Close #773 we pass an empty table over IPC so we don't need to manually deal with serde. Then we just return the schema attribute from the empty table. --------- Co-authored-by: albertlockett <albert.lockett@gmail.com>
LanceDB
A JavaScript / Node.js library for LanceDB.

We do not yet support musl-based Linux (such as Alpine Linux) or aarch64 Windows.
Usage
Basic Example
const lancedb = require('vectordb');
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.search([0.1, 0.3]).limit(20).execute();
console.log(results);
