Milvus is an open-source vector database that suits AI applications of every size, from running a demo chatbot in a Jupyter notebook to building web-scale search that serves billions of users.
The TypeScript SDK loads the Milvus client lazily. Install it alongside mem0ai when you use this provider:
npm install @zilliz/milvus2-sdk-node
config = { "vector_store": { "provider": "milvus", "config": { "collection_name": "test", "embedding_model_dims": 1536, "url": "127.0.0.1", "token": "8e4b8ca8cf2c67", "db_name": "my_database", } } }
m = Memory.from_config(config) messages = [ {"role": "user", "content": "I'm planning to watch a movie tonight. Any recommendations?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "How about thriller movies? They can be quite engaging."}, {"role": "user", "content": "I’m not a big fan of thriller movies but I love sci-fi movies."}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Got it! I'll avoid thriller recommendations and suggest sci-fi movies in the future."} ] m.add(messages, user_id="alice", metadata={"category": "movies"})
```typescript TypeScript
import { Memory } from 'mem0ai/oss';
const config = {
vectorStore: {
provider: 'milvus',
config: {
collectionName: 'test',
embeddingModelDims: 1536,
url: 'http://localhost:19530',
token: '8e4b8ca8cf2c67',
dbName: 'my_database',
},
},
};
const memory = new Memory(config);
const messages = [
{ role: "user", content: "I'm planning to watch a movie tonight. Any recommendations?" },
{ role: "assistant", content: "How about thriller movies? They can be quite engaging." },
{ role: "user", content: "I'm not a big fan of thriller movies but I love sci-fi movies." },
{ role: "assistant", content: "Got it! I'll avoid thriller recommendations and suggest sci-fi movies in the future." },
];
await memory.add(messages, { userId: "alice", metadata: { category: "movies" } });
