satya-nutella 9645fe52c2 fix: improve error handling and embedding logic in arrow.ts (#2433)
- Enhanced error messages for schema inference failures to suggest
providing an explicit schema.
- Updated embedding application logic to check for existing destination
columns, allowing for filling embeddings in columns that are all null.
- Added comments for clarity on handling existing columns during
embedding application.

Fixes https://github.com/lancedb/lancedb/issues/2183

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 on glibc and musl)
  • MacOS (Intel and ARM/M1/M2)
  • Windows (x86_64 and aarch64)

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.
