InfluxDB

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.
There are actually plenty of non-ES products that are way easier to integrate and tune (and get better results with less effort).

Project mention: Character and Subsector generators for Classic Traveller, with TAS Forms! | /r/traveller | 2023-12-07I wrote an online catalog a while back (and I need to get back on adding graphics and products at some point). It’s written using Eleventy and the minisearch library. The source and data are available on Github if you want to see how I did things. I’m not a professional web designer either, but it was a fun project.
Project mention: Should you combine edit distance "spell check" algorithms with phonetic matching algorithms for robust keyword finding? | /r/AskComputerScience | 2023-11-07The SimSpell algorithm uses deletions to determine edit distance of the input query word compared to a dictionary of correctly spelled words. The Double Metaphone algorithm (or other phonetic algorithms) convert the words to phonetic versions (phonetic "hashes" basically), and you then search based on the input phonetic hash matching the dictionary of phonetic hashes.
I've been using enhancd for years now.

Project mention: Show HN: A fast, accurate and multilingual fuzzy search lib for the front end | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-02-14Thank you. We need more libs like that. I just researched the field yesterday and https://github.com/leeoniya/uFuzzy looked pretty good. But there is a gap in the market of such libs. Just few allow to send the whole html document, serialize and deserialize index to be used in browser, highlighting the matches is desired feature.
Most importantly very few fuzzy search libs can get a simple substring match as a priority, which is understandable but not helpful. Imagine searching for “xample” and not having “example” among the results.
Project mention: Ugrep – a more powerful, ultra fast, user-friendly, compatible grep | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-12-30
For sounds something like https://github.com/jamesturk/jellyfish ?
https://github.com/vim-ctrlspace/vim-ctrlspace is the main plugin I use to open files and jump between buffers. In terms of this plugin, a project is a "bookmark," and you can switch between them easily - each project is actually just a working directory. Then you can open files from the current project directory using fuzzy search. I use tabs to keep related buffers together. And one of strong points of ctrlspace is that it keeps buffer list separate per tab. In other words, each tab has its own list of buffers, so you can jump really quickly between them. Of course, you can search in all loaded buffers (like in :ls).
