`resolve_citations` documented the behaviour it now rejects: a shared chunk id
resolving to whichever result came last.
The storage page ran two embedding checks together as if the second explained
the first. They are separate: each database against the configuration on open,
and the databases in a selection against each other, which raises in read-only
mode too and does not apply to full-text search.
`several` becomes `multiple` where it names the feature, matching the docs and
`covers_multiple`.
lancedb.databases, the sources argument and the --database selector had no
documentation. Adds a Several Databases section to the storage
configuration page covering the name-to-location map, its mutual
exclusion with uri, the shared embedding configuration the set requires,
and which commands cover the set against which work on one. Adds a
Searching Several Databases section to the Python API page, --database to
the CLI's global options, the key to the sample configuration, and one
README feature line.
search.limit was documented as 10 in three places while the default is 5.
The documented way to disable reranking, provider: "", is a valid
ModelConfig, so it raised "Unknown reranking provider" — disabling means
omitting reranking.model or setting it to null. The inline provider list
named four of the six rerankers. prompts.picture_description: null fails
validation, since the field is a non-optional str.
storage.data_dir: "" coerced to Path("") — the working directory — while two
doc pages promise the platform default and soliplex's example config relies
on it. Empty or whitespace now resolves to the platform directory; an
explicit "." is still honoured, so a config that wants the working directory
says so.
Three tests keep this from drifting again: every fenced yaml block in the
docs validates against AppConfig, every value in the complete example either
equals its default or is listed as a deliberate deviation, and empty
data_dir resolves to the platform default.
init-config's test reimplemented the command body instead of invoking it,
which is why the command carried a coverage pragma. It now goes through
CliRunner, with the refuse-to-overwrite guard covered too.
reranking.multimodal (vllm provider only) attaches picture bytes to
synthetic picture chunks before rerank; VLLMReranker sends them as
content-parts documents (base64 data URI + description text) in the
same /v1/rerank request as plain text documents.
Context expansion is now automatic and structure-aware. For structured
documents, expands within the section containing the match. For sections
that exceed the budget or are too small, expands item-by-item outward
skipping noise labels. Unstructured documents use budget-based outward
expansion. Results sorted by relevance score.
