Tool Factory

The ToolFactory class allows you to create tools from different sources, such as Langchain tools or OpenAPI schemas. However, implementing tools from scratch using BaseTool provides greater control and is generally recommended.

Import from Langchain (Not Recommended)

Convert from OpenAPI Schemas

import requests
from agency_swarm.tools import ToolFactory

# Using a local OpenAPI schema file
with open("schemas/your_schema.json") as f:
    tools = ToolFactory.from_openapi_schema(f.read())

# Using an OpenAPI schema from a URL
tools = ToolFactory.from_openapi_schema(
    requests.get("https://api.example.com/openapi.json").json()
)

Conclusion

By leveraging the ToolFactory, you can streamline the process of integrating external tools into your agents. This feature allows for flexibility and rapid development, although creating tools directly with BaseTool is often preferable for more control and customization.

Remember to:

Consider Direct Implementation: Use BaseTool for greater control.
Use ToolFactory for Quick Integration: Ideal for rapid prototyping and integration.
