Features

• Full Text/Term search (sqlish!!!)
• Easy read, write & delete API
• Serialize flat JSON/Struct
• Write multiple documents together
• Support fuzzy word search (see examples)
• Requires no runtime
• No unsafe block
• Run on rust stable
• Coming Soon: Bi-gram suggestion & TF-IDF support

Motivation

• Allow your existing flat rust structs to be searched
• The crate will support arbitary byte stream once it is supported by tantivy (see here)
• This can just act as a container to actual data in databases, keeping indexes light
• Create time-aware containers which could possibly updated/deleted
• Create ephemeral storage for request/response
• This can integrate with any web-server to index and search near real-time
• This crate will focus mostly on user-workflow(s) related problem(s)
• Uses tantivy under the hood.

TODO

• Add more examples
• Remove any further copy
• Introduce more housekeeping API (If required)
