Index and search records using Algolia.

Project description

https://img.shields.io/travis/Kinto/kinto-algolia.svg https://img.shields.io/pypi/v/kinto-algolia.svg https://coveralls.io/repos/Kinto/kinto-algolia/badge.svg?branch=master

kinto-algolia forwards the records to Algolia and provides a /search endpoint to query the indexed data.

Install

pip install kinto-algolia

Setup

In the Kinto settings:

kinto.includes = kinto_algolia
kinto.algolia.application_id = YourApplicationID
kinto.algolia.api_key = YourAPIKey

# List of buckets/collections to show:
kinto.algolia.resources = /buckets/chefclub-v2
                          /buckets/chefclub/collections/recipes

By default, indices names are prefixed with kinto-. You change this with:

kinto.algolia.index_prefix = myprefix

Usage

Create a new record:

$ echo '{"data":
    {"id": "1008855320",
     "last_modified": 1523349594783,
     "title": "kinto",
     "description": "A database for the web",
     "_geoloc": {"lng": -73.778925, "lat": 40.639751}}' | \
    http POST http://localhost:8888/v1/buckets/example/collections/notes/records \
        --auth token:alice-token

It should now be possible to search for it using the Algolia API.

For example, using a quick querystring search:

$ http "http://localhost:8888/v1/buckets/example/collections/notes/search?query=kinto+database" \
    --auth token:alice-token

Or an advanced search using request body:

$ echo '{"insideBoundingBox": "46.650828100116044,7.123046875,45.17210966999772,1.009765625"}' | \
    http POST http://localhost:8888/v1/buckets/example/collections/notes/search \
        --auth token:alice-token

  "processingTimeMS": 2,
  "query": ""
}

Custom index settings

By default, Algolia infers the data types from the indexed records.

But it’s possible to define the index mappings (ie. schema) from the collection metadata, in the algolia:settings property:

$ echo '{
  "attributesToIndex": ["title", "description"]
}' | http PATCH "http://localhost:8888/v1/buckets/blog/collections/builds" \
    --auth token:admin-token --verbose

Refer to Algolia official documentation for more information about settings.
