Python was versioned and tagged separately from the Rust, Java, and
Node.js SDKs, and had drifted three minor versions ahead (0.36 vs 0.33).
Users had no way to tell which Python version corresponded to which Rust
or Node release, and the gap had no meaning behind it.
This unifies the two tracks so there is one version and one tag for all
four SDKs.
## Version
The shared version is set to `0.37.0-beta.0`. Python continues its own
sequence (highest published: 0.36 → 0.37) while Rust, Java, and Node.js
jump 0.33 → 0.37 to meet it. Picking Python's next minor means Python
users see no discontinuity at all, and only the other SDKs skip forward.
Note that `main` trails the `release/v0.32` branch on both lines (main
is at 0.32.0-beta.3 / 0.35.0-beta.3; the release branch carries
0.33.0-beta.0 / 0.36.0-beta.0), so 0.37 is chosen to clear the highest
tag on either branch. Every index stays monotonic:
| index | publishes | last published | next |
|---|---|---|---|
| PyPI | stable only | 0.34.0 | 0.37.0 |
| Fury | previews | 0.36.0b0 | 0.37.0-beta.1 |
| npm | both | 0.33.0-beta.0 | 0.37.0-beta.1 |
| crates.io | stable only | 0.31.0 | 0.37.0 |
| Maven | both | 0.33.0-beta.0 | 0.37.0-beta.1 |
A one-time jump for three SDKs, versus explaining the offset
indefinitely.
## Mechanism
* `python/.bumpversion.toml` is removed. `python/Cargo.toml` — the
source of the Python package version, since `pyproject.toml` declares
`dynamic = ["version"]` — becomes a tracked file of the root config. Its
`cargo update -p lancedb-python` pre-commit hook is dropped as
redundant: `ci/update_lockfiles.sh` already refreshes every workspace
member version in `Cargo.lock`.
* `pypi-publish.yml` triggers on `v*` instead of `python-v*`, so one tag
releases all four packages. `ci/bump_version.sh` and
`make-release-commit.yml` lose their now-dead tag-prefix and
per-language plumbing, including the `python` / `other` dispatch inputs.
* The two byte-identical GH release jobs in `npm-publish.yml` and
`pypi-publish.yml` are replaced by a single `gh-release.yml`. One
release per tag, named `LanceDB vX.Y.Z`, instead of separate "Python
LanceDB" and "Node/Rust LanceDB" releases for the same commit.
The trade-off: there is no longer a way to ship a Python-only patch
without also releasing crates.io, Maven, and npm. That is the cost of
making drift structurally impossible.
## Beta releases marked "Latest" (#3666)
Both GH release jobs used:
```yaml
prerelease: ${{ contains('beta', github.ref) }}
```
The arguments are reversed. `contains(search, item)` asks whether
*`search`* contains *`item`*, so this evaluated "does the literal string
`'beta'` contain `refs/tags/python-v0.35.0-beta.2`?" — always `false`.
Every beta was published as a full release, and GitHub awards "Latest"
to the newest non-prerelease.
The new workflow derives the flag from the parsed version rather than
the raw ref, and sets `make_latest` explicitly:
```yaml
prerelease: ${{ steps.extract_version.outputs.prerelease }}
make_latest: ${{ steps.extract_version.outputs.prerelease == 'false' }}
```
npm was never affected (`--tag preview` uses correct bash), and PyPI
already excludes pre-releases from resolution.
This only fixes releases published from here on. Already-published betas
need a one-time backfill:
```shell
gh api --paginate /repos/lancedb/lancedb/releases \
--jq '.[] | select(.prerelease == false) | select(.tag_name | test("beta")) | .id' \
| xargs -I{} gh api -X PATCH /repos/lancedb/lancedb/releases/{} -F prerelease=true
```
## Verification
Ran `ci/bump_version.sh` end-to-end against this branch with the release
tooling installed:
* `preview` → tags `v0.37.0-beta.1` (previous tag `v0.33.0-beta.0`
detected, `pre_n` bump)
* `stable` → tags `v0.37.0`
* Both paths update `.bumpversion.toml`, `rust/lancedb/Cargo.toml`,
`nodejs/Cargo.toml`, `python/Cargo.toml`, `nodejs/package.json`, the 7
`nodejs/npm/*/package.json` files, both Java poms, and
`docs/src/java/java.md` together
* `check_breaking_changes.py` resolves the last stable as `v0.31.0`, so
the minor-version gate passes
All five touched workflows parse as valid YAML and the pre-commit hooks
pass.
