    "fmt"
    "log"

    "github.com/milvus-io/milvus/client/v2/milvusclient"
)

ctx, cancel := context.WithCancel(context.Background())
defer cancel()

milvusAddr := "127.0.0.1:19530"

cli, err := milvusclient.New(ctx, &milvusclient.ClientConfig{
    Address: milvusAddr,
})
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal("failed to connect to milvus server: ", err.Error())
}

defer cli.Close(ctx)

rs, err := cli.Query(ctx, milvusclient.NewQueryOption("quick_setup").
    WithFilter("emb_type == 3").
