```typescript
new MilvusClient({
  address: string;              // Required. "host:port" or "https://host:port"
  token?: string;               // Auth token (username:password or API key)
  username?: string;            // Username for auth
  password?: string;            // Password for auth
  ssl?: boolean;                // Enable SSL/TLS

    min?: number;               // Min connections (default: 2)
  };
});
```

---

### Data Operations

#### insert

Insert rows into a collection.

```typescript
await client.insert({
  collection_name: string;
  data: Record<string, any>[];      // Array of row objects
  partition_name?: string;
});
// Returns: { succ_index: number[], err_index: number[], IDs: string[] | number[], ... }
```

#### upsert

Insert or update rows (matched by primary key).

```typescript
await client.upsert({
  collection_name: string;
  data: Record<string, any>[];
  partition_name?: string;
  partial_update?: boolean;
  field_ops?: Array<{
    field_name: string;
    op: 'REPLACE' | 'ARRAY_APPEND' | 'ARRAY_REMOVE';
  }>;
});
```

Partial array upsert can append to or remove from existing Array fields:

```typescript
import { FieldPartialUpdateOpType } from '@zilliz/milvus2-sdk-node';

await client.upsert({
  collection_name: 'articles',
  data: [{ id: 1, tags: ['featured'] }],
  field_ops: [
    { field_name: 'tags', op: FieldPartialUpdateOpType.ARRAY_APPEND },
  ],
});
```

#### delete

Delete rows by filter expression or primary key IDs.

```typescript
// By filter
await client.delete({
  collection_name: 'articles',
  filter: 'age > 18',
});

// By IDs
await client.delete({
  collection_name: 'articles',
  ids: [1, 2, 3],
});
```

#### search

Vector similarity search.

```typescript
const results = await client.search({
  collection_name: string;
  data?: number[][] | number[]; // Query vector(s), not required when ids is provided
  ids?: (string | number)[];    // Primary key IDs for Search By PK
  limit?: number;               // Top-K results (default: 100)
  output_fields?: string[];     // Fields to return
  filter?: string;              // Scalar filter expression
  metric_type?: MetricType;     // Distance metric
  params?: {                    // Index-specific search params
    ef?: number;                // HNSW ef (search width)
    nprobe?: number;            // IVF nprobe
    radius?: number;            // Range search radius
    range_filter?: number;      // Range search filter
  };
  consistency_level?: ConsistencyLevelEnum;
  partition_names?: string[];
  group_by_field?: string;      // Group results by field
});
// Returns: { results: [{ id, score, ...output_fields }], ... }
```

Search by primary key IDs without providing query vectors:

```typescript
const results = await client.search({
  collection_name: 'articles',
  ids: [1, 2, 3],
  output_fields: ['title', 'category'],
});
```

Search aggregation supports bucket metrics, top hits, and nested buckets.

```typescript
const results = await client.search({
  collection_name: 'products',
  data: [0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4],
  output_fields: ['category', 'brand', 'price'],
  search_aggregation: {
    fields: ['category'],
    size: 5,
    metrics: {
      item_count: { op: 'count', field_name: '*' },
      avg_price: { op: 'avg', field_name: 'price' },
    },
    order: [{ key: 'avg_price', direction: 'desc' }],
    top_hits: {
      size: 2,
      sort: [{ field_name: 'price', direction: 'asc' }],
    },
    sub_aggregation: {
      fields: ['brand'],
      size: 3,
    },
  },
});

// A single query vector returns AggregationBucket[].
// Multiple query vectors return AggregationBucket[][].
console.log(results.agg_buckets);
```

#### query

Query rows with scalar filter expression.

```typescript
const results = await client.query({
  collection_name: string;
  filter: string;               // Boolean expression, e.g. 'age > 18 AND status == "active"'
  output_fields?: string[];     // Fields to return (default: all)
  limit?: number;
  offset?: number;
  group_by_fields?: string[];   // Scalar fields used to group aggregation results
  consistency_level?: ConsistencyLevelEnum;
  partition_names?: string[];
});
// Returns: { data: Record<string, any>[] }
```

Aggregation functions are specified in `output_fields`. The supported functions
are `count`, `min`, `max`, `sum`, and `avg`.

```typescript
const results = await client.query({
  collection_name: 'sales',
  filter: 'price > 0',
  group_by_fields: ['category'],
  output_fields: [
    'category',
    'count(price)',
    'min(price)',
    'max(price)',
    'sum(price)',
    'avg(price)',
  ],
});
```

#### get

Get rows by primary key IDs.

```typescript
const results = await client.get({
  collection_name: string;
  ids: (string | number)[];
  output_fields?: string[];
});
```

#### count

Count rows matching a filter.

```typescript
const result = await client.count({
  collection_name: string;
  filter?: string;
});
// Returns: { data: number }
```

#### searchIterator

Paginated vector search using async iterator.

```typescript
const iterator = await client.searchIterator({
  collection_name: string;
  data: number[];
  batchSize: number;
  limit: number;
  output_fields?: string[];
  filter?: string;
  expr?: string;
});

for await (const batch of iterator) {
  console.log(batch);  // Array of results per batch
}
```

