Usage

Instantiating API client

require 'milvus'

client = Milvus::Client.new(
    url: 'http://localhost:19530'
)

Using the Collections endpoints

# Check if the collection exists.
client.collections.has(collection_name: "example_collection")
# Rename a collection.
client.collections.rename(collection_name: "example_collection", new_collection_name: "example_collection")
# Get collection stats
client.collections.get_stats(collection_name: "example_collection")
# Data types: https://github.com/patterns-ai-core/milvus/blob/main/lib/milvus/constants.rb

# Creating a new collection schema
client.collections.create(
  collection_name: "example_collection",
  auto_id: true,
  fields: [
    {
      fieldName: "book_id",
      isPrimary: true,
      autoID: false,
      dataType: "Int64"
    },
    {
      fieldName: "content",
      dataType: "VarChar",
      elementTypeParams: {
        max_length: "512"
      }
    },
    {
      fieldName: "vector",
      dataType: "FloatVector",
      elementTypeParams: {
        dim: 1536
      }
    }
  ]
)
# Descrbie the collection
client.collections.describe(collection_name: "example_collection")
# Drop the collection
client.collections.drop(collection_name: "example_collection")
# Load the collection to memory before a search or a query
client.collections.load(collection_name: "example_collection")
# Load status of a specific collection.
client.collections.get_load_state(collection_name: "example_collection")
# List all collections in the specified database.
client.collections.list
# Release a collection from memory after a search or a query to reduce memory usage
client.collections.release(collection_name: "example_collection")

Inserting Data

client.entities.insert(
  collection_name: "example_collection",
  data: [
    { id: 1, content: "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog", vector: ([0.1]*1536) },
    { id: 2, content: "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit", vector: ([0.2]*1536) },
    { id: 3, content: "Sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua", vector: ([0.3]*1536) }
  ]  
)
# Delete the entities with the boolean expression you created
client.entities.delete(
  collection_name: "example_collection",
  expression: "book_id in [0,1]"
)
# Inserts new records into the database or updates existing ones.
client.entities.upsert()
# Get specific entities by their IDs
client.entities.get()

Indexes

# Create an index
index_params = [
  {
    metricType: "L2",
    fieldName: "vector",
    indexName: "vector_idx",
    indexConfig: {
      index_type: "AUTOINDEX"
    }
  }
]

client.indexes.create(
  collection_name: "example_collection",
  index_params: index_params
)
# Describe an index
client.indexes.describe(
  collection_name: "example_collection",
  index_name: "example_index"
)
# List indexes
client.indexes.list(
  collection_name: "example_collection"
)
# Drop an index
client.indexes.drop(
  collection_name: "example_collection",
  index_name: "example_index"
)

Search, Querying & Hybrid Search

client.entities.search(
  collection_name: "example_collection",
  anns_field: "vectors",
  data: [embedding],
  filter: "id in [450847466900987454]"
)
client.entities.query(
  collection_name: "example_collection",
  filter: "id in [450847466900987455, 450847466900987454]"
)
client.entities.hybrid_search(
  collection_name: "example_collection",
  search: [{
    filter: "id in [450847466900987455]",
    data: [embedding],
    annsField: "vectors",
    limit: 10,
    outputFields: ["content", "id"]
  }],
  rerank: {
    "strategy": "rrf",
    "params": {
      "k": 10
    }
  },
  limit: 10,
  output_fields: ["content", "id"]
)

Partitions

# List partitions
client.partitions.list(
  collection_name: "example_collection"
)
# Create a partition
client.partitions.create(
  collection_name: "example_collection",
  partition_name: "example_partition"
)
# Check if a partition exists
client.partitions.has(
  collection_name: "example_collection",
  partition_name: "example_partition"
)
# Load partition data into memory
client.partitions.load(
  collection_name: "example_collection",
  partition_names: ["example_partition"]
)
# Release partition data from memory
client.partitions.release(
  collection_name: "example_collection",
  partition_names: ["example_partition"]
)
# Get statistics of a partition
client.partitions.get_stats(
  collection_name: "example_collection",
  partition_name: "example_partition"
)

client.partitions.drop(
  collection_name: "example_collection",
  partition_name: "example_partition"

# Update password for the user
client.users.update_password(user_name: 'user_name', password: 'old_password', new_password: 'new_password')
# Grant role to the user
client.users.grant_role(user_name: 'user_name', role_name: 'admin')
# Revoke role from the user 
client.users.revoke_role(user_name: 'user_name', role_name: 'admin')

Aliases

# Lists all existing collection aliases in the specified database
client.aliases.list
# Describes the details of a specific alias
client.aliases.describe
# Reassigns the alias of one collection to another.
client.aliases.alter
# Drops a specified alias
client.aliases.drop
# Creates an alias for an existing collection

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and the created tag, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.

Development with Docker

Run docker compose run --rm ruby_app bash and install required gems (bundle install). It will give you a fully working development environment with Milvus services and gem's code.

For example inside docker container run bin/console and inside the ruby console:

client = Milvus::Client.new(url: ENV["MILVUS_URL"])
client.collections.list
