Vantage Discovery Python SDK¶
The Vantage Discovery Python SDK provides an easy-to-use interface to interact with the Vantage vector database, enabling developers to seamlessly integrate vector search and collection management capabilities into their Python applications.
Installation¶
To install the Vantage Python SDK, run the following command:
pip install vantage-sdk
Quickstart¶
To get started with the Vantage Python SDK, you'll need to set up your Vantage account and obtain your account ID and Vantage API key. Once you have your ID and key, you can initialize the VantageClient which you can then use to manage your account, collections and keys and perform searches.
from vantage_sdk import VantageClient
# Initialize the VantageClient with your Vantage API key and Account ID
vantage_client = VantageClient.using_vantage_api_key(
vantage_api_key='YOUR_VANTAGE_API_KEY',
account_id='YOUR_ACCOUNT_ID'
)
# Now you can use the client to manage collections, documents, and perform searches
Overview¶
The Vantage Discovery Python SDK is divided into several modules, allowing you to manage account, collections, and API keys, as well as perform various types of searches.
Key Features¶
- Collection Management: Easily create, update, list, and delete collections.
- Documents Upload: Upload your data easily to your collections.
- Search: Perform semantic, embedding and "more like this/these" searches within your collections.
- LLM Keys Management: Keep your LLM provider secrets safe and up-to-date.
🔍 Examples¶
Creating a Collection¶
To create a new collection for storing documents, specify the collection ID, the dimension of the embeddings, and the LLM (language learning model) details. Here, we use text-embedding-ada-002
from OpenAI with the necessary secret key.
📚 Visit management-api documentation for more details.
collection = OpenAICollection(
collection_id="my-collection",
embeddings_dimension=1536,
llm="text-embedding-ada-002",
llm_secret="YOUR_OPENAI_SECRET_KEY",
)
created_collection = vantage_client.create_collection(collection=collection)
print(f"Created collection: {created_collection.collection_name}")
Uploading Documents¶
To upload documents to your collection, provide a list of document IDs and corresponding text. Each document is wrapped in a VantageManagedEmbeddingsDocument
object. This example demonstrates uploading a batch of documents.
📚 Visit management-api documentation for more details.
ids = [
"1",
"2",
"3",
"4",
]
texts = [
"First text",
"Second text",
"Third text",
"Fourth text",
]
documents = [
VantageManagedEmbeddingsDocument(text=text, id=id)
for id, text in zip(ids, texts)
]
instance.upsert_documents(
collection_id="my-collection",
documents=documents,
)
Performing a Search¶
To perform a semantic search within your collection, specify the text you want to find similar documents for. This example retrieves documents similar to the provided text, printing out each document's ID and its similarity score.
📚 Visit search-api documentation for more details.
search_result = vantage_client.semantic_search(
text="Find documents similar to this text",
collection_id="my-collection"
)
for result in search_result.results:
print(result.id, result.score)
