So far, I have been using a hacky approach that creates and opens namespace-backed table, by getting its location and use a temporary lancedb connection to create or open it. This was working for features like credentials vending but is no longer fully working for the managed versioning feature, recently geneva tests have been failing here and there and various patches are not addressing the root cause. This PR fully fixes this and implements proper rust binding for it. Specifically: - build a real Rust namespace-backed connection from the Python namespace client - route namespace table create/open through that connection instead of resolved-location temp connections - keep namespace client naming consistent in the Rust bridge and preserve federated namespace + DuckDB behavior
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

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)
