "cozy OR fish OR restaurant"). Defaults to False.
scale_score: Whether to scale the similarity score to the unit interval (range of [0,1]). If true (default) similarity scores (e.g. cosine or dot_product) which naturally have a different value range will be scaled to a range of [0,1], where 1 means extremely relevant. Otherwise, raw similarity scores (e.g. cosine or dot_product) will be used.

ElasticsearchDocumentStore.get_all_labels_aggregated

def get_all_labels_aggregated(
        index: Optional[str] = None,
        filters: Optional[FilterType] = None,
        open_domain: bool = True,
        drop_negative_labels: bool = False,
        drop_no_answers: bool = False,
        aggregate_by_meta: Optional[Union[str, list]] = None,
        headers: Optional[Dict[str, str]] = None) -> List[MultiLabel]

Return all labels in the DocumentStore, aggregated into MultiLabel objects.

This aggregation step helps, for example, if you collected multiple possible answers for one question and you want now all answers bundled together in one place for evaluation. How they are aggregated is defined by the open_domain and aggregate_by_meta parameters. If the questions are being asked to a single document (i.e. SQuAD style), you should set open_domain=False to aggregate by question and document. If the questions are being asked to your full collection of documents, you should set open_domain=True to aggregate just by question. If the questions are being asked to a subslice of your document set (e.g. product review use cases), you should set open_domain=True and populate aggregate_by_meta with the names of Label meta fields to aggregate by question and your custom meta fields. For example, in a product review use case, you might set aggregate_by_meta=["product_id"] so that Labels with the same question but different answers from different documents are aggregated into the one MultiLabel object, provided that they have the same product_id (to be found in Label.meta["product_id"])

Arguments:

index: Name of the index to get the labels from. If None, the DocumentStore's default index (self.index) will be used.
filters: Optional filters to narrow down the search space to documents whose metadata fulfill certain conditions. Filters are defined as nested dictionaries. The keys of the dictionaries can be a logical operator ("$and", "$or", "$not"), a comparison operator ("$eq", "$in", "$gt", "$gte", "$lt", "$lte") or a metadata field name. Logical operator keys take a dictionary of metadata field names and/or logical operators as value. Metadata field names take a dictionary of comparison operators as value. Comparison operator keys take a single value or (in case of "$in") a list of values as value. If no logical operator is provided, "$and" is used as default operation. If no comparison operator is provided, "$eq" (or "$in" if the comparison value is a list) is used as default operation.
```
__Example__:

```python
filters = {
    "$and": {
        "type": {"$eq": "article"},
        "date": {"$gte": "2015-01-01", "$lt": "2021-01-01"},
        "rating": {"$gte": 3},
        "$or": {
            "genre": {"$in": ["economy", "politics"]},
            "publisher": {"$eq": "nytimes"}
        }
    }
}
```
```
open_domain: When True, labels are aggregated purely based on the question text alone. When False, labels are aggregated in a closed domain fashion based on the question text and also the id of the document that the label is tied to. In this setting, this function might return multiple MultiLabel objects with the same question string.
headers: Custom HTTP headers to pass to document store client if supported (e.g. {'Authorization': 'Basic YWRtaW46cm9vdA=='} for basic authentication)
aggregate_by_meta: The names of the Label meta fields by which to aggregate. For example: ["product_id"]
drop_negative_labels: When True, labels with incorrect answers and documents are dropped.
drop_no_answers: When True, labels with no answers are dropped.

Adds a SQuAD-formatted file to the DocumentStore in order to be able to perform evaluation on it.

If a jsonl file and a batch_size is passed to the function, documents are loaded batchwise from disk and also indexed batchwise to the DocumentStore in order to prevent out of memory errors.

Arguments:

filename: Name of the file containing evaluation data (json or jsonl)
doc_index: Elasticsearch index where evaluation documents should be stored
label_index: Elasticsearch index where labeled questions should be stored
batch_size: Optional number of documents that are loaded and processed at a time. When set to None (default) all documents are processed at once.
preprocessor: Optional PreProcessor to preprocess evaluation documents. It can be used for splitting documents into passages (and assigning labels to corresponding passages). Currently the PreProcessor does not support split_by sentence, cleaning nor split_overlap != 0. When set to None (default) preprocessing is disabled.
max_docs: Optional number of documents that will be loaded. When set to None (default) all available eval documents are used.
open_domain: Set this to True if your file is an open domain dataset where two different answers to the same question might be found in different contexts.
headers: Custom HTTP headers to pass to document store client if supported (e.g. {'Authorization': 'Basic YWRtaW46cm9vdA=='} for basic authentication)

ElasticsearchDocumentStore.run

def run(documents: List[Union[dict, Document]],
        index: Optional[str] = None,
        headers: Optional[Dict[str, str]] = None,
        id_hash_keys: Optional[List[str]] = None)

Run requests of document stores

Comment: We will gradually introduce the primitives. The doument stores also accept dicts and parse them to documents. In the future, however, only documents themselves will be accepted. Parsing the dictionaries in the run function is therefore only an interim solution until the run function also accepts documents.

Arguments:

documents: A list of dicts that are documents.
headers: A list of headers.
index: Optional name of index where the documents shall be written to. If None, the DocumentStore's default index (self.index) will be used.
id_hash_keys: List of the fields that the hashes of the ids are generated from.

ElasticsearchDocumentStore.describe_documents

def describe_documents(index=None)

Return a summary of the documents in the document store

A DocumentStore using Elasticsearch to store and query the documents for our search.

Keeps all the logic to store and query documents from Elastic, incl. mapping of fields, adding filters or boosts to your queries, and storing embeddings
- You can either use an existing Elasticsearch index or create a new one via haystack
- Retrievers operate on top of this DocumentStore to find the relevant documents for a query

Arguments:

host: url(s) of elasticsearch nodes
port: port(s) of elasticsearch nodes
username: username (standard authentication via http_auth)
password: password (standard authentication via http_auth)
api_key_id: ID of the API key (alternative authentication mode to the above http_auth)
api_key: Secret value of the API key (alternative authentication mode to the above http_auth)
aws4auth: Authentication for usage with aws elasticsearch (can be generated with the requests-aws4auth package)
index: Name of index in elasticsearch to use for storing the documents that we want to search. If not existing yet, we will create one.
label_index: Name of index in elasticsearch to use for storing labels. If not existing yet, we will create one.
search_fields: Name of fields used by BM25Retriever to find matches in the docs to our incoming query (using elastic's multi_match query), e.g. ["title", "full_text"]
content_field: Name of field that might contain the answer and will therefore be passed to the Reader Model (e.g. "full_text"). If no Reader is used (e.g. in FAQ-Style QA) the plain content of this field will just be returned.
name_field: Name of field that contains the title of the the doc
embedding_field: Name of field containing an embedding vector (Only needed when using a dense retriever (e.g. DensePassageRetriever, EmbeddingRetriever) on top)
embedding_dim: Dimensionality of embedding vector (Only needed when using a dense retriever (e.g. DensePassageRetriever, EmbeddingRetriever) on top)
custom_mapping: If you want to use your own custom mapping for creating a new index in Elasticsearch, you can supply it here as a dictionary.
analyzer: Specify the default analyzer from one of the built-ins when creating a new Elasticsearch Index. Elasticsearch also has built-in analyzers for different languages (e.g. impacting tokenization). More info at: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/7.9/analysis-analyzers.html
excluded_meta_data: Name of fields in Elasticsearch that should not be returned (e.g. [field_one, field_two]). Helpful if you have fields with long, irrelevant content that you don't want to display in results (e.g. embedding vectors).
scheme: 'https' or 'http', protocol used to connect to your elasticsearch instance
ca_certs: Root certificates for SSL: it is a path to certificate authority (CA) certs on disk. You can use certifi package with certifi.where() to find where the CA certs file is located in your machine.
verify_certs: Whether to be strict about ca certificates
recreate_index: If set to True, an existing elasticsearch index will be deleted and a new one will be created using the config you are using for initialization. Be aware that all data in the old index will be lost if you choose to recreate the index. Be aware that both the document_index and the label_index will be recreated.
create_index: Whether to try creating a new index (If the index of that name is already existing, we will just continue in any case) ..deprecated:: 2.0 This param is deprecated. In the next major version we will always try to create an index if there is no existing index (the current behaviour when create_index=True). If you are looking to recreate an existing index by deleting it first if it already exist use param recreate_index.
refresh_type: Type of ES refresh used to control when changes made by a request (e.g. bulk) are made visible to search. If set to 'wait_for', continue only after changes are visible (slow, but safe). If set to 'false', continue directly (fast, but sometimes unintuitive behaviour when docs are not immediately available after ingestion). More info at https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/6.8/docs-refresh.html
similarity: The similarity function used to compare document vectors. 'dot_product' is the default since it is more performant with DPR embeddings. 'cosine' is recommended if you are using a Sentence BERT model.
timeout: Number of seconds after which an ElasticSearch request times out.
return_embedding: To return document embedding
duplicate_documents: Handle duplicates document based on parameter options. Parameter options : ( 'skip','overwrite','fail') skip: Ignore the duplicates documents overwrite: Update any existing documents with the same ID when adding documents. fail: an error is raised if the document ID of the document being added already exists.
scroll: Determines how long the current index is fixed, e.g. during updating all documents with embeddings. Defaults to "1d" and should not be larger than this. Can also be in minutes "5m" or hours "15h" For details, see https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/scroll-api.html
skip_missing_embeddings: Parameter to control queries based on vector similarity when indexed documents miss embeddings. Parameter options: (True, False) False: Raises exception if one or more documents do not have embeddings at query time True: Query will ignore all documents without embeddings (recommended if you concurrently index and query)
synonyms: List of synonyms can be passed while elasticsearch initialization. For example: [ "foo, bar => baz", "foozball , foosball" ] More info at https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/analysis-synonym-tokenfilter.html
synonym_type: Synonym filter type can be passed. Synonym or Synonym_graph to handle synonyms, including multi-word synonyms correctly during the analysis process. More info at https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/analysis-synonym-graph-tokenfilter.html
use_system_proxy: Whether to use system proxy.
batch_size: Number of Documents to index at once / Number of queries to execute at once. If you face memory issues, decrease the batch_size.

