-name: lancedb-update-lance-dependency
-description: Update LanceDB to a specific Lance release or tag. Use when bumping Lance dependencies in the lancedb repository, including Rust workspace Lance crates, Java lance-core, validation, branch creation, commit, push, and PR creation when requested.
----
-
-# LanceDB Update Lance Dependency
-
-## Scope
-
-Use this skill in the `lancedb/lancedb` repository when updating the Lance dependency to a specific Lance version or tag.
-
-Inputs can be a version (`7.2.0-beta.1`), a tag (`v7.2.0-beta.1`), a tag ref (`refs/tags/v7.2.0-beta.1`), or `latest`.
-
-## Workflow
-
-1. Confirm the worktree status with `git status --short`.
-2. Resolve the target Lance version:
-
-   - If the input is `latest`, empty, or omitted, run:
-
-     ```bash
-     python3 ci/check_lance_release.py
-     ```
-
-     Parse the JSON output. If `needs_update` is not `true`, stop without creating a PR. Otherwise use `latest_tag`.
-
-   - If the input is explicit, use it directly.
-
-3. Compute update metadata without changing files:
-
-   ```bash
-   python3 ci/update_lance_dependency.py "$TAG_OR_VERSION" --metadata-only
-   ```
-
-   Before making changes, check for an existing open PR with the emitted `pr_title`:
-
-   ```bash
-   gh pr list --search "\"$PR_TITLE\" in:title" --state open --limit 1 --json number,url,title
-   ```
-
-   If a matching open PR exists, stop and report it instead of creating a duplicate.
-
-4. Run the deterministic update entrypoint:
-
-   ```bash
-   python3 ci/update_lance_dependency.py "$TAG_OR_VERSION"
-   ```
-
-   This updates the Rust workspace Lance dependencies through `ci/set_lance_version.py`, updates `java/pom.xml`, refreshes Cargo metadata, and prints JSON metadata containing `branch_name`, `commit_message`, and `pr_title`.
-
-5. Run validation:
-
-   ```bash
-   cargo clippy --quiet --workspace --tests --all-features -- -D warnings
-   cargo fmt --all --quiet
-   ```
-
-   Fix real diagnostics and rerun clippy until it succeeds. Do not skip warnings.
-
-6. Inspect `git status --short` and `git diff` to ensure only the Lance dependency update and required compatibility fixes are present.
-
-7. If the task only asks to prepare local changes, stop here and report the changed files and validation result.
-
-8. If the task asks to publish the update, create a branch using the printed `branch_name`, stage all relevant files, and commit using the printed `commit_message`. Do not amend or rewrite existing commits.
-
-9. Push to `origin`. Before creating the PR, check that the current token has push permission:
-
-   ```bash
-   gh api repos/lancedb/lancedb --jq .permissions.push
-   ```
-
-   If the remote branch already exists for the same generated branch name, delete the remote ref with `gh api -X DELETE repos/lancedb/lancedb/git/refs/heads/$BRANCH_NAME`, then push. Do not force-push.
-
-10. Create a PR targeting `main` with the printed `pr_title`. If there is no PR template, keep the body to two or three concise sentences: state the Lance dependency bump, note any required compatibility fixes, and link the triggering Lance tag or release.
-
-11. Read back the remote PR title after creation. If it is not a Conventional Commit title, fix it immediately.
-
-12. When running in GitHub Actions after creating the LanceDB PR, trigger the Sophon dependency update:
-
-    ```bash
-    gh workflow run codex-bump-lancedb-lance.yml \
-      --repo lancedb/sophon \
-      -f lance_ref="$LANCE_TAG" \
-      -f lancedb_ref="$BRANCH_NAME"
-    gh run list --repo lancedb/sophon --workflow codex-bump-lancedb-lance.yml --limit 1 --json databaseId,url,displayTitle
-    ```
-
-    Use the emitted metadata `tag` value as `LANCE_TAG`. Do this only after a new LanceDB PR has been created. If the update was skipped because no update is needed or an open PR already exists, do not trigger Sophon.
-
-## GitHub Actions
-
-When this skill is used from GitHub Actions, `TAG`, `GH_TOKEN`, and `GITHUB_TOKEN` may already be set. Resolve `latest` first when `TAG` is empty. Once an explicit tag or version is known, use:
-
-```bash
-python3 ci/update_lance_dependency.py "$TAG" --github-output "$GITHUB_OUTPUT"
-```
-
-Then use the emitted `branch_name`, `commit_message`, and `pr_title` values for branch, commit, and PR creation.

-          You are running inside the lancedb repository on a GitHub Actions runner. Your task is to fix a CI failure.
-
-          Input parameters:
-          - Failing workflow run URL: ${WORKFLOW_RUN_URL}
-          - Branch to fix: ${BRANCH}
-          - Additional guidelines: ${GUIDELINES:-"None provided"}
-
-          Follow these steps exactly:
-
-          1. Extract the run ID from the workflow URL. The URL format is https://github.com/lancedb/lancedb/actions/runs/<run_id>.
-
-          2. Use "gh run view <run_id> --json jobs,conclusion,name" to get information about the failed run.
-
-          3. Identify which jobs failed. For each failed job, use "gh run view <run_id> --job <job_id> --log-failed" to get the failure logs.
-
-          4. Analyze the failure logs to understand what went wrong. Common failures include:
-             - Compilation errors
-             - Test failures
-             - Clippy warnings treated as errors
-             - Formatting issues
-             - Dependency issues
-
-          5. Based on the analysis, fix the issues in the codebase:
-             - For compilation errors: Fix the code that doesn't compile
-             - For test failures: Fix the failing tests or the code they test
-             - For clippy warnings: Apply the suggested fixes
-             - For formatting issues: Run "cargo fmt --all"
-             - For other issues: Apply appropriate fixes
-
-          6. After making fixes, verify them locally:
-             - Run "cargo fmt --all" to ensure formatting is correct
-             - Run "cargo clippy --workspace --tests --all-features -- -D warnings" to check for issues
-             - Run ONLY the specific failing tests to confirm they pass now:
-               - For Rust test failures: Run the specific test with "cargo test -p <crate> <test_name>"
-               - For Python test failures: Build with "cd python && maturin develop" then run "pytest <specific_test_file>::<test_name>"
-               - For Java test failures: Run "cd java && mvn test -Dtest=<TestClass>#<testMethod>"
-               - For TypeScript test failures: Run "cd nodejs && pnpm build && pnpm test -- --testNamePattern='<test_name>'"
-               - Do NOT run the full test suite - only run the tests that were failing
-
-          7. If the additional guidelines are provided, follow them as well.
-
-          8. Inspect "git status --short" and "git diff" to review your changes.
-
-          9. Create a fix branch: "git checkout -b codex/fix-ci-<run_id>".
-
-          10. Stage all changes with "git add -A" and commit with message "fix: resolve CI failures from run <run_id>".
-
-          11. Push the branch: "git push origin codex/fix-ci-<run_id>". If the remote branch exists, delete it first with "gh api -X DELETE repos/lancedb/lancedb/git/refs/heads/codex/fix-ci-<run_id>" then push. Do NOT use "git push --force" or "git push -f".
-
-          12. Create a pull request targeting "${BRANCH}":
-              - Title: "ci: <short summary describing the fix>" (e.g., "ci: fix clippy warnings in lancedb" or "ci: resolve test flakiness in vector search")
-              - First, write the PR body to /tmp/pr-body.md using a heredoc (cat <<'PREOF' > /tmp/pr-body.md). The body should include:
-                - Link to the failing workflow run
-                - Summary of what failed
-                - Description of the fixes applied
-              - Then run "gh pr create --base ${BRANCH} --body-file /tmp/pr-body.md".
-
-          13. Display the new PR URL, "git status --short", and a summary of what was fixed.
-
-          Constraints:
-          - Use bash commands for all operations.
-          - Do not merge the PR.
-          - Do not modify GitHub workflow files unless they are the cause of the failure.
-          - If any command fails, diagnose and attempt to fix the issue instead of aborting immediately.
-          - If you cannot fix the issue automatically, create the PR anyway with a clear explanation of what you tried and what remains to be fixed.
-          - env "GH_TOKEN" is available, use "gh" tools for GitHub-related operations.

+          Follow these steps exactly:

+          2. Run "cargo clippy --workspace --tests --all-features -- -D warnings". If diagnostics appear, fix them yourself and rerun clippy until it exits cleanly. Do not skip any warnings.
+          3. After clippy succeeds, run "cargo fmt --all" to format the workspace.
+          4. Ensure the repository is clean except for intentional changes. Inspect "git status --short" and "git diff" to confirm the dependency update and any required fixes.
+          5. Create and switch to a new branch named "${BRANCH_NAME}" (replace any duplicated hyphens if necessary).
+          6. Stage all relevant files with "git add -A". Commit using the message "chore: update lance dependency to v${VERSION}".
+          7. Push the branch to origin. If the branch already exists, force-push your changes.
+          8. env "GH_TOKEN" is available, use "gh" tools for github related operations like creating pull request.

+          10. After creating the PR, display the PR URL, "git status --short", and a concise summary of the commands run and their results.
 
           Constraints:
-          - Use env "GH_TOKEN" for GitHub operations.

-* TypeScript changes: run the relevant `npm`/`pnpm` lint, format, build, and docs commands in `nodejs`.

-## Python API reference
-
-`docs/src/python/python.md` is the entire Python API reference. It is maintained by
-hand, and anything not listed there is not rendered at all, so new public classes and
-module-level functions have to be added explicitly. How depends on the module:
-
-* `lancedb.index`, `lancedb.embeddings`, `lancedb.remote`, and `lancedb.rerankers` are
-  rendered by a single directive each, driven by the module's `__all__`. Add the new
-  name to `__all__` and it appears; forget, and it is silently omitted.
-* Everything else (`lancedb`, `lancedb.table`, `lancedb.query`, `lancedb.db`, ...) is
-  listed symbol by symbol. Add a `::: lancedb.<module>.<Name>` line to the matching
-  section, and remember that the page separates synchronous and asynchronous APIs.
-
-Deliberately undocumented: concrete implementations reached through an abstract base
-(`LanceTable`, `LanceDBConnection`, `RemoteDBConnection`), query base classes already
-covered by `inherited_members`, and internal helpers.
-
-Cross-references in docstrings use mkdocstrings syntax, `[text][lancedb.table.Table]`.
-Plain relative links such as `[Table](Table)` do not resolve. To check your work:
-
-```shell
-pip install -r docs/requirements.txt
-cd docs && PYTHONPATH=. mkdocs build
-```
-
-The docs site only builds on pushes to `main`, so this is not covered by PR CI.

