Picky
Ruby search library and server for semantic text search over in-memory, Redis or SQLite indexes.
Picky is a Ruby search library and server for semantic text search. Its indexes can be kept in memory as JSON files on disk, in Redis, or in SQLite. A running Picky server loads its in-memory indexes when it starts and removes them from memory when it stops. The gems are installed with gem install, and the generators produce a running server and client as a starting point. Florian Hanke maintains the project, and the documentation source sits in the repository.
Worth knowing
The project’s homepage is served over plain http only, so the record links the GitHub repository and the documentation source instead.
