# Koncorde

This module is a reverse-search engine.

Instead of indexing data and searching for them using filters, Koncorde does the opposite: it indexes search filters, and returns the corresponding ones when presented with data.

* an arbitrary large number of filters can be registered and indexed;
* whenever data are submitted to Koncorde, it returns the list of indexed filters matching them;
* Koncorde's [filter syntax](https://github.com/kuzzleio/koncorde/wiki/Filter-Syntax) supports a variety of different matchers, and ways to combine them.

Koncorde can be used in a variety of ways. For instance:

* as a base of a notification system, where indexed filters are used as user subscriptions: Koncorde tells which JSON objects verify what subscriptions, making it easy to send events to listening users;
* to verify if JSON objects comply to filters used as validation rules.

Check our [full documentation](https://github.com/kuzzleio/koncorde/wiki) to know more about Koncorde's API, filter syntax, and more.

# Quick start example

In the following example, we'll listen to objects containing a `position` property, describing a geopoint. We want that geopoint to be 500 meters around a pre-defined starting position.

This can be described by the following Koncorde filter:

```json
{
"geoDistance": {
"position": {
"lat": 43.6073913,
"lon": 3.9109057
},
"distance": "500m"
}
}
```

All you need to do now is to register this filter to the engine, and use it to test data:

```js
import { Koncorde } from 'koncorde';

const engine = new Koncorde();

const filter = {
geoDistance: {
position: {
lat: 43.6073913,
lon: 3.9109057
},
distance: "500m"
}
};

const filterId = engine.register(filter);

// Filter Identifiers are seeded. Given the same seed (to be provided to the
// constructor), then the filter IDs stay stable.
console.log(`Filter identifier: ${filterId}`);

// No match found, returns an empty array (distance is greater than 500m)
console.log(engine.test({ position: { lat: 43.6073913, lon: 5.7 } }));

// Point within the filter's scope: returns the list of matched filters
// Here we registered just one of them, so the array contains only 1 filter ID
console.log(engine.test({ position: { lat: 43.608, lon: 3.905 } }));

// No match found, returns an empty array
// (the geopoint in the provided data is not stored in the tested field)
console.log(engine.test({ not_position: { lat: 43.608, lon: 3.905 } }));
```

# Install

This library is compatible with Node.js version 12.x or higher.
Both a C and a C++ compilers are needed to install its dependencies: Koncorde cannot be used in a browser.

Koncorde is compatible with either Javascript or Typescript projects.

To install:

```
npm install koncorde
```
