Ayush Chaurasia cb57b7655e feat(python): add Permutation.from_table() with chainable HF/torch-style API
Hides the two-step `permutation_builder(t).shuffle().execute()` /
`Permutation.from_tables(t, perm_tbl)` dance behind a single chainable
entry point that ML engineers already expect from HuggingFace and
PyTorch:

  perm = Permutation.from_table(table).shuffle(seed=42)

Builder operations (shuffle, filter, split_*) are accumulated lazily and
the underlying permutation table is built only once on first read.
Subsequent read / transform / format calls are forwarded transparently
to the materialized Permutation.

LanceDB Python SDK

A Python library for LanceDB.

Installation

pip install lancedb

Preview Releases

Stable releases are created about every 2 weeks. For the latest features and bug fixes, you can install the preview release. These releases receive the same level of testing as stable releases, but are not guaranteed to be available for more than 6 months after they are released. Once your application is stable, we recommend switching to stable releases.

pip install --pre --extra-index-url https://pypi.fury.io/lancedb/ lancedb

Usage

Basic Example

import lancedb
db = lancedb.connect('<PATH_TO_LANCEDB_DATASET>')
table = db.open_table('my_table')
results = table.search([0.1, 0.3]).limit(20).to_list()
print(results)
