Changes: * Refactors the Node module to load the shared library from a separate package. When a user does `npm install vectordb`, the correct optional dependency is automatically downloaded by npm. * Brings Rust and Node versions in alignment at 0.1.2. * Add scripts and instructions to build Linux and MacOS node artifacts locally. * Add instructions for publishing the npm module and crates.
LanceDB
A JavaScript / Node.js library for LanceDB.
Installation
npm install vectordb
This will download the appropriate native library for your platform. We currently support x86_64 Linux, aarch64 Linux, Intel MacOS, and ARM (M1/M2) MacOS. We do not yet support Windows or musl-based Linux (such as Alpine Linux).
Usage
Basic Example
const lancedb = require('vectordb');
const db = lancedb.connect('<PATH_TO_LANCEDB_DATASET>');
const table = await db.openTable('my_table');
const query = await table.search([0.1, 0.3]).setLimit(20).execute();
console.log(results);
