Comment on Algolia introduces pay-as-you-go pricing for searchparent

Comments

Tried it out with about 10k short docs and it works pretty well as a potentional algolia replacement. I had to use 'sort_by' : '_text_match:desc' to get good results.

I couldn't find a way to create synonyms, is this possible?

Is it also possible to control typo sensitivity like algolia? e.g. min chars for 1 typo, min chars for 2 typos.

The curation features looks handy, but I haven't tried it yet.

Install and config was a breeze which is appreciated.

I hope it takes off for you. Nice work.

Thanks for the feedback. Synonyms is on the immediate roadmap, but not available at the moment.

Is it also possible to control typo sensitivity

You can control overall number of typose with ?num_typos=1 -- there is no way to define min chars for a specific typo. The engine does make some intelligent decisions to optimize. For example, for a 2 letter query it does not use a num_typos=2 even if that is specified.

Glad to hear about the setup. Will continue to improve.
