Clucy is a Clojure interface to Lucene.

Usage

To use Clucy, first require it:

(ns example
  (:require [clucy.core :as clucy]))

Then create an index. You can use (memory-index), which stores the search index in RAM, or (disk-index "/path/to/a-folder"), which stores the index in a folder on disk.

(def index (clucy/memory-index))

Next, add Clojure maps to the index:

(clucy/add index
   {:name "Bob", :job "Builder"}
   {:name "Donald", :job "Computer Scientist"})

Once maps have been added, the index can be searched:

user=> (clucy/search index "bob" 10)
({:name "Bob", :job "Builder"})

user=> (clucy/search index "scientist" 10)
({:name "Donald", :job "Computer Scientist"})
