LanceDB Robot bc8674ab22 chore!: update lance dependency to v9.0.0-rc.1 (#3673)
BREAKING CHANGE: splits generated by the permutation data loader will
not be the same, due to a change in hash function.

Updates the Lance dependencies and Java lance-core to
[v9.0.0-rc.1](https://github.com/lance-format/lance/releases/tag/v9.0.0-rc.1).
Includes the required DataFusion 54 and Lance file-reader compatibility
updates.

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)
