|
|
|
|
Standalone command-line tool for creating, inspecting, querying, and managing RVF vector stores. Runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux with zero runtime dependencies.
|
|
|
|
## Install
|
|
|
|
### Pre-built binaries (recommended)
|
|
|

|
|
# macOS (Apple Silicon)
|
|

### Build from source
|
|
|
|
Requires [Rust](https://rustup.rs):
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cargo install --git https://github.com/ruvnet/ruvector.git rvf-cli
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or clone and build:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git clone https://github.com/ruvnet/ruvector.git
|
|
cd ruvector
|
|
cargo build -p rvf-cli --release
|
|
# Binary: target/release/rvf (or rvf.exe on Windows)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Quick start
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Create a 128-dimensional vector store with cosine distance
|
|
rvf create mydb.rvf --dimension 128 --metric cosine
|
|
|
|
# Ingest vectors from JSON
|
|
rvf ingest mydb.rvf --input vectors.json
|
|
|
|
# Search for nearest neighbors
|
|
rvf query mydb.rvf --vector "0.1,0.2,0.3,..." --k 10
|
|
|
|
# Check store status
|
|
rvf status mydb.rvf
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Running the examples
|
|
|
|
The repo includes 48 pre-built `.rvf` example stores in `examples/rvf/output/`. Use the CLI to inspect, query, and manipulate them:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# List all example stores
|
|
ls examples/rvf/output/*.rvf
|
|
|
|
# Inspect a store
|
|
rvf status examples/rvf/output/basic_store.rvf
|
|
rvf inspect examples/rvf/output/basic_store.rvf
|
|
|
|
# Query the semantic search example (500 vectors, 384 dimensions)
|
|
rvf status examples/rvf/output/semantic_search.rvf
|
|
rvf inspect examples/rvf/output/semantic_search.rvf --json
|
|
|
|
# Inspect the RAG pipeline store
|
|
rvf status examples/rvf/output/rag_pipeline.rvf
|
|
|
|
# Look at COW lineage (parent -> child)
|
|
rvf inspect examples/rvf/output/lineage_parent.rvf
|
|
rvf inspect examples/rvf/output/lineage_child.rvf
|
|
|
|
# Check financial signals store
|
|
rvf status examples/rvf/output/financial_signals.rvf
|
|
|
|
# View the compacted store
|
|
rvf status examples/rvf/output/compacted.rvf
|
|
|
|
# Inspect agent memory store
|
|
rvf inspect examples/rvf/output/agent_memory.rvf
|
|
|
|
# View all stores at once (JSON)
|
|
for f in examples/rvf/output/*.rvf; do
|
|
echo "--- $(basename $f) ---"
|
|
rvf status "$f" 2>/dev/null
|
|
done
|
|
```
|
|
|

```
|
|
|
|
Options:
|
|
- `-d, --dimension` — Vector dimensionality (required)

|
|
- `-p, --profile` — Hardware profile 0-3 (default: `0`)
|
|
- `--json` — Output as JSON
|
|
|
