langchain_community & langchain packages giving error: Missing 1 required keyword-only argument: 'recursive_guard'

All of sudden langchain_community & langchain packages started throwing error: TypeError: ForwardRef._evaluate() missing 1 required keyword-only argument: 'recursive_guard'

The error getting generated somewhere in pydantic

I strongly suspect it is version mismatch. So I tried upgrading packages langchain, langchain_community, pydantic, langsmith etc. But no luck.

My current installed versions shows as under:

Python 3.12.4

langchain: 0.2.3
langchain_community: 0.2.4
langsmith: 0.1.75
pydantic: 2.7.3
typing_extensions: 4.11.0

Pip check also not showing any conflict.

Here is complete trace of error. Any help would be really appreciated.

Solution

  • I am having the same issue. The stack is different, but the error comes from the same line pydantic\v1\typing.py", line 66

    This is referring to the python typing module (v3.12.4) that has an additional mandatory parameter 'recursive_guard'. There are other areas of the code in pydantic where this has been fixed (recursive_gurard=set()).

    Check this out --> https://github.com/pydantic/pydantic-core/issues/1292

    Within this thread, they mention that using python v3.12.3 could temporarily solve the issue in 1292, probably because this additional attribute in v3.12.4 (I am guessing here). This is not an option for me as my google alpha functions local deploy is not recognizing the --runtime=python311 and always take the latest runtime (v3.12.4).

    I hope that they fix this too