ElasticsearchDocumentStore.query_by_embedding

def query_by_embedding(query_emb: np.ndarray,
                       filters: Optional[FilterType] = None,
                       top_k: int = 10,
                       index: Optional[str] = None,

                       scale_score: bool = True) -> List[Document]

Find the document that is most similar to the provided query_emb by using a vector similarity metric.

Arguments:

query_emb: Embedding of the query (e.g. gathered from DPR)

__Example__:

```python
filters = {
    "$and": {
        "type": {"$eq": "article"},
        "date": {"$gte": "2015-01-01", "$lt": "2021-01-01"},
        "rating": {"$gte": 3},
        "$or": {
            "genre": {"$in": ["economy", "politics"]},
            "publisher": {"$eq": "nytimes"}
        }
    }
}
# or simpler using default operators
filters = {
    "type": "article",
    "date": {"$gte": "2015-01-01", "$lt": "2021-01-01"},
    "rating": {"$gte": 3},
    "$or": {
        "genre": ["economy", "politics"],
        "publisher": "nytimes"
    }
}
```

To use the same logical operator multiple times on the same level, logical operators take
optionally a list of dictionaries as value.

__Example__:

```python
filters = {
    "$or": [
        {
            "$and": {
                "Type": "News Paper",
                "Date": {
                    "$lt": "2019-01-01"
                }
            }
        },
        {
            "$and": {
                "Type": "Blog Post",
                "Date": {
                    "$gte": "2019-01-01"
                }

          all_terms_must_match: bool = False,
          scale_score: bool = True) -> List[Document]

Scan through documents in DocumentStore and return a small number documents

that are most relevant to the query as defined by the BM25 algorithm.

Arguments:

query: The query

__Example__:

```python
filters = {
    "$and": {
        "type": {"$eq": "article"},
        "date": {"$gte": "2015-01-01", "$lt": "2021-01-01"},
        "rating": {"$gte": 3},
        "$or": {
            "genre": {"$in": ["economy", "politics"]},
            "publisher": {"$eq": "nytimes"}
        }
    }
}
# or simpler using default operators
filters = {
    "type": "article",
    "date": {"$gte": "2015-01-01", "$lt": "2021-01-01"},
    "rating": {"$gte": 3},
    "$or": {
        "genre": ["economy", "politics"],
        "publisher": "nytimes"
    }
}
```

To use the same logical operator multiple times on the same level, logical operators take
optionally a list of dictionaries as value.

__Example__:

```python
filters = {
    "$or": [
        {
            "$and": {
                "Type": "News Paper",

                    "$lt": "2019-01-01"
                }
            }
        },
        {
            "$and": {
                "Type": "Blog Post",
                "Date": {
                    "$gte": "2019-01-01"
                }

```

top_k: How many documents to return per query.

custom_query: query string containing a mandatory ${query} and an optional ${filters} placeholder. ::

**An example custom_query:**

{
    "size": 10,
    "query": {
        "bool": {
            "should": [{"multi_match": {
                "query": ${query},                 // mandatory query placeholder
                "type": "most_fields",
                "fields": ["content", "title"]}}],
            "filter": ${filters}                 // optional filters placeholder
        }
    },
}
 ```

**For this custom_query, a sample retrieve() could be:**
```python
self.retrieve(query="Why did the revenue increase?",
              filters={"years": ["2019"], "quarters": ["Q1", "Q2"]})

**Example custom_query with highlighting:**

{
    "size": 10,
    "query": {
        "bool": {
            "should": [{"multi_match": {
                "query": ${query},                 // mandatory query placeholder
                "type": "most_fields",
                "fields": ["content", "title"]}}],
        }
    },
    "highlight": {             // enable highlighting
        "fields": {            // for fields content and title
            "content": {},
            "title": {}
        }
    },
}
 ```

