embed: Generate text embeddings

In tidyllm: Tidy Integration of Large Language Models

Generate text embeddings

Description

The embed() function allows you to embed a text via a specified provider. It routes the input to the appropriate provider-specific embedding function.

Usage

embed(
  .input,
  .provider = getOption("tidyllm_embed_default"),
  .model = NULL,
  .truncate = NULL,
  .timeout = NULL,
  .dry_run = NULL,
  .max_tries = NULL
)

Arguments

.input	A character vector of texts v, a list of texts and image objects, or an LLMMessage object
.provider	A function or function call specifying the language model provider and any additional parameters. This should be a call to a provider function like openai(), ollama(), etc. You can also set a default provider function via the tidyllm_embed_default option.
.model	The embedding model to use
.truncate	Whether to truncate inputs to fit the model's context length
.timeout	Timeout for the API request in seconds
.dry_run	If TRUE, perform a dry run and return the request object.
.max_tries	Maximum retry attempts for requests

Value

A tibble with two columns: input and embeddings. The input column contains the texts sent to embed, and the embeddings column is a list column where each row contains an embedding vector of the sent input.

Examples

## Not run: 
c("What is the meaning of life, the universe and everything?",
 "How much wood would a woodchuck chuck?",
 "How does the brain work?") |>
 embed(gemini)
 
## End(Not run)
