This is a library, this means that binary are not part of this repository but since I'm still nice I have made some examples for you in the examples/ folder.

Performances

We made some tests on remote machines and found that we can handle, on a server that cost 5$/month with 1vCPU and 1GB of ram and on the same index and with a simple query:

near 190 users with an average response time of 90ms
150 users with an average response time of 70ms
100 users with an average response time of 45ms

Network is mesured, servers are located in amsterdam and tests are made between two different datacenters.

Usage and examples

Meili-core work with an index like most of the search engines. So to test the library you can create one by indexing a simple csv file.

cargo build --release --example csv-indexer
time ./target/release/examples/csv-indexer --stop-words misc/en.stopwords.txt misc/kaggle.csv

The en.stopwords.txt file here is a simple file that contains one stop word by line (e.g. or, and).

Once the command finished indexing you will have 3 files that compose the index:

The xxx.map represent the fst map.
The xxx.idx represent the doc indexes matching the words in the map.
The xxx.sst is a file that contains all the fields and the values asociated with it, it is passed to the internal RocksDB.

Now you can easily run the serve-console or serve-http examples with the name of the dump. (e.g. relaxed-colden).

cargo build --release --example serve-console
./target/release/examples/serve-console relaxed-colden
