Comparison with other packages?

[tony]

Hi! Thank you for the project.

Is their any comparison between this project and https://github.com/gajus/liqe? Are their any similar, active projects out there that also use TypeScript and parse lucene-like queries to AST?

Hi,

Initially, I wanted to use Liqe, but it has a bug that doesn't support numbers in queries. As a result, I decided to create an npm package that offers more customization options, such as variables and functions.

Performance-wise, both are fast, and I didn't notice any significant difference in my initial tests. There are other Lucene-like parsers available, but their last commits were over five years ago. That’s another reason I decided to create this repository.

Are you missing a feature or looking for something specific?

Best regards

Hi,

Thank you for the explanation behind the project and about the Liqe package as well.

Yes, I've noticed the same when searching for libraries regarding these, the ecosystem is a bit ad hoc, and outdated packages tend to run into issues (Not supporting ESM, TypeScript, having bugs, so on).

Are you missing a feature or looking for something specific?

Yes, do you offer or have any of these on your roadmap?

• Schemas: Autocompletion and validation

  e.g. for the example at Search and filtering usage, would gender, firstName, and age be handled against a schema / model? Example: FieldSchema in search-input-query-parser.

• UX widget

  Example: search-input-query-react is doing:
