Jack Ye 01c6b9dcb8 feat: add mem_wal flag to merge insert for MemWAL write path
Add support for enabling MemWAL (Memory Write-Ahead Log) mode on merge insert
operations. This allows streaming writes to route through memory nodes for
high-performance buffered writes.

Changes:
- Add `mem_wal` field to MergeInsertBuilder with validation
- Add `x-lancedb-mem-wal-enabled` header for remote requests
- Add Python `mem_wal()` method to LanceMergeInsertBuilder
- Add validation to ensure only upsert pattern is supported:
  - when_matched_update_all() without filter
  - when_not_matched_insert_all()
- Throw NotSupported error for native tables
- Add mem_wal_enabled to ClientConfig for Python/Node bindings

LanceDB JavaScript SDK

A JavaScript library for LanceDB.

Installation

npm install @lancedb/lancedb

This will download the appropriate native library for your platform. We currently support:

  • Linux (x86_64 and aarch64 on glibc and musl)
  • MacOS (Intel and ARM/M1/M2)
  • Windows (x86_64 and aarch64)

Usage

Basic Example

import * as lancedb from "@lancedb/lancedb";
const db = await lancedb.connect("data/sample-lancedb");
const table = await db.createTable("my_table", [
  { id: 1, vector: [0.1, 1.0], item: "foo", price: 10.0 },
  { id: 2, vector: [3.9, 0.5], item: "bar", price: 20.0 },
]);
const results = await table.vectorSearch([0.1, 0.3]).limit(20).toArray();
console.log(results);

The quickstart contains more complete examples.
