A comprehensive indexing solution built to cater to a wide variety of indexing requirements. It provides a robust API for adding, removing, updating, and finding data based on multiple types of index fields. Including an inverted-indexing of words within a text field.

## Features

- Dynamic field creation for indexing
- Supports single, multi, and text-based fields
- Extensible with custom index field types
- Asynchronous API support
- Transactional batch operations
- Formatter and reducer customization

## Installation

Install the package with:

```bash
npm install @plaindb/index
```

## Usage

First, import the `Indexer` library.

```js
import Indexer from '@plaindb/index'
```
or
```js
const Indexer = require('@plaindb/index')
```

### Initialize the Index

```js
const storage = // Your storage instance
const index = new Index(storage, ['name', 'age|gender', 'description text'])
```

### Adding an Entity

```js
await index.add({
id: 1,
name: 'John',
age: 30,
gender: 'male',
description: 'Software Engineer'
})
```

### Removing an Entity

```js
await index.remove({
id: 1
})
```

### Updating an Entity

```js
await index.update(oldEntity, newEntity)
```

### Finding Entities

You can find entities based on index fields:

```js
const results = await index.find('age', 30)
```

### Custom Formatter and Reducer

You can provide custom formatter and reducer functions through the `opts` parameter:

```js
const index = new Index(storage, ['name'], {
formatter: new CustomFormatter(),
reducer: (entity) => entity.customId
})
```

## Documentation

- [API Reference](/docs/api.md)

### Classes

- `Index`: Manages multiple index fields and dispatches operations.
- `IndexFactory`: Creates index fields dynamically.
- `IndexField`: Abstract class for index fields.
- `SingleIndexField`: Index field for single properties.
- `MultiIndexField`: Index field for multi-properties.
- `TextIndexField`: Index field for text-based searching.

### Methods

- `Index.by(slug)`: Dynamically add an index field.
- `Index.add(entity)`: Add an entity to the index.
- `Index.remove(entity)`: Remove an entity from the index.
- `Index.update(oldEntity, newEntity)`: Update an entity in the index.
- `Index.find(query, ...values)`: Find entities based on a query.

## Extending

To extend the library with a custom index field, create a class extending `IndexField` and register it via `Registry`.

## Tests

In order to run the test suite, simply clone the repository and install its dependencies:

```bash
git clone https://gitlab.com/frenware/framework/plaindb/index.git
cd indexer
npm install
```

To run the tests:

```bash
npm test
```
