Will Jones 7ac5f74c80 feat!: add variable store to embeddings registry (#2112)
BREAKING CHANGE: embedding function implementations in Node need to now
call `resolveVariables()` in their constructors and should **not**
implement `toJSON()`.

This tries to address the handling of secrets. In Node, they are
currently lost. In Python, they are currently leaked into the table
schema metadata.

This PR introduces an in-memory variable store on the function registry.
It also allows embedding function definitions to label certain config
values as "sensitive", and the preprocessing logic will raise an error
if users try to pass in hard-coded values.

Closes #2110
Closes #521

LanceDB JavaScript SDK

A JavaScript library for LanceDB.

Installation

npm install @lancedb/lancedb

This will download the appropriate native library for your platform. We currently support:

  • Linux (x86_64 and aarch64)
  • MacOS (Intel and ARM/M1/M2)
  • Windows (x86_64 only)

We do not yet support musl-based Linux (such as Alpine Linux) or aarch64 Windows.

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 a more complete example.
