sist2 VS Ambar

Quickly Googling for a docker indexer and search app I turned up Sist2, that on the surface looks like might fit your needs. I don't have an appropriate data store to run it against, so I can't speak to its indexing speed or efficacy. However, the developer does have an accessible demo to try, and the front end at least appears to function well.

I'm also looking for tools like this. You can check out this: https://github.com/simon987/sist2

Maybe sist2 (https://github.com/simon987/sist2 may fit the bill. It indexes all the metadata and then act as a giant search engine.

I am long user of sist2 from simon987 for full text search of pdf. It indexes everything (file content and metadata) through elasticsearch while providing a nice GUI. https://github.com/simon987/sist2

I have no experience with this tool, but I recall seeing it in the past. Perhaps it fills your need: https://github.com/simon987/sist2

sist2 is my primary file indexing / search engine for my SingleFile web archive. Lightweight, blazing fast and tons of customisable options.

I haven’t tried it in ages but used recoll for local indexing lots of random documents, I found a few repos on GitHub and Docker Hub but nothing super active but may be worth looking at viktor-c/docker-recoll-webui or sist2 is newer and I haven’t used it but may be better maintained at this point

Having a tool that can scan and index a shared folder would be amazing, and it being accessible from a web browser would also be great, because then I could search from any one of my several devices. The closest thing I have found was sist2. The demo seems to be what I need, but I couldn't seem to get it to run with docker. There's a direct install method, but I haven't tried that yet.

One product could be "Ambar: Document Search Engine"

There was an open-source program called Ambar that was pretty chill. It let you full-text search documents, perform OCR on these documents, and tag. There surely exist apps that do each, but the nice thing about Ambar was it incorporated all of the above into one nice GUI.

I don't need any other features (other than batch uploading). The best ones I've found so far are Ambar, I, librarian, and Lodestone with their multiple 'snippet' search functionality, however for various reasons they won't work with my use case.[1]

There is also stuff like Mayan EDMS which is much more enterprise-oriented or Ambar which targeted more for individual users.