-Repo-specific guidance for automated PR reviews.
-
-## Cross-SDK parity
-
-LanceDB exposes the same core (`rust/lancedb`) through Python, TypeScript (`nodejs`),
-and Java bindings. Behavioral drift between SDKs is a recurring problem, so watch for
-parity gaps when reviewing — but only flag real ones:
-
-* If the change adds or modifies user-facing API or behavior in the shared core
-  (`rust/lancedb`), check whether each binding that should expose it (`python`,
-  `nodejs`) does. A core change with no corresponding binding update is worth a note.
-* If the change adds or modifies a public API in one SDK but not the other, open the
-  sibling SDK's corresponding module and state whether an equivalent exists. If not,
-  note it as a possible parity gap and suggest a follow-up issue.
-* For bug fixes, first read the sibling SDK's analogous code path to check whether the
-  same bug exists there. Only raise parity if it actually does. Do not ask to "port" a
-  fix for a bug that only ever existed in one binding.
-* Stay silent on internal-only refactors, tests, docs, and changes with no cross-SDK
-  surface.
-* Parity expectations apply to the Python and TypeScript (`nodejs`) SDKs. Java currently
-  implements only the remote table, not the local/embedded backend, so it is expected to
-  be partial — do not flag Java for missing local-only functionality.
-* Keep parity feedback to a short, clearly-labeled note (e.g. "Possible SDK parity
-  gap: …"). It is advisory, not a merge blocker.

-# VoyageAI Embeddings : Multimodal
-
-VoyageAI embeddings can also be used to embed both text and image data, only some of the models support image data and you can check the list
-under [https://docs.voyageai.com/docs/multimodal-embeddings](https://docs.voyageai.com/docs/multimodal-embeddings)
-
-Supported multimodal models:
-
-- `voyage-multimodal-3` - 1024 dimensions (text + images)
-- `voyage-multimodal-3.5` - Flexible dimensions (256, 512, 1024 default, 2048). Supports text, images, and video.
-
-### Video Support (voyage-multimodal-3.5)
-
-The `voyage-multimodal-3.5` model supports video input through:
-- Video URLs (`.mp4`, `.webm`, `.mov`, `.avi`, `.mkv`, `.m4v`, `.gif`)
-- Video file paths
-
-Constraints: Max 20MB video size.
-
-Supported parameters (to be passed in `create` method) are:
-
-| Parameter | Type | Default Value           | Description                               |
-|---|---|-------------------------|-------------------------------------------|
-| `name` | `str` | `"voyage-multimodal-3"` | The model ID of the VoyageAI model to use |
-| `output_dimension` | `int` | `None` | Output dimension for voyage-multimodal-3.5. Valid: 256, 512, 1024, 2048 |
-

-
-```python
-import base64
-import os
-from io import BytesIO
-
-import requests
-import lancedb

-    vec_from_bytes: Vector(func.ndims()) = func.VectorField()  # Another vector column
-
-

-Now we can search using text from both the default vector column and the custom vector column
-```python
-
-# text search
-actual = table.search("man's best friend", "vec_from_bytes").limit(1).to_pydantic(Images)[0]
-print(actual.label) # prints "dog"
-
-frombytes = (
-    table.search("man's best friend", vector_column_name="vec_from_bytes")
-    .limit(1)
-    .to_pydantic(Images)[0]
-)
-print(frombytes.label)
-
-```
-
-Because we're using a multi-modal embedding function, we can also search using images
-
-```python
-# image search
-query_image_uri = "http://farm1.staticflickr.com/200/467715466_ed4a31801f_z.jpg"

-# 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-4 Series (Latest)**
-
-- voyage-4 (1024 dims, general-purpose and multilingual retrieval, 320K batch tokens)
-- voyage-4-lite (1024 dims, optimized for latency and cost, 1M batch tokens)
-- voyage-4-large (1024 dims, best retrieval quality, 120K batch tokens)
-
-**Voyage-3 Series**
-
-- voyage-3
-- voyage-3-lite
-
-**Domain-Specific Models**
-
-- 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-4, voyage-4-lite, voyage-4-large, 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

