+### How to choose `m` and `ef_construction` for `IVF_HNSW_*` index?
+
+`m` determines the number of connections a new node establishes with its closest neighbors upon entering the graph. Typically, `m` falls within the range of 5 to 48. Lower `m` values are suitable for low-dimensional data or scenarios where recall is less critical. Conversely, higher `m` values are beneficial for high-dimensional data or when high recall is required. In essence, a larger `m` results in a denser graph with increased connectivity, but at the expense of higher memory consumption.
+
+`ef_construction` balances build speed and accuracy. Higher values increase accuracy but slow down the build process. A typical range is 150 to 300. For good search results, a minimum value of 100 is recommended. In most cases, setting this value above 500 offers no additional benefit. Ensure that `ef_construction` is always set to a value equal to or greater than `ef` in the search phase

+* `m`: The number of neighbors to select for each vector in the HNSW graph.

+# VoyageAI Embeddings
+
+Voyage AI provides cutting-edge embedding and rerankers.
+
+
+Using voyageai API requires voyageai package, which can be installed using `pip install voyageai`. Voyage AI embeddings are used to generate embeddings for text data. The embeddings can be used for various tasks like semantic search, clustering, and classification.
+You also need to set the `VOYAGE_API_KEY` environment variable to use the VoyageAI API.
+
+Supported models are:
+
+- voyage-3
+- voyage-3-lite
+- voyage-finance-2
+- voyage-multilingual-2
+- voyage-law-2
+- voyage-code-2
+
+
+Supported parameters (to be passed in `create` method) are:
+
+| Parameter | Type | Default Value | Description |
+|---|---|--------|---------|
+| `name` | `str` | `None` | The model ID of the model to use. Supported base models for Text Embeddings: voyage-3, voyage-3-lite, voyage-finance-2, voyage-multilingual-2, voyage-law-2, voyage-code-2 |
+| `input_type` | `str` | `None` | Type of the input text. Default to None. Other options: query, document. |
+| `truncation` | `bool` | `True` | Whether to truncate the input texts to fit within the context length. |
+
+
+Usage Example:
+    
+```python
+    import lancedb
+    from lancedb.pydantic import LanceModel, Vector
+    from lancedb.embeddings import EmbeddingFunctionRegistry
+
+    voyageai = EmbeddingFunctionRegistry
+        .get_instance()
+        .get("voyageai")
+        .create(name="voyage-3")
+
+    class TextModel(LanceModel):
+        text: str = voyageai.SourceField()
+        vector: Vector(voyageai.ndims()) =  voyageai.VectorField()
+
+    data = [ { "text": "hello world" },
+            { "text": "goodbye world" }]
+
+    db = lancedb.connect("~/.lancedb")

 ## Tokenization
-By default the text is tokenized by splitting on punctuation and whitespaces and then removing tokens that are longer than 40 chars.

+Stemming is useful for improving search results by reducing words to their root form, e.g. "running" to "run". LanceDB supports stemming for multiple languages, you can specify the tokenizer name to enable stemming by the pattern `tokenizer_name="{language_code}_stem"`, e.g. `en_stem` for English.

+For example, to enable stemming for English:

+```
 
 the following [languages](https://docs.rs/tantivy/latest/tantivy/tokenizer/enum.Language.html) are currently supported.
 
-## Index multiple columns
+The tokenizer is customizable, you can specify how the tokenizer splits the text, and how it filters out words, etc.
 
-If you have multiple string columns to index, there's no need to combine them manually -- simply pass them all as a list to `create_fts_index`:

-
-Note that the search API call does not change - you can search over all indexed columns at once.
+For example, for language with accents, you can specify the tokenizer to use `ascii_folding` to remove accents, e.g. 'é' to 'e':

-
-(table.search("terms", ordering_field_name="sort_by_field")
- .limit(20)
- .to_list())
-```
-
-!!! note
-    If you wish to specify an ordering field at query time, you must also
-    have specified it during indexing time. Otherwise at query time, an
-    error will be raised that looks like `ValueError: The field does not exist: xxx`
-
-!!! note
-    The fields to sort on must be of typed unsigned integer, or else you will see
-    an error during indexing that looks like
-    `TypeError: argument 'value': 'float' object cannot be interpreted as an integer`.
-
-!!! note
-    You can specify multiple fields for ordering at indexing time.
-    But at query time only one ordering field is supported.
-
-
 ## Phrase queries vs. terms queries
 
 !!! warning "Warn"
     Lance-based FTS doesn't support queries using boolean operators `OR`, `AND`.
 