 **For this custom_query, highlighting info can be accessed by:**
```python
docs = self.retrieve(query="Why did the revenue increase?")
highlighted_content = docs[0].meta["highlighted"]["content"]
highlighted_title = docs[0].meta["highlighted"]["title"]

index: The name of the index in the DocumentStore from which to retrieve documents

all_terms_must_match: Whether all terms of the query must match the document. If true all query terms must be present in a document in order to be retrieved (i.e the AND operator is being used implicitly between query terms: "cozy fish restaurant" -> "cozy AND fish AND restaurant"). Otherwise at least one query term must be present in a document in order to be retrieved (i.e the OR operator is being used implicitly between query terms: "cozy fish restaurant" -> "cozy OR fish OR restaurant"). Defaults to false.
scale_score: Whether to scale the similarity score to the unit interval (range of [0,1]). If true (default) similarity scores (e.g. cosine or dot_product) which naturally have a different value range will be scaled to a range of [0,1], where 1 means extremely relevant. Otherwise raw similarity scores (e.g. cosine or dot_product) will be used.

                      headers: Optional[Dict[str, str]] = None)

Updates the embeddings in the the document store using the encoding model specified in the retriever.

This can be useful if want to add or change the embeddings for your documents (e.g. after changing the retriever config).

Arguments:

retriever: Retriever to use to update the embeddings.
index: Index name to update
update_existing_embeddings: Whether to update existing embeddings of the documents. If set to False, only documents without embeddings are processed. This mode can be used for incremental updating of embeddings, wherein, only newly indexed documents get processed.
filters: Optional filters to narrow down the documents for which embeddings are to be updated. Filters are defined as nested dictionaries. The keys of the dictionaries can be a logical operator ("$and", "$or", "$not"), a comparison operator ("$eq", "$in", "$gt", "$gte", "$lt", "$lte") or a metadata field name. Logical operator keys take a dictionary of metadata field names and/or logical operators as value. Metadata field names take a dictionary of comparison operators as value. Comparison operator keys take a single value or (in case of "$in") a list of values as value. If no logical operator is provided, "$and" is used as default operation. If no comparison operator is provided, "$eq" (or "$in" if the comparison value is a list) is used as default operation.

                  headers: Optional[Dict[str, str]] = None)

Adds a SQuAD-formatted file to the DocumentStore in order to be able to perform evaluation on it.

If a jsonl file and a batch_size is passed to the function, documents are loaded batchwise from disk and also indexed batchwise to the DocumentStore in order to prevent out of memory errors.

Arguments:

filename: Name of the file containing evaluation data (json or jsonl)
doc_index: Elasticsearch index where evaluation documents should be stored
label_index: Elasticsearch index where labeled questions should be stored
batch_size: Optional number of documents that are loaded and processed at a time. When set to None (default) all documents are processed at once.
preprocessor: Optional PreProcessor to preprocess evaluation documents. It can be used for splitting documents into passages (and assigning labels to corresponding passages). Currently the PreProcessor does not support split_by sentence, cleaning nor split_overlap != 0. When set to None (default) preprocessing is disabled.
max_docs: Optional number of documents that will be loaded. When set to None (default) all available eval documents are used.
open_domain: Set this to True if your file is an open domain dataset where two different answers to the same question might be found in different contexts.
headers: Custom HTTP headers to pass to document store client if supported (e.g. {'Authorization': 'Basic YWRtaW46cm9vdA=='} for basic authentication)

ElasticsearchDocumentStore.run

def run(documents: List[Union[dict, Document]],
        index: Optional[str] = None,
        headers: Optional[Dict[str, str]] = None,
        id_hash_keys: Optional[List[str]] = None)

Run requests of document stores

Arguments:

documents: A list of dicts that are documents.
headers: A list of headers.
index: Optional name of index where the documents shall be written to. If None, the DocumentStore's default index (self.index) will be used.
id_hash_keys: List of the fields that the hashes of the ids are generated from.

Document Store using OpenSearch (https://opensearch.org/). It is compatible with the Amazon OpenSearch Service.

In addition to native OpenSearch query & filtering, it provides efficient vector similarity search using the KNN plugin that can scale to a large number of documents.

Arguments:

host: url(s) of OpenSearch nodes
port: port(s) of OpenSearch nodes
username: username (standard authentication via http_auth)
password: password (standard authentication via http_auth)
api_key_id: ID of the API key (alternative authentication mode to the above http_auth)
api_key: Secret value of the API key (alternative authentication mode to the above http_auth)
aws4auth: Authentication for usage with AWS OpenSearch Service (can be generated with the requests-aws4auth package)
index: Name of index in OpenSearch to use for storing the documents that we want to search. If not existing yet, we will create one.
label_index: Name of index in OpenSearch to use for storing labels. If not existing yet, we will create one.
search_fields: Name of fields used by BM25Retriever to find matches in the docs to our incoming query (using OpenSearch's multi_match query), e.g. ["title", "full_text"]
content_field: Name of field that might contain the answer and will therefore be passed to the Reader Model (e.g. "full_text"). If no Reader is used (e.g. in FAQ-Style QA) the plain content of this field will just be returned.
name_field: Name of field that contains the title of the the doc
embedding_field: Name of field containing an embedding vector (Only needed when using a dense retriever (e.g. DensePassageRetriever, EmbeddingRetriever) on top) Note, that in OpenSearch the similarity type for efficient approximate vector similarity calculations is tied to the embedding field's data type which cannot be changed after creation.
embedding_dim: Dimensionality of embedding vector (Only needed when using a dense retriever (e.g. DensePassageRetriever, EmbeddingRetriever) on top)
custom_mapping: If you want to use your own custom mapping for creating a new index in OpenSearch, you can supply it here as a dictionary.
analyzer: Specify the default analyzer from one of the built-ins when creating a new OpenSearch Index. OpenSearch also has built-in analyzers for different languages (e.g. impacting tokenization). More info at: https://opensearch.org/docs/latest/analyzers/text-analyzers/
excluded_meta_data: Name of fields in OpenSearch that should not be returned (e.g. [field_one, field_two]). Helpful if you have fields with long, irrelevant content that you don't want to display in results (e.g. embedding vectors).
scheme: 'https' or 'http', protocol used to connect to your OpenSearch instance
ca_certs: Root certificates for SSL: it is a path to certificate authority (CA) certs on disk. You can use certifi package with certifi.where() to find where the CA certs file is located in your machine.
verify_certs: Whether to be strict about ca certificates
create_index: Whether to try creating a new index (If the index of that name is already existing, we will just continue in any case
refresh_type: Type of OpenSearch refresh used to control when changes made by a request (e.g. bulk) are made visible to search. If set to 'wait_for', continue only after changes are visible (slow, but safe). If set to 'false', continue directly (fast, but sometimes unintuitive behaviour when docs are not immediately available after ingestion). More info at https://opensearch.org/docs/latest/api-reference/document-apis/bulk/`url`-parameters
similarity: The similarity function used to compare document vectors. 'dot_product' is the default since it is more performant with DPR embeddings. 'cosine' is recommended if you are using a Sentence BERT model. Note, that the use of efficient approximate vector calculations in OpenSearch is tied to embedding_field's data type which cannot be changed after creation. You won't be able to use approximate vector calculations on an embedding_field which was created with a different similarity value. In such cases a fallback to exact but slow vector calculations will happen and a warning will be displayed.
timeout: Number of seconds after which an OpenSearch request times out.
return_embedding: To return document embedding
duplicate_documents: Handle duplicates document based on parameter options. Parameter options : ( 'skip','overwrite','fail') skip: Ignore the duplicates documents overwrite: Update any existing documents with the same ID when adding documents. fail: an error is raised if the document ID of the document being added already exists.
index_type: The type of index you want to create. Choose from 'flat', 'hnsw', 'ivf', or 'ivf_pq'. 'ivf_pq' is an IVF index optimized for memory through product quantization. ('ivf' and 'ivf_pq' are only available with 'faiss' as knn_engine.) If index_type='flat', we use OpenSearch's default index settings (which is an hnsw index optimized for accuracy and memory footprint), since OpenSearch does not require a special index for exact vector similarity calculations. Note that OpenSearchDocumentStore will only perform exact vector calculations if the selected knn_engine supports it (currently only knn_engine='score_script'). For the other knn_engines we use hnsw, as this usually achieves the best balance between nearly as good accuracy and latency.
scroll: Determines how long the current index is fixed, e.g. during updating all documents with embeddings. Defaults to "1d" and should not be larger than this. Can also be in minutes "5m" or hours "15h" For details, see https://opensearch.org/docs/latest/api-reference/scroll/
skip_missing_embeddings: Parameter to control queries based on vector similarity when indexed documents miss embeddings. Parameter options: (True, False) False: Raises exception if one or more documents do not have embeddings at query time True: Query will ignore all documents without embeddings (recommended if you concurrently index and query)
synonyms: List of synonyms can be passed while OpenSearch initialization. For example: [ "foo, bar => baz", "foozball , foosball" ] More info at https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/analysis-synonym-tokenfilter.html
synonym_type: Synonym filter type can be passed. Synonym or Synonym_graph to handle synonyms, including multi-word synonyms correctly during the analysis process. More info at https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/analysis-synonym-graph-tokenfilter.html
knn_engine: The engine you want to use for the nearest neighbor search by OpenSearch's KNN plug-in. Possible values: "nmslib", "faiss" or "score_script". Defaults to "nmslib". For more information, see k-NN Index.
knn_parameters: Custom parameters for the KNN engine. Parameter names depend on the index type you use. Configurable parameters for indices of type...
- hnsw: "ef_construction", "ef_search", "m"
- ivf: "nlist", "nprobes"
- ivf_pq: "nlist", "nprobes", "m", "code_size" If you don't specify any parameters, the OpenSearch's default values are used. (With the exception of index_type='hnsw', where we use values other than OpenSearch's default ones to achieve comparability throughout DocumentStores in Haystack.) For more information on configuration of knn indices, see OpenSearch Documentation.
ivf_train_size: Number of embeddings to use for training the IVF index. Training starts automatically once the number of indexed embeddings exceeds ivf_train_size. If None, the minimum number of embeddings recommended for training by FAISS is used (depends on the desired index type and knn parameters). If 0, training doesn't happen automatically but needs to be triggered manually via the train_index method. Default: None
batch_size: Number of Documents to index at once / Number of queries to execute at once. If you face memory issues, decrease the batch_size.

OpenSearchDocumentStore.write_documents

def write_documents(documents: Union[List[dict], List[Document]],
                    index: Optional[str] = None,
                    batch_size: Optional[int] = None,
                    duplicate_documents: Optional[str] = None,
                    headers: Optional[Dict[str, str]] = None)

Indexes documents for later queries in OpenSearch.

If a document with the same ID already exists in OpenSearch: a) (Default) Throw OpenSearch's standard error message for duplicate IDs. b) If self.update_existing_documents=True for DocumentStore: Overwrite existing documents. (This is only relevant if you pass your own ID when initializing a Document. If you don't set custom IDs for your Documents or just pass a list of dictionaries here, they automatically get UUIDs assigned. See the Document class for details.)

Arguments:

documents: A list of Python dictionaries or a list of Haystack Document objects. For documents as dictionaries, the format is {"content": ""}. Optionally: Include meta data via {"content": "", "meta":{"name": ", "author": "somebody", ...}} You can use it for filtering and you can access it in the responses of the Finder. Advanced: If you are using your own OpenSearch mapping, change the key names in the dictionary to what you have set for self.content_field and self.name_field.
index: OpenSearch index where the documents should be indexed. If you don't specify it, self.index is used.
batch_size: Number of documents that are passed to OpenSearch's bulk function at a time.
duplicate_documents: Handle duplicate documents based on parameter options. Parameter options: ( 'skip','overwrite','fail') skip: Ignore the duplicate documents overwrite: Update any existing documents with the same ID when adding documents. fail: Raises an error if the document ID of the document being added already exists.
headers: Custom HTTP headers to pass to OpenSearch client (for example {'Authorization': 'Basic YWRtaW46cm9vdA=='}) For more information, see HTTP/REST clients and security.

Raises:

DuplicateDocumentError: Exception trigger on duplicate document

Returns:

None

}
```

top_k: How many documents to return per query.

custom_query: The query string containing a mandatory ${query} and an optional ${filters} placeholder. ::

**An example custom_query:**

{
    "size": 10,
    "query": {
        "bool": {
            "should": [{"multi_match": {
                "query": ${query},                 // mandatory query placeholder
                "type": "most_fields",
                "fields": ["content", "title"]}}],
            "filter": ${filters}                   // optional filters placeholder
        }
    },
}
 ```

**For this custom_query, a sample `retrieve()` could be:**
```python
self.retrieve(query="Why did the revenue increase?",
              filters={"years": ["2019"], "quarters": ["Q1", "Q2"]})

**Example custom_query with highlighting:**

{
    "size": 10,
    "query": {
        "bool": {
            "should": [{"multi_match": {
                "query": ${query},                 // mandatory query placeholder
                "type": "most_fields",
                "fields": ["content", "title"]}}],
        }
    },
    "highlight": {             // enable highlighting
        "fields": {            // for fields content and title
            "content": {},
            "title": {}
        }
    },
}
 ```

 **For this custom_query, highlighting info can be accessed by:**
```python
docs = self.retrieve(query="Why did the revenue increase?")
highlighted_content = docs[0].meta["highlighted"]["content"]
highlighted_title = docs[0].meta["highlighted"]["title"]

index: The name of the index in the DocumentStore from which to retrieve documents
headers: Custom HTTP headers to pass to the client (e.g. {'Authorization': 'Basic YWRtaW46cm9vdA=='}) Check out https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/http-clients.html for more information.
all_terms_must_match: Whether all terms of the query must match the document. If true all query terms must be present in a document in order to be retrieved (i.e the AND operator is being used implicitly between query terms: "cozy fish restaurant" -> "cozy AND fish AND restaurant"). Otherwise at least one query term must be present in a document in order to be retrieved (i.e the OR operator is being used implicitly between query terms: "cozy fish restaurant" -> "cozy OR fish OR restaurant"). Defaults to false.
scale_score: Whether to scale the similarity score to the unit interval (range of [0,1]). If true (default) similarity scores (e.g. cosine or dot_product) which naturally have a different value range will be scaled to a range of [0,1], where 1 means extremely relevant. Otherwise raw similarity scores (e.g. cosine or dot_product) will be used.

