概述

在本教程中,你将学习如何构建一个能够使用 LangChain 代理 回答关于 SQL 数据库问题的代理。 从高层次来看,该代理将:
1

从数据库中获取可用的表和模式

2

决定哪些表与问题相关

3

获取相关表的模式

4

根据问题和模式信息生成查询

5

使用大语言模型检查查询中的常见错误

6

执行查询并返回结果

7

纠正数据库引擎发现的错误,直到查询成功

8

根据结果制定响应

构建 SQL 数据库的问答系统需要执行模型生成的 SQL 查询。这样做存在固有风险。请确保你的数据库连接权限始终尽可能严格地限定在代理所需范围内。这将减轻(但不能消除)构建模型驱动系统的风险。

概念

我们将涵盖以下概念:

设置

安装

npm i langchain @langchain/core typeorm sqlite3 zod

LangSmith

设置 LangSmith 以检查你的链或代理内部发生的情况。然后设置以下环境变量:
export LANGSMITH_TRACING="true"
export LANGSMITH_API_KEY="..."

1. 选择大语言模型

选择一个支持 工具调用 的模型:
👉 阅读 OpenAI 聊天模型集成文档
npm install @langchain/openai
import { initChatModel } from "langchain";

process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY = "your-api-key";

const model = await initChatModel("gpt-5.4");
下面示例中显示的输出使用了 OpenAI。

2. 配置数据库

你将为本教程创建一个 SQLite 数据库。SQLite 是一个轻量级数据库,易于设置和使用。我们将加载 chinook 数据库,这是一个代表数字媒体商店的示例数据库。 为方便起见,我们将数据库 (Chinook.db) 托管在一个公共的 GCS 存储桶中。
import fs from "node:fs/promises";
import path from "node:path";

const url =
  "https://storage.googleapis.com/benchmarks-artifacts/chinook/Chinook.db";
const localPath = path.resolve("Chinook.db");

async function resolveDbPath() {
  if (await fs.exists(localPath)) {
    return localPath;
  }
  const resp = await fetch(url);
  if (!resp.ok)
    throw new Error(`Failed to download DB. Status code: ${resp.status}`);
  const buf = Buffer.from(await resp.arrayBuffer());
  await fs.writeFile(localPath, buf);
  return localPath;
}

3. 添加用于数据库交互的工具

使用 langchain/sql_db 中提供的 SqlDatabase 包装器与数据库交互。该包装器提供了一个简单的接口来执行 SQL 查询和获取结果:
import { SqlDatabase } from "@langchain/classic/sql_db";
import { DataSource } from "typeorm";

let db: SqlDatabase | undefined;
async function getDb() {
  if (!db) {
    const dbPath = await resolveDbFile();
    const datasource = new DataSource({ type: "sqlite", database: dbPath });
    db = await SqlDatabase.fromDataSourceParams({ appDataSource: datasource });
  }
  return db;
}

async function getSchema() {
  const db = await getDb();
  return await db.getTableInfo();
}

4. 执行 SQL 查询

在运行命令之前,先在 _safe_sql 中检查大语言模型生成的命令:
const DENY_RE =
  /\b(INSERT|UPDATE|DELETE|ALTER|DROP|CREATE|REPLACE|TRUNCATE)\b/i;
const HAS_LIMIT_TAIL_RE = /\blimit\b\s+\d+(\s*,\s*\d+)?\s*;?\s*$/i;

function sanitizeSqlQuery(q) {
  let query = String(q ?? "").trim();

  // 阻止多条语句(允许一个可选的尾部分号)
  const semis = [...query].filter((c) => c === ";").length;
  if (semis > 1 || (query.endsWith(";") && query.slice(0, -1).includes(";"))) {
    throw new Error("multiple statements are not allowed.");
  }
  query = query.replace(/;+\s*$/g, "").trim();

  // 只读检查
  if (!query.toLowerCase().startsWith("select")) {
    throw new Error("Only SELECT statements are allowed");
  }
  if (DENY_RE.test(query)) {
    throw new Error("DML/DDL detected. Only read-only queries are permitted.");
  }

  // 仅在未存在 LIMIT 时追加
  if (!HAS_LIMIT_TAIL_RE.test(query)) {
    query += " LIMIT 5";
  }
  return query;
}
然后,使用 SQLDatabaserun 方法通过 execute_sql 工具执行命令:
import { tool } from "langchain";
import * as z from "zod";

const executeSql = tool(
  async ({ query }) => {
    const q = sanitizeSqlQuery(query);
    try {
      const result = await db.run(q);
      return typeof result === "string"
        ? result
        : JSON.stringify(result, null, 2);
    } catch (e) {
      throw new Error(e?.message ?? String(e));
    }
  },
  {
    name: "execute_sql",
    description: "Execute a READ-ONLY SQLite SELECT query and return results.",
    schema: z.object({
      query: z.string().describe("SQLite SELECT query to execute (read-only)."),
    }),
  },
);

5. 使用 createAgent

使用 createAgent 以最少的代码构建一个 ReAct 代理。该代理将解释请求并生成 SQL 命令。工具将检查命令的安全性,然后尝试执行该命令。如果命令有错误,错误消息将返回给模型。然后,模型可以检查原始请求和新的错误消息,并生成一个新的命令。这个过程可以持续进行,直到大语言模型成功生成命令或达到结束计数。这种向模型提供反馈(此处为错误消息)的模式非常强大。 使用描述性的系统提示初始化代理以自定义其行为:
import { SystemMessage } from "langchain";

const getSystemPrompt = async () =>
  new SystemMessage(`You are a careful SQLite analyst.

