|
| ## Usage |
|
|
| ### Remote query (no download needed) |
|
|
| ```python |
| import lancedb |
| |
| db = lancedb.connect("hf://datasets/Litian2002/robotics-papers-vecdb/lancedb") |
| table = db.open_table("papers") |
| print(f"Papers: {table.count_rows()}") |
| |
| # Semantic search (requires embedding your query first) |
| # See the companion repo for the full search pipeline |
| ``` |
|
|
| ### Local usage |
|
|
| ```bash |
| git clone https://huggingface.co/datasets/Litian2002/robotics-papers-vecdb |
| # or use huggingface_hub to download |
| ``` |
|
|
| ### With vec-db CLI |
|
|
| ```bash |
| # Clone the tool repo |
| git clone <vec-db-repo-url> |
| cd vec-db |
| VECDB_LANCE_DIR=/path/to/downloaded/lancedb npx tsx src/cli.ts search "robot grasping" |
| ``` |