## Notes for review
* This targets `main` only, so it takes effect at the next
release-branch cut. The in-flight `release/v0.32` branch still carries
`v0.33.0-beta.0` / `python-v0.36.0-beta.0`; if we want the imminent
stable to be 0.37.0, this needs to be applied there too.
* Historical `python-v*` tags are left alone. The changelog builder
scans `^v`, which does not match them, so the first unified release's
notes will compute `fromTag` from the Rust/Node line only — a one-time
gap in the Python-side changelog.
* Pre-existing and not addressed here: `ci/update_lockfiles.sh --amend`
amends the commit that `bump-my-version` has already tagged, so the
lockfile update lands outside the tag on stable releases.
Fixes#3666
Bridges Lance's internal `metrics`-crate instrumentation (object store
request counts, bytes, latency, errors, and throttles) into
OpenTelemetry, in both the Python and Node bindings, with a shared
adapter in the Rust core. This is the LanceDB counterpart to
lance-format/lance#7537.
## Rust core (`rust/lancedb`)
Two new, **off-by-default** features:
- `metrics` — re-exports the [`metrics`](https://docs.rs/metrics) crate
as `lancedb::metrics` and turns on Lance's object-store instrumentation.
Install any `metrics`-compatible recorder to collect them.
- `metrics-otel` — adds `lancedb::metrics_otel`, a pull-based adapter
that installs a process-global recorder aggregating into lock-free
cumulative storage and exposes a snapshot/catalog API
(`register_metrics_recorder`, `metrics_catalog`, `snapshot_metrics`,
`MetricPoint`/`MetricValue`/`MetricKind`/`MetricDescription`). Both
bindings build on this.
## Python
`lancedb.otel.instrument_lancedb_metrics()` registers each metric as an
OpenTelemetry observable instrument on the given (or global)
`MeterProvider`. Available via the `otel` extra (`pip install
lancedb[otel]`), which pulls in only `opentelemetry-api` — the
application supplies and configures the SDK.
## Node
`instrumentLanceDbMetrics()` provides the equivalent wiring against
`@opentelemetry/api`. This is the only public entry point; the
underlying recorder/catalog/snapshot functions stay internal.
Because OpenTelemetry has no asynchronous histogram instrument,
histograms are exported Prometheus-style as `<name>_bucket` (with an
`le` attribute), `<name>_count`, and `<name>_sum`. Only `_sum` carries
the histogram's unit; `_bucket` and `_count` observe cumulative counts
and are unitless. The adapter is enabled by default in the Python and
Node builds, and off by default in the Rust crate.
## Notes
- Requires Lance ≥ `v9.0.0-beta.19`, which ships the object-store
metrics APIs (upstream lance-format/lance#7537, now merged). `main` is
already on beta.19, so this is a single feature commit with no
dependency bump.
- Tests: 8 Rust unit tests, 3 Python tests, 2 Node tests, all covering
the end-to-end object-store-metrics → OpenTelemetry path.

## Summary
Closes#3525
This PR wires up two new optional object-store backends at the LanceDB
layer, exposing capabilities that already exist upstream in `lance` /
`lance-io`:
| Backend | Cargo feature | Default in Rust crate | Default in Python
wheel | Default in Node binding |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| **Tencent COS** | `cos` | ❌ off | ✅ on | ❌ off |
| **GooseFS** | `goosefs` | ❌ off | ✅ on | ✅ on |
Both backends are additive and do not affect existing users who don't
opt in.
## Motivation
- **Tencent COS** is the dominant object storage in the China region.
Tencent Cloud users currently need an S3-compatible proxy or a private
fork to use LanceDB against COS buckets.
