Interface Chain<I,​O>

Type Parameters:
I - the chain input type
O - the chain output type
All Known Implementing Classes:
AzureOpenAiChatChain, CombineDocumentsChain, LargeLanguageModelChain, LuceneRetrievalChain, MapAnswerWithSourcesChain, OpenAiChatChain, RetrievalChain, SummarizeDocumentsChain
Functional Interface:
This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.
@FunctionalInterface
public interface Chain<I,​O>
Basic interface for all modular components in this repository. A Chain accepts an input of type *I* and provides an output of type *O*. Using the method chain(Chain) passing another Chain, a new Chain can be created which accepts the original chain's input and provided the new chain's output.
