Key fields of the JSON object:
- "data_source": contains the address and login methods of MinIO/S3. If the address and login methods are not provided, Milvus will use its MinIO/S3 configurations.
- "internal_data": reserved field for collection clone and database clone, not available in the first stage. It requires another API export().
- "external_data": for importing data from user's files. Let Tell datanode where to read the data files and how to parse them.
How to pass this parameter in different situations:
Assume there is a collection named "TEST" with these fields:
| Code Block |
|---|
{"uid":INT64, "year":INT32, "age":INT8, "embedding":FLOAT_VECTOR} |
For the following situations:
User has some JSON files store data with the row-based format: file_1.json, file_2.json.
Code Block { "data": { "rows": [ {"id": 1, "year": 2021, "vector": [1.0, 1.1, 1.2]}, {"id": 2, "year": 2022, "vector": [2.0, 2.1, 2.2]}, {"id": 3, "year": 2023, "vector": [3.0, 3.1, 3.2]} ] } }
The "options" will be like this:
Code Block { "data_source": { "type": "Minio", "address": "localhost:9000", "accesskey_id": "minioadmin", "accesskey_secret": "minioadmin", "use_ssl": false, "bucket_name": "mybucket" }, "external_data": { "target_collection": "TEST", "files": [ { "file": file_1.json, "type": "row_based", "fields_mapping": { "data.rows.id": "uid", "data.rows.year": "year", "data.rows.vector": "embedding", } }, { "file": file_2.json, "type": "row_based", "fields_mapping": { "data.rows.id": "uid", "data.rows.year": "year", "data.rows.vector": "embedding", } } ] "default_fields": { "age": 0 }, } }User has some JSON files store data with the column-based format: file_1.json, file_2.json.
Code Block { "table": { "columns": [ "id": [1, 2, 3], "year": [2021, 2022, 2023], "vector": [ [1.0, 1.1, 1.2], [2.0, 2.1, 2.2], [3.0, 3.1, 3.2] ] ] } }The "options" will be like this:
Wiki Markup { "data_source": { "type": "Minio", "address": "localhost:9000", "accesskey_id": "minioadmin", "accesskey_secret": "minioadmin", "use_ssl": false, "bucket_name": "mybucket" }, "external_data": { "target_collection": "TEST", "files": [ { "file": file_1.json, "type": "column_based", "fields_mapping": { "data.columns.id": "uid", "data.columns.year": "year", "data.columns.vector": "embedding", } }, { "file": file_2.json, "type": "column_based", "fields_mapping": { "data.columns.id": "uid", "data.columns.year": "year", "data.columns.vector": "embedding", } } ] "default_fields": { "age": 0 }, } }- User has some a JSON file store data with the column-based format: file_1.json, and a Numpy file store vectors data: file_2.npy
Note: for hybrid format files, we only allow inputting a pair of files to reduce the complexity.
The file_1.json:
