 # Chroma-Hnswlib - fast approximate nearest neighbor search

+
+## Build & Release
+
+Wheels are automatically built and pushed to PyPI for multiple
+platforms via GitHub actions using the
+[cibuildwheel](https://github.com/pypa/cibuildwheel).
+
+The `Publish` Github Action is configured to run whenever a version
+tag (a tag string with three period-delimited numbers) is pushed. Is
+is necessary to ensure that the version number in `setup.py` has also
+been updated, or else the `Publish` action will fail.
+
+### Building AVX Extensions
+
+For maximum compatibility, the distributed wheels are not compiled to
+make use of Advanced Vector Extensions (AVX). If your hardware
+supports AVX, you may get better performance by recompiling this
+library on the machine on which it is intended to run.
+
+To force recompilation when installing, specify the `--no-binary
+chroma-hsnwlib` option to PIP when installing dependencies. This can
+be added to your `pip install` command, for example:
+
+```
+pip install -r requirements.txt --no-binary chroma-hnswlib
+```
+
+You can also put the `--no-binary` directive [in your requirements.txt](https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/cli/pip_install/#install-no-binary).
+
+If you've already installed dependencies, you must first uninstall
+`chroma-hsnwlib` using `pip uninstall chroma-hnswlib` to remove the
+precompiled version before reinstalling.
