ChromaDB

Here is a list of all available ChromaDB procedures, note that the list and the signature procedures are consistent with the others, like the Qdrant ones:

name description

apoc.vectordb.chroma.createCollection(hostOrKey, collection, similarity, size, $config)

Creates a collection, with the name specified in the 2nd parameter, and with the specified similarity and size. The default endpoint is <hostOrKey param>/api/v1/collections.

apoc.vectordb.chroma.deleteCollection(hostOrKey, collection, $config)

Deletes a collection with the name specified in the 2nd parameter. The default endpoint is <hostOrKey param>/api/v1/collections/<collection param>.

apoc.vectordb.chroma.upsert(hostOrKey, collection, vectors, $config)

Upserts, in the collection with the name specified in the 2nd parameter, the vectors [{id: 'id', vector: '<vectorDb>', medatada: '<metadata>'}]. The default endpoint is <hostOrKey param>/api/v1/collections/<collection param>/upsert.

apoc.vectordb.chroma.delete(hostOrKey, collection, ids, $config)

Deletes the vectors with the specified ids. The default endpoint is <hostOrKey param>/api/v1/collections/<collection param>/delete.

apoc.vectordb.chroma.get(hostOrKey, collection, ids, $config)

Gets the vectors with the specified ids. The default endpoint is <hostOrKey param>/api/v1/collections/<collection param>/get.

apoc.vectordb.chroma.query(hostOrKey, collection, vector, filter, limit, $config)

Retrieve closest vectors from the defined vector, limit of results, in the collection with the name specified in the 2nd parameter. The default endpoint is <hostOrKey param>/api/v1/collections/<collection param>/query.

apoc.vectordb.chroma.getAndUpdate(hostOrKey, collection, ids, $config)

Gets the vectors with the specified ids, and optionally creates/updates neo4j entities. The default endpoint is <hostOrKey param>/api/v1/collections/<collection param>/get.

apoc.vectordb.chroma.queryAndUpdate(hostOrKey, collection, vector, filter, limit, $config)

Retrieve closest vectors from the defined vector, limit of results, in the collection with the name specified in the 2nd parameter, and optionally creates/updates neo4j entities. The default endpoint is <hostOrKey param>/api/v1/collections/<collection param>/query.

where the 1st parameter can be a key defined by the apoc config apoc.chroma.<key>.host=myHost. With hostOrKey=null, the default is 'http://localhost:8000'.

Examples

To optimize performances, we can choose what to YIELD with the apoc.vectordb.chroma.query and the apoc.vectordb.chroma.get procedures. For example, by executing a CALL apoc.vectordb.chroma.query(…​) YIELD metadata, score, id, the RestAPI request will have an {"include": ["metadatas", "documents", "distances"]}, so that we do not return the other values that we do not need.

In the same way as other procedures, we can define a mapping, to fetch the associated nodes and relationships and optionally create them, by leveraging the vector metadata. For example:

Query vectors
CALL apoc.vectordb.chroma.query($host, '<collection_id>',
    [0.2, 0.1, 0.9, 0.7],
    {},
    5,
    { mapping: {
            embeddingKey: "vect",
            nodeLabel: "Test",
            entityKey: "myId",
            metadataKey: "foo"
        }
    })
Delete vectors (it leverages this API)
CALL apoc.vectordb.chroma.delete($host, '<collection_id>', [1,2], {<optional config>})