Authoritative schema (do not invent columns/tables):
${await getSchema()}

Rules:
- Think step-by-step.
- When you need data, call the tool \`execute_sql\` with ONE SELECT query.
- Read-only only; no INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE/ALTER/DROP/CREATE/REPLACE/TRUNCATE.
- Limit to 5 rows unless user explicitly asks otherwise.
- If the tool returns 'Error:', revise the SQL and try again.
- Limit the number of attempts to 5.
- If you are not successful after 5 attempts, return a note to the user.
- Prefer explicit column lists; avoid SELECT *.
`);
现在,使用模型、工具和提示创建代理:
import { createAgent } from "langchain";

const agent = createAgent({
  model: "gpt-5.4",
  tools: [executeSql],
  systemPrompt: getSystemPrompt,
});

6. 运行代理

在示例查询上运行代理并观察其行为:
const question = "Which genre, on average, has the longest tracks?";
const stream = await agent.stream(
  { messages: [{ role: "user", content: question }] },
  { streamMode: "values" },
);
for await (const step of stream) {
  const message = step.messages.at(-1);
  console.log(`${message.role}: ${JSON.stringify(message.content, null, 2)}`);
}
human: Which genre, on average, has the longest tracks?
ai:
tool: [{"Genre":"Sci Fi & Fantasy","AvgMilliseconds":2911783.0384615385}]
ai: Sci Fi & Fantasy — average track length ≈ 48.5 minutes (about 2,911,783 ms).
代理正确编写了查询,检查了查询,并运行了它以提供最终响应。
你可以在 LangSmith 跟踪 中检查上述运行的所有方面,包括采取的步骤、调用的工具、大语言模型看到的提示等。

(可选)使用 Studio

Studio 提供了一个“客户端”循环以及内存,因此你可以将其作为聊天界面运行并查询数据库。你可以提出诸如“告诉我数据库的模式”或“显示前5名客户的发票”之类的问题。你将看到生成的 SQL 命令和结果输出。有关如何启动的详细信息如下。
除了前面提到的包之外,你还需要:
npm i -g @langchain/langgraph-cli@latest
在你将运行的目录中,你需要一个包含以下内容的 langgraph.json 文件:
{
  "dependencies": ["."],
  "graphs": {
    "agent": "./sqlAgent.ts:agent",
    "graph": "./sqlAgentLanggraph.ts:graph"
  },
  "env": ".env"
}
import fs from "node:fs/promises";
import path from "node:path";
import { SqlDatabase } from "@langchain/classic/sql_db";
import { DataSource } from "typeorm";
import { SystemMessage, createAgent, tool } from "langchain";
import * as z from "zod";

const url =
  "https://storage.googleapis.com/benchmarks-artifacts/chinook/Chinook.db";
const localPath = path.resolve("Chinook.db");

async function resolveDbPath() {
  if (await fs.exists(localPath)) {
    return localPath;
  }
  const resp = await fetch(url);
  if (!resp.ok)
    throw new Error(`Failed to download DB. Status code: ${resp.status}`);
  const buf = Buffer.from(await resp.arrayBuffer());
  await fs.writeFile(localPath, buf);
  return localPath;
}

let db: SqlDatabase | undefined;
async function getDb() {
  if (!db) {
    const dbPath = await resolveDbPath();
    const datasource = new DataSource({ type: "sqlite", database: dbPath });
    db = await SqlDatabase.fromDataSourceParams({ appDataSource: datasource });
  }
  return db;
}

async function getSchema() {
  const db = await getDb();
  return await db.getTableInfo();
}

const DENY_RE =
  /\b(INSERT|UPDATE|DELETE|ALTER|DROP|CREATE|REPLACE|TRUNCATE)\b/i;
const HAS_LIMIT_TAIL_RE = /\blimit\b\s+\d+(\s*,\s*\d+)?\s*;?\s*$/i;

function sanitizeSqlQuery(q) {
  let query = String(q ?? "").trim();

  // 阻止多条语句(允许一个可选的尾部分号)
  const semis = [...query].filter((c) => c === ";").length;
  if (semis > 1 || (query.endsWith(";") && query.slice(0, -1).includes(";"))) {
    throw new Error("multiple statements are not allowed.");
  }
  query = query.replace(/;+\s*$/g, "").trim();

  // 只读检查
  if (!query.toLowerCase().startsWith("select")) {
    throw new Error("Only SELECT statements are allowed");
  }
  if (DENY_RE.test(query)) {
    throw new Error("DML/DDL detected. Only read-only queries are permitted.");
  }

  // 仅在未存在 LIMIT 时追加
  if (!HAS_LIMIT_TAIL_RE.test(query)) {
    query += " LIMIT 5";
  }
  return query;
}

const executeSql = tool(
  async ({ query }) => {
    const q = sanitizeSqlQuery(query);
    try {
      const result = await db.run(q);
      return typeof result === "string"
        ? result
        : JSON.stringify(result, null, 2);
    } catch (e) {
      throw new Error(e?.message ?? String(e));
    }
  },
  {
    name: "execute_sql",
    description: "Execute a READ-ONLY SQLite SELECT query and return results.",
    schema: z.object({
      query: z.string().describe("SQLite SELECT query to execute (read-only)."),
    }),
  },
);

const getSystemPrompt = async () =>
  new SystemMessage(`You are a careful SQLite analyst.
