About Laravel Redis Scout engine

Since no proper Redis engine was available for Laravel Scout I created one. Tested with ~10k records, response time was ~0.1 sec on local redis instance

Installation

Install with composer

composer require tarre/laravel-redis-scout-engine

.env

SCOUT_DRIVER=redis

REDIS_HOST=....
REDIS_PASSWORD=null
REDIS_PORT=6379

scout.php (only required if you want to change anything)

<?php

return [
    // ....

Usage

See official docs for usage

Callback for search

If you to filter the results for get and paginate you can use the \Tarre\RedisScoutEngine\Callback

use App\Models\User;
use Tarre\RedisScoutEngine\Callback;

User::search('xxxx', fn(Callback $cb) => $cb->mapResult(fn(User $user) => ['id' => $user->id, 'name' => $user->name, 'abc' => 123]))->paginate()

        {
            "id":1,
            "name":"Kade Trantow",

        },
