Available Index Stores

• PostgresIndexStore: A PostgreSQL index store, , see PostgreSQL Storage.

Check the vectorstores Github for the most up to date overview of integrations.

Using PostgreSQL as Index Store

npm

npm i llamaindex @vectorstores/postgres

pnpm

pnpm add llamaindex @vectorstores/postgres

yarn

yarn add llamaindex @vectorstores/postgres

bun

bun add llamaindex @vectorstores/postgres

You can configure the schemaName, tableName, namespace, and connectionString. If a connectionString is not provided, it will use the environment variables PGHOST, PGUSER, PGPASSWORD, PGDATABASE and PGPORT.

import { Document, VectorStoreIndex, storageContextFromDefaults } from "@vectorstores/core";
import { PostgresIndexStore } from "@vectorstores/postgres";

const storageContext = await storageContextFromDefaults({
  indexStore: new PostgresIndexStore(),
});
