# LLM Providers Module The `semantica.llms` module provides a unified interface for LLM providers, supporting Groq, OpenAI, HuggingFace, and LiteLLM (100+ LLMs) with clean imports and consistent API. ## Overview The LLM Providers module abstracts away provider-specific details, providing a consistent interface for text generation across multiple LLM providers. This enables easy switching between providers and integration with GraphRAG reasoning features. ## Quick Start ```python from semantica.llms import Groq, OpenAI, HuggingFaceLLM, LiteLLM import os # Groq - Fast inference groq = Groq(model="llama-3.1-8b-instant", api_key=os.getenv("GROQ_API_KEY")) response = groq.generate("What is AI?") # OpenAI openai = OpenAI(model="gpt-4", api_key=os.getenv("OPENAI_API_KEY")) response = openai.generate("What is AI?") # HuggingFace - Local models hf = HuggingFaceLLM(model_name="gpt2") # or model="gpt2" response = hf.generate("What is AI?") # LiteLLM - Unified interface to 100+ LLMs litellm = LiteLLM(model="openai/gpt-4o", api_key=os.getenv("OPENAI_API_KEY")) response = litellm.generate("What is AI?") ``` ## Providers ### Groq Fast inference provider using Groq's API. ```python from semantica.llms import Groq groq = Groq( model="llama-3.1-8b-instant", api_key="your-api-key" # or use GROQ_API_KEY env var ) response = groq.generate("Hello, world!") structured = groq.generate_structured("Extract entities from: Apple Inc.") ``` **Parameters:** - `model` (str): Model name (default: "llama-3.1-8b-instant") - `api_key` (str, optional): Groq API key (default: from GROQ_API_KEY env var) - `**kwargs`: Additional provider options **Methods:** - `generate(prompt: str, **kwargs) -> str`: Generate text from prompt - `generate_structured(prompt: str, **kwargs) -> Dict[str, Any]`: Generate structured JSON output - `is_available() -> bool`: Check if provider is available ### OpenAI OpenAI API provider for GPT models. ```python from semantica.llms import OpenAI openai = OpenAI( model="gpt-4", api_key="your-api-key" # or use OPENAI_API_KEY env var ) response = openai.generate("Hello, world!") ``` **Parameters:** - `model` (str): Model name (default: "gpt-3.5-turbo") - `api_key` (str, optional): OpenAI API key (default: from OPENAI_API_KEY env var) - `**kwargs`: Additional provider options **Methods:** - `generate(prompt: str, **kwargs) -> str`: Generate text from prompt - `generate_structured(prompt: str, **kwargs) -> Dict[str, Any]`: Generate structured JSON output - `is_available() -> bool`: Check if provider is available ### HuggingFaceLLM Local LLM inference using HuggingFace Transformers. ```python from semantica.llms import HuggingFaceLLM hf = HuggingFaceLLM( model_name="gpt2", device="cuda" # or "cpu", default: auto-detect ) response = hf.generate("Hello, world!") ``` **Parameters:** - `model_name` (str, optional): HuggingFace model name (default: "gpt2") - `model` (str, optional): Alias for model_name (for consistency with other providers) - `device` (str, optional): Device to use ("cuda" or "cpu", default: auto-detect) - `**kwargs`: Additional provider options **Note:** Both `model` and `model_name` are supported for consistency with other providers. **Methods:** - `generate(prompt: str, **kwargs) -> str`: Generate text from prompt - `generate_structured(prompt: str, **kwargs) -> Dict[str, Any]`: Generate structured JSON output - `is_available() -> bool`: Check if provider is available ### LiteLLM Unified interface to 100+ LLM providers via LiteLLM library. ```python from semantica.llms import LiteLLM # Use any provider via LiteLLM litellm = LiteLLM( model="openai/gpt-4o", # Provider/model format api_key=os.getenv("OPENAI_API_KEY") ) # Or use other providers litellm = LiteLLM(model="anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-20250514") litellm = LiteLLM(model="groq/llama-3.1-8b-instant") litellm = LiteLLM(model="azure/gpt-4") response = litellm.generate("Hello, world!") ``` **Parameters:** - `model` (str): Model identifier in format "provider/model-name" - Examples: "openai/gpt-4o", "anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-20250514", "groq/llama-3.1-8b-instant", "azure/gpt-4" - `api_key` (str, optional): API key (can use environment variables) - `**kwargs`: Additional LiteLLM options (temperature, max_tokens, etc.) **Methods:** - `generate(prompt: str, **kwargs) -> str`: Generate text from prompt - `generate_structured(prompt: str, **kwargs) -> Dict[str, Any]`: Generate structured JSON output - `is_available() -> bool`: Check if provider is available **Supported Providers:** - OpenAI, Anthropic, Groq, Azure, Bedrock, Vertex AI, Cohere, Mistral, and 90+ more - See [LiteLLM Documentation](https://docs.litellm.ai/) for full list ## Integration with GraphRAG The LLM providers integrate seamlessly with GraphRAG reasoning: ```python from semantica.context import AgentContext from semantica.llms import Groq from semantica.vector_store import VectorStore import os context = AgentContext( vector_store=VectorStore(backend="faiss"), knowledge_graph=kg ) llm_provider = Groq( model="llama-3.1-8b-instant", api_key=os.getenv("GROQ_API_KEY") ) result = context.query_with_reasoning( query="What IPs are associated with security alerts?", llm_provider=llm_provider, max_hops=2 ) print(f"Response: {result['response']}") print(f"Reasoning Path: {result['reasoning_path']}") ``` ## Common Parameters All providers support common generation parameters: - `temperature` (float): Sampling temperature (0.0-2.0) - `max_tokens` (int): Maximum tokens to generate - `top_p` (float): Nucleus sampling parameter - `frequency_penalty` (float): Frequency penalty - `presence_penalty` (float): Presence penalty Example: ```python response = groq.generate( "What is AI?", temperature=0.7, max_tokens=500, top_p=0.9 ) ``` ## Error Handling All providers gracefully handle errors: ```python try: response = groq.generate("Hello") except ProcessingError as e: print(f"Generation failed: {e}") ``` If a provider is not available (library not installed, API key missing), a `ProcessingError` is raised with a helpful message. ## Examples ### Basic Text Generation ```python from semantica.llms import Groq groq = Groq(model="llama-3.1-8b-instant") response = groq.generate("Explain quantum computing in simple terms.") print(response) ``` ### Structured Output ```python from semantica.llms import OpenAI openai = OpenAI(model="gpt-4") result = openai.generate_structured( "Extract entities from: Apple Inc. was founded by Steve Jobs in 1976." ) # Returns: {"entities": [{"name": "Apple Inc.", "type": "Organization"}, ...]} ``` ### Using LiteLLM for Multiple Providers ```python from semantica.llms import LiteLLM # Switch between providers easily providers = [ LiteLLM(model="openai/gpt-4o"), LiteLLM(model="anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-20250514"), LiteLLM(model="groq/llama-3.1-8b-instant") ] for provider in providers: response = provider.generate("What is AI?") print(f"{provider.model}: {response[:50]}...") ``` ## Installation Most providers require additional dependencies: ```bash # Groq pip install groq # OpenAI pip install openai # HuggingFace pip install transformers torch # LiteLLM (supports 100+ providers) pip install litellm ``` ## See Also -
