MilvusClient()

This class serves as an initializer for a Milvus client instance. Upon successful connection to the Milvus instance, the client can execute various operations.

Example

import { MilvusClient } from "@zilliz/milvus2-sdk-node";

const milvusClient = new MilvusClient({
  address: "192.168.0.1:19530",
  ssl: false, // deprecated on `node sdk v2.2.12`+
  username: "optional",
  password: "optional",
});

Now you can use all methods of the client, like client.createCollection, client.createIndex, client.loadCollection, client.search to communicate with the Milvus server.

Parameters

ParametersDescriptionTypeExample
addressThe Milvus IP addressString‘192.168.0.1:19530’
ssl?SSL connection. It is false by default, if you are using Zilliz Cloud, set it to true.Booleanfalse
username?The username used to connect to MilvusStringmilvus

maxRetries?The number of retries for the grpc method, by default: 3Number3
retryDelay?The delay between attempts at retrying a failed grpc method in ms, by default: 30Number30
channelOptions?an optional configuration object that can be passed to a gRPC client when creating a channel to connect to a gRPC serverObject
tls?TLS configurationObject

TLS config object

ParametersDescriptionTypeExample
rootCertPathThe file path to the root certificate used for TLS/SSL connectionString‘/path/to/my/cert’
privateKeyPath?The file path to the private key used for SSL connectionBoolean‘/path/to/my/private_key’
certChainPath?The file path to the certificate chain used for TLS/SSL connectionString‘/path/to/my/cert/chain’
verifyOptions?Options for certificate verification during TLS/SSL connection (e.g., ‘verify_peer’)String
serverName?The server name used for certificate verification during TLS/SSL connectionString
