Adding elements after index creation

[mehrrsaa]

Hi,

I was wondering if NGT in python supports insertion of new elements after the index is built. Basically for scenarios that we want to grow the index object as the data grows without inserting all elements again and rebuilding a new index object.

Thanks,
Mehrsa

You can insert new objects to an existing index without rebuilding for all objects. If there is no bugs, the way of additional insertion is almost the same as the examples without create(). insert() and build_index() for ctypes or batch_insert() for pybind11 add only new objects into an existing index.

Thank you for the answer @masajiro!
