Error using nodejs to create vector search index on mongodb 7

[databloom]

I'm porting a RAG pipeline from GenAI-Showcase that was using Atlas to a mongdb local instance to the LLM.

Following https://www.mongodb.com/docs/compass/current/indexes/create-vector-search-index/, I installed node >16.4 and npm mongodb module but it appears that the installed mongodb module is missing a createSearchIndexes context.

Does mongodb 7.0 support vector search index definition ? Is Atlas your only offering that supports vector search ?

Hello @databloom ,

At the moment only Atlas support the search indexes. Having said that, in the near future it will be available in community and enterprise, stay tuned.

If you just want to test out this notebook you can use a local atlas deployment for testing:

You can also use:

docker run -p 27017:27017 mongodb/mongodb-atlas-local
