postvec

Appearance

Enable a column (CLI) ​

SQL: enable(). The CLI confirms the model is served and that the worker is healthy after the call.

1. Confirm the model ​

bash
postvec model ls

Expected

The model you will pass to enable() is listed and loaded (embedded) or advertised by postvec-server (remote). MiniLM is sentence-transformers-all-minilm-l6-v2.

On remote mode, inventory is on the server: models on postvec-server.

2. After enable() ​

bash
sudo postvec doctor --database app --deep

Expected

doctor exits 0. Worker heartbeat advances. The enabled column appears in the SQL status() view (pending_jobs returns to 0 as vectors fill).

Inside a container:

bash
docker exec postvec postvec-healthcheck
docker exec -u postgres postvec \
  postvec doctor \
  --database-url 'postgresql:///app?host=/var/run/postgresql' \
  --database app --deep
