svix-webhooks VS MeiliSearch

That's exactly why we built Svix[1]. Building webhooks services, even with amazing tools like FastAPI, Celery and Redis is still a big pain. So we just built a product to solve it.

Hatchet looks cool nonetheless. Queues are a pain for many other use-cases too.

Obviously Deno have vested interest it (and so do I as the founder of Svix[1]), but my take is that webhooks are great, though there are alternatives that could be better or complementary depending on the situation.

At Svix we also support running JS instead of sending webhooks (using Deno!), and it is very useful, but there are many limitations with this approach, and in general oftentimes people just want the data passed to their systems and deal with it there. Not write a bit of JS to do something ad-hoc.

So in short, like always with software engineering: "it depends" and there are tradeoffs to each approach.

Svix - Webhooks as a Service. Send up to 50,000 messages/month for free.

We opted for a more manual approach, we have a ctx!() macro[1] we use for wrapping errors we want to enrich thay we use like this[2]: ctx!(some_fallible_fund(foo))?

I wodner if anyone is doing anything better? The nice thing is that we have relevant fields in our error type, so we get a full backtrace out if it.

This is what we do at Svix: https://docs.svix.com/receiving/source-ips

I've seen other companies (e.g. Stripe) also offer it via JSON, but I personally think it's not that important to provide it in a machine readable format if you don't plan on changing it; which you shouldn't as it'll break integrations. You should only add new IPs that can only be allocated to new customers.

P.S, if you'd like to start sending webhooks, you should probably check out Svix: https://www.svix.com

If I understand you, you just want some queue system, like kafka.But if you want a whole app who handle all your webhooks usage you can see : https://github.com/svix/svix-webhooks/

Might want to look into Svix and HostedHooks

We needed to introduce a new service for search. As we settled on using meilisearch, we needed a way to sync updates on our models with the records in meilisearch. We could've continued to use callbacks but we needed something better.

Meilisearch

In this case, a good strategy is to use vector search only when the keyword/prefix search returns none or just a small number of results. A good candidate for this is MeiliSearch. It uses custom ranking rules to provide results as fast as the user can type.

With the VertexAI endpoint set up and tested, our next step is to work with LibreChat. LibreChat is an open-source ChatGPT clone that can integrate with various AI models, including the PaLM 2 models via the VertexAI API. It's built using React, MongoDB, and Meilisearch technologies.

Meilisearch seems like it is the best open source option.

Starting with v1.3, you can use Meilisearch as a vector store. Meilisearch allows you to store vector embeddings alongside your documents conveniently. You will need to create the vector embeddings using your third-party tool of choice (Hugging Face, OpenAI). As we published the first v1.3 release candidate, you can try out vector search today.

I work at Meilisearch, an open-source search engine built in Rust. 🦀