- **GooseFS** is Tencent Cloud's distributed cache acceleration layer
that sits in front of COS/S3, a common pattern for vector search / AI
training where the same hot dataset is read repeatedly.
- This brings COS / GooseFS to feature parity with the existing
first-class backends (`aws`, `gcs`, `azure`, `oss`, `huggingface`).
See the linked issue #3525 for the full discussion.
## Changes
### `rust/lancedb/Cargo.toml`
Add two new optional features that pull through the corresponding
upstream feature flags:
```toml
cos = ["lance/tencent", "lance-io/tencent"]
goosefs = [
"lance/goosefs",
"lance-io/goosefs",
"lance-namespace-impls/dir-goosefs",
]
```
### `python/Cargo.toml`
Enable both `cos` and `goosefs` by default for the Python wheels, so
`pip install lancedb` works against COS / GooseFS out of the box
(consistent with how `aws` / `gcs` / `azure` / `oss` are bundled today):
```diff
-default = ["remote", "lancedb/aws", "lancedb/gcs", "lancedb/azure", "lancedb/dynamodb", "lancedb/oss", "lancedb/huggingface"]
+default = ["remote", "lancedb/aws", "lancedb/gcs", "lancedb/azure", "lancedb/dynamodb", "lancedb/oss", "lancedb/huggingface", "lancedb/cos", "lancedb/goosefs"]
```
### `nodejs/Cargo.toml`
Enable `goosefs` by default for the Node binding (COS kept opt-in to
limit the default native binary size; can be revisited based on demand):
```diff
-default = ["remote", "lancedb/aws", "lancedb/gcs", "lancedb/azure", "lancedb/dynamodb", "lancedb/oss", "lancedb/huggingface"]
+default = ["remote", "lancedb/aws", "lancedb/gcs", "lancedb/azure", "lancedb/dynamodb", "lancedb/oss", "lancedb/huggingface", "lancedb/goosefs"]
```
### `Cargo.lock`
Regenerated to reflect the transitive dependencies brought in by the new
upstream features. No manual edits.
## Example Usage
### Rust
```toml
# Cargo.toml
lancedb = { version = "0.30", features = ["cos", "goosefs"] }
```
```rust
// Tencent COS
let db = lancedb::connect("cos://my-bucket/my-db").execute().await?;
// GooseFS
let db = lancedb::connect("goosefs://my-namespace/my-db").execute().await?;
```
### Python
```python
import lancedb
db = lancedb.connect(
"cos://my-bucket/my-db",
storage_options={
"secret_id": "...",
"secret_key": "...",
"region": "ap-guangzhou",
},
)
```
## Backwards Compatibility
- All new features are **opt-in** at the Rust crate level (`default =
[]` for `lancedb` itself is unchanged).
- The Python wheel gains both backends by default, increasing wheel size
slightly but matching the existing pattern of bundling all major cloud
backends.
- Node binding only adds `goosefs` to defaults; existing users see no
behavior change.
## Testing
- `cargo check --all-features` ✅
- `cargo check -p lancedb --features cos` ✅
- `cargo check -p lancedb --features goosefs` ✅
- End-to-end COS / GooseFS smoke tests require Tencent Cloud credentials
and are intentionally not added to CI in this PR (same approach used for
`s3-test`). Happy to add a gated test feature in a follow-up if
reviewers prefer.
## Checklist
- [x] Added `cos` and `goosefs` features to `rust/lancedb/Cargo.toml`
- [x] Updated `python/Cargo.toml` default features
- [x] Updated `nodejs/Cargo.toml` default features
- [x] Regenerated `Cargo.lock`
- [x] Verified build with `--all-features`
- [ ] Documentation update (can be done in a follow-up PR once API
stabilizes)

## Summary
Surfaces the rich per-index metadata added in #3497 to the Python and
Node.js language bindings. Closes#3495.
