Setup

To access ChatMistralAI models you’ll need to create a Mistral account, get an API key, and install the langchain-mistralai integration package.

Credentials

A valid API key is needed to communicate with the API. Once you’ve done this set the MISTRAL_API_KEY environment variable:

import getpass
import os

if "MISTRAL_API_KEY" not in os.environ:
    os.environ["MISTRAL_API_KEY"] = getpass.getpass("Enter your Mistral API key: ")

To enable automated tracing of your model calls, set your LangSmith API key:

os.environ["LANGSMITH_API_KEY"] = getpass.getpass("Enter your LangSmith API key: ")
os.environ["LANGSMITH_TRACING"] = "true"

Installation

The LangChain Mistral integration lives in the langchain-mistralai package:

pip install -qU langchain-mistralai

Instantiation

Now we can instantiate our model object and generate chat completions:

from langchain_mistralai import ChatMistralAI

llm = ChatMistralAI(
    model="mistral-large-latest",
    temperature=0,
    max_retries=2,
    # other params...
)

Invocation

messages = [
    (
        "system",
        "You are a helpful assistant that translates English to French. Translate the user sentence.",
    ),
    ("human", "I love programming."),
]
ai_msg = llm.invoke(messages)
ai_msg

AIMessage(content='Sure, I\'d be happy to help you translate that sentence into French! The English sentence "I love programming" translates to "J\'aime programmer" in French. Let me know if you have any other questions or need further assistance!', response_metadata={'token_usage': {'prompt_tokens': 32, 'total_tokens': 84, 'completion_tokens': 52}, 'model': 'mistral-small', 'finish_reason': 'stop'}, id='run-64bac156-7160-4b68-b67e-4161f63e021f-0', usage_metadata={'input_tokens': 32, 'output_tokens': 52, 'total_tokens': 84})

print(ai_msg.content)

Sure, I'd be happy to help you translate that sentence into French! The English sentence "I love programming" translates to "J'aime programmer" in French. Let me know if you have any other questions or need further assistance!
