`langchain_community.vectorstores.supabase`.SupabaseVectorStore¶

class langchain_community.vectorstores.supabase.SupabaseVectorStore(client: supabase.client.Client, embedding: Embeddings, table_name: str, chunk_size: int = 500, query_name: Union[str, None] = None)[source]¶

Supabase Postgres vector store.

It assumes you have the pgvector extension installed and a match_documents (or similar) function. For more details: https://integrations.langchain.com/vectorstores?integration_name=SupabaseVectorStore

You can implement your own match_documents function in order to limit the search space to a subset of documents based on your own authorization or business logic.

Note that the Supabase Python client does not yet support async operations.

If you’d like to use max_marginal_relevance_search, please review the instructions below on modifying the match_documents function to return matched embeddings.

Examples:

from langchain_community.embeddings.openai import OpenAIEmbeddings
from langchain_core.documents import Document
from langchain_community.vectorstores import SupabaseVectorStore
from supabase.client import create_client

docs = [
    Document(page_content="foo", metadata={"id": 1}),
]
embeddings = OpenAIEmbeddings()
supabase_client = create_client("my_supabase_url", "my_supabase_key")
vector_store = SupabaseVectorStore.from_documents(
    docs,
    embeddings,
    client=supabase_client,
    table_name="documents",
    query_name="match_documents",
    chunk_size=500,
)

To load from an existing table:

from langchain_community.embeddings.openai import OpenAIEmbeddings
from langchain_community.vectorstores import SupabaseVectorStore
from supabase.client import create_client


embeddings = OpenAIEmbeddings()
supabase_client = create_client("my_supabase_url", "my_supabase_key")
vector_store = SupabaseVectorStore(
    client=supabase_client,
    embedding=embeddings,
    table_name="documents",
    query_name="match_documents",
)

Initialize with supabase client.
