Installation

You should not install this package directly. Instead, install the main package:

npm install ruvector-core

The correct platform-specific package will be automatically installed based on your system.

System Requirements

• Operating System: Windows 10 (1809+) or Windows 11, Windows Server 2019+
• Architecture: x86_64 (64-bit)
• Node.js: 18.0.0 or higher
• Visual C++ Runtime: Automatically included with Node.js

Compatibility

This package is compatible with:

• Windows 10 (version 1809 or later)
• Windows 11 (all versions)
• Windows Server 2019 and newer
• Most Windows development environments

Note: Windows ARM64 is not currently supported.

What's Inside

This package contains:

• ruvector.node - Native binary module compiled from Rust with MSVC
• index.js - Module loader with error handling
• Full HNSW indexing implementation
• SIMD-optimized vector operations (AVX2, SSE4.2)
• Multi-threaded async operations via Tokio

Performance

When running on Windows x64 systems, you can expect:

• 50,000+ vector inserts per second
• 10,000+ searches per second (k=10)
• ~50 bytes memory per 128-dim vector
• Sub-millisecond latency for most operations
• Optimized for Intel/AMD AVX2 SIMD instructions

Building from Source

If you need to rebuild the native module:

Prerequisites

1. Install Visual Studio 2022 (or 2019) with "Desktop development with C++" workload
2. Install Rust: https://rustup.rs/
3. Open "x64 Native Tools Command Prompt for VS 2022"

Build Steps

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/ruvnet/ruvector.git
cd ruvector

# Build for Windows x64
cd npm\packages\core
npm run build:napi -- --target x86_64-pc-windows-msvc

Troubleshooting

Module Not Found Error

If you see "Cannot find module 'ruvector-core-win32-x64-msvc'":

1. Verify you're on Windows 64-bit: wmic os get osarchitecture should show "64-bit"
2. Reinstall with optional dependencies: npm install --include=optional ruvector-core
3. Check Node.js version: node --version should be 18.0.0 or higher

DLL Loading Issues

If the module fails to load with DLL errors:

1. Install Visual C++ Redistributable:

   • Download from: https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x64.exe
   • Node.js usually includes this, but manual install may be needed

2. Check Windows Updates:

   • Ensure Windows is up to date
   • Some MSVC runtimes come through Windows Update

3. Verify Node.js Installation:

   • Reinstall Node.js from nodejs.org
   • Use the Windows Installer (.msi) version

Long Path Issues

If you encounter "path too long" errors:

1. Enable Long Paths in Windows:

   # Run PowerShell as Administrator
   New-ItemProperty -Path "HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem" -Name "LongPathsEnabled" -Value 1 -PropertyType DWORD -Force
   

2. Or use shorter paths:

   • Install Node modules closer to drive root (e.g., C:\projects\)

Antivirus False Positives

Some antivirus software may flag native .node files:

• Add an exception for node_modules\ruvector-core-win32-x64-msvc\
• Or temporarily disable real-time scanning during npm install

WSL2 (Windows Subsystem for Linux)

If you're using WSL2:

• Use the Linux packages instead (ruvector-core-linux-x64-gnu)
• This Windows package is for native Windows Node.js only