 For full-text search you can specify either a **phrase** query like `"the old man and the sea"`,
-or a **terms** search query like `"(Old AND Man) AND Sea"`. For more details on the terms
+or a **terms** search query like `old man sea`. For more details on the terms
 query syntax, see Tantivy's [query parser rules](https://docs.rs/tantivy/latest/tantivy/query/struct.QueryParser.html).
 
-!!! tip "Note"
-    The query parser will raise an exception on queries that are ambiguous. For example, in the query `they could have been dogs OR cats`, `OR` is capitalized so it's considered a keyword query operator. But it's ambiguous how the left part should be treated. So if you submit this search query as is, you'll get `Syntax Error: they could have been dogs OR cats`.
-
-    ```py
-    # This raises a syntax error
-    table.search("they could have been dogs OR cats")
-    ```
-
-    On the other hand, lowercasing `OR` to `or` will work, because there are no capitalized logical operators and
-    the query is treated as a phrase query.
-
-    ```py
-    # This works!
-    table.search("they could have been dogs or cats")
-    ```
-
-It can be cumbersome to have to remember what will cause a syntax error depending on the type of
-query you want to perform. To make this simpler, when you want to perform a phrase query, you can
-enforce it in one of two ways:
-
-1. Place the double-quoted query inside single quotes. For example, `table.search('"they could have been dogs OR cats"')` is treated as
-a phrase query.
-1. Explicitly declare the `phrase_query()` method. This is useful when you have a phrase query that
-itself contains double quotes. For example, `table.search('the cats OR dogs were not really "pets" at all').phrase_query()`
-is treated as a phrase query.
-
-In general, a query that's declared as a phrase query will be wrapped in double quotes during parsing, with nested
-double quotes replaced by single quotes.
-
-
-## Configurations (Only for Tantivy-based FTS)
-
-By default, LanceDB configures a 1GB heap size limit for creating the index. You can
-reduce this if running on a smaller node, or increase this for faster performance while
-indexing a larger corpus.
-
+To search for a phrase, the index must be created with `with_position=True`:
 ```python
-# configure a 512MB heap size
-heap = 1024 * 1024 * 512
-table.create_fts_index(["text1", "text2"], writer_heap_size=heap, replace=True)
+table.create_fts_index("text", use_tantivy=False, with_position=True)
 ```
+This will allow you to search for phrases, but it will also significantly increase the index size and indexing time.
 
-## Current limitations
 
-For that Tantivy-based FTS:
+## Incremental indexing
 
-1. Currently we do not yet support incremental writes.
-   If you add data after FTS index creation, it won't be reflected
-   in search results until you do a full reindex.
+LanceDB supports incremental indexing, which means you can add new records to the table without reindexing the entire table.
 
-2. We currently only support local filesystem paths for the FTS index.
-   This is a tantivy limitation. We've implemented an object store plugin
-   but there's no way in tantivy-py to specify to use it.
+This can make the query more efficient, especially when the table is large and the new records are relatively small.
+
+=== "Python"
+
+    ```python
+    table.add([{"vector": [3.1, 4.1], "text": "Frodo was a happy puppy"}])
+    table.optimize()
+    ```
+
+=== "TypeScript"
+
+    ```typescript
+    await tbl.add([{ vector: [3.1, 4.1], text: "Frodo was a happy puppy" }]);

+    tbl.optimize(OptimizeAction::All).execute().await?;
+    ```
+!!! note
+
+    New data added after creating the FTS index will appear in search results while incremental index is still progress, but with increased latency due to a flat search on the unindexed portion. LanceDB Cloud automates this merging process, minimizing the impact on search speed.

