Properties

Properties

destColumn

β€’ Optional destColumn: string

The name of the column that will contain the embedding

By default this is "vector"

Defined in

embedding/embedding_function.ts:49


embed

β€’ embed: (data: T[]) => Promise\<number[][]>

Type declaration

β–Έ (data): Promise\<number[][]>

Creates a vector representation for the given values.

Parameters
Name Type
data T[]
Returns

Promise\<number[][]>

Defined in

embedding/embedding_function.ts:62


embeddingDataType

β€’ Optional embeddingDataType: Float\<Floats>

The data type of the embedding

The embedding function should return number. This will be converted into an Arrow float array. By default this will be Float32 but this property can be used to control the conversion.

Defined in

embedding/embedding_function.ts:33


embeddingDimension

β€’ Optional embeddingDimension: number

The dimension of the embedding

This is optional, normally this can be determined by looking at the results of embed. If this is not specified, and there is an attempt to apply the embedding to an empty table, then that process will fail.

Defined in

embedding/embedding_function.ts:42


excludeSource

β€’ Optional excludeSource: boolean

Should the source column be excluded from the resulting table

By default the source column is included. Set this to true and only the embedding will be stored.

Defined in

embedding/embedding_function.ts:57


sourceColumn

β€’ sourceColumn: string

The name of the column that will be used as input for the Embedding Function.

Defined in

embedding/embedding_function.ts:24
