## 📖 Documentation
This readme contains all the documentation you need to start using this Meilisearch SDK.
For general information on how to use Meilisearch—such as our API reference, tutorials, guides, and in-depth articles—refer to our [main documentation website](https://www.meilisearch.com/docs).
## 🔧 Installation
To use `meilisearch-sdk`, add this to your `Cargo.toml`:
```toml
[dependencies]
meilisearch-sdk = "0.27.1"
```
The following optional dependencies may also be useful:
```toml
futures = "0.3" # To be able to block on async functions if you are not using an async runtime
serde = { version = "1.0", features = ["derive"] }
```
This crate is `async` but you can choose to use an async runtime like [tokio](https://crates.io/crates/tokio) or just [block on futures](https://docs.rs/futures/latest/futures/executor/fn.block_on.html).
You can enable the `sync` feature to make most structs `Sync`. It may be a bit slower.
Using this crate is possible without [serde](https://crates.io/crates/serde), but a lot of features require serde.

## 🚀 Getting started
#### Add Documents
```rust
use meilisearch_sdk::client::*;
use serde::{Serialize, Deserialize};
use futures::executor::block_on;
#[derive(Serialize, Deserialize, Debug)]
struct Movie {
id: usize,
title: String,
genres: Vec,
}
#[tokio::main(flavor = "current_thread")]
async fn main() {
// Create a client (without sending any request so that can't fail)
let client = Client::new(MEILISEARCH_URL, Some(MEILISEARCH_API_KEY)).unwrap();
// An index is where the documents are stored.
let movies = client.index("movies");
// Add some movies in the index. If the index 'movies' does not exist, Meilisearch creates it when you first add the documents.
movies.add_documents(&[
Movie { id: 1, title: String::from("Carol"), genres: vec!["Romance".to_string(), "Drama".to_string()] },
Movie { id: 2, title: String::from("Wonder Woman"), genres: vec!["Action".to_string(), "Adventure".to_string()] },
Movie { id: 3, title: String::from("Life of Pi"), genres: vec!["Adventure".to_string(), "Drama".to_string()] },
Movie { id: 4, title: String::from("Mad Max"), genres: vec!["Adventure".to_string(), "Science Fiction".to_string()] },
Movie { id: 5, title: String::from("Moana"), genres: vec!["Fantasy".to_string(), "Action".to_string()] },
Movie { id: 6, title: String::from("Philadelphia"), genres: vec!["Drama".to_string()] },
], Some("id")).await.unwrap();
}
```
With the `uid`, you can check the status (`enqueued`, `canceled`, `processing`, `succeeded` or `failed`) of your documents addition using the [task](https://www.meilisearch.com/docs/reference/api/tasks#get-task).
#### Basic Search
```rust
// Meilisearch is typo-tolerant:
println!("{:?}", client.index("movies_2").search().with_query("caorl").execute::().await.unwrap().hits);
```
Output:
```
[Movie { id: 1, title: String::from("Carol"), genres: vec!["Romance", "Drama"] }]
```
Json output:
```json
{
"hits": [{
"id": 1,
"title": "Carol",
"genres": ["Romance", "Drama"]
}],
"offset": 0,
"limit": 10,
"processingTimeMs": 1,
"query": "caorl"
}
```
#### Custom Search
```rust
let search_result = client.index("movies_3")
.search()
.with_query("phil")
.with_attributes_to_highlight(Selectors::Some(&["*"]))
.execute::()
.await
.unwrap();
println!("{:?}", search_result.hits);
```
Json output:
```json
{
"hits": [
{
"id": 6,
"title": "Philadelphia",
"_formatted": {
"id": 6,
"title": "Philadelphia",
"genre": ["Drama"]
}
}
],
"offset": 0,
"limit": 20,
"processingTimeMs": 0,
"query": "phil"
}
```
#### Custom Search With Filters
If you want to enable filtering, you must add your attributes to the `filterableAttributes`
index setting.
```rust
let filterable_attributes = [
"id",
"genres",
];
client.index("movies_4").set_filterable_attributes(&filterable_attributes).await.unwrap();
```
You only need to perform this operation once.
Note that Meilisearch will rebuild your index whenever you update `filterableAttributes`. Depending on the size of your dataset, this might take time. You can track the process using the [tasks](https://www.meilisearch.com/docs/reference/api/tasks#get-task).
Then, you can perform the search:
```rust
let search_result = client.index("movies_5")
.search()
.with_query("wonder")
.with_filter("id > 1 AND genres = Action")
.execute::()
.await
.unwrap();
println!("{:?}", search_result.hits);
```
Json output:
```json
{
"hits": [
{
"id": 2,
"title": "Wonder Woman",
"genres": ["Action", "Adventure"]
}
],
"offset": 0,
"limit": 20,
"estimatedTotalHits": 1,
"processingTimeMs": 0,
"query": "wonder"
}
```
#### Customize the `HttpClient`
By default, the SDK uses [`reqwest`](https://docs.rs/reqwest/latest/reqwest/) to make http calls.
The SDK lets you customize the http client by implementing the `HttpClient` trait yourself and
initializing the `Client` with the `new_with_client` method.
You may be interested by the `futures-unsend` feature which lets you specify a non-Send http client.
#### Wasm support
The SDK supports wasm through reqwest. You'll need to enable the `futures-unsend` feature while importing it, though.
## 🌐 Running in the Browser with WASM
This crate fully supports WASM.
The only difference between the WASM and the native version is that the native version has one more variant (`Error::Http`) in the Error enum. That should not matter so much but we could add this variant in WASM too.
However, making a program intended to run in a web browser requires a **very** different design than a CLI program. To see an example of a simple Rust web app using Meilisearch, see the [our demo](./examples/web_app).
WARNING: `meilisearch-sdk` will panic if no Window is available (ex: Web extension).
## 🤖 Compatibility with Meilisearch
