Chang She 484a121866 doc: improve embedding functions documentation (#983)
Got some user feedback that the `implicit` / `explicit` distinction is
confusing.
Instead I was thinking we would just deprecate the `with_embeddings` API
and then organize working with embeddings into 3 buckets:

1. manually generate embeddings
2. use a provided embedding function
3. define your own custom embedding function

LanceDB Documentation

LanceDB docs are deployed to https://lancedb.github.io/lancedb/.

Docs is built and deployed automatically by Github Actions whenever a commit is pushed to the main branch. So it is possible for the docs to show unreleased features.

Building the docs

Setup

  1. Install LanceDB. From LanceDB repo root: pip install -e python
  2. Install dependencies. From LanceDB repo root: pip install -r docs/requirements.txt
  3. Make sure you have node and npm setup
  4. Make sure protobuf and libssl are installed

Building node module and create markdown files

See Javascript docs README

Build docs

From LanceDB repo root:

Run: PYTHONPATH=. mkdocs build -f docs/mkdocs.yml

If successful, you should see a docs/site directory that you can verify locally.

Run local server

You can run a local server to test the docs prior to deployment by navigating to the docs directory and running the following command:

cd docs
mkdocs serve

Run doctest for typescript example

cd lancedb/docs
npm i
npm run build
npm run all