-### Connecting to LanceDB Enterprise
-
-For LanceDB Enterprise deployments with a custom endpoint:
-
-```java
-LanceNamespace namespaceClient = LanceDbNamespaceClientBuilder.newBuilder()
-    .apiKey("your_lancedb_enterprise_api_key")
-    .database("your_database_name")
-    .endpoint("<your_enterprise_endpoint>")
-    .build();
-```
-
-### Configuration Options
-
-| Method | Description | Required |
-|--------|-------------|----------|
-| `apiKey(String)` | LanceDB API key | Yes |
-| `database(String)` | Database name | Yes |
-| `endpoint(String)` | Custom endpoint URL for Enterprise deployments | No |
-| `region(String)` | AWS region (default: "us-east-1") | No |
-| `config(String, String)` | Additional configuration parameters | No |
-
-### Opening a Table with Vended Credentials
-
-When the catalog vends temporary object store credentials, open the table through the
-namespace client. The Lance dataset builder fetches the table location and storage options
-from the catalog and refreshes the credentials when they expire.
-
-```java
-import com.lancedb.LanceDbNamespaceClientBuilder;
-import org.lance.Dataset;
-import org.lance.namespace.LanceNamespace;
-
-import java.util.Arrays;
-
-LanceNamespace namespaceClient = LanceDbNamespaceClientBuilder.newBuilder()
-    .apiKey(System.getenv("LANCEDB_API_KEY"))
-    .database(System.getenv("LANCEDB_DATABASE"))
-    // Set the endpoint for a LanceDB Enterprise deployment.
-    // .endpoint("https://your-enterprise-endpoint")
-    .build();
-
-try (Dataset dataset = Dataset.open()
-        .namespaceClient(namespaceClient)
-        .tableId(Arrays.asList("my_namespace", "my_table"))
-        .build()) {
-    System.out.println("Rows: " + dataset.countRows());
-}
-```
-
-Do not call `describeTable()` and then open the returned location with `Dataset.open(uri)`.
-Opening through `namespaceClient()` is what applies the vended storage options and enables
-automatic credential refresh. No object store credentials need to be passed by the application.
-
-## Metadata Operations
-
-### Creating a Namespace Path
-
-Namespace paths organize tables hierarchically. Create the desired namespace path before creating tables within it:
-
-```java
-import org.lance.namespace.model.CreateNamespaceRequest;
-import org.lance.namespace.model.CreateNamespaceResponse;
-
-// Create a child namespace path
-CreateNamespaceRequest request = new CreateNamespaceRequest();
-request.setId(Arrays.asList("my_namespace"));
-
-CreateNamespaceResponse response = namespaceClient.createNamespace(request);
-```
-
-You can also create nested namespace paths:
-
-```java
-// Create a nested namespace path: parent/child
-CreateNamespaceRequest request = new CreateNamespaceRequest();
-request.setId(Arrays.asList("parent_namespace", "child_namespace"));
-
-CreateNamespaceResponse response = namespaceClient.createNamespace(request);
-```
-
-### Describing a Namespace Path
-
-```java
-import org.lance.namespace.model.DescribeNamespaceRequest;
-import org.lance.namespace.model.DescribeNamespaceResponse;
-
-DescribeNamespaceRequest request = new DescribeNamespaceRequest();
-request.setId(Arrays.asList("my_namespace"));
-
-DescribeNamespaceResponse response = namespaceClient.describeNamespace(request);
-System.out.println("Namespace properties: " + response.getProperties());
-```
-
-### Listing Namespace Paths
-
-```java
-import org.lance.namespace.model.ListNamespacesRequest;
-import org.lance.namespace.model.ListNamespacesResponse;
-
-// List all namespace paths at the root level
-ListNamespacesRequest request = new ListNamespacesRequest();
-request.setId(Arrays.asList());  // Empty for root
-
-ListNamespacesResponse response = namespaceClient.listNamespaces(request);
-for (String ns : response.getNamespaces()) {
-    System.out.println("Namespace path: " + ns);
-}
-
-// List child namespace paths under a parent path
-ListNamespacesRequest childRequest = new ListNamespacesRequest();
-childRequest.setId(Arrays.asList("parent_namespace"));
-
-ListNamespacesResponse childResponse = namespaceClient.listNamespaces(childRequest);
-```
-
-### Listing Tables
-
-```java
-import org.lance.namespace.model.ListTablesRequest;
-import org.lance.namespace.model.ListTablesResponse;
-
-// List tables in a namespace path
-ListTablesRequest request = new ListTablesRequest();
-request.setId(Arrays.asList("my_namespace"));
-
-ListTablesResponse response = namespaceClient.listTables(request);
-for (String table : response.getTables()) {
-    System.out.println("Table: " + table);
-}
-```
-
-### Dropping a Namespace Path
-
-```java
-import org.lance.namespace.model.DropNamespaceRequest;
-import org.lance.namespace.model.DropNamespaceResponse;
-
-DropNamespaceRequest request = new DropNamespaceRequest();
-request.setId(Arrays.asList("my_namespace"));
-
-DropNamespaceResponse response = namespaceClient.dropNamespace(request);
-```
-
-### Describing a Table
-
-```java
-import org.lance.namespace.model.DescribeTableRequest;
-import org.lance.namespace.model.DescribeTableResponse;
-
-DescribeTableRequest request = new DescribeTableRequest();
-request.setId(Arrays.asList("my_namespace", "my_table"));
-
-DescribeTableResponse response = namespaceClient.describeTable(request);
-System.out.println("Table version: " + response.getVersion());
-System.out.println("Schema fields: " + response.getSchema().getFields());
-```
-
-### Dropping a Table
-
-```java
-import org.lance.namespace.model.DropTableRequest;
-import org.lance.namespace.model.DropTableResponse;
-
-DropTableRequest request = new DropTableRequest();
-request.setId(Arrays.asList("my_namespace", "my_table"));
-
-DropTableResponse response = namespaceClient.dropTable(request);
-```
-
-## Writing Data
-
-### Creating a Table
-
-Tables are created within a namespace path by providing data in Apache Arrow IPC format:
-
-```java
-import org.lance.namespace.LanceNamespace;

-import org.apache.arrow.vector.VectorSchemaRoot;
-import org.apache.arrow.vector.complex.FixedSizeListVector;
-import org.apache.arrow.vector.Float4Vector;
-import org.apache.arrow.vector.ipc.ArrowStreamWriter;
-import org.apache.arrow.vector.types.FloatingPointPrecision;
-import org.apache.arrow.vector.types.pojo.ArrowType;
-import org.apache.arrow.vector.types.pojo.Field;