OpenSearchDocumentStore.delete_index

def delete_index(index: str)

Delete an existing search index. The index together with all data will be removed.

If the index is of type "ivf" or "ivf_pq", this method also deletes the corresponding IVF and PQ model.

Arguments:

index: The name of the index to delete.

Returns:

None

                               batch_size: int = 10) -> List[dict]

Get values associated with a metadata key. The output is in the format:

[{"value": "my-value-1", "count": 23}, {"value": "my-value-2", "count": 12}, ... ]

Arguments:

key: The meta key name to get the values for.
query: Narrow down the scope to documents matching the query string.
filters: Narrow down the scope to documents matching the given filters. Filters are defined as nested dictionaries. The keys of the dictionaries can be a logical operator ("$and", "$or", "$not"), a comparison operator ("$eq", "$in", "$gt", "$gte", "$lt", "$lte") or a metadata field name. Logical operator keys take a dictionary of metadata field names and/or logical operators as value. Metadata field names take a dictionary of comparison operators as value. Comparison operator keys take a single value or (in case of "$in") a list of values as value. If no logical operator is provided, "$and" is used as default operation. If no comparison operator is provided, "$eq" (or "$in" if the comparison value is a list) is used as default operation.
```

Scan through documents in DocumentStore and return a small number of documents

that are most relevant to the provided queries as defined by keyword matching algorithms like BM25.

This method lets you find relevant documents for list of query strings (output: List of Lists of Documents).

Arguments:

    "$or": {
        "genre": ["economy", "politics"],
        "publisher": "nytimes"
    }
}
```

To use the same logical operator multiple times on the same level, logical operators take
optionally a list of dictionaries as value.