New optional fields exposed on `IndexConfig` in both bindings:
- `index_uuid` / `indexUuid` — UUID of the first index segment
- `type_url` / `typeUrl` — protobuf type URL for the index
- `created_at` / `createdAt` — creation timestamp (milliseconds since
Unix epoch)
- `num_indexed_rows` / `numIndexedRows` — rows covered by the index
- `num_unindexed_rows` / `numUnindexedRows` — rows not yet indexed
- `size_bytes` / `sizeBytes` — total index file size in bytes
- `num_segments` / `numSegments` — number of index segments
- `index_version` / `indexVersion` — on-disk format version
- `index_details` / `indexDetails` — type-specific JSON details string
All fields are `None`/`undefined` for remote tables (which don't yet
surface this metadata through the server response).
## Changes
- `python/src/index.rs`: extend `IndexConfig` pyclass; update `From`
impl; update `__getitem__`
- `python/python/lancedb/_lancedb.pyi`: add type hints for new fields
- `python/python/tests/test_table.py`: new `test_index_config_fields`
test
- `nodejs/src/table.rs`: extend `IndexConfig` napi struct; update `From`
impl
- `nodejs/__test__/table.test.ts`: new test; update existing `toEqual`
assertions to `expect.objectContaining` to accommodate new fields
## Test plan
- [x] Python: `uv run --extra tests pytest
python/tests/test_table.py::test_index_config_fields`
- [x] Node.js: `pnpm test __test__/table.test.ts`

Closes#3261.
## Summary
Adds `bytes` to the accepted types of `lancedb.expr.lit()` so that
binary scalars can be used in filter / projection expressions. The
previous attempt in #3235 had to be reverted because DataFusion's SQL
unparser does not support `Binary` / `LargeBinary` scalars, so any
expression containing such a literal would fail in both `to_sql()` and
`__repr__`.
## How
`expr_to_sql_string` now has two paths:
- **Fast path** (no binary literals): delegate to DataFusion's unparser
unchanged.
- **Slow path**: rewrite each `Binary(Some(bytes))` literal in the tree
to a unique string-literal placeholder, run the unparser, then
substitute `'<placeholder>'` with `X'<HEX>'` in the resulting SQL.
`Binary(None)` / `LargeBinary(None)` are rewritten to
`ScalarValue::Null` so the unparser emits plain `NULL`.
This keeps DataFusion as the single source of truth for operator and
function serialization, so binary literals work in every expression node
type the unparser already supports — including nested cases like
`contains(col("data"), lit(b"\xff"))`, `NOT (col == lit(b"..."))`, and
`col.cast(...) == lit(b"...")`.
## Changes
- `rust/lancedb/src/expr/sql.rs`: placeholder-substitution
implementation.
- `rust/lancedb/src/expr.rs`: 4 new unit tests covering binary literals
in equality, compound predicates, scalar function calls, negation, and
`NULL` binary literals.
- `python/src/expr.rs`: `expr_lit` accepts `PyBytes` and produces
`ScalarValue::Binary`.
- `python/Cargo.toml` + `Cargo.lock`: pull in `datafusion-common` for
`ScalarValue`.
- `python/python/lancedb/expr.py`: extend `ExprLike` and `lit()` type
annotations / docstrings with `bytes`.
- `python/python/lancedb/_lancedb.pyi`: update `expr_lit` stub.
- `python/tests/test_expr.py`: unit tests for `to_sql` / `repr` of
binary literals and an integration test against a real `pa.binary()`
column for equality / inequality / compound filters.
## Example
```python
from lancedb.expr import col, lit, func
# Equality against a binary column
col("payload") == lit(b"\xca\xfe")
# Expr((payload = X'CAFE'))
# Nested inside a function call (previously failed)
func("contains", col("data"), lit(b"\xff"))
# Expr(contains(data, X'FF'))
# repr() no longer crashes
repr(lit(b"\xde\xad\xbe\xef"))
# "Expr(X'DEADBEEF')"
```
## Verification
- [x] `cargo test -p lancedb --lib expr::` — 12/12 pass (was 9; +3 new
tests)
- [x] `cargo check --features remote --tests --examples` — clean
- [x] `cargo clippy --features remote --tests --examples` — no warnings
- [x] `cargo fmt --all -- --check` — clean
- [x] `pytest python/tests/test_expr.py` — 76/76 pass (was 74; +2 new
tests)
- [x] `ruff check python` / `ruff format --check python` — clean
## Follow-ups (not in this PR)
Issue #3261 also raises the possibility of a *truncated* `__repr__` for
very large binary literals. This PR keeps `__repr__` exact (it forwards
to `to_sql()`), since truncating display output would diverge from the
SQL that actually gets executed. A display-only truncation could be
added in a follow-up by giving `__repr__` its own renderer.

