can write evaluators like this:

from langsmith import evaluate

def simp(inputs: dict, outputs: dict, reference_outputs: dict) -> dict:
    return {"results": [
        {"score": inputs == outputs, "key": 'identity'}, 
        {"score": outputs == reference_outputs, "key": "correct"}
    ]}

evaluate(
    (lambda x: x),
    data="Sample Dataset 3",
    evaluators=[simp],
)

example experiment: left-tray-86 https://dev.smith.langchain.com/public/e7782ea0-3de5-4352-8cd4-7b2cdbb03e4c/d

might be nice to add like a couple unit tests on this to make it obvious it's working

I think this makes sense, but would add some extra tests in to confirm it works properly

Do we want it to be like pytest where it's all by name?
run, example, inputs, predictions, reference

yea i like that. for backwards compat can't enforce run/example but can enforce the others

# for backwards compatibility, if args are untyped we assume they correspond to
# Run and Example:
if not (type_hints := get_type_hints(func)):

shouldn't we check the number of args here? traditional evaluators have run and example whereas the simple evaluators take 3 args

seems like this check on arg length should be moved up

f"argument. Supported positional arguments are {supported_args}. Please "

ooc, why do we require at least one positional one?

we only pass in the supported args as positional args, so equivalent to enforcing that there's at least one supported arg

"outputs": run.outputs or {},
"reference_outputs": example.outputs or {},
}
args = (arg_map[arg] for arg in positional_no_default)

If I put a default in an arg this silently never provides the matching value. Would either want to validate ahead of time that no default is provided (preferred) or pass it in anyway (think not preferred)

think im just going to remove the check for whether it has defaults or not, doesn't seem necessary

Could we update the docstring for evaluate() and aevaluate() to have examples or link to a docs page that shows the valid arguments?
