Class: HnswlibVectorStore

Defined in: src/batteries/vector/hnswlib/index.ts:74

Abstract base shared by every bundled vector adapter. It implements the cross-cutting surface (query/schema/transaction/asCallable/encode) on top of the small set of backend-specific abstract methods each adapter fills in (connect, executeSearch, createCollection, …). Concrete adapters inherit the doc comments below unless they override them.

Parameters

Parameter	Type
options	BaseVectorStoreOptions

Returns

HnswlibVectorStore

Inherited from

BaseVectorStore.constructor

Accessors

schema

Get Signature

get schema(): VectorSchemaBuilder;

Defined in: src/batteries/vector/contract.ts:109

Schema builder bound to this store, for creating/dropping/migrating collections.

Returns

VectorSchemaBuilder

Inherited from

BaseVectorStore.schema

Methods

asCallable()

asCallable(): CallableVectorStore;

Defined in: src/batteries/vector/contract.ts:123

Wrap this store in a callable proxy so store('collection') is shorthand for store.query('collection'), while all other methods/properties pass through unchanged.

Returns

CallableVectorStore

Inherited from

BaseVectorStore.asCallable

---

close()

close(): Promise<void>;

Defined in: src/batteries/vector/hnswlib/index.ts:105

Release the backing connection and any held resources.

Returns

Promise<void>

Overrides

BaseVectorStore.close

---

connect()

connect(): Promise<void>;

Defined in: src/batteries/vector/hnswlib/index.ts:100

Establish the backing connection (open clients, pools, sockets). Idempotent where the driver allows.

Returns

Promise<void>

Overrides

BaseVectorStore.connect

---

createCollection()

createCollection(spec: CollectionSpec, ifNotExists: boolean): Promise<void>;

Defined in: src/batteries/vector/hnswlib/index.ts:126

Create a collection from spec; a no-op when ifNotExists and it already exists.

Parameters

Parameter	Type
spec	CollectionSpec
ifNotExists	boolean

Returns

Promise<void>

Overrides

BaseVectorStore.createCollection

---

dropCollection()

dropCollection(collection: string, ifExists: boolean): Promise<void>;

Defined in: src/batteries/vector/hnswlib/index.ts:150

Drop a collection; a no-op when ifExists and it is absent.

Parameters

Parameter	Type
collection	string
ifExists	boolean

Returns

Promise<void>

Overrides

BaseVectorStore.dropCollection

---

executeDelete()

executeDelete(plan: DeletePlan): Promise<void>;

Defined in: src/batteries/vector/hnswlib/index.ts:300

Execute a compiled delete plan.

Parameters

Parameter	Type
plan	DeletePlan

Returns

Promise<void>

Overrides

BaseVectorStore.executeDelete

---

executeSearch()

executeSearch(plan: SearchPlan): Promise<VectorMatch[]>;

Defined in: src/batteries/vector/hnswlib/index.ts:225

Execute a compiled search plan and return the matched records.

Parameters

Parameter	Type
plan	SearchPlan

Returns

Promise<VectorMatch[]>

Overrides

BaseVectorStore.executeSearch

---

executeUpsert()

executeUpsert(plan: UpsertPlan): Promise<void>;

Defined in: src/batteries/vector/hnswlib/index.ts:178

Execute a compiled upsert plan (insert-or-replace the given records).

Parameters

Parameter	Type
plan	UpsertPlan

Returns

Promise<void>

Overrides

BaseVectorStore.executeUpsert

---

hasCollection()

hasCollection(collection: string): Promise<boolean>;

Defined in: src/batteries/vector/hnswlib/index.ts:158

Whether a collection currently exists in the backend.

Parameters

Parameter	Type
collection	string

Returns

Promise<boolean>

Overrides

BaseVectorStore.hasCollection

---

isAvailable()

isAvailable(): boolean;

Defined in: src/batteries/vector/hnswlib/index.ts:96

Whether the backend's optional peer dependency is installed and the store is usable.

Returns

boolean

Overrides

BaseVectorStore.isAvailable

---

query()

query(collection: string): VectorQueryBuilder;

Defined in: src/batteries/vector/contract.ts:114

Open a VectorQueryBuilder scoped to collection (default top-K of 10).

Parameters

Parameter	Type
collection	string

Returns

VectorQueryBuilder

Inherited from

BaseVectorStore.query

---

renameCollection()

renameCollection(from: string, to: string): Promise<void>;

Defined in: src/batteries/vector/hnswlib/index.ts:162

Rename a collection from from to to.

Parameters

Parameter	Type
from	string
to	string

Returns

Promise<void>

Overrides

BaseVectorStore.renameCollection

---

transaction()

transaction(_fn: (tx: CallableVectorStore) => Promise<void>): Promise<void>;

Defined in: src/batteries/vector/contract.ts:104

Run fn inside a backend transaction. The base implementation rejects with E_VECTOR_STORE_TRANSACTIONS_UNSUPPORTED; adapters whose backend supports transactions override this.

Parameters

Parameter	Type
_fn	(tx: CallableVectorStore) => Promise<void>

Returns

Promise<void>

Inherited from

BaseVectorStore.transaction

---

isAvailable()

static isAvailable(): boolean;

Defined in: src/batteries/vector/hnswlib/index.ts:93

Static availability probe: whether this adapter's runtime driver can load in the current environment.

Returns

boolean
