The community member is trying to reuse a locally persisted store and upload it into a running Weaviate instance. They have tried loading the DocumentStore and using VectorStoreIndex.from_documents(), but this would recreate the embeddings instead of using the local storage. The community member is asking if there is a way to directly push the local previously created store into Weaviate.
In the comments, a community member suggests a Discord conversation that may be helpful, but another community member indicates that the linked conversation does not answer the question of how to move/copy/load the contents of a locally persisted vector store into a previously empty Weaviate instance.
Another community member mentions that dosubot helped them with a similar issue on GitHub, but the specific solution is not provided.
Hello everyone! I am trying to reuse a locally persisted store and upload it into a running weaviate instance. What I currently did was to load the DocumentStore and use VectorStoreIndex.from_documents() but this would mean that the embeddings will be recreated, instead of just used from the local storage. Is there a chance to directly push the local previously created store it into weaviate? Context: We commit small persisted stores into version control and want to push those into a running vector store provider (like weaviate). Any idea? Thanks!
Unfortunatly I dont think so. It's still not clear to me how to move/copy/load the contents of a locally persisted vector store into a previously empty weaviate instance... The linked conversation doesn't answer that :/
