**Tantivy** is a **full text search engine library** written in rust.
It is closer to Lucene than to Elastic Search and Solr in the sense it is not
an off-the-shelf search engine server, but rather a crate that can be used
to build such a search engine.
Tantivy is, in fact, strongly inspired by Lucene's design.
# Features
- Full-text search
- Fast (check out the :racehorse: :sparkles: [benchmark](https://tantivy-search.github.io/bench/) :sparkles: :racehorse:)
- Tiny startup time (<10ms), perfect for command line tools
- BM25 scoring (the same as lucene)
- Natural query language `(michael AND jackson) OR "king of pop"`
- Phrase queries search (`"michael jackson"`)
- Incremental indexing
- Multithreaded indexing (indexing English Wikipedia takes < 3 minutes on my desktop)
- Mmap directory
- SIMD integer compression when the platform/CPU includes the SSE2 instruction set.
- Single valued and multivalued u64 and i64 fast fields (equivalent of doc values in Lucene)
- `&[u8]` fast fields
- LZ4 compressed document store
- Range queries
- Faceted search
- Configurable indexing (optional term frequency and position indexing)
- Cheesy logo with a horse
# Non-features
- Distributed search is out of the scope of tantivy. That being said, tantivy is meant as a
library upon which one could build a distributed search. Serializable/mergeable collector state for instance,
are within the scope of tantivy.
# Supported OS and compiler
Tantivy works on stable rust (>= 1.27) and supports Linux, MacOS and Windows.
# Getting started
- [tantivy's simple search example](http://fulmicoton.com/tantivy-examples/simple_search.html)
- [tantivy-cli and its tutorial](https://github.com/tantivy-search/tantivy-cli).
`tantivy-cli` is an actual command line interface that makes it easy for you to create a search engine,
index documents and search via the CLI or a small server with a REST API.
It will walk you through getting a wikipedia search engine up and running in a few minutes.

- [For the last released version](https://docs.rs/tantivy/)
- [For the last master branch](https://tantivy-search.github.io/tantivy/tantivy/index.html)
# Compiling
## Development
Tantivy compiles on stable rust but requires `Rust >= 1.27`.
To check out and run tests, you can simply run :
git clone git@github.com:tantivy-search/tantivy.git
cd tantivy
cargo build
## Running tests
Some tests will not run with just `cargo test` because of `fail-rs`.
To run the tests exhaustively, run `./run-tests.sh`.
