Will Jones 5d3f06c44a test: update hash-split expectations for DataFusion 54 foldhash
DataFusion 54's `create_hashes` uses foldhash instead of ahash, so the
concrete hash values (and therefore split assignments) differ from the
DF53 baseline:

- `test_hash_split` (Rust): recompute the expected per-split counts.
- `test_split_hash_with_discard` (Python): hash a high-cardinality
  column instead of the 2-value `category`, so the discard ratio no
  longer hinges on where two specific hashes land.

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)
