Loupe

PHP full-text search library that stores its index in SQLite and needs no separate search service.

Loupe adds full-text search to a PHP application and keeps its index in SQLite, so the search needs no service beyond the application and its database file. The Loupe documentation covers setup and indexing.

Worth knowing

Loupe needs the pdo_sqlite PHP extension and a minimum SQLite release.
