AddFunctionField()

Add a BM25 sparse-vector or MinHash binary-vector function-backed field to an existing collection.

Status AddFunctionField(const AddFunctionFieldRequest& request)

Request Syntax

auto request = AddFunctionFieldRequest()
    .WithDatabaseName(db_name)
    .WithCollectionName(collection_name)
    .WithField(field_schema)
    .WithFunction(function)
    .WithIndex(index_desc);

REQUEST METHODS:

• WithDatabaseName(const std::string& db_name)

  Set target db name, use default database if it is empty.

• WithCollectionName(const std::string& collection_name)

  Set name of the collection.

• WithField(FieldSchema&& field_schema)

  Set the schema of the output field produced by the function.

• WithFunction(const FunctionPtr& function)

  Set the function that backs the field (for example, a BM25 tokenizer).

• WithIndex(IndexDesc&& index)

  Set the index descriptor bound to the new field.

RETURNS:

Status

Returns a status indicating whether the operation succeeded.

ERROR HANDLING:

• std::exception

  Thrown when request construction, transport, or response processing fails. Inspect the exception message or returned Status for failure details.

Example

Demonstrates AddFunctionField() with the C++ SDK.

auto client = milvus::MilvusClientV2::Create();
milvus::ConnectParam connect_param{"http://localhost:19530", "root:Milvus"};
util::CheckStatus(client->Connect(connect_param));

auto request = milvus::AddFunctionFieldRequest();
util::CheckStatus(client->AddFunctionField(request));
