21ecafe9ae chore: update lance dependency to v13.0.0-beta.1 (#4183)
Update the Rust workspace Lance dependencies and Java lance-core from
v12.0.0-beta.18 to
[v13.0.0-beta.1](https://github.com/lance-format/lance/releases/tag/v13.0.0-beta.1),
and refresh Cargo.lock; no compatibility fixes were required.

Validation passed: `cargo clippy --quiet --workspace --tests
--all-features -- -D warnings`, `cargo fmt --all --quiet`, and `git diff
--check`.

Also fixes the flaky Node test `when optimizing a dataset › cleanups old
versions` that failed the NPM Publish Linux test jobs on this PR. The
test captured `new Date()` (millisecond precision) in the same
millisecond as the last commit, while Lance compares version timestamps
at nanosecond precision, so that version was not pruned. The test now
waits for the clock to tick to the next millisecond before taking the
cutoff. This is a pre-existing flake on `main` since #4160, unrelated to
the Lance upgrade.

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.