__Example__:

```python
filters = {
    "$or": [
        {
            "$and": {
                "Type": "News Paper",

If true all query terms must be present in a document in order to be retrieved (i.e the AND operator is being used implicitly between query terms: "cozy fish restaurant" -> "cozy AND fish AND restaurant"). Otherwise, at least one query term must be present in a document in order to be retrieved (i.e the OR operator is being used implicitly between query terms: "cozy fish restaurant" -> "cozy OR fish OR restaurant"). Defaults to False.
scale_score: Whether to scale the similarity score to the unit interval (range of [0,1]). If true (default) similarity scores (e.g. cosine or dot_product) which naturally have a different value range will be scaled to a range of [0,1], where 1 means extremely relevant. Otherwise, raw similarity scores (e.g. cosine or dot_product) will be used.

index: Name of the index to get the labels from. If None, the DocumentStore's default index (self.index) will be used.
filters: Optional filters to narrow down the search space to documents whose metadata fulfill certain conditions. Filters are defined as nested dictionaries. The keys of the dictionaries can be a logical operator ("$and", "$or", "$not"), a comparison operator ("$eq", "$in", "$gt", "$gte", "$lt", "$lte") or a metadata field name. Logical operator keys take a dictionary of metadata field names and/or logical operators as value. Metadata field names take a dictionary of comparison operators as value. Comparison operator keys take a single value or (in case of "$in") a list of values as value. If no logical operator is provided, "$and" is used as default operation. If no comparison operator is provided, "$eq" (or "$in" if the comparison value is a list) is used as default operation.
```
__Example__:

```python
filters = {
    "$and": {
        "type": {"$eq": "article"},
        "date": {"$gte": "2015-01-01", "$lt": "2021-01-01"},
        "rating": {"$gte": 3},
        "$or": {
            "genre": {"$in": ["economy", "politics"]},
            "publisher": {"$eq": "nytimes"}
        }
    }
}
```
```
open_domain: When True, labels are aggregated purely based on the question text alone. When False, labels are aggregated in a closed domain fashion based on the question text and also the id of the document that the label is tied to. In this setting, this function might return multiple MultiLabel objects with the same question string.
headers: Custom HTTP headers to pass to document store client if supported (e.g. {'Authorization': 'Basic YWRtaW46cm9vdA=='} for basic authentication)
aggregate_by_meta: The names of the Label meta fields by which to aggregate. For example: ["product_id"]
drop_negative_labels: When True, labels with incorrect answers and documents are dropped.
drop_no_answers: When True, labels with no answers are dropped.

             bm25_parameters: Optional[Dict] = None)

Arguments:

index: The documents are scoped to an index attribute that can be used when writing, querying, or deleting documents. This parameter sets the default value for document index.
label_index: The default value of index attribute for the labels.

embedding_dim: The size of the embedding vector.
return_embedding: To return document embedding
similarity: The similarity function used to compare document vectors. 'dot_product' is the default sine it is more performant with DPR embeddings. 'cosine' is recommended if you are using a Sentence BERT model.
progress_bar: Whether to show a tqdm progress bar or not. Can be helpful to disable in production deployments to keep the logs clean.
duplicate_documents: Handle duplicates document based on parameter options. Parameter options : ( 'skip','overwrite','fail') skip: Ignore the duplicates documents overwrite: Update any existing documents with the same ID when adding documents. fail: an error is raised if the document ID of the document being added already exists.

Since the data is originally stored in CPU memory there is little risk of overruning memory when running on CPU.
devices: List of torch devices (e.g. cuda, cpu, mps) to limit inference to specific devices. A list containing torch device objects and/or strings is supported (For example [torch.device('cuda:0'), "mps", "cuda:1"]). When specifying use_gpu=False the devices parameter is not used and a single cpu device is used for inference.

Scan through documents in DocumentStore and return a small number of documents

that are most relevant to the provided queries as defined by keyword matching algorithms like BM25. This method lets you find relevant documents for list of query strings (output: List of Lists of Documents).

Arguments:

query: The query.
top_k: How many documents to return per query.
index: The name of the index in the DocumentStore from which to retrieve documents.
scale_score: Whether to scale the similarity score to the unit interval (range of [0,1]).

InMemoryDocumentStore.get_all_labels_aggregated

        aggregate_by_meta: Optional[Union[str, list]] = None,
        headers: Optional[Dict[str, str]] = None) -> List[MultiLabel]

Return all labels in the DocumentStore, aggregated into MultiLabel objects.

Arguments:

index: Name of the index to get the labels from. If None, the DocumentStore's default index (self.index) will be used.
filters: Optional filters to narrow down the search space to documents whose metadata fulfill certain conditions. Filters are defined as nested dictionaries. The keys of the dictionaries can be a logical operator ("$and", "$or", "$not"), a comparison operator ("$eq", "$in", "$gt", "$gte", "$lt", "$lte") or a metadata field name. Logical operator keys take a dictionary of metadata field names and/or logical operators as value. Metadata field names take a dictionary of comparison operators as value. Comparison operator keys take a single value or (in case of "$in") a list of values as value. If no logical operator is provided, "$and" is used as default operation. If no comparison operator is provided, "$eq" (or "$in" if the comparison value is a list) is used as default operation.
```
__Example__:

```python
filters = {
    "$and": {
        "type": {"$eq": "article"},
        "date": {"$gte": "2015-01-01", "$lt": "2021-01-01"},
        "rating": {"$gte": 3},

            "publisher": {"$eq": "nytimes"}
        }
    }
}
```
```
open_domain: When True, labels are aggregated purely based on the question text alone. When False, labels are aggregated in a closed domain fashion based on the question text and also the id of the document that the label is tied to. In this setting, this function might return multiple MultiLabel objects with the same question string.
headers: Custom HTTP headers to pass to document store client if supported (e.g. {'Authorization': 'Basic YWRtaW46cm9vdA=='} for basic authentication)
aggregate_by_meta: The names of the Label meta fields by which to aggregate. For example: ["product_id"]
drop_negative_labels: When True, labels with incorrect answers and documents are dropped.
drop_no_answers: When True, labels with no answers are dropped.

        }
    }
}
```
```
open_domain: When True, labels are aggregated purely based on the question text alone. When False, labels are aggregated in a closed domain fashion based on the question text and also the id of the document that the label is tied to. In this setting, this function might return multiple MultiLabel objects with the same question string.
headers: Custom HTTP headers to pass to document store client if supported (e.g. {'Authorization': 'Basic YWRtaW46cm9vdA=='} for basic authentication)

Arguments:

filename: Name of the file containing evaluation data (json or jsonl)
doc_index: Elasticsearch index where evaluation documents should be stored
label_index: Elasticsearch index where labeled questions should be stored
batch_size: Optional number of documents that are loaded and processed at a time. When set to None (default) all documents are processed at once.

Module faiss

FAISSDocumentStore

class FAISSDocumentStore(SQLDocumentStore)

A DocumentStore for very large-scale, embedding-based dense Retrievers, like the DPR.

It implements the FAISS library to perform similarity search on vectors.

The document text and meta-data (for filtering) are stored using the SQLDocumentStore, while the vector embeddings are indexed in a FAISS index.

When you initialize the FAISSDocumentStore, the faiss_document_store.db database file is created on your disk. For more information, see DocumentStore.

FAISSDocumentStore.init

def __init__(sql_url: str = "sqlite:///faiss_document_store.db",
             vector_dim: Optional[int] = None,
             embedding_dim: int = 768,
             faiss_index_factory_str: str = "Flat",
             faiss_index: Optional["faiss.swigfaiss.Index"] = None,
             return_embedding: bool = False,
             index: str = "document",
             similarity: str = "dot_product",
             embedding_field: str = "embedding",
             progress_bar: bool = True,
             duplicate_documents: str = "overwrite",
             faiss_index_path: Optional[Union[str, Path]] = None,
             faiss_config_path: Optional[Union[str, Path]] = None,
             isolation_level: Optional[str] = None,
             n_links: int = 64,
             ef_search: int = 20,
             ef_construction: int = 80,
             validate_index_sync: bool = True,
             batch_size: int = 10_000)

Arguments:

sql_url: SQL connection URL for the database. The default value is "sqlite:///faiss_document_store.db"`. It defaults to a local, file-based SQLite DB. For large scale deployment, we recommend Postgres.
vector_dim: Deprecated. Use embedding_dim instead.
embedding_dim: The embedding vector size. Default: 768.
faiss_index_factory_str: Creates a new FAISS index of the specified type. It determines the type based on the string you pass to it, following the conventions of the original FAISS index factory. Recommended options:
"Flat" (default): Best accuracy (= exact). Becomes slow and RAM-intense for > 1 Mio docs.
"HNSW": Graph-based heuristic. If you don't specify it further, we use the following configuration: HNSW64, efConstruction=80 and efSearch=20.
"IVFx,Flat": Inverted index. Replace x with the number of centroids aka nlist. Rule of thumb: nlist = 10 * sqrt (num_docs) is a good starting point. For more details see:
Overview of indices
Guideline for choosing an index
FAISS Index factory Benchmarks: XXX
faiss_index: Loads an existing FAISS index. This can be an empty index you configured manually or an index with Documents you used in Haystack before and want to load again. You can use it to load a previously saved DocumentStore.
return_embedding: Returns document embedding. Unlike other document stores, FAISS will return normalized embeddings.
index: Specifies the name of the index in DocumentStore to use.
similarity: Specifies the similarity function used to compare document vectors. 'dot_product' is the default because it's more performant with DPR embeddings. 'cosine' is recommended if you're using a Sentence-Transformer model. In both cases, the returned values in Document.score are normalized to be in range [0,1]: For dot_product: expit(np.asarray(raw_score / 100)) For cosine: (raw_score + 1) / 2
embedding_field: The name of the field containing an embedding vector.
progress_bar: Shows a tqdm progress bar. You may want to disable it in production deployments to keep the logs clean.
duplicate_documents: Handles duplicates document based on parameter options. Parameter options: ( 'skip','overwrite','fail') skip: Ignores the duplicate documents. overwrite: Updates any existing documents with the same ID when adding documents. fail: Raises an error if the document ID of the document being added already exists.
faiss_index_path: The stored FAISS index file. Call save() to create this file. Use the same index file path you specified when calling save(). If you specify faiss_index_path, you can only pass faiss_config_path.
faiss_config_path: Stored FAISS initial configuration. It contains all the parameters used to initialize the DocumentStore. Call save() to create it and then use the same configuration file path you specified when calling save(). Don't set it if you haven't specified config_path when calling save().
isolation_level: See SQLAlchemy's isolation_level parameter for create_engine().
n_links: Used only if index_factory == "HNSW".
ef_search: Used only if index_factory == "HNSW".
ef_construction: Used only if index_factory == "HNSW".
validate_index_sync: Checks if the document count equals the embedding count at initialization time.
batch_size: Number of Documents to index at once / Number of queries to execute at once. If you face memory issues, decrease the batch_size.

return_embedding: To return document embedding. Unlike other document stores, FAISS will return normalized embeddings
scale_score: Whether to scale the similarity score to the unit interval (range of [0,1]). If true (default) similarity scores (e.g. cosine or dot_product) which naturally have a different value range will be scaled to a range of [0,1], where 1 means extremely relevant. Otherwise raw similarity scores (e.g. cosine or dot_product) will be used.

FAISSDocumentStore.save

def save(index_path: Union[str, Path],
         config_path: Optional[Union[str, Path]] = None)

Save FAISS Index to the specified file.

The FAISS DocumentStore contains a SQL database and a FAISS index. The database is saved to your disk when you initialize the DocumentStore. The FAISS index is not. You must explicitly save it by calling the save() method. You can then use the saved index to load a different DocumentStore.

Saving a FAISSDocumentStore creates two files on your disk: the index file and the configuration file. The configuration file contains all the parameters needed to initialize the DocumentStore. For more information, see DocumentStore.

Arguments:

index_path: The path where you want to save the index.
config_path: The path where you want to save the configuration file. This is the JSON file that contains all the parameters to initialize the DocumentStore. It defaults to the same as the index file path, except the extension (.json). This file contains all the parameters passed to FAISSDocumentStore() at creation time (for example the sql_url, embedding_dim, and so on), and will be used by the load() method to restore the index with the saved configuration.

Returns:

None

FAISSDocumentStore.load

@classmethod
def load(cls,
         index_path: Union[str, Path],
         config_path: Optional[Union[str, Path]] = None)

Load a saved FAISS index from a file and connect to the SQL database. load() is a class method, so, you need to call it on the class itself instead of the instance. For more information, see DocumentStore.

Note: To have a correct mapping from FAISS to SQL, make sure to use the same SQL DB that you used when calling save().

Arguments:

index_path: The stored FAISS index file. Call save() to create this file. Use the same index file path you specified when calling save().
config_path: Stored FAISS initial configuration parameters. Call save() to create it.

        headers: Optional[Dict[str, str]] = None) -> List[MultiLabel]

Return all labels in the DocumentStore, aggregated into MultiLabel objects.

Arguments:

index: Name of the index to get the labels from. If None, the DocumentStore's default index (self.index) will be used.
filters: Optional filters to narrow down the search space to documents whose metadata fulfill certain conditions. Filters are defined as nested dictionaries. The keys of the dictionaries can be a logical operator ("$and", "$or", "$not"), a comparison operator ("$eq", "$in", "$gt", "$gte", "$lt", "$lte") or a metadata field name. Logical operator keys take a dictionary of metadata field names and/or logical operators as value. Metadata field names take a dictionary of comparison operators as value. Comparison operator keys take a single value or (in case of "$in") a list of values as value. If no logical operator is provided, "$and" is used as default operation. If no comparison operator is provided, "$eq" (or "$in" if the comparison value is a list) is used as default operation.
```
__Example__:

```python
filters = {
    "$and": {
        "type": {"$eq": "article"},
        "date": {"$gte": "2015-01-01", "$lt": "2021-01-01"},

        }
    }
}
```
```
open_domain: When True, labels are aggregated purely based on the question text alone. When False, labels are aggregated in a closed domain fashion based on the question text and also the id of the document that the label is tied to. In this setting, this function might return multiple MultiLabel objects with the same question string.
headers: Custom HTTP headers to pass to document store client if supported (e.g. {'Authorization': 'Basic YWRtaW46cm9vdA=='} for basic authentication)
aggregate_by_meta: The names of the Label meta fields by which to aggregate. For example: ["product_id"]
drop_negative_labels: When True, labels with incorrect answers and documents are dropped.
drop_no_answers: When True, labels with no answers are dropped.

Adds a SQuAD-formatted file to the DocumentStore in order to be able to perform evaluation on it.

If a jsonl file and a batch_size is passed to the function, documents are loaded batchwise from disk and also indexed batchwise to the DocumentStore in order to prevent out of memory errors.

Arguments:

filename: Name of the file containing evaluation data (json or jsonl)
doc_index: Elasticsearch index where evaluation documents should be stored
label_index: Elasticsearch index where labeled questions should be stored
batch_size: Optional number of documents that are loaded and processed at a time. When set to None (default) all documents are processed at once.
preprocessor: Optional PreProcessor to preprocess evaluation documents. It can be used for splitting documents into passages (and assigning labels to corresponding passages). Currently the PreProcessor does not support split_by sentence, cleaning nor split_overlap != 0. When set to None (default) preprocessing is disabled.

Return a summary of the documents in the document store

Module weaviate

WeaviateDocumentStore

class WeaviateDocumentStore(KeywordDocumentStore)

Weaviate is a cloud-native, modular, real-time vector search engine built to scale your machine learning models. (See https://weaviate.io/developers/weaviate/current/index.html#what-is-weaviate)

Some of the key differences in contrast to FAISS:

Stores everything in one place: documents, meta data and vectors - so less network overhead when scaling this up
Allows combination of vector search and scalar filtering, i.e. you can filter for a certain tag and do dense retrieval on that subset
Has less variety of ANN algorithms, as of now only HNSW.
Requires document ids to be in uuid-format. If wrongly formatted ids are provided at indexing time they will be replaced with uuids automatically.

Weaviate python client is used to connect to the server, more details are here https://weaviate.io/developers/weaviate/client-libraries/python

Usage:

Start a Weaviate server (see https://weaviate.io/developers/weaviate/current/getting-started/installation.html)
Init a WeaviateDocumentStore in Haystack

Connection Parameters Precedence: The selection and priority of connection parameters are as follows:

If use_embedded is set to True, an embedded Weaviate instance will be used, and all other connection parameters will be ignored.
If use_embedded is False or not provided and an api_key is provided, the api_key will be used to authenticate through AuthApiKey, assuming a connection to a Weaviate Cloud Service (WCS) instance.
If neither use_embedded nor api_key is provided, but a username and password are provided, they will be used to authenticate through AuthClientPassword, assuming an OIDC Resource Owner Password flow.
If none of the above conditions are met, no authentication method will be used and a connection will be attempted with the provided host and port values without any authentication.

Limitations: The current implementation is not supporting the storage of labels, so you cannot run any evaluation workflows.

Get documents from the document store.

Note this limitation from the changelog of Weaviate 1.8.0:

.. quote:: Due to the increasing cost of each page outlined above, there is a limit to how many objects can be retrieved using pagination. By default setting the sum of offset and limit to higher than 10,000 objects, will lead to an error. If you must retrieve more than 10,000 objects, you can increase this limit by setting the environment variable QUERY_MAXIMUM_RESULTS=<desired-value>.

Warning: Setting this to arbitrarily high values can make the memory consumption
of a single query explode and single queries can slow down the entire cluster.
We recommend setting this value to the lowest possible value that does not
interfere with your users' expectations.

(https://github.com/semi-technologies/weaviate/releases/tag/v1.8.0)

Arguments:

index: Name of the index to get the documents from. If None, the DocumentStore's default index (self.index) will be used.
filters: Optional filters to narrow down the search space to documents whose metadata fulfill certain conditions. Filters are defined as nested dictionaries. The keys of the dictionaries can be a logical operator ("$and", "$or", "$not"), a comparison operator ("$eq", "$in", "$gt", "$gte", "$lt", "$lte") or a metadata field name. Logical operator keys take a dictionary of metadata field names and/or logical operators as value. Metadata field names take a dictionary of comparison operators as value. Comparison operator keys take a single value or (in case of "$in") a list of values as value. If no logical operator is provided, "$and" is used as default operation. If no comparison operator is provided, "$eq" (or "$in" if the comparison value is a list) is used as default operation.
```

