Chroma also provides a convenient wrapper around VoyageAI’s embedding API. This embedding function runs remotely on VoyageAI’s servers, and requires an API key. You can get an API key by signing up for an account at VoyageAI.

This embedding function relies on the voyageai python package, which you can install with pip install voyageai.

    import chromadb.utils.embedding_functions as embedding_functions
    voyageai_ef  = embedding_functions.VoyageAIEmbeddingFunction(api_key="YOUR_API_KEY",  model_name="voyage-3-large")
    voyageai_ef(input=["document1","document2"])
    ```

```typescript
    // npm install @chroma-core/voyageai

    import { VoyageAIEmbeddingFunction } from "@chroma-core/voyageai";

    const embedder = new VoyageAIEmbeddingFunction({
        apiKey: "apiKey",
        modelName: "model_name",
    });

    // use directly
    const embeddings = embedder.generate(["document1", "document2"]);

    // pass documents to query for .add and .query
    const collection = await client.createCollection({
        name: "name",
        embeddingFunction: embedder,
    });
    const collectionGet = await client.getCollection({
        name: "name",
        embeddingFunction: embedder,
    });
    ```

### Multilingual model example


  ```python
  voyageai_ef  = embedding_functions.VoyageAIEmbeddingFunction(
      api_key="YOUR_API_KEY",
      model_name="voyage-3-large"
  )

  multilingual_texts  = [
      'Hello from VoyageAI!', 'مرحباً من VoyageAI!!',
      'Hallo von VoyageAI!', 'Bonjour de VoyageAI!',
      '¡Hola desde VoyageAI!', 'Olá do VoyageAI!',
      'Ciao da VoyageAI!', '您好,来自 VoyageAI!',
      'कोहिअर से VoyageAI!'
  ]

  voyageai_ef(input=multilingual_texts)
import { VoyageAIEmbeddingFunction } from "chromadb";

const embedder = new VoyageAIEmbeddingFunction("apiKey", "voyage-3-large");

multilingual_texts = [
    "Hello from VoyageAI!",
    "مرحباً من VoyageAI!!",
    "Hallo von VoyageAI!",
    "Bonjour de VoyageAI!",
    "¡Hola desde VoyageAI!",
    "Olá do VoyageAI!",
    "Ciao da VoyageAI!",
    "您好,来自 VoyageAI!",
    "कोहिअर से VoyageAI!",
];

const embeddings = embedder.generate(multilingual_texts);
