Lunr.rs

A Lunr backend implemented in Rust.

Status

Very early stages.

The current implementation is able to generate an index that is readable and searchable by lunr.js, but that is about it. Currently there is no pipeline and no ability to associate metadata with a token.

• Implement text processing pipeline
• Add stemmer?
• Implement token metadata (collecting and serialising)
• Capture token positions during tokenisation
• Improve the interface for defining documents and indexes

There is almost certainly a bunch more things that need to be done, this is very definitly still at the proof of concept stage.

Example

There is a simple example that will spit out a serialised index on stdout. This can be used to create a lunr index in JavaScript, the following should work in any JavaScript environment that has Lunr:

let idx = lunr.Index.load(JSON.parse('BIG GLOB OF JSON HERE'))
idx.search('life')
