Bridges Lance's internal `metrics`-crate instrumentation (object store request counts, bytes, latency, errors, and throttles) into OpenTelemetry, in both the Python and Node bindings, with a shared adapter in the Rust core. This is the LanceDB counterpart to lance-format/lance#7537. ## Rust core (`rust/lancedb`) Two new, **off-by-default** features: - `metrics` — re-exports the [`metrics`](https://docs.rs/metrics) crate as `lancedb::metrics` and turns on Lance's object-store instrumentation. Install any `metrics`-compatible recorder to collect them. - `metrics-otel` — adds `lancedb::metrics_otel`, a pull-based adapter that installs a process-global recorder aggregating into lock-free cumulative storage and exposes a snapshot/catalog API (`register_metrics_recorder`, `metrics_catalog`, `snapshot_metrics`, `MetricPoint`/`MetricValue`/`MetricKind`/`MetricDescription`). Both bindings build on this. ## Python `lancedb.otel.instrument_lancedb_metrics()` registers each metric as an OpenTelemetry observable instrument on the given (or global) `MeterProvider`. Available via the `otel` extra (`pip install lancedb[otel]`), which pulls in only `opentelemetry-api` — the application supplies and configures the SDK. ## Node `instrumentLanceDbMetrics()` provides the equivalent wiring against `@opentelemetry/api`. This is the only public entry point; the underlying recorder/catalog/snapshot functions stay internal. Because OpenTelemetry has no asynchronous histogram instrument, histograms are exported Prometheus-style as `<name>_bucket` (with an `le` attribute), `<name>_count`, and `<name>_sum`. Only `_sum` carries the histogram's unit; `_bucket` and `_count` observe cumulative counts and are unitless. The adapter is enabled by default in the Python and Node builds, and off by default in the Rust crate. ## Notes - Requires Lance ≥ `v9.0.0-beta.19`, which ships the object-store metrics APIs (upstream lance-format/lance#7537, now merged). `main` is already on beta.19, so this is a single feature commit with no dependency bump. - Tests: 8 Rust unit tests, 3 Python tests, 2 Node tests, all covering the end-to-end object-store-metrics → OpenTelemetry path. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
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);