-import org.apache.arrow.vector.types.pojo.Schema;
-
-import java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream;
-import java.nio.channels.Channels;
-import java.util.Arrays;
-
-// Create schema with id, name, and embedding fields
-Schema schema = new Schema(Arrays.asList(
-    new Field("id", FieldType.nullable(new ArrowType.Int(32, true)), null),
-    new Field("name", FieldType.nullable(new ArrowType.Utf8()), null),
-    new Field("embedding",
-        FieldType.nullable(new ArrowType.FixedSizeList(128)),
-        Arrays.asList(new Field("item",
-            FieldType.nullable(new ArrowType.FloatingPoint(FloatingPointPrecision.SINGLE)),
-            null)))
-));
-
-try (BufferAllocator allocator = new RootAllocator();
-     VectorSchemaRoot root = VectorSchemaRoot.create(schema, allocator)) {
-
-    // Populate data
-    root.setRowCount(3);
-    IntVector idVector = (IntVector) root.getVector("id");
-    VarCharVector nameVector = (VarCharVector) root.getVector("name");
-    FixedSizeListVector embeddingVector = (FixedSizeListVector) root.getVector("embedding");
-    Float4Vector embeddingData = (Float4Vector) embeddingVector.getDataVector();
-
-    for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
-        idVector.setSafe(i, i + 1);
-        nameVector.setSafe(i, ("item_" + i).getBytes());

-        for (int j = 0; j < 128; j++) {
-            embeddingData.setSafe(i * 128 + j, (float) i);
-        }
-    }
-    idVector.setValueCount(3);
-    nameVector.setValueCount(3);
-    embeddingData.setValueCount(3 * 128);

-    ByteArrayOutputStream out = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
-    try (ArrowStreamWriter writer = new ArrowStreamWriter(root, null, Channels.newChannel(out))) {
-        writer.start();
-        writer.writeBatch();
-        writer.end();

-    byte[] tableData = out.toByteArray();
-
-    // Create a table in a namespace path

