import errors

[mamingsuper]

thanks for creating this amazing tool. Just a stupid question from newbie, could anyone help me to fix it? Thanks

I run from langchain.agents import load_tools

and encounter with

ImportError Traceback (most recent call last) /var/folders/1s/cmtvypz54h3f0jx3nsjzvhn80000gn/T/ipykernel_67867/2458684745.py in ----> 1 from langchain.agents import load_tools

ImportError: cannot import name 'load_tools' from 'langchain.agents' (/opt/anaconda3/envs/bertopic/lib/python3.7/site-packages/langchain/agents/init.py)

Hi! I'm also new to LangChain and have never answered questions here before, so I apologize if I'm not following the correct conventions, but I was having the same issue and was able to fix it by uninstalling Python 3.7 and reinstalling the latest version (Python 3.11.2) and using pip to uninstall/reinstall LangChain.

That fixed it for me, hope it works for you too. Good luck!

I had the same problem and fixed it by upgrading python 3.7 to python 3.9.

Is this a version problem or what? I encountered same when using python 3.11

i am using python version 3.9 but still i am getting an error while loading i am referring the doc OpenAPI chain langchain docs

from langchain.tools import OpenAPISpec

ImportError: cannot import name 'OpenAPISpec' from 'langchain.tools' (/home/superman7/anaconda3/lib/python3.9/site-packages/langchain/tools/__init__.py)

I get something similar as well,

ImportError: cannot import name 'tool' from 'langchain.tools'

Looking at the documentation, tools is defined as a function in base.py

Fixed it. I had to use

from langchain.agents import Tool

and not

from langchain.tools import BaseTool, Tool

Note: the documentation explicitly uses the following code which throws errors

from langchain.tools import BaseTool, StructuredTool, Tool, tool

Langchain is damn confusing to work with no wonder it has 1k issues.

Just a heads up to people on this thread, most of my import errors were because I was using an older version of langchain. This repo is updating like crazy (for good reason) - make sure you're up to date if you're having problems. For example the above:

from langchain.tools import BaseTool, StructuredTool, Tool

is totally valid in 1.7.0

Hi, @mamingsuper! I'm Dosu, and I'm helping the LangChain team manage their backlog. I wanted to let you know that we are marking this issue as stale.

Based on my understanding, you were experiencing an import error when trying to import the load_tools module from langchain.agents. Some users have suggested solutions such as upgrading Python to version 3.9 or 3.11. Another user mentioned that using from langchain.agents import Tool instead of from langchain.tools import BaseTool, Tool fixed their issue. Additionally, it was advised to ensure that your langchain version is up to date, as the repository is frequently updated.

Before we close this issue, we wanted to check with you if it is still relevant to the latest version of the LangChain repository. If it is, please let us know by commenting on this issue. Otherwise, feel free to close the issue yourself, or it will be automatically closed in 7 days.

Thank you for your understanding and contribution to the LangChain community!