}
```
```

that are most relevant to the provided queries as defined by keyword matching algorithms like BM25.

This method lets you find relevant documents for a single query string (output: List of Documents), or a a list of query strings (output: List of Lists of Documents).

Arguments:

queries: Single query or list of queries.

__Example__:

```python
filters = {
    "$and": {
        "type": {"$eq": "article"},
        "date": {"$gte": "2015-01-01", "$lt": "2021-01-01"},
        "rating": {"$gte": 3},
        "$or": {
            "genre": {"$in": ["economy", "politics"]},
            "publisher": {"$eq": "nytimes"}
        }
    }
}
# or simpler using default operators
filters = {
    "type": "article",
    "date": {"$gte": "2015-01-01", "$lt": "2021-01-01"},
    "rating": {"$gte": 3},
    "$or": {
        "genre": ["economy", "politics"],
        "publisher": "nytimes"
    }
}
```

To use the same logical operator multiple times on the same level, logical operators take
optionally a list of dictionaries as value.

__Example__:

```python
filters = {
    "$or": [
        {
            "$and": {
                "Type": "News Paper",
                "Date": {
                    "$lt": "2019-01-01"
                }
            }
        },
        {
            "$and": {
                "Type": "Blog Post",
                "Date": {
                    "$gte": "2019-01-01"
                }
            }
        }
    ]
}

top_k: How many documents to return per query.
custom_query: Custom query to be executed.
index: The name of the index in the DocumentStore from which to retrieve documents
headers: Custom HTTP headers to pass to document store client if supported (e.g. {'Authorization': 'Basic YWRtaW46cm9vdA=='} for basic authentication)
all_terms_must_match: Whether all terms of the query must match the document. If true all query terms must be present in a document in order to be retrieved (i.e the AND operator is being used implicitly between query terms: "cozy fish restaurant" -> "cozy AND fish AND restaurant"). Otherwise at least one query term must be present in a document in order to be retrieved (i.e the OR operator is being used implicitly between query terms: "cozy fish restaurant" -> "cozy OR fish OR restaurant"). Defaults to False.
scale_score: Whether to scale the similarity score to the unit interval (range of [0,1]). If true (default) similarity scores (e.g. cosine or dot_product) which naturally have a different value range will be scaled to a range of [0,1], where 1 means extremely relevant. Otherwise raw similarity scores (e.g. cosine or dot_product) will be used.

                      batch_size: Optional[int] = None)

Updates the embeddings in the document store using the encoding model specified in the retriever.

This can be useful if you want to change the embeddings for your documents (e.g. after changing the retriever config).

Arguments:

retriever: Retriever to use to update the embeddings.
index: Index name to update
update_existing_embeddings: Weaviate mandates an embedding while creating the document itself. This option must be always true for weaviate and it will update the embeddings for all the documents.
filters: Optional filters to narrow down the search space to documents whose metadata fulfill certain conditions. Filters are defined as nested dictionaries. The keys of the dictionaries can be a logical operator ("$and", "$or", "$not"), a comparison operator ("$eq", "$in", "$gt", "$gte", "$lt", "$lte") or a metadata field name. Logical operator keys take a dictionary of metadata field names and/or logical operators as value. Metadata field names take a dictionary of comparison operators as value. Comparison operator keys take a single value or (in case of "$in") a list of values as value. If no logical operator is provided, "$and" is used as default operation. If no comparison operator is provided, "$eq" (or "$in" if the comparison value is a list) is used as default operation.
```
__Example__:

```python
filters = {
    "$and": {
        "type": {"$eq": "article"},
        "date": {"$gte": "2015-01-01", "$lt": "2021-01-01"},

A DocumentStore facade enabling you to interact with the documents stored in deepset Cloud.

Thus you can run experiments like trying new nodes, pipelines, etc. without having to index your data again.

You can also use this DocumentStore to create new pipelines on deepset Cloud. To do that, take the following steps:

create a new DeepsetCloudDocumentStore without an index (e.g. DeepsetCloudDocumentStore())
create query and indexing pipelines using this DocumentStore
call Pipeline.save_to_deepset_cloud() passing the pipelines and a pipeline_config_name
call Pipeline.deploy_on_deepset_cloud() passing the pipeline_config_name

DeepsetCloudDocumentStore is not intended for use in production-like scenarios. See https://haystack.deepset.ai/components/document-store for more information.

Arguments:

api_key: Secret value of the API key. If not specified, will be read from DEEPSET_CLOUD_API_KEY environment variable. See docs on how to generate an API key for your workspace: https://docs.cloud.deepset.ai/docs/connect-deepset-cloud-to-your-application
workspace: workspace name in deepset Cloud
index: name of the index to access within the deepset Cloud workspace. This equals typically the name of your pipeline. You can run Pipeline.list_pipelines_on_deepset_cloud() to see all available ones. If you set index to None, this DocumentStore will always return empty results. This is especially useful if you want to create a new Pipeline within deepset Cloud (see Pipeline.save_to_deepset_cloud()andPipeline.deploy_on_deepset_cloud()`).
duplicate_documents: Handle duplicates document based on parameter options. Parameter options : ( 'skip','overwrite','fail') skip: Ignore the duplicates documents overwrite: Update any existing documents with the same ID when adding documents. fail: an error is raised if the document ID of the document being added already exists.
api_endpoint: The URL of the deepset Cloud API. If not specified, will be read from DEEPSET_CLOUD_API_ENDPOINT environment variable. If DEEPSET_CLOUD_API_ENDPOINT environment variable is not specified either, defaults to "https://api.cloud.deepset.ai/api/v1".
similarity: The similarity function used to compare document vectors. 'dot_product' is the default since it is more performant with DPR embeddings. 'cosine' is recommended if you are using a Sentence Transformer model.
label_index: index for the evaluation set interface
return_embedding: To return document embedding.
embedding_dim: Specifies the dimensionality of the embedding vector (only needed when using a dense retriever, for example, DensePassageRetriever pr EmbeddingRetriever, on top).
use_prefiltering: By default, DeepsetCloudDocumentStore uses post-filtering when querying with filters. To use pre-filtering instead, set this parameter to True. Note that pre-filtering comes at the cost of higher latency.
search_fields: Names of fields BM25Retriever uses to find matches to the incoming query in the documents, for example: ["content", "title"].

If no comparison operator is provided, "$eq" (or "$in" if the comparison value is a list) is used as default operation.
```
__Example__:

```python
filters = {
    "$and": {
        "type": {"$eq": "article"},
        "date": {"$gte": "2015-01-01", "$lt": "2021-01-01"},
        "rating": {"$gte": 3},
        "$or": {
            "genre": {"$in": ["economy", "politics"]},
            "publisher": {"$eq": "nytimes"}
        }
    }
}
```
```
return_embedding: Whether to return the document embeddings.
batch_size: When working with large number of documents, batching can help reduce memory footprint.
headers: Custom HTTP headers to pass to document store client if supported (e.g. {'Authorization': 'Basic YWRtaW46cm9vdA=='} for basic authentication)

Module pinecone

PineconeDocumentStore

class PineconeDocumentStore(BaseDocumentStore)

Document store for very large scale embedding based dense retrievers like the DPR. This is a hosted document store, this means that your vectors will not be stored locally but in the cloud. This means that the similarity search will be run on the cloud as well.

It implements the Pinecone vector database (https://www.pinecone.io) to perform similarity search on vectors. In order to use this document store, you need an API key that you can obtain by creating an account on the Pinecone website.

The document text is stored using the SQLDocumentStore, while the vector embeddings and metadata (for filtering) are indexed in a Pinecone Index.

PineconeDocumentStore.init

def __init__(api_key: str,
             environment: str = "us-west1-gcp",
             pinecone_index: Optional["pinecone.Index"] = None,

"skip": Ignore the duplicate documents.
"overwrite": Update any existing documents with the same ID when adding documents.
"fail": An error is raised if the document ID of the document being added already exists.
recreate_index: If set to True, an existing Pinecone index will be deleted and a new one will be created using the config you are using for initialization. Be aware that all data in the old index will be lost if you choose to recreate the index. Be aware that both the document_index and the label_index will be recreated.
metadata_config: Which metadata fields should be indexed, part of the selective metadata filtering feature. Should be in the format {"indexed": ["metadata-field-1", "metadata-field-2", "metadata-field-n"]}. By default, no fields are indexed.

PineconeDocumentStore.update_embeddings

def update_embeddings(retriever: DenseRetriever,
                      index: Optional[str] = None,
                      update_existing_embeddings: bool = True,

                      document_chunk_size: int = DEFAULT_DOCUMENT_CHUNK_SIZE)

Updates the embeddings in the document store using the encoding model specified in the retriever.

This can be useful if you want to add or change the embeddings for your documents (e.g. after changing the retriever config).

Arguments:

retriever: Retriever to use to get embeddings for text.
index: Index name for which embeddings are to be updated. If set to None, the default self.index is used.
update_existing_embeddings: Whether to update existing embeddings of the documents. If set to False, only documents without embeddings are processed. This mode can be used for incremental updating of embeddings, wherein, only newly indexed documents get processed.
filters: Optional filters to narrow down the documents for which embeddings are to be updated. Filters are defined as nested dictionaries. The keys of the dictionaries can be a logical operator ("$and", "$or", "$not"), a comparison operator ("$eq", "$in", "$gt", "$gte", "$lt", "$lte") or a metadata field name. Logical operator keys take a dictionary of metadata field names and/or logical operators as value. Metadata field names take a dictionary of comparison operators as value. Comparison operator keys take a single value or (in case of "$in") a list of values as value. If no logical operator is provided, "$and" is used as default operation. If no comparison operator is provided, "$eq" (or "$in" if the comparison value is a list) is used as default operation. Example:
```
```python
filters = {
    "$and": {
        "type": {"$eq": "article"},

}
```
```
batch_size: Number of documents to process at a time. When working with large number of documents, batching can help reduce memory footprint.
namespace: Optional namespace to retrieve document from. If not specified, None is default.
use_async: If set to True, Pinecone index will update embeddings in parallel.
document_chunk_size: Number of documents to process at a time. If use_async is set to True, along with batch_size will speed up updating the embeddings by doing it in parallel.

The keys of the dictionaries can be a logical operator ("$and", "$or", "$not"), a comparison operator ("$eq", "$in", "$gt", "$gte", "$lt", "$lte") or a metadata field name. Logical operator keys take a dictionary of metadata field names and/or logical operators as value. Metadata field names take a dictionary of comparison operators as value. Comparison operator keys take a single value or (in case of "$in") a list of values as value. If no logical operator is provided, "$and" is used as default operation. If no comparison operator is provided, "$eq" (or "$in" if the comparison value is a list) is used as default operation.
```
__Example__:

```python
filters = {
    "$and": {
        "type": {"$eq": "article"},
        "date": {"$gte": "2015-01-01", "$lt": "2021-01-01"},

top_k: How many documents to return per query.

custom_query: query string containing a mandatory ${query} and an optional ${filters} placeholder. ::

**An example custom_query:**

{
    "size": 10,
    "query": {
        "bool": {
            "should": [{"multi_match": {
                "query": ${query},                 // mandatory query placeholder
                "type": "most_fields",
                "fields": ["content", "title"]}}],
            "filter": ${filters}                 // optional filters placeholder
        }
    },
}
 ```

