### Summary Adds a `connectNamespace(implName, properties, options?)` to the NodeJS SDK`. Closes #3380. ### Testing - pnpm test - Ran smoke test ``` import { connectNamespace } from "lancedb" import { tmpdir } from "os"; import { mkdtempSync } from "fs"; import { join } from "path"; const dir = mkdtempSync(join(tmpdir(), "lancedb-connect-namespace-smoke-")); console.log(`Using temp dir: ${dir}\n`); // 1.

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.
