A wrapper for an open-source database for vector-search with persistent storage. It simplifies retrieval, filtering, and management of embeddings.

Constructors

Properties

FilterType: string | object
embeddings: Embeddings
lc_kwargs: SerializedFields
lc_namespace: string[] = ...

A path to the module that contains the class, eg. ["langchain", "llms"] Usually should be the same as the entrypoint the class is exported from.

lc_serializable: boolean = false

Accessors

  • get lc_aliases(): undefined | {
        [key: string]: string;
    }
  • A map of aliases for constructor args. Keys are the attribute names, e.g. "foo". Values are the alias that will replace the key in serialization. This is used to eg. make argument names match Python.

    Returns undefined | {
        [key: string]: string;
    }

  • get lc_attributes(): undefined | SerializedFields
  • A map of additional attributes to merge with constructor args. Keys are the attribute names, e.g. "foo". Values are the attribute values, which will be serialized. These attributes need to be accepted by the constructor as arguments.

    Returns undefined | SerializedFields

  • get lc_secrets(): undefined | {
        [key: string]: string;
    }
  • A map of secrets, which will be omitted from serialization. Keys are paths to the secret in constructor args, e.g. "foo.bar.baz". Values are the secret ids, which will be used when deserializing.

    Returns undefined | {
        [key: string]: string;
    }

Methods

  • Adds vectors and their corresponding documents to the database.

    Parameters

    • vectors: number[][]

      The vectors to be added.

    • documents: Document<Record<string, any>>[]

      The corresponding documents to be added.

    Returns Promise<void>

    A Promise that resolves when the vectors and documents have been added.

  • Performs a similarity search on the vectors in the database and returns the documents and their scores.

    Parameters

    • query: number[]

      The query vector.

    • k: number

      The number of results to return.

    Returns Promise<[Document<Record<string, any>>, number][]>

    A Promise that resolves with an array of tuples, each containing a Document and its score.

  • Creates a new instance of LanceDB from texts.

    Parameters

    • texts: string[]

      The texts to be converted into documents.

    • metadatas: object | object[]

      The metadata for the texts.

    • embeddings: Embeddings

      The embeddings to be managed.

    • dbConfig: LanceDBArgs

      The configuration for the LanceDB instance.

    Returns Promise<LanceDB>

    A Promise that resolves with a new instance of LanceDB.

  • The name of the serializable. Override to provide an alias or to preserve the serialized module name in minified environments.

    Implemented as a static method to support loading logic.

    Returns string
