Reproduction

1. Install the latest version of clarifai (9.10.4)
2. Run the example: https://python.langchain.com/docs/integrations/llms/clarifai

Could not import clarifai python package. Please install it with `pip install clarifai`.
File 'clarifai.py', line 77, in validate_environment:
raise ImportError( Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/vagrant/.virtualenvs/env/lib/python3.9/site-packages/langchain/llms/clarifai.py", line 74, in validate_environment
    from clarifai.auth.helper import ClarifaiAuthHelper
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'clarifai.auth'

Expected behavior

I expect ClarifaiAuthHelper to import correctly.
In the latest version of clarifai ClarifaiAuthHelper is imported in this way:

from clarifai.client.auth.helper import ClarifaiAuthHelper

Hello @ivandorte,

I'm Dosu, a bot designed to assist with the LangChain repository. I can help you troubleshoot issues, answer queries, and guide you on the journey to becoming a contributor. While we're waiting for a human maintainer to assist further, I'm here to provide initial support. Let's work this out together.

The error you're encountering is due to an incorrect import statement in the LangChain code. The ClarifaiAuthHelper class is not located in the clarifai.auth.helper module, which is why you're seeing a ModuleNotFoundError.

In the latest version of the Clarifai Python client library, the correct import statement should be:

from clarifai.client.auth.helper import ClarifaiAuthHelper

However, it seems that the LangChain code has not been updated to reflect this change. This is something that the LangChain maintainers will need to address.

In the meantime, you can manually modify the import statement in your local copy of the LangChain code. Open the file langchain/llms/clarifai.py and replace the line:

from clarifai.auth.helper import ClarifaiAuthHelper

with:

from clarifai.client.auth.helper import ClarifaiAuthHelper

This should resolve the ModuleNotFoundError you're seeing. Please note that this is a temporary workaround and it would be best to wait for an official fix from the LangChain maintainers.

As for the role of ClarifaiAuthHelper, it is used for authentication when interacting with the Clarifai API. It is initialized with the user ID, app ID, personal access token, and API base. The ClarifaiAuthHelper is used to create an authentication object (self._auth) which is then used to create a stub (self._stub) for making API calls to Clarifai. It is also used to get the user app ID proto (self._userDataObject), which is required for making certain API calls.

I hope this helps! If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

Best,
Dosu