-    request.setId(Arrays.asList("my_namespace", "my_table"));
-    CreateTableResponse response = namespaceClient.createTable(request, tableData);
-}
-```
-
-### Creating an Empty Table
-
-To create an empty table, send an Arrow IPC stream that contains the table schema and no record batches.
-The schema in the IPC stream becomes the table schema, and rows can be inserted later.
-
-```java
-import org.lance.namespace.model.CreateTableRequest;
-import org.lance.namespace.model.CreateTableResponse;
-import org.apache.arrow.memory.BufferAllocator;
-import org.apache.arrow.memory.RootAllocator;
-import org.apache.arrow.vector.VectorSchemaRoot;
-import org.apache.arrow.vector.ipc.ArrowStreamWriter;
-import org.apache.arrow.vector.types.FloatingPointPrecision;
-import org.apache.arrow.vector.types.pojo.ArrowType;
-import org.apache.arrow.vector.types.pojo.Field;
-import org.apache.arrow.vector.types.pojo.FieldType;
-import org.apache.arrow.vector.types.pojo.Schema;
-
-import java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream;
-import java.nio.channels.Channels;
-import java.util.Arrays;
-
-Schema schema = new Schema(Arrays.asList(
-    new Field("id", FieldType.nullable(new ArrowType.Int(32, true)), null),
-    new Field("name", FieldType.nullable(new ArrowType.Utf8()), null),
-    new Field("embedding",
-        FieldType.nullable(new ArrowType.FixedSizeList(128)),
-        Arrays.asList(new Field("item",
-            FieldType.nullable(new ArrowType.FloatingPoint(FloatingPointPrecision.SINGLE)),
-            null)))
-));
-
-byte[] emptyTableData;
-try (BufferAllocator allocator = new RootAllocator();
-     VectorSchemaRoot root = VectorSchemaRoot.create(schema, allocator)) {
-    root.setRowCount(0);
-
-    ByteArrayOutputStream out = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
-    try (ArrowStreamWriter writer = new ArrowStreamWriter(root, null, Channels.newChannel(out))) {
-        writer.start();
-        writer.end();
-    }
-    emptyTableData = out.toByteArray();
-}
-
-CreateTableRequest request = new CreateTableRequest();
-request.setId(Arrays.asList("my_namespace", "empty_table"));
-
-CreateTableResponse response = namespaceClient.createTable(request, emptyTableData);
-```
-
-### Insert
-
-```java
-import org.lance.namespace.model.InsertIntoTableRequest;
-import org.lance.namespace.model.InsertIntoTableResponse;
-
-// Prepare data in Arrow IPC format (similar to create table example)
-byte[] insertData = prepareArrowData();
-
-InsertIntoTableRequest request = new InsertIntoTableRequest();
-request.setId(Arrays.asList("my_namespace", "my_table"));
-request.setMode(InsertIntoTableRequest.ModeEnum.APPEND);
-
-InsertIntoTableResponse response = namespaceClient.insertIntoTable(request, insertData);
-System.out.println("New version: " + response.getVersion());
-```
-
-### Update
-
-Update rows matching a predicate condition:
-
-```java
-import org.lance.namespace.model.UpdateTableRequest;
-import org.lance.namespace.model.UpdateTableResponse;
-
-UpdateTableRequest request = new UpdateTableRequest();
-request.setId(Arrays.asList("my_namespace", "my_table"));
-
-// Predicate to select rows to update
-request.setPredicate("id = 1");
-
-// Set new values using SQL expressions as [column_name, expression] pairs
-request.setUpdates(Arrays.asList(
-    Arrays.asList("name", "'updated_name'")
-));
-
-UpdateTableResponse response = namespaceClient.updateTable(request);
-System.out.println("Updated rows: " + response.getUpdatedRows());
-```
-
-### Delete
-
-Delete rows matching a predicate condition:
-
-```java
-import org.lance.namespace.model.DeleteFromTableRequest;
-import org.lance.namespace.model.DeleteFromTableResponse;
-
-DeleteFromTableRequest request = new DeleteFromTableRequest();
-request.setId(Arrays.asList("my_namespace", "my_table"));
-
-// Predicate to select rows to delete
-request.setPredicate("id > 100");
-
-DeleteFromTableResponse response = namespaceClient.deleteFromTable(request);
-System.out.println("New version: " + response.getVersion());
-```
-
-### Merge Insert (Upsert)
-
-Merge insert allows you to update existing rows and insert new rows in a single operation based on a key column:
-
-```java
-import org.lance.namespace.model.MergeInsertIntoTableRequest;
-import org.lance.namespace.model.MergeInsertIntoTableResponse;
-
-// Prepare data with rows to update (id=2,3) and new rows (id=4)
-byte[] mergeData = prepareArrowData();  // Contains rows with id=2,3,4
-
-MergeInsertIntoTableRequest request = new MergeInsertIntoTableRequest();
-request.setId(Arrays.asList("my_namespace", "my_table"));
-
-// Match on the "id" column
-request.setOn("id");
-
-// Update all columns when a matching row is found
-request.setWhenMatchedUpdateAll(true);
-
-// Insert new rows when no match is found
-request.setWhenNotMatchedInsertAll(true);
-
-MergeInsertIntoTableResponse response = namespaceClient.mergeInsertIntoTable(request, mergeData);
-
-System.out.println("Updated rows: " + response.getNumUpdatedRows());
-System.out.println("Inserted rows: " + response.getNumInsertedRows());
-```
-
-## Querying Data
-
-### Counting Rows
-
-```java
-import org.lance.namespace.model.CountTableRowsRequest;
-
-CountTableRowsRequest request = new CountTableRowsRequest();
-request.setId(Arrays.asList("my_namespace", "my_table"));
-
-Long rowCount = namespaceClient.countTableRows(request);
-System.out.println("Row count: " + rowCount);
-```
-
-### Vector Search
-
-```java
-import org.lance.namespace.model.QueryTableRequest;
-import org.lance.namespace.model.QueryTableRequestVector;
-
-QueryTableRequest query = new QueryTableRequest();
-query.setId(Arrays.asList("my_namespace", "my_table"));
-query.setK(10);  // Return top 10 results
-
-// Set the query vector
-List<Float> queryVector = new ArrayList<>();
-for (int i = 0; i < 128; i++) {
-    queryVector.add(1.0f);
-}
-QueryTableRequestVector vector = new QueryTableRequestVector();
-vector.setSingleVector(queryVector);
-query.setVector(vector);
-
-// Specify columns to return
-query.setColumns(Arrays.asList("id", "name", "embedding"));
-
-// Execute query - returns Arrow IPC format
-byte[] result = namespaceClient.queryTable(query);
-```
-
-### Full Text Search
-
-```java
-import org.lance.namespace.model.QueryTableRequest;
-import org.lance.namespace.model.QueryTableRequestFullTextQuery;
-import org.lance.namespace.model.StringFtsQuery;
-
-QueryTableRequest query = new QueryTableRequest();
-query.setId(Arrays.asList("my_namespace", "my_table"));
-query.setK(10);
-
-// Set full text search query
-StringFtsQuery stringQuery = new StringFtsQuery();
-stringQuery.setQuery("search terms");
-stringQuery.setColumns(Arrays.asList("text_column"));
-
-QueryTableRequestFullTextQuery fts = new QueryTableRequestFullTextQuery();
-fts.setStringQuery(stringQuery);
-query.setFullTextQuery(fts);
-
-// Specify columns to return
-query.setColumns(Arrays.asList("id", "text_column"));
-
-byte[] result = namespaceClient.queryTable(query);
-```
-
-### Query with Filter
-
-```java
-QueryTableRequest query = new QueryTableRequest();
-query.setId(Arrays.asList("my_namespace", "my_table"));
-query.setK(10);
-query.setFilter("id > 50");
-query.setColumns(Arrays.asList("id", "name"));
-
-byte[] result = namespaceClient.queryTable(query);
-```
-
-### Query with Prefilter
-
-```java
-QueryTableRequest query = new QueryTableRequest();
-query.setId(Arrays.asList("my_namespace", "my_table"));
-query.setK(5);
-query.setPrefilter(true);  // Apply filter before vector search
-query.setFilter("category = 'electronics'");
-
-// Set query vector
-QueryTableRequestVector vector = new QueryTableRequestVector();
-vector.setSingleVector(queryVector);
-query.setVector(vector);
-
-byte[] result = namespaceClient.queryTable(query);
-```
-
-## Indexing
-
-The Java SDK exposes the REST namespace index operations through the same `LanceNamespace` client.
-Index creation runs asynchronously, so use `listTableIndices` or `describeTableIndexStats` to check progress.
-
-### Creating a Vector Index
-
-```java
-import org.lance.namespace.model.CreateTableIndexRequest;
-import org.lance.namespace.model.CreateTableIndexResponse;
-
-CreateTableIndexRequest request = new CreateTableIndexRequest();
-request.setId(Arrays.asList("my_namespace", "my_table"));
-request.setColumn("embedding");
-request.setIndexType("IVF_PQ");
-request.setDistanceType("cosine");
-request.setName("embedding_idx");
-
-CreateTableIndexResponse response = namespaceClient.createTableIndex(request);
-System.out.println("Index transaction: " + response.getTransactionId());
-```
-
-### Creating a Scalar Index
-
-```java
-import org.lance.namespace.model.CreateTableIndexRequest;
-import org.lance.namespace.model.CreateTableScalarIndexResponse;
-
-CreateTableIndexRequest request = new CreateTableIndexRequest();
-request.setId(Arrays.asList("my_namespace", "my_table"));
-request.setColumn("category");
-request.setIndexType("BTREE");
-request.setName("category_idx");
-
-CreateTableScalarIndexResponse response = namespaceClient.createTableScalarIndex(request);
-System.out.println("Index transaction: " + response.getTransactionId());
-```
-
-### Creating a Full Text Search Index
-
-```java
-import org.lance.namespace.model.CreateTableIndexRequest;
-import org.lance.namespace.model.CreateTableScalarIndexResponse;
-
-CreateTableIndexRequest request = new CreateTableIndexRequest();
-request.setId(Arrays.asList("my_namespace", "my_table"));
-request.setColumn("text_column");
-request.setIndexType("FTS");
-request.setName("text_idx");
-request.setBaseTokenizer("simple");
-request.setLowerCase(true);
-request.setWithPosition(true);
-
-CreateTableScalarIndexResponse response = namespaceClient.createTableScalarIndex(request);
-System.out.println("Index transaction: " + response.getTransactionId());
-```
-
-### Listing Indexes
-
-```java
-import org.lance.namespace.model.IndexContent;
-import org.lance.namespace.model.ListTableIndicesRequest;
-import org.lance.namespace.model.ListTableIndicesResponse;
-
-ListTableIndicesRequest request = new ListTableIndicesRequest();
-request.setId(Arrays.asList("my_namespace", "my_table"));
-
-ListTableIndicesResponse response = namespaceClient.listTableIndices(request);
-for (IndexContent index : response.getIndexes()) {
-    System.out.println(index.getIndexName() + ": " + index.getStatus());
-}
-```
-
-!!! note
-    The current Java namespace API exposes index type, index name, distance type, and full text search tokenizer options.
-    IVF training parameters such as `num_partitions` are not exposed by `CreateTableIndexRequest` yet.
-    To make those configurable from Java, the namespace API must add those fields first.
-
-## Reading Query Results
-
-Query results are returned as bytes in Apache Arrow IPC file format. Put the byte-channel
-adapter behind a small helper so query code can work with `ArrowFileReader` directly:

