+# pgvector-c
+
+[pgvector](https://github.com/pgvector/pgvector) examples for C
+
+Supports [libpq](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/libpq.html)
+
+[![Build Status](https://github.com/pgvector/pgvector-c/workflows/build/badge.svg?branch=master)](https://github.com/pgvector/pgvector-c/actions)
+
+## Getting Started
+
+Follow the instructions for your database library:
+
+- [libpq](#libpq)
+
+## libpq
+
+Enable the extension
+
+```c
+PGresult *res = PQexec(conn, "CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS vector");
+```
+
+Create a table
+
+```c
+PGresult *res = PQexec(conn, "CREATE TABLE items (id bigserial PRIMARY KEY, embedding vector(3))");
+```
+
+Insert vectors
+
+```c
+const char *paramValues[2] = {"[1,2,3]", "[4,5,6]"};
+PGresult *res = PQexecParams(conn, "INSERT INTO items (embedding) VALUES ($1), ($2)", 2, NULL, paramValues, NULL, NULL, 0);
+```
+
+Get the nearest neighbors
+
+```c
+const char *paramValues[1] = {"[3,1,2]"};
+PGresult *res = PQexecParams(conn, "SELECT * FROM items ORDER BY embedding <-> $1 LIMIT 5", 1, NULL, paramValues, NULL, NULL, 0);
+```
+
+See a [full example](test/pq_test.c)
+