+
+LanceDB also provides support for full-text search via [Tantivy](https://github.com/quickwit-oss/tantivy), allowing you to incorporate keyword-based search (based on BM25) in your retrieval solutions.
+
+The tantivy-based FTS is only available in Python and does not support building indexes on object storage or incremental indexing. If you need these features, try native FTS [native FTS](fts.md).
+

+```
+
+## Example
+
+Consider that we have a LanceDB table named `my_table`, whose string column `content` we want to index and query via keyword search, the FTS index must be created before you can search via keywords.
+
+```python
+import lancedb
+
+uri = "data/sample-lancedb"
+db = lancedb.connect(uri)
+
+table = db.create_table(
+    "my_table",
+    data=[
+        {"id": 1, "vector": [3.1, 4.1], "title": "happy puppy", "content": "Frodo was a happy puppy", "meta": "foo"},
+        {"id": 2, "vector": [5.9, 26.5], "title": "playing kittens", "content": "There are several kittens playing around the puppy", "meta": "bar"},
+    ],
+)
+
+# passing `use_tantivy=False` to use lance FTS index
+# `use_tantivy=True` by default
+table.create_fts_index("content", use_tantivy=True)

+1. New data added after creating the FTS index will appear in search results, but with increased latency due to a flat search on the unindexed portion. Re-indexing with `create_fts_index` will reduce latency. LanceDB Cloud automates this merging process, minimizing the impact on search speed. 
+
+2. We currently only support local filesystem paths for the FTS index.

-# Building Scalar Index
+# Building a Scalar Index
 
-Similar to many SQL databases, LanceDB supports several types of Scalar indices to accelerate search
+Scalar indices organize data by scalar attributes (e.g. numbers, categorical values), enabling fast filtering of vector data. In vector databases, scalar indices accelerate the retrieval of scalar data associated with vectors, thus enhancing the query performance when searching for vectors that meet certain scalar criteria. 
+
+Similar to many SQL databases, LanceDB supports several types of scalar indices to accelerate search
 over scalar columns.
 
-- `BTREE`: The most common type is BTREE. This index is inspired by the btree data structure
-  although only the first few layers of the btree are cached in memory.
-  It will perform well on columns with a large number of unique values and few rows per value.
-- `BITMAP`: this index stores a bitmap for each unique value in the column.
-  This index is useful for columns with a finite number of unique values and many rows per value.
-  For example, columns that represent "categories", "labels", or "tags"
-- `LABEL_LIST`: a special index that is used to index list columns whose values have a finite set of possibilities.
+- `BTREE`: The most common type is BTREE. The index stores a copy of the
+  column in sorted order. This sorted copy allows a binary search to be used to
+  satisfy queries.
+- `BITMAP`: this index stores a bitmap for each unique value in the column. It 
+  uses a series of bits to indicate whether a value is present in a row of a table
+- `LABEL_LIST`: a special index that can be used on `List<T>` columns to
+  support queries with `array_contains_all` and `array_contains_any`
+  using an underlying bitmap index.
   For example, a column that contains lists of tags (e.g. `["tag1", "tag2", "tag3"]`) can be indexed with a `LABEL_LIST` index.
 
+!!! tips "How to choose the right scalar index type"
+
+    `BTREE`: This index is good for scalar columns with mostly distinct values and does best when the query is highly selective.
+    
+    `BITMAP`: This index works best for low-cardinality numeric or string columns, where the number of unique values is small (i.e., less than a few thousands).
+    
+    `LABEL_LIST`: This index should be used for columns containing list-type data.

+
+You can add new columns to the table with the `add_columns` method. New columns
+are filled with values based on a SQL expression. For example, you can add a new
+column `y` to the table and fill it with the value of `x + 1`.