-# Class: Branches
-
-Branch manager for a [Table](Table.md).
-
-Unlike tags, `create` and `checkout` return a new [Table](Table.md) handle scoped
-to the branch; writes on it do not affect `main`.
-
-## Methods
-
-### checkout()
-
-```ts
-checkout(name, version?): Promise<Table>
-```
-
-Check out an existing branch and return a handle scoped to it.
-
-With `version` set, the returned handle is pinned to that version of the
-branch (a read-only, detached view); otherwise it tracks the branch's
-latest and stays writable.
-
-#### Parameters
-
-* **name**: `string`
-
-* **version?**: `number`

-with `status: "failed"` instead of throwing.
-
-#### Parameters
-
-* **fromBranch**: `string`
-    Branch to cherry-pick from.
-
-* **dryRun**: `boolean` = `false`
-    When true, only preview. Defaults to false.

-# Class: Scannable
-
-A data source that can be scanned as a stream of Arrow `RecordBatch`es.
-
-`Scannable` wraps the schema + optional row count + rescannable flag and
-a callback that yields batches one at a time. It is passed to consumers
-(e.g. `Table.add`, `createTable`, `mergeInsert` — follow-up work) that
-need to pull data without materializing the full dataset in JS memory.
-
-Batches cross the JS↔Rust boundary as Arrow IPC Stream messages; a fresh
-writer serializes each batch, and the Rust side decodes it with
-`arrow_ipc::reader::StreamReader`. One batch is in flight at a time.
-
-## Properties
-
-### numRows
-
-```ts
-readonly numRows: null | number;
-```
-

-
-### rescannable
-
-```ts
-readonly rescannable: boolean;

