Databricks Unity Catalog (UC)

This notebook shows how to use UC functions as LangChain tools.

See Databricks documentation (AWS|Azure|GCP) to learn how to create SQL or Python functions in UC. Do not skip function and parameter comments, which are critical for LLMs to call functions properly.

In this example notebook, we create a simple Python function that executes arbitrary code and use it as a LangChain tool:

CREATE FUNCTION main.tools.python_exec (
  code STRING COMMENT 'Python code to execute. Remember to print the final result to stdout.'
)
RETURNS STRING
LANGUAGE PYTHON
COMMENT 'Executes Python code and returns its stdout.'
AS $$
  import sys
  from io import StringIO
  stdout = StringIO()
  sys.stdout = stdout
  exec(code)
  return stdout.getvalue()
$$

It runs in a secure and isolated environment within a Databricks SQL warehouse.