## Summary
PyTorch's `DataLoader` uses fork-based multiprocessing by default on
Linux, but threads do not survive `fork()`. LanceDB's Python bindings
drive async work through two threaded layers, both of which become inert
in a forked child:
- `BackgroundEventLoop` runs an asyncio loop on a Python
`threading.Thread`.
- `pyo3-async-runtimes::tokio` holds a global multi-threaded tokio
runtime whose worker threads also die on fork — and its runtime lives in
a `OnceLock` that cannot be replaced after first use.
As a result, any `Permutation` (or other async API) used inside a
fork-based `DataLoader` worker hangs indefinitely. This PR makes both
layers fork-safe so `Permutation` works as a `torch.utils.data.Dataset`
with `num_workers > 0`.
## Approach
### Rust — new `python/src/runtime.rs`
Mirrors the pattern used in [Lance's Python
bindings](https://github.com/lance-format/lance/blob/456198cd6f42be07f99617a6d7e39d6209cdf3cc/python/src/lib.rs#L139),
adapted for the async-bridge use case.
- `LanceRuntime` implements `pyo3_async_runtimes::generic::Runtime +
ContextExt`, backed by an `AtomicPtr<tokio::runtime::Runtime>` we own
(sidestepping `pyo3-async-runtimes`'s frozen `OnceLock` global).
- A `pthread_atfork(after_in_child)` handler nulls the pointer; the next
`spawn` rebuilds the runtime in the child. The previous runtime is
intentionally **leaked** — calling `Drop` would try to join now-dead
worker threads and hang.
- `runtime::future_into_py` is a drop-in for
`pyo3_async_runtimes::tokio::future_into_py`. All ~80 call sites in
`arrow.rs` / `connection.rs` / `permutation.rs` / `query.rs` /
`table.rs` are updated to route through it.
- `python/Cargo.toml` adds `libc = "0.2"` and the tokio
`rt-multi-thread` feature.
### Python — `lancedb/background_loop.py`
- Refactors `BackgroundEventLoop.__init__` to a reusable `_start()`
method.
- An `os.register_at_fork(after_in_child=…)` hook calls `LOOP._start()`
to give the singleton a fresh asyncio loop and thread **in place**. This
matters because the rest of the codebase imports `LOOP` via `from
.background_loop import LOOP` — rebinding the module attribute would
leave those references holding the dead loop.
### Python — `lancedb/__init__.py`
Removes the `__warn_on_fork` pre-fork warning (and the now-unused
`import warnings`). Fork is supported.
## Test plan
- [x] New `test_permutation_dataloader_fork_workers` in
`python/tests/test_torch.py`: runs a `Permutation` through
`torch.utils.data.DataLoader(num_workers=2,
multiprocessing_context="fork")` inside a spawn-isolated child with a
30s hang detector. **Pre-fix**: timed out at 36s. **Post-fix**: passes
in ~3.6s.
- [x] New `test_remote_connection_after_fork` in
`python/tests/test_remote_db.py`: forks a child that creates a fresh
`lancedb.connect(...)` against a mock HTTP server and calls
`table_names()`; passes in <1s, validates the runtime reset is
sufficient for fresh remote clients.
- [x] All 62 tests in `test_torch.py` + `test_permutation.py` pass.
- [x] All 35 tests in `test_remote_db.py` pass.
- [x] `test_table.py` (87) + `test_db.py` + `test_query.py` (157, minus
one unrelated `sentence_transformers` import skip) — 244 passing.
- [x] `cargo clippy -p lancedb-python --tests` clean.