+In LanceDB Python, you can use the `on_bad_vectors` parameter to choose how

+2. They contain NaN values
+3. They are null but are on a non-nullable field
+
+By default, LanceDB will raise an error if it encounters a bad vector. You can
+also choose one of the following options:
+
+* `drop`: Ignore rows with bad vectors
+* `fill`: Replace bad values (NaNs) or missing values (too few dimensions) with
+    the fill value specified in the `fill_value` parameter. An input like
+    `[1.0, NaN, 3.0]` will be replaced with `[1.0, 0.0, 3.0]` if `fill_value=0.0`.
+* `null`: Replace bad vectors with null (only works if the column is nullable).
+    A bad vector `[1.0, NaN, 3.0]` will be replaced with `null` if the column is
+    nullable. If the vector column is non-nullable, then bad vectors will cause an

+LangChain streamlines these stages (in figure above) by providing pre-built components and tools for integration, memory management, and deployment, allowing developers to focus on application logic rather than underlying complexities.
+
+Integration of **Langchain** with **LanceDB** enables applications to retrieve the most relevant data by comparing query vectors against stored vectors, facilitating effective information retrieval. It results in better and context aware replies and actions by the LLMs.

+### mergeInsert
+
+▸ **mergeInsert**(`on`, `data`, `args`): `Promise`\<`void`\>
+
+Runs a "merge insert" operation on the table
+
+This operation can add rows, update rows, and remove rows all in a single
+transaction. It is a very generic tool that can be used to create
+behaviors like "insert if not exists", "update or insert (i.e. upsert)",
+or even replace a portion of existing data with new data (e.g. replace
+all data where month="january")
+
+The merge insert operation works by combining new data from a
+**source table** with existing data in a **target table** by using a
+join.  There are three categories of records.
+
+"Matched" records are records that exist in both the source table and
+the target table. "Not matched" records exist only in the source table
+(e.g. these are new data) "Not matched by source" records exist only
+in the target table (this is old data)
+
+The MergeInsertArgs can be used to customize what should happen for
+each category of data.
+
+Please note that the data may appear to be reordered as part of this
+operation.  This is because updated rows will be deleted from the
+dataset and then reinserted at the end with the new values.
+
+#### Parameters
+
+| Name | Type | Description |
+| :------ | :------ | :------ |
+| `on` | `string` | a column to join on. This is how records from the source table and target table are matched. |
+| `data` | `Table`\<`any`\> \| `Record`\<`string`, `unknown`\>[] | the new data to insert |
+| `args` | [`MergeInsertArgs`](../interfaces/MergeInsertArgs.md) | parameters controlling how the operation should behave |

For example, if the column `not_indexed` does not have a scalar index then the filter `my_col = 0 OR not_indexed = 1` will not be able to use any scalar index on `my_col`. |

+
+• **mergeInsert**: (`on`: `string`, `data`: `Table`\<`any`\> \| `Record`\<`string`, `unknown`\>[], `args`: [`MergeInsertArgs`](MergeInsertArgs.md)) => `Promise`\<`void`\>
+
+#### Type declaration
+
+▸ (`on`, `data`, `args`): `Promise`\<`void`\>
+
+Runs a "merge insert" operation on the table
+
+This operation can add rows, update rows, and remove rows all in a single
+transaction. It is a very generic tool that can be used to create
+behaviors like "insert if not exists", "update or insert (i.e. upsert)",
+or even replace a portion of existing data with new data (e.g. replace
+all data where month="january")
+
+The merge insert operation works by combining new data from a
+**source table** with existing data in a **target table** by using a
+join.  There are three categories of records.
+
+"Matched" records are records that exist in both the source table and
+the target table. "Not matched" records exist only in the source table
+(e.g. these are new data) "Not matched by source" records exist only
+in the target table (this is old data)
+
+The MergeInsertArgs can be used to customize what should happen for
+each category of data.
+
+Please note that the data may appear to be reordered as part of this
+operation.  This is because updated rows will be deleted from the
+dataset and then reinserted at the end with the new values.
+
+##### Parameters
+
+| Name | Type | Description |
+| :------ | :------ | :------ |
+| `on` | `string` | a column to join on. This is how records from the source table and target table are matched. |

