FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Informations about the package embedding-sqlsrv-driver
x-laravel/embedding — SQL Server Driver
SQL Server 2025 / Azure SQL native vector driver for x-laravel/embedding.
How It Works
- Implements
SimilarityDriver— registers as thesqlsrvdriver, similarity search runs entirely in SQL Server usingVECTOR_DISTANCE('cosine', ...) - Implements
VectorStore— writes embeddings viaMERGE INTOwithCAST(? AS VECTOR(n)), reads via aCAST(vector AS NVARCHAR(MAX))global scope - Translates payload
filter:constraints to type-strictOPENJSONSQL against theembeddablestable
Requirements
- PHP ^8.3 +
ext-sqlsrv+ext-pdo_sqlsrv+ Microsoft ODBC Driver 18 - Laravel ^12.0 | ^13.0
x-laravel/embedding ^1.0- SQL Server 2025 or Azure SQL Database (native
VECTORtype required)
Installation
The SqlServerEmbeddingServiceProvider is auto-discovered and registers the sqlsrv driver automatically.
Setup
1. Configure x-laravel/embedding
Publish the config if you haven't already:
Set the similarity driver and database connection in config/embedding.php:
2. Create the tables
This driver ships its own SQL Server-native migrations that replace the default ones from x-laravel/embedding: embeddings with a VECTOR(n) column and embeddables with a native JSON payload column.
Publish and run the migrations (migrations are not loaded automatically — publish the driver migrations, not the core ones):
The published files are plain migrations in database/migrations/ — customise the DDL there if needed before running migrate.
Note: The native
VECTORandJSONtypes andVECTOR_DISTANCErequire SQL Server 2025 or Azure SQL Database. They are not available in SQL Server 2019/2022.
3. Model
Follow the standard x-laravel/embedding setup. No SQL Server-specific changes are needed on your models.
Usage
The driver is transparent — use the standard x-laravel/embedding API:
All methods set a similarity_score float attribute on each returned model.
Payload filtering
Models using #[EmbedPayload] can filter similarity searches at the database level. The driver translates filter: to a whereExists subquery with OPENJSON — every condition checks the JSON value type, and strings compare with a binary collation, so comparisons are type-strict (34 never matches "34") and case-sensitive:
Note:
pdo_sqlsrvreturns integer columns to PHP as strings. Add anintegercast to numeric payload fields on your models — otherwise a queued payload sync writes"34"instead of34after the DB round-trip, and type-strict filters stop matching.