-### schema
-
-```ts
-readonly schema: Schema<any>;
-```
-
-## Methods
-
-### fromFactory()
-
-```ts
-static fromFactory(
-   schema,
-   factory,
-   opts): Promise<Scannable>
-```
-
-Build a Scannable from an explicit schema and a factory that returns a
-fresh batch iterator on each call.
-
-The factory is invoked once per scan. Each iterator yields
-`RecordBatch`es matching the declared schema. Use this when you need
-direct control over the pull loop — for example, to wrap a streaming
-source whose batches are produced lazily.
-
-#### Parameters
-
-* **schema**: `Schema`&lt;`any`&gt;
-    The Arrow schema of the produced batches.
-
-* **factory**
-    Called at the start of each scan to produce a batch
-    iterator. Must be idempotent when `rescannable` is true.
-
-* **opts**: [`ScannableOptions`](../interfaces/ScannableOptions.md) = `{}`
-    Optional hints. `rescannable` defaults to `true`; set to
-    `false` if calling `factory()` twice would not reproduce the same data.
-
-#### Returns
-
-`Promise`&lt;[`Scannable`](Scannable.md)&gt;
-
-***
-
-### fromIterable()
-
-```ts
-static fromIterable(
-   schema,
-   iter,
-   opts): Promise<Scannable>
-```
-
-Build a Scannable from an iterable of `RecordBatch`es. `rescannable`
-defaults to `false`. Pass an explicit schema so the consumer can
-validate before any batch is pulled.
-
-`opts.rescannable: true` is honest for replayable iterables (Arrays,
-Sets, or custom iterables whose `[Symbol.iterator]()` returns a fresh
-iterator each call). It is rejected for one-shot iterables (generators,
-async generators, or already-an-iterator inputs) because their
-`[Symbol.iterator]()` returns the same exhausted object on the second
-scan. For replayable sources outside this shape, use
-`fromFactory(schema, () => createIter(), { rescannable: true })`.
-
-Note: when `opts.rescannable` is `true`, the constructor calls
-`[Symbol.iterator]()` once on the input to perform the structural check.
-
-#### Parameters
-
-* **schema**: `Schema`&lt;`any`&gt;
-
-* **iter**: `Iterable`&lt;`RecordBatch`&lt;`any`&gt;&gt; \| `AsyncIterable`&lt;`RecordBatch`&lt;`any`&gt;&gt;
-
-* **opts**: [`ScannableOptions`](../interfaces/ScannableOptions.md) = `{}`
-
-#### Returns

-
-***
-
-### fromRecordBatchReader()
-
-```ts
-static fromRecordBatchReader(reader, opts): Promise<Scannable>
-```
-
-Build a Scannable from an Arrow `RecordBatchReader`. A reader can only
-be consumed once; `rescannable` defaults to `false`.
-
-The reader must already be opened (via `.open()`) so its `.schema` is
-populated. `RecordBatchReader.from(...)` returns an unopened reader.
-
-`opts.rescannable: true` is rejected because `RecordBatchReader` is a
-self-iterator (its `[Symbol.iterator]()` returns itself), and this
-constructor does not call `reader.reset()` between scans, so a second
-scan would always see an exhausted reader. For genuinely replayable
-sources, use
-`fromFactory(schema, () => openReader(), { rescannable: true })`,
-which mints a fresh reader on each scan.
-
-#### Parameters
-
-* **reader**: `RecordBatchReader`&lt;`any`&gt;
-
-* **opts**: [`ScannableOptions`](../interfaces/ScannableOptions.md) = `{}`
-
-#### Returns

-
-### fromTable()
-
-```ts
-static fromTable(table, opts): Promise<Scannable>
-```
-
-Build a Scannable from an in-memory Arrow `Table`. Always rescannable;
-the table's batches are replayed on each scan.
-
-The table's row count is authoritative: `opts.numRows` must either be
-omitted or equal to `table.numRows`. `opts.rescannable` of `false` is
-rejected because in-memory Tables are always rescannable.
-
-#### Parameters
-
-* **table**: `Table`&lt;`any`&gt;
-
-* **opts**: [`ScannableOptions`](../interfaces/ScannableOptions.md) = `{}`

-requires it to be the single column being bucketed.
-
-Omitting `maintainedIndexes` maintains every index on the table, resolved

-
-Connect to a LanceDB database through a namespace.
-
-Unlike [connect](connect.md), which routes by URI scheme (local path vs.
-`db://` cloud), `connectNamespace` always returns a namespace-backed
-connection. The `implName` selects the namespace implementation:
-
-- `"dir"` — directory namespace, configured with [DirNamespaceConfig](../interfaces/DirNamespaceConfig.md).
-- `"rest"` — remote REST catalog, configured with [RestNamespaceConfig](../interfaces/RestNamespaceConfig.md).
-- Any other string — full module path for a custom implementation,
-  configured with a free-form string-keyed `properties` map.

-# Function: instrumentLanceDbMetrics()
-
-```ts
-function instrumentLanceDbMetrics(meterProvider?): boolean
-```
-
-Register LanceDB metrics as OpenTelemetry observable instruments.
-
-Installs a process-global metrics recorder and creates one observable
-instrument per LanceDB metric (currently object store request counts, bytes,
-latency, errors, and throttles) on the given (or global) `MeterProvider`. The
-configured `MetricReader` then collects them on its own schedule.
-
-Counters and gauges map directly to observable counters/gauges. Because
-OpenTelemetry has no asynchronous histogram instrument, each histogram is
-exported Prometheus-style as cumulative `le` bucket counts (`<name>_bucket`,
-with an `le` attribute) plus `<name>_count` and `<name>_sum`.
-
-Requires `@opentelemetry/api` (a dependency) and, to actually export, an
-OpenTelemetry SDK such as `@opentelemetry/sdk-metrics`.
-
-## Parameters
-
-* **meterProvider?**: `MeterProvider`
-    The provider to register instruments on. Defaults to the
-    global provider from `@opentelemetry/api`.
-
-## Returns
-
-`boolean`
-
-`true` if the recorder is installed and instruments are registered.
-  `false` if a different `metrics` recorder is already installed in this
-  process (only one global recorder is permitted), in which case a warning is
-  emitted and no instruments are created. Calling this more than once is safe;
-  instruments are created only on the first successful call.
