Full Text Search

This is a full text search Flutter plugin which build on Tantivy.

Tantivy is a full-text search engine library inspired by Apache Lucene and written in Rust.

Schema

The schema describes the type (string, text, u64) of a field as well as how it should be handled.

Schema field type supported:

Field Type Description
string String field type configuration
text Text field type configuration
u64 Unsigned 64-bits integers field type configuration
i64 Signed 64-bits integers 64 field type configuration
f64 64-bits float 64 field type configuration
date Signed 64-bits Date field type configuration
facet Hierachical Facet
bytes Bytes (one per document)

Query Terms

Operators like AND, OR, TO MUST BE in UPPERCASE

  • simple terms: "e.g.: Barack Obama are simply tokenized using tantivy's SimpleTokenizer, hence becoming ["barack", "obama"]. The terms are then searched within the default terms of the query parser.

    e.g. If body and title are default fields, our example terms are ["title:barack", "body:barack", "title:obama", "body:obama"]. By default, all tokenized and indexed fields are default fields.

  • multiple terms are handled as an OR : any document containing at least one of the term will go through the scoring.

    This behavior is slower, but is not a bad idea if the user is sorting by relevance : The user typically just scans through the first few documents in order of decreasing relevance and will stop when the documents are not relevant anymore.

  • boolean operators: AND, OR. AND takes precedence over OR, so that a AND b OR c is interpreted as (a AND b) OR c.

  • In addition to the boolean operators, the -, can help define. These operators are sufficient to express all queries using boolean operators. For instance x AND y OR z can be written (( x y) z). In addition, these operators can help define "required optional" queries. ( x y) matches the same document set as simply x, but y will help refining the score.

  • negative terms: By prepending a term by a -, a term can be excluded from the search. This is useful for disambiguating a query. e.g. apple -fruit

  • must terms: By prepending a term by a , a term can be made required for the search.

  • phrase terms: Quoted terms become phrase searches on fields that have positions indexed. e.g., title:"Barack Obama" will only find documents that have "barack" immediately followed by "obama".

  • range terms: Range searches can be done by specifying the start and end bound. These can be inclusive or exclusive. e.g., title:[a TO c} will find all documents whose title contains a word lexicographically between a and c (inclusive lower bound, exclusive upper bound). Inclusive bounds are [], exclusive are {}.

  • date values: The query parser supports rfc3339 formatted dates. For example "2002-10-02T15:00:00.05Z"

  • all docs query: A plain * will match all documents in the index.

Need to know

  • Up to now, one SearchEngine for one kind of data type, it's not the right way. Need to be changed.
  • Underground, this plugin build on 'static or shared native library of rust', it uses Dart FFI to call the rust code
  • Document can't be deleted by text field, please use string

Example

/// create a instance of SearchEngine and set it up
final engine = SearchEngine();
SearchEngine.setup();

/// get the path which used to store index files
final _path = await getApplicationDocumentsDirectory().path;

/// define the schema of the data which wanted to be indexed
final _schema = r'{"id": "i64",  "timestamp": "date", "content": "text"}';

/// open a exists one or create a new one on the device
engine.openOrCreate(_path, _schema);

/// encode the data object to a json string
final _doc = jsonEncode(dataObject);
/// start to index and store the data
await engine.index(_doc);

/// give the query keywords and the field which to search on 
final res = await engine.search('关键字 关键词', ['content'], 1, 10);

/// remove a specify document by giving a field of u64 and it's value
/// document can't be deleted by text field, please use string field
await engine.deleteByU64('id', 141906710246850560);