**For this custom_query, a sample retrieve() could be:**
```python
self.retrieve(query="Why did the revenue increase?",
              filters={"years": ["2019"], "quarters": ["Q1", "Q2"]})

**Example custom_query with highlighting:**

{
    "size": 10,
    "query": {
        "bool": {
            "should": [{"multi_match": {
                "query": ${query},                 // mandatory query placeholder
                "type": "most_fields",
                "fields": ["content", "title"]}}],
        }
    },
    "highlight": {             // enable highlighting
        "fields": {            // for fields content and title
            "content": {},
            "title": {}
        }
    },
}
 ```

 **For this custom_query, highlighting info can be accessed by:**
```python
docs = self.retrieve(query="Why did the revenue increase?")
highlighted_content = docs[0].meta["highlighted"]["content"]
highlighted_title = docs[0].meta["highlighted"]["title"]

all_terms_must_match: Whether all terms of the query must match the document. If true all query terms must be present in a document in order to be retrieved (i.e the AND operator is being used implicitly between query terms: "cozy fish restaurant" -> "cozy AND fish AND restaurant"). Otherwise at least one query term must be present in a document in order to be retrieved (i.e the OR operator is being used implicitly between query terms: "cozy fish restaurant" -> "cozy OR fish OR restaurant"). Defaults to false.
scale_score: Whether to scale the similarity score to the unit interval (range of [0,1]). If true (default) similarity scores (e.g. cosine or dot_product) which naturally have a different value range will be scaled to a range of [0,1], where 1 means extremely relevant. Otherwise raw similarity scores (e.g. cosine or dot_product) will be used.

The keys of the dictionaries can be a logical operator ("$and", "$or", "$not"), a comparison operator ("$eq", "$in", "$gt", "$gte", "$lt", "$lte") or a metadata field name. Logical operator keys take a dictionary of metadata field names and/or logical operators as value. Metadata field names take a dictionary of comparison operators as value. Comparison operator keys take a single value or (in case of "$in") a list of values as value. If no logical operator is provided, "$and" is used as default operation. If no comparison operator is provided, "$eq" (or "$in" if the comparison value is a list) is used as default operation.
```
__Example__:

```python
filters = {
    "$and": {
        "type": {"$eq": "article"},
        "date": {"$gte": "2015-01-01", "$lt": "2021-01-01"},

open_domain: When True, labels are aggregated purely based on the question text alone. When False, labels are aggregated in a closed domain fashion based on the question text and also the id of the document that the label is tied to. In this setting, this function might return multiple MultiLabel objects with the same question string.
headers: Custom HTTP headers to pass to document store client if supported (e.g. {'Authorization': 'Basic YWRtaW46cm9vdA=='} for basic authentication)
aggregate_by_meta: The names of the Label meta fields by which to aggregate. For example: ["product_id"]
drop_negative_labels: When True, labels with incorrect answers and documents are dropped.

Arguments:

filename: Name of the file containing evaluation data (json or jsonl)
doc_index: Elasticsearch index where evaluation documents should be stored
label_index: Elasticsearch index where labeled questions should be stored
batch_size: Optional number of documents that are loaded and processed at a time. When set to None (default) all documents are processed at once.

_ElasticsearchDocumentStore.get_all_documents_generator

def get_all_documents_generator(
    index: Optional[str] = None,
    filters: Optional[FilterType] = None,
    return_embedding: Optional[bool] = None,
    batch_size: int = 10_000,
    headers: Optional[Dict[str,
                           str]] = None) -> Generator[Document, None, None]

Get documents from the document store. Under-the-hood, documents are fetched in batches from the

document store and yielded as individual documents. This method can be used to iteratively process a large number of documents without having to load all documents in memory.

Arguments:

index: Name of the index to get the documents from. If None, the DocumentStore's default index (self.index) will be used.
filters: Optional filters to narrow down the documents to return. Filters are defined as nested dictionaries. The keys of the dictionaries can be a logical operator ("$and", "$or", "$not"), a comparison operator ("$eq", "$in", "$gt", "$gte", "$lt", "$lte") or a metadata field name. Logical operator keys take a dictionary of metadata field names and/or logical operators as value. Metadata field names take a dictionary of comparison operators as value. Comparison operator keys take a single value or (in case of "$in") a list of values as value. If no logical operator is provided, "$and" is used as default operation. If no comparison operator is provided, "$eq" (or "$in" if the comparison value is a list) is used as default operation.
```
__Example__:

```python
filters = {
    "$and": {
        "type": {"$eq": "article"},
        "date": {"$gte": "2015-01-01", "$lt": "2021-01-01"},
        "rating": {"$gte": 3},
        "$or": {
            "genre": {"$in": ["economy", "politics"]},
            "publisher": {"$eq": "nytimes"}
        }
    }
}
```

top_k: How many documents to return per query.

custom_query: query string containing a mandatory ${query} and an optional ${filters} placeholder. ::

**An example custom_query:**

{
    "size": 10,
    "query": {
        "bool": {
            "should": [{"multi_match": {
                "query": ${query},                 // mandatory query placeholder
                "type": "most_fields",
                "fields": ["content", "title"]}}],
            "filter": ${filters}                 // optional filters placeholder
        }
    },
}
 ```

**For this custom_query, a sample retrieve() could be:**
```python
self.retrieve(query="Why did the revenue increase?",
              filters={"years": ["2019"], "quarters": ["Q1", "Q2"]})

**Example custom_query with highlighting:**

{
    "size": 10,
    "query": {
        "bool": {
            "should": [{"multi_match": {
                "query": ${query},                 // mandatory query placeholder
                "type": "most_fields",
                "fields": ["content", "title"]}}],
        }
    },
    "highlight": {             // enable highlighting
        "fields": {            // for fields content and title
            "content": {},
            "title": {}
        }
    },
}
 ```

 **For this custom_query, highlighting info can be accessed by:**
```python
docs = self.retrieve(query="Why did the revenue increase?")
highlighted_content = docs[0].meta["highlighted"]["content"]
highlighted_title = docs[0].meta["highlighted"]["title"]

all_terms_must_match: Whether all terms of the query must match the document. If true all query terms must be present in a document in order to be retrieved (i.e the AND operator is being used implicitly between query terms: "cozy fish restaurant" -> "cozy AND fish AND restaurant"). Otherwise at least one query term must be present in a document in order to be retrieved (i.e the OR operator is being used implicitly between query terms: "cozy fish restaurant" -> "cozy OR fish OR restaurant"). Defaults to false.
scale_score: Whether to scale the similarity score to the unit interval (range of [0,1]). If true (default) similarity scores (e.g. cosine or dot_product) which naturally have a different value range will be scaled to a range of [0,1], where 1 means extremely relevant. Otherwise raw similarity scores (e.g. cosine or dot_product) will be used.

_ElasticsearchDocumentStore.get_all_labels_aggregated

def get_all_labels_aggregated(
        index: Optional[str] = None,
        filters: Optional[FilterType] = None,
        open_domain: bool = True,
        drop_negative_labels: bool = False,
        drop_no_answers: bool = False,
        aggregate_by_meta: Optional[Union[str, list]] = None,
        headers: Optional[Dict[str, str]] = None) -> List[MultiLabel]

Return all labels in the DocumentStore, aggregated into MultiLabel objects.

Arguments:

index: Name of the index to get the labels from. If None, the DocumentStore's default index (self.index) will be used.
filters: Optional filters to narrow down the search space to documents whose metadata fulfill certain conditions. Filters are defined as nested dictionaries. The keys of the dictionaries can be a logical operator ("$and", "$or", "$not"), a comparison operator ("$eq", "$in", "$gt", "$gte", "$lt", "$lte") or a metadata field name. Logical operator keys take a dictionary of metadata field names and/or logical operators as value. Metadata field names take a dictionary of comparison operators as value. Comparison operator keys take a single value or (in case of "$in") a list of values as value. If no logical operator is provided, "$and" is used as default operation. If no comparison operator is provided, "$eq" (or "$in" if the comparison value is a list) is used as default operation.
```
__Example__:

```python
filters = {
    "$and": {
        "type": {"$eq": "article"},
        "date": {"$gte": "2015-01-01", "$lt": "2021-01-01"},
        "rating": {"$gte": 3},
        "$or": {
            "genre": {"$in": ["economy", "politics"]},
            "publisher": {"$eq": "nytimes"}
        }
    }
}
```
```
open_domain: When True, labels are aggregated purely based on the question text alone. When False, labels are aggregated in a closed domain fashion based on the question text and also the id of the document that the label is tied to. In this setting, this function might return multiple MultiLabel objects with the same question string.
headers: Custom HTTP headers to pass to document store client if supported (e.g. {'Authorization': 'Basic YWRtaW46cm9vdA=='} for basic authentication)
aggregate_by_meta: The names of the Label meta fields by which to aggregate. For example: ["product_id"]
drop_negative_labels: When True, labels with incorrect answers and documents are dropped.
drop_no_answers: When True, labels with no answers are dropped.

_ElasticsearchDocumentStore.normalize_embedding

@staticmethod
def normalize_embedding(emb: np.ndarray) -> None

Performs L2 normalization of embeddings vector inplace. Input can be a single vector (1D array) or a matrix (2D array).

_ElasticsearchDocumentStore.add_eval_data

def add_eval_data(filename: str,
                  doc_index: str = "eval_document",
                  label_index: str = "label",
                  batch_size: Optional[int] = None,
                  preprocessor: Optional[PreProcessor] = None,
                  max_docs: Optional[Union[int, bool]] = None,
                  open_domain: bool = False,
                  headers: Optional[Dict[str, str]] = None)

Adds a SQuAD-formatted file to the DocumentStore in order to be able to perform evaluation on it.

If a jsonl file and a batch_size is passed to the function, documents are loaded batchwise from disk and also indexed batchwise to the DocumentStore in order to prevent out of memory errors.

Arguments:

filename: Name of the file containing evaluation data (json or jsonl)
doc_index: Elasticsearch index where evaluation documents should be stored
label_index: Elasticsearch index where labeled questions should be stored
batch_size: Optional number of documents that are loaded and processed at a time. When set to None (default) all documents are processed at once.
preprocessor: Optional PreProcessor to preprocess evaluation documents. It can be used for splitting documents into passages (and assigning labels to corresponding passages). Currently the PreProcessor does not support split_by sentence, cleaning nor split_overlap != 0. When set to None (default) preprocessing is disabled.
max_docs: Optional number of documents that will be loaded. When set to None (default) all available eval documents are used.
open_domain: Set this to True if your file is an open domain dataset where two different answers to the same question might be found in different contexts.
headers: Custom HTTP headers to pass to document store client if supported (e.g. {'Authorization': 'Basic YWRtaW46cm9vdA=='} for basic authentication)

_ElasticsearchDocumentStore.run

def run(documents: List[Union[dict, Document]],
        index: Optional[str] = None,
        headers: Optional[Dict[str, str]] = None,
        id_hash_keys: Optional[List[str]] = None)

Run requests of document stores

Arguments:

documents: A list of dicts that are documents.
headers: A list of headers.
index: Optional name of index where the documents shall be written to. If None, the DocumentStore's default index (self.index) will be used.
id_hash_keys: List of the fields that the hashes of the ids are generated from.

_ElasticsearchDocumentStore.describe_documents

def describe_documents(index=None)

Return a summary of the documents in the document store

eval_data_from_json

def eval_data_from_json(
        filename: str,
        max_docs: Optional[Union[int, bool]] = None,
        preprocessor: Optional[PreProcessor] = None,
        open_domain: bool = False) -> Tuple[List[Document], List[Label]]

Read Documents + Labels from a SQuAD-style file.

Document and Labels can then be indexed to the DocumentStore and be used for evaluation.

Arguments:

filename: Path to file in SQuAD format
max_docs: This sets the number of documents that will be loaded. By default, this is set to None, thus reading in all available eval documents.
open_domain: Set this to True if your file is an open domain dataset where two different answers to the same question might be found in different contexts.

eval_data_from_jsonl

def eval_data_from_jsonl(
    filename: str,
    batch_size: Optional[int] = None,
    max_docs: Optional[Union[int, bool]] = None,
    preprocessor: Optional[PreProcessor] = None,
    open_domain: bool = False
) -> Generator[Tuple[List[Document], List[Label]], None, None]

Read Documents + Labels from a SQuAD-style file in jsonl format, i.e. one document per line.

Document and Labels can then be indexed to the DocumentStore and be used for evaluation.

This is a generator which will yield one tuple per iteration containing a list of batch_size documents and a list with the documents' labels. If batch_size is set to None, this method will yield all documents and labels.

Arguments:

filename: Path to file in SQuAD format
max_docs: This sets the number of documents that will be loaded. By default, this is set to None, thus reading in all available eval documents.
open_domain: Set this to True if your file is an open domain dataset where two different answers to the same question might be found in different contexts.

squad_json_to_jsonl

def squad_json_to_jsonl(squad_file: str, output_file: str)

Converts a SQuAD-json-file into jsonl format with one document per line.

Arguments:

squad_file: SQuAD-file in json format.
output_file: Name of output file (SQuAD in jsonl format)

convert_date_to_rfc3339

def convert_date_to_rfc3339(date: str) -> str

Converts a date to RFC3339 format, as Weaviate requires dates to be in RFC3339 format including the time and timezone.

If the provided date string does not contain a time and/or timezone, we use 00:00 as default time and UTC as default time zone.

This method cannot be part of WeaviateDocumentStore, as this would result in a circular import between weaviate.py and filter_utils.py.
