Example selectors

If you have a large number of examples, you may need to select which ones to include in the prompt. The Example Selector is the class responsible for doing so.

The base interface is defined as below:

class BaseExampleSelector(ABC):
"""Interface for selecting examples to include in prompts."""

@abstractmethod
def select_examples(self, input_variables: Dict[str, str]) -> List[dict]:
"""Select which examples to use based on the inputs."""

The only method it needs to define is a select_examples method. This takes in the input variables and then returns a list of examples. It is up to each specific implementation as to how those examples are selected.