#### queryIterator

Paginated query using async iterator.

```typescript
const iterator = await client.queryIterator({
  collection_name: string;
  filter?: string;
  batchSize: number;
  limit: number;
  output_fields?: string[];
  expr?: string;
});

for await (const batch of iterator) {
  console.log(batch);
}
```

#### hybridSearch

Multi-vector search combining results from multiple vector fields with reranking.

```typescript
const results = await client.hybridSearch({
  collection_name: string;
  rerank: WeightedReranker | RRFReranker;  // Reranking strategy
  requests: Array<{
    data: number[][];
    anns_field: string;

await client.getCompactionState({ compactionID });
```

```

---

## Filter Expressions

Used in `search({ filter })`, `query({ filter })`, `delete({ filter })`.

```
# Comparison
age > 18
price <= 99.9
status == "active"
name != "test"

# Logical operators
age > 18 AND status == "active"
price < 10 OR price > 100
NOT (status == "deleted")

# IN operator
id IN [1, 2, 3]
category IN ["books", "music"]

# String matching
title LIKE "hello%"         # Starts with "hello"
title LIKE "%world"         # Ends with "world"

# Array operations
ARRAY_CONTAINS(tags, "ai")
ARRAY_LENGTH(tags) > 3

# JSON field access
metadata["key"] == "value"
metadata["nested"]["field"] > 10

# Template expressions (parameterized)
await client.query({
  collection_name: 'test',
  filter: 'age > {min_age}',
  filter_params: { min_age: 18 },
});
```

## HTTP Client

For environments where gRPC is not available (Cloudflare Workers, Vercel Edge, AWS Lambda).

```typescript
import { HttpClient } from '@zilliz/milvus2-sdk-node';

const client = new HttpClient({
  endpoint: 'localhost:19530',    // or Zilliz Cloud endpoint
  username: 'root',               // optional
  password: 'milvus',             // optional
  token: 'your-api-key',          // optional (for Zilliz Cloud)
  database: 'default',            // optional
  timeout: 60000,                 // optional, ms
});

// Same API surface as MilvusClient for data operations
await client.createCollection({ ... });
await client.insert({ ... });
await client.search({ ... });
await client.query({ ... });
```

---

## Error Handling

```typescript
import { ErrorCode } from '@zilliz/milvus2-sdk-node';

try {
  const res = await client.createCollection({ ... });
  if (res.error_code !== ErrorCode.SUCCESS) {
    console.error('Milvus error:', res.reason);
  }
} catch (err) {
  console.error('Connection/transport error:', err.message);
}
```

## Common Patterns

### Hybrid Search (vector + scalar filter)

```typescript
const results = await client.search({
  collection_name: 'products',
  data: [queryVector],
  limit: 20,
  filter: 'category == "electronics" AND price < 500',
  output_fields: ['name', 'price', 'category'],
});
```

### Dynamic Fields

```typescript
// Enable dynamic fields on collection
await client.createCollection({
  collection_name: 'flexible',
  fields: [
    { name: 'id', data_type: DataType.Int64, is_primary_key: true, autoID: true },
    { name: 'vector', data_type: DataType.FloatVector, dim: 128 },
  ],
  enable_dynamic_field: true,
});

await client.loadCollection({ collection_name: 'flexible' });

// Insert with arbitrary fields — extra fields stored dynamically
await client.insert({
  collection_name: 'flexible',
  data: [
    { vector: [...], color: 'red', score: 0.95 },
    { vector: [...], color: 'blue', tags: ['a', 'b'] },
  ],
});

// Query dynamic fields
await client.query({
  collection_name: 'flexible',
  filter: 'color == "red"',
  output_fields: ['color', 'score'],
});
```

### Sparse Vector Search (e.g. BM25)

```typescript
await client.createCollection({
  collection_name: 'docs',
  fields: [
    { name: 'id', data_type: DataType.Int64, is_primary_key: true, autoID: true },
    { name: 'sparse_vector', data_type: DataType.SparseFloatVector },
  ],
});

await client.insert({
  collection_name: 'docs',
  data: [
    { sparse_vector: { 0: 0.5, 10: 0.3, 200: 0.8 } },   // dict format
    { sparse_vector: { 1: 0.1, 50: 0.9 } },
  ],
});

await client.search({
  collection_name: 'docs',
  data: [{ 0: 0.5, 10: 0.3 }],
  anns_field: 'sparse_vector',
  limit: 10,
});
```

### Partition Key (auto-routing)

```typescript
await client.createCollection({
  collection_name: 'multi_tenant',
  fields: [
    { name: 'id', data_type: DataType.Int64, is_primary_key: true, autoID: true },
    { name: 'tenant', data_type: DataType.VarChar, max_length: 64, is_partition_key: true },
    { name: 'vector', data_type: DataType.FloatVector, dim: 128 },
  ],
  num_partitions: 16,
});

// Milvus automatically routes by partition key
await client.search({
  collection_name: 'multi_tenant',
  data: [queryVector],
  filter: 'tenant == "user_123"',   // Scoped to partition
  limit: 10,
});
```
