import { datasets } from '@travisennis/datasets';
import { z } from 'zod';

// Define your dataset schema
const schema = z.object({
  question: z.string(),
  answer: z.string(),
});

// Initialize the dataset
const ds = datasets({
  dataset: 'hotpot_qa',
  schema,
});

// Get dataset information
const info = await ds.info();

// Get dataset splits
const splits = await ds.splits();

// Get rows from a specific split
const rows = await ds.getRows({
  split: 'train',
  config: 'distractor',
  options: { offset: 0, length: 100 }
});

// Stream data using iterator
for await (const batch of ds.data({
  split: 'train',
  config: 'distractor',
