Tantivy is a full text search engine library written in rust.
It is strongly inspired by Lucene's design.
- configurable indexing (optional term frequency and position indexing)
- tf-idf scoring
- Basic query language
- Incremental indexing
- Multithreaded indexing (indexing English Wikipedia takes 4 minutes on my desktop)
- mmap based
- SIMD integer compression
- u32 fast fields (equivalent of doc values in Lucene)
- LZ4 compressed document store
- Cheesy logo with a horse
- tantivy's usage example
- tantivy-cli and its tutorial. It will walk you through getting a wikipedia search engine up and running in a few minutes.
- reference doc.
Tantivy has a git submodule called simdcomp.
After cloning the repository, you will need to initialize and update
the submodules. The project can then be built using cargo.
git clone git@github.com:fulmicoton/tantivy.git
git submodule init
git submodule update
cargo build
