NAME
Search::Typesense - Perl interface to Typesense search engine.
SYNOPSIS
my $typesense = Search::Typesense->new(
host => $host, # required
api_key => $key, # required
port => $port, # defaults to 8108
use_https => $bool, # defaults to true
);
my $results = $typesense->search(
$collection_name,
{ q => 'Search String' },
);
if ( $results->{found} ) {
foreach my $hit ( @{ $results->{hits} } ) {
...;
}
}
DESCRIPTION
ALPHA CODE. The interface can and will change without warning.
This is an interface to the Typesense search engine. Most methods will do one of three things:
- Return results as defined in the Typesense documentation (listed per section)
- Return nothing if Typesense returns a 404.
croakif Typesense returns an error.
CONSTRUCTOR
The constructor takes a list (or hashref) of key/value pairs.
my $typesense = Search::Typesense->new(
host => $host, # required
api_key => $key, # required
port => $port, # defaults to 8108
use_https => $bool, # defaults to true
);
api_key
The api key to which will be sent as the X-TYPESENSE-API-KEY header.
host
The hostname to connect to.
port
Optional port number to connect to. Defaults to 8108 if not supplied.
use_https
Optional boolean. Whether or not to connect to Typesense over https. Default true.
METHODS
assert_is_running
$typesense->assert_is_running;
This does nothing if we can connect to Typesense. Otherwise, this method will
croak with a message explaining the error.
typesense_version
my $version = $typesense->typesense_version;
Returns an instance of Search::Typesense::Version.
If your version of Typesense is older than 0.8.0, this method will return
nothing.
get_collections
if ( my $collections = $typesense->get_collections ) {
# returns all collections
}
if ( my $collections = $typesense->get_collections($collection_name) ) {
# returns collection matching $collection_name, if any
}
