## Introduction ## Introduction
This engine is a prototype, do not use it in production. This repository contains the core engine used in [MeiliSearch].
This is one of the most advanced search engine I have worked on.
It currently only supports the proximity criterion.
### Compile and Run the server It contains a library that can manage one and only one index. MeiliSearch
manages the multi-index itself. Milli is unable to store updates in a store:
it is the job of something else above and this is why it is only able
to process one update at a time.
This repository contains crates to quickly debug the engine:
- There are benchmarks located in the `benchmarks` crate.
- The `http-ui` crate is a simple HTTP dashboard to tests the features like for real!
- The `infos` crate is used to dump the internal data-structure and ensure correctness.
- The `search` crate is a simple command-line that helps run [flamegraph] on top of it.
- The `helpers` crate is only used to modify the database inplace, sometimes.
