chroma_create_collection
Create a new Chroma collection with configurable HNSW parameters, including distance functions, construction, and search settings, for efficient vector search and data management.
Instructions
Create a new Chroma collection with configurable HNSW parameters.
Args:
collection_name: Name of the collection to create
space: Distance function used in HNSW index. Options: 'l2', 'ip', 'cosine'
ef_construction: Size of the dynamic candidate list for constructing the HNSW graph
ef_search: Size of the dynamic candidate list for searching the HNSW graph
max_neighbors: Maximum number of neighbors to consider during HNSW graph construction
num_threads: Number of threads to use during HNSW construction
batch_size: Number of elements to batch together during index construction
sync_threshold: Number of elements to process before syncing index to disk
resize_factor: Factor to resize the index by when it's full
embedding_function_name: Name of the embedding function to use. Options: 'default', 'cohere', 'openai', 'jina', 'voyageai', 'ollama', 'roboflow'
metadata: Optional metadata dict to add to the collection
