Fixes the breaking CI for nodejs, related to the documentation of the
new Permutation API in typescript.
- Expanded the generated typings in `nodejs/lancedb/native.d.ts` to
include `SplitCalculatedOptions`, `splitNames` fields, and the
persist/options-based `splitCalculated` methods so the permutation
exports match the native API.
- The previous block comment block had an inconsistency.
`splitCalculated` takes an options object (`SplitCalculatedOptions`) in
our bindings, not a bare string. The previous example showed
`builder.splitCalculated("user_id % 3");`, which doesn’t match the
actual signature and would fail TS typecheck. I updated the comment to
`builder.splitCalculated({ calculation: "user_id % 3" });` so the
example is now correct.
- Updated the `splitCalculated` example in
`nodejs/lancedb/permutation.ts` to use the options object.
- Ran `npm docs` to ensure docs build correctly.
> [!NOTE]
> **Disclaimer**: I used GPT-5.1-Codex-Max to make these updates, but I
have read the code and run `npm run docs` to verify that they work and
are correct to the best of my knowledge.

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.