- [x] `cargo fmt`, `ruff check`, `ruff format` all clean.
## Known limitation (follow-up)
This PR makes a **freshly-built** `lancedb.connect(...)` work in a
forked child. An **inherited** `Connection` from the parent still
carries an inherited `reqwest::Client` whose hyper connection pool
references socket FDs and TCP/TLS state shared with the parent — using
it from the child after fork is unsafe (especially with HTTP/1.1
keep-alive). The recommended pattern for fork-based `DataLoader` workers
that hit a remote DB is to construct a new connection inside the worker.
Auto-clearing inherited HTTP client pools on fork would require tracking
live `Connection` instances in `lancedb` core and is left for a
follow-up PR.

Adds a `deny.toml` at the workspace root and a `deny` CI job that runs
`cargo deny check` on every PR. Catches yanked crates, license drift,
banned or wildcard dependencies, unapproved sources, and new RUSTSEC
advisories.
As part of wiring this up:
- Updated `aws-lc-rs` 1.13.0 → 1.16.3 / `aws-lc-sys` 0.28.0 → 0.40.0 to
clear four 2026 AWS-LC advisories (timing side-channel, PKCS7 bypass,
CRL scope). Removed the `=0.28.0` workaround pin; the original build
failure no longer reproduces.
- Updated `bytes`, `zlib-rs`, `rand`, `rustls-webpki`, `lz4_flex` to
clear their current advisories.
- Marked `lancedb-nodejs` and `lancedb-python` as `publish = false` and
pinned `lzma-sys` from `*` to `0.1` so `bans.wildcards = "deny"` can
be enforced.
10 remaining advisories have no safe upgrade available (transitive via
opendal, lance, datafusion, async-openai, aws-sdk on the legacy rustls
0.21 chain). Each is ignored in `deny.toml` with a per-entry rationale
and a link to the RUSTSEC advisory. New advisories still fail CI.

## Summary
Adds progress reporting for `table.add()` so users can track large write
operations. The progress callback is available in Rust, Python (sync and
async), and through the PyO3 bindings.
### Usage
Pass `progress=True` to get an automatic tqdm bar:
```python
table.add(data, progress=True)
# 100%|██████████| 1000000/1000000 [00:12<00:00, 82345 rows/s, 45.2 MB/s | 4/4 workers]
```
Or pass a tqdm bar for more control:
```python
from tqdm import tqdm
with tqdm(unit=" rows") as pbar:
table.add(data, progress=pbar)
```
Or use a callback for custom progress handling:
```python
def on_progress(p):
print(f"{p['output_rows']}/{p['total_rows']} rows, "
f"{p['active_tasks']}/{p['total_tasks']} workers, "
f"done={p['done']}")
table.add(data, progress=on_progress)
```
In Rust:
```rust
table.add(data)
.progress(|p| println!("{}/{:?} rows", p.output_rows(), p.total_rows()))
.execute()
.await?;
```
### Details
- `WriteProgress` struct in Rust with getters for `elapsed`,
`output_rows`, `output_bytes`, `total_rows`, `active_tasks`,
`total_tasks`, and `done`. Fields are private behind getters so new
fields can be added without breaking changes.
- `WriteProgressTracker` tracks progress across parallel write tasks
using a mutex for row/byte counts and atomics for active task counts.
- Active task tracking uses an RAII guard pattern (`ActiveTaskGuard`)
that increments on creation and decrements on drop.
- For remote writes, `output_bytes` reflects IPC wire bytes rather than
in-memory Arrow size. For local writes it uses in-memory Arrow size as a
proxy (see TODO below).
- tqdm postfix displays throughput (MB/s) and worker utilization
(active/total).
- The `done` callback always fires, even on error (via `FinishOnDrop`),
so progress bars are always finalized.
### TODO
- Track actual bytes written to disk for local tables. This requires
Lance to expose a progress callback from its write path. See
lance-format/lance#6247.

Without this fix, if user directly use the native table to do operations
like `add_columns`, even if it is configured to use namespace db
connection, it is not really propagated through.
The fix is to bring lancedb's python binding up to date and do a similar