+### makeArrowTable
+
+▸ **makeArrowTable**(`data`, `options?`): `ArrowTable`
+
+An enhanced version of the makeTable function from Apache Arrow
+that supports nested fields and embeddings columns.
+
+This function converts an array of Record<String, any> (row-major JS objects)
+to an Arrow Table (a columnar structure)
+
+Note that it currently does not support nulls.
+
+If a schema is provided then it will be used to determine the resulting array
+types.  Fields will also be reordered to fit the order defined by the schema.
+
+If a schema is not provided then the types will be inferred and the field order
+will be controlled by the order of properties in the first record.
+
+If the input is empty then a schema must be provided to create an empty table.
+
+When a schema is not specified then data types will be inferred.  The inference
+rules are as follows:
+
+ - boolean => Bool
+ - number => Float64
+ - String => Utf8
+ - Buffer => Binary
+ - Record<String, any> => Struct
+ - Array<any> => List
+
+#### Parameters
+
+| Name | Type | Description |
+| :------ | :------ | :------ |
+| `data` | `Record`\<`string`, `any`\>[] | input data |
+| `options?` | `Partial`\<[`MakeArrowTableOptions`](classes/MakeArrowTableOptions.md)\> | options to control the makeArrowTable call. |
+
+#### Returns
+
+`ArrowTable`
+
+**`Example`**
+
+```ts
+
+import { fromTableToBuffer, makeArrowTable } from "../arrow";
+import { Field, FixedSizeList, Float16, Float32, Int32, Schema } from "apache-arrow";
+
+const schema = new Schema([
+  new Field("a", new Int32()),
+  new Field("b", new Float32()),
+  new Field("c", new FixedSizeList(3, new Field("item", new Float16()))),
+ ]);
+ const table = makeArrowTable([
+   { a: 1, b: 2, c: [1, 2, 3] },
+   { a: 4, b: 5, c: [4, 5, 6] },
+   { a: 7, b: 8, c: [7, 8, 9] },
+ ], { schema });
+```
+
+By default it assumes that the column named `vector` is a vector column
+and it will be converted into a fixed size list array of type float32.
+The `vectorColumns` option can be used to support other vector column
+names and data types.
+
+```ts
+
+const schema = new Schema([
+   new Field("a", new Float64()),
+   new Field("b", new Float64()),
+   new Field(
+     "vector",
+     new FixedSizeList(3, new Field("item", new Float32()))
+   ),
+ ]);
+ const table = makeArrowTable([
+   { a: 1, b: 2, vector: [1, 2, 3] },
+   { a: 4, b: 5, vector: [4, 5, 6] },
+   { a: 7, b: 8, vector: [7, 8, 9] },
+ ]);
+ assert.deepEqual(table.schema, schema);
+```
+
+You can specify the vector column types and names using the options as well
+
+```typescript
+
+const schema = new Schema([
+   new Field('a', new Float64()),
+   new Field('b', new Float64()),
+   new Field('vec1', new FixedSizeList(3, new Field('item', new Float16()))),
+   new Field('vec2', new FixedSizeList(3, new Field('item', new Float16())))

+Note that both pre-filtering and post-filtering can yield false positives. For pre-filtering, if the filter is too selective, it might eliminate relevant items that the vector search would have otherwise identified as a good match. In this case, increasing `nprobes` parameter will help reduce such false positives. It is recommended to set `use_index=false` if you know that the filter is highly selective.

+## Getting help
+
+The following sections provide various diagnostics and troubleshooting tips for LanceDB.
+These can help you provide additional information when asking questions or making
+error reports.
+
+For trouble shooting, the best place to ask is in our Discord, under the relevant
+language channel. By asking in the language-specific channel, it makes it more
+likely that someone who knows the answer will see your question.
+
+## Enabling logging
+
+To provide more information, especially for LanceDB Cloud related issues, enable
+debug logging. You can set the `LANCEDB_LOG` environment variable:
+
+```shell
+export LANCEDB_LOG=debug
+```
+
+You can turn off colors and formatting in the logs by setting
+
+```shell
+export LANCEDB_LOG_STYLE=never
+```
+
+## Explaining query plans
+
+If you have slow queries or unexpected query results, it can be helpful to
+print the resolved query plan. You can use the `explain_plan` method to do this:
+
+* Python Sync: [LanceQueryBuilder.explain_plan][lancedb.query.LanceQueryBuilder.explain_plan]
+* Python Async: [AsyncQueryBase.explain_plan][lancedb.query.AsyncQueryBase.explain_plan]
+* Node @lancedb/lancedb: [LanceQueryBuilder.explainPlan](/lancedb/js/classes/QueryBase/#explainplan)
