Jack Ye dd2a0ec48f feat: add serialize_to_json/from_serialized_json for DBConnection
Add serialization support to DBConnection classes so connections
can be reconstructed in remote workers without tracking namespace
params separately.

- DBConnection.serialize_to_json() base method
- LanceDBConnection: serializes uri, storage_options, read_consistency_interval
- LanceNamespaceDBConnection: stores namespace_client_impl/properties,
  serializes all connection params including pushdown_operations
- from_serialized_json() factory with for_worker flag for worker_uri swap
- connect_namespace() now passes impl/properties to connection for serialization

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)
