# Python Search Engine

This is a search engine on the **Gutenberg Project* archive.

It is implemented with python and the front end part is handled with **Flask** framework.

**Demo:** [search.gkos.dev](https://search.gkos.dev)

It is consisted of 2 basics elements:

The first one is the BuildIndex.py which scans the archive and creates an Inverted File and a file with the Document Names.

  I am using *3-in-4 Front Coding* compression.

  

The second part is the index.py(or QueryIndex.py as it was originally named).

  Through the front-end part(form.html) the user enters the keywords.

  The index.py is called which searches inside the inverted file using **tf*idf**.

  The results are separated in two parts:

    All the documents the keywords found in and

    the documents in which the keywords were found as a phrase.

  Then the results are being printed firstly including all the documents and secondly the top 10 documents based on the **tf*idf**.
