Chang She 7bac1131fb feat: add timezone handling for datetime in pydantic (#578)
If you add timezone information in the Field annotation for a datetime
then that will now be passed to the pyarrow data type.

I'm not sure how pyarrow enforces timezones, right now, it silently
coerces to the timezone given in the column regardless of whether the
input had the matching timezone or not. This is probably not the right
behavior. Though we could just make it so the user has to make the
pydantic model do the validation instead of doing that at the pyarrow
conversion layer.

LanceDB

A Python library for LanceDB.

Installation

pip install 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)

Development

Create a virtual environment and activate it:

python -m venv venv
. ./venv/bin/activate

Install the necessary packages:

python -m pip install .

To run the unit tests:

pytest

To run linter and automatically fix all errors:

black .
isort .

If any packages are missing, install them with:

pip install <PACKAGE_NAME>

For Windows users, there may be errors when installing packages, so these commands may be helpful:

Activate the virtual environment:

. .\venv\Scripts\activate

You may need to run the installs separately:

pip install -e .[tests]
pip install -e .[dev]

tantivy requires rust to be installed, so install it with conda, as it doesn't support windows installation:

pip install wheel
pip install cargo
conda install rust
pip install tantivy

To run the unit tests:

pytest
