```bash
git clone https://github.com/meilisearch/MeiliSearch.git

cargo run --release
```
### Create an Index and Upload Some Documents
2020-03-26 11:59:40 +01:00
Let's create an index! If you need a sample dataset, use [this movie database](https://www.notion.so/meilisearch/A-movies-dataset-to-test-Meili-1cbf7c9cfa4247249c40edfa22d7ca87#b5ae399b81834705ba5420ac70358a65). You can also find it in the `datasets/` directory.
2019-12-02 17:17:16 +01:00
```bash
2019-12-10 16:49:22 +01:00
curl -L 'https://bit.ly/2PAcw9l' -o movies.json
2019-12-02 17:17:16 +01:00
```
2020-03-26 11:59:40 +01:00
MeiliSearch can serve multiple indexes, with different kinds of documents.
It is required to create an index before sending documents to it.
```bash
2019-11-29 18:02:32 +01:00
curl -i -X POST 'http://127.0.0.1:7700/indexes' --data '{ "name": "Movies", "uid": "movies" }'
```
2020-03-26 11:59:40 +01:00
Now that the server knows about your brand new index, you're ready to send it some data.
```bash
2019-11-29 18:02:32 +01:00
curl -i -X POST 'http://127.0.0.1:7700/indexes/movies/documents' \
--header 'content-type: application/json' \
2019-12-02 17:17:16 +01:00
--data-binary @movies.json
```
### Search for Documents
#### In command line
2020-05-27 12:03:23 +02:00
The search engine is now aware of your documents and can serve those via an HTTP server.
2020-03-26 13:18:11 +01:00
2020-03-26 11:59:40 +01:00
The [`jq` command-line tool](https://stedolan.github.io/jq/) can greatly help you read the server responses.
```bash
2019-12-02 17:17:16 +01:00
curl 'http://127.0.0.1:7700/indexes/movies/search?q=botman+robin&limit=2' | jq
```
```json

#### Use the Web Interface
2020-03-26 12:23:09 +01:00
We also deliver an **out-of-the-box web interface** in which you can test MeiliSearch interactively.
2020-03-26 13:18:11 +01:00
You can access the web interface in your web browser at the root of the server. The default URL is [http://127.0.0.1:7700](http://127.0.0.1:7700). All you need to do is open your web browser and enter MeiliSearchs address to visit it. This will lead you to a web page with a search bar that will allow you to search in the selected index.
