**TL;DR much of the provided `Makefile` targets were broken, and any
time I wanted to preview changes locally I either had to refer to a
command Chester gave me or try waiting on a Vercel preview deployment.
With this PR, everything should behave like normal.**
Significant updates to the `Makefile` and documentation files, focusing
on improving usability, adding clear messaging, and fixing/enhancing
documentation workflows.
### Updates to `Makefile`:
#### Enhanced build and cleaning processes:
- Added informative messages (e.g., "📚 Building LangChain
documentation...") to makefile targets like `docs_build`, `docs_clean`,
and `api_docs_build` for better user feedback during execution.
- Introduced a `clean-cache` target to the `docs` `Makefile` to clear
cached dependencies and ensure clean builds.
#### Improved dependency handling:
- Modified `install-py-deps` to create a `.venv/deps_installed` marker,
preventing redundant/duplicate dependency installations and improving
efficiency.
#### Streamlined file generation and infrastructure setup:
- Added caching for the LangServe README download and parallelized
feature table generation
- Added user-friendly completion messages for targets like `copy-infra`
and `render`.
#### Documentation server updates:
- Enhanced the `start` target with messages indicating server start and
URL for local documentation viewing.
---
### Documentation Improvements:
#### Content clarity and consistency:
- Standardized section titles for consistency across documentation
files.

* Adding support for more Chroma client options (`HttpClient` and
`CloundClient`). This includes adding arguments necessary for
instantiating these clients.
* Adding support for Chroma's new persisted collection configuration (we
moved index configuration into this new construct).
* Delegate `Settings` configuration to Chroma's client constructors.
Updates dependencies to Chroma to integrate the major release of Chroma
with improved performance, and to fix issues users have been seeing
using the latest chroma docker image with langchain-chroma
https://github.com/langchain-ai/langchain/issues/31047#issuecomment-2850790841
Updates chromadb dependency to >=1.0.9
This also removes the dependency of chroma-hnswlib, meaning it can run
against python 3.13 runners for tests as well.
Tested this by pulling the latest Chroma docker image, running
langchain-chroma using client mode
```
httpClient = chromadb.HttpClient(host="localhost", port=8000)
vector_store = Chroma(
client=httpClient,
collection_name="test",
embedding_function=embeddings,
)
```

- Example: "community: add foobar LLM"
**Description**:
* Starting to put together some PR's to fix the typing around
`langchain-chroma` `filter` and `where_document` query filtering, as
mentioned:
https://github.com/langchain-ai/langchain/issues/30879https://github.com/langchain-ai/langchain/issues/30507
The typing of `dict[str, str]` is on the one hand too restrictive (marks
valid filter expressions as ill-typed) and also too permissive (allows
illegal filter expressions). That's not what this PR addresses though.
This PR just removes from the documentation some examples of filters
that are illegal, and also syntactically incorrect: (a) dictionaries
with keys like `$contains` but the key is missing quotation marks; (b)
dictionaries with multiple entries - this is illegal in Chroma filter
syntax and will raise an exception. (`{"foo": "bar", "qux": "baz"}`).
Filter dictionaries in Chroma must have one and one key only. Again this
is just the documentation issue, which is the lowest hanging fruit. I
also think we need to update the types for `filter` and `where_document`
to be (at the very least `dict[str, Any]`), or, since we have access to
Chroma's types, they should be `Where` and `WhereDocument` types. This
has a wider blast radius though, so I'm starting small.
This PR does not fix the issues mentioned above, it's just starting to
get the ball rolling, and cleaning up the documentation.

Follow up to https://github.com/langchain-ai/langsmith-sdk/pull/1696,
I've bumped the `langsmith` version where applicable in `uv.lock`.
Type checking problems here because deps have been updated in
`pyproject.toml` and `uv lock` hasn't been run - we should enforce that
in the future - goes with the other dependabot todos :).
Generally, this PR is CI performance focused + aims to clean up some
dependencies at the same time.
1. Unpins upper bounds for `numpy` in all `pyproject.toml` files where
`numpy` is specified
2. Requires `numpy >= 2.1.0` for Python 3.13 and `numpy > v1.26.0` for
Python 3.12, plus a `numpy` min version bump for `chroma`
3. Speeds up CI by minutes - linting on Python 3.13, installing `numpy <
2.1.0` was taking [~3
minutes](https://github.com/langchain-ai/langchain/actions/runs/14316342925/job/40123305868?pr=30713),
now the entire env setup takes a few seconds
4. Deleted the `numpy` test dependency from partners where that was not
used, specifically `huggingface`, `voyageai`, `xai`, and `nomic`.
It's a bit unfortunate that `langchain-community` depends on `numpy`, we
might want to try to fix that in the future...
Closes https://github.com/langchain-ai/langchain/issues/26026

These are set in Github workflows, but forgot to add them to most
makefiles for convenience when developing locally.
`uv run` will automatically sync the lock file. Because many of our
development dependencies are local installs, it will pick up version
changes and update the lock file. Passing `--frozen` or setting this
environment variable disables the behavior.

- Run standard integration tests in Chroma
- Add `get_by_ids` method
- Fix bug in `add_texts`: if a list of `ids` is passed but any of them
are None, Chroma will raise an exception. Here we assign a uuid.
Description:
* Added internal `Document.id` support to Chroma VectorStore
Dependencies:
* https://github.com/langchain-ai/langchain/pull/27968 should be merged
first and this PR should be re-based on top of those changes.
Tests:
* Modified/Added tests for `Document.id` support. All tests are passing.
Note: I am not a member of the Chroma team.

This PR adds an additional method to `Chroma` to retrieve the embedding
vectors, besides the most relevant Documents. This is sometimes of use
when you need to run a postprocessing algorithm on the retrieved results
based on the vectors, which has been the case for me lately.
Example issue (discussion) requesting this change:

Description:
* I'm planning to add `Document.id` support to the Chroma VectorStore,
but first I wanted to make sure all the integration tests were passing
first. They weren't. This PR fixes the broken tests.
* I found 2 issues:
* This change (from a year ago, exactly :) ) for supporting multi-modal
embeddings:
https://docs.trychroma.com/deployment/migration#migration-to-0.4.16---november-7,-2023
* This change https://github.com/langchain-ai/langchain/pull/27827 due
to an update in the chroma client.
Also ran `format` and `lint` on the changes.
Note: I am not a member of the Chroma team.
**Description:** Deprecated version of Chroma >=0.5.5 <0.5.12 due to a
serious correctness issue that caused some embeddings for deployments
with multiple collections to be lost (read more on the issue in Chroma
repo)
**Issue:** chroma-core/chroma#2922 (fixed by chroma-core/chroma##2923
and released in
[0.5.13](https://github.com/chroma-core/chroma/releases/tag/0.5.13))
**Dependencies:** N/A
**Twitter handle:** `@t_azarov`
Example updated for vectorstore ChromaDB.
If we want to apply multiple filters then ChromaDB supports filters like
this:
