Vellum Node Library

npm shield fern shield

The Vellum Node.js library provides access to the Vellum API from JavaScript/TypeScript.

API Docs

You can find Vellum's complete API docs at docs.vellum.ai.

Installation

npm install --save vellum-ai
# or
yarn add vellum-ai

Usage

Try it out

import { VellumClient } from 'vellum-ai';

const vellum = new VellumClient({
  apiKey: 'VELLUM_API_KEY',
});

await vellum.generate({
  deploymentName: 'my-deployment',
  requests: [{ inputValues: { question: 'Could I please get a refund' } }],
});

Uploading documents

Documents can be uploaded to Vellum via either the UI or this API. Once uploaded and indexed, Vellum's Search allows you to perform semantic searches against them.

import * as fs from 'fs';

await vellum.documents.upload(fs.createReadStream('/path/to/your/file.txt'), {
  addToIndexNames: ['<your-index-name>'],
  externalId: '<your-external-id>',
  label: 'Human-friendly label for your document',
  keywords: [],
});

Beta status

This SDK is in beta, and there may be breaking changes between versions without a major version update. Therefore, we recommend pinning the package version to a specific version in your package.json file. This way, you can install the same version each time without breaking changes unless you are intentionally looking for the latest version.

Contributing

While we value open-source contributions to this SDK, this library is generated programmatically. Additions made directly to this library would have to be moved over to our generation code, otherwise they would be overwritten upon the next generated release. Feel free to open a PR as a proof of concept, but know that we will not be able to merge it as-is. We suggest opening an issue first to discuss with us!

On the other hand, contributions to the README are always very welcome!
