## Problem and change
Some Keycloak client policies require S256 PKCE during device-code
login. Sending those parameters unconditionally breaks interoperability
with providers that expect standard RFC 8628 requests.
Configure device login with `OAuthFlow::DeviceCode(DeviceCodeOptions)`,
following the existing authorization-code options pattern.
`DeviceCodeOptions::new()` keeps PKCE disabled; `.use_pkce(true)` sends
an S256 challenge during device authorization and its matching verifier
during token polling. There is no automatic downgrade, and enabling PKCE
preserves the existing token-cache identity. Python, Node, and CLI
conversions retain ordinary device login without PKCE.
OIDC discovery and token requests now include a versioned User-Agent.
`env!("CARGO_PKG_VERSION")` is expanded at compile time and embeds the
version in the binary; no Cargo environment variable is needed when
running an installed binary or native binding.
The supported-flows guide documents the Rust-only device PKCE option and
its default.
## Rust API migration
BREAKING CHANGE: `OAuthFlow::DeviceCode` now carries
`DeviceCodeOptions`. Replace construction with
`OAuthFlow::DeviceCode(DeviceCodeOptions::new())` or
`OAuthFlow::DeviceCode(Default::default())`, and match with
`OAuthFlow::DeviceCode(_)`. Import `DeviceCodeOptions` from
`lancedb::remote` to opt into PKCE. Python and TypeScript public APIs
are unchanged.
## Validation
- `cargo +1.97.1 test --locked -p lancedb --features remote --lib
remote::`: 679 passed, including PKCE-on/off polling, option defaults,
User-Agent headers, and cache identity.
- `cargo +1.97.1 test --locked -p lancedb-python -p lancedb-nodejs --lib
test_device_code_conversion`: both native-binding conversion tests
passed.
- `cargo +1.97.1 test --locked -p lancedb --features remote --doc
remote::`: 6 passed, including the new options example and updated
session examples.
- `cargo +1.97.1 test --locked -p lancedb-cli --lib auth::tests::`: 11
passed.
- `cargo +1.97.1 fmt --all -- --check` and `git diff --check`: passed.
- A compiled version-string check ran successfully with
`CARGO_PKG_VERSION` unset at runtime.

LanceDB Documentation
For website guides in docs/web, start with
Documentation in CONTRIBUTING.md. That
covers editing pages, generated examples, previews, availability and drafts.
This page covers the SDK reference in docs/src, built with MkDocs. Its
GitHub Actions workflow builds and deploys on
pushes to main, so it can include unreleased APIs. That is separate from the
release editions of the Mintlify website.
Building the docs
Setup
- Install LanceDB Python. See setup in Python contributing guide.
Run
make developto install the Python package. - Install documentation dependencies. From LanceDB repo root:
pip install -r docs/requirements.txt
Preview the docs
Run these commands from the LanceDB repository root. The subshell changes into
docs to load mkdocs.yml, while leaving your shell in the repository root.
(cd docs && PYTHONPATH=. mkdocs serve)
If you want to just generate the HTML files:
(cd docs && PYTHONPATH=. mkdocs build)
If successful, you should see a docs/site directory in the repository root that
you can verify locally.
Adding examples
To make sure examples are correct, we put examples in test files so they can be run as part of our test suites.
You can see the tests are at:
- Python:
python/python/tests/docs - Typescript:
nodejs/examples/
Checking python examples
cd python
pytest -vv python/tests/docs
Checking typescript examples
The examples depend on @lancedb/lancedb at file:../dist, so the package must be
built before running the tests. This uses pnpm; see the
Typescript contributing guide for the toolchain setup.
pushd nodejs
pnpm install
pnpm build
popd
Then you can run the examples by going to the nodejs/examples directory, which is a
separate pnpm package with its own lockfile:
pushd nodejs/examples
pnpm install
pnpm test
popd
API documentation
Python
The Python API documentation is organized based on the file docs/src/python/python.md.
We manually add entries there so we can control the organization of the reference page.
However, this means any new types must be manually added to the file. No additional
steps are needed to generate the API documentation.
Typescript
The typescript API documentation is generated from the typescript source code using typedoc.
When new APIs are added, you must manually re-run the typedoc command to update the API documentation. The new files should be checked into the repository.
pushd nodejs
# `pnpm docs` would invoke pnpm's built-in `docs` command, not the script.
pnpm run docs
popd
