meilisearch/meilisearch v0.22.0

on GitHub

Breaking changes

• New syntax for custom ranking rules:

# new syntax
"price:asc"

# old syntax (deprecated)
"asc(price)"

• New indexer integration
  We completely rewrote the indexer in order to:
  • Fix crashes and RAM consumption issues
  • Increase indexation speed
  • Fix indexation bugs

Using the new indexer requires re-indexation of all your documents. This will be done automatically when migrating your data from a previous version. For more information on how to update to the latest version of MeiliSearch, read our dedicated guide.

New features

• Sort at query time. For more information, read our dedicated guide
  ⚠️ If you import your data via a dump, the sort ranking rule must be added manually. Check your ranking rules via the GET indexes/:ui/settings/ranking-rules route. If the sort is not listed, you can add it to the 5th position using the POST indexes/:uid/settings route.
• Make the download script compatible with Windows (requires Cygwin or equivalent)
• Custom ranking rules now work with fields containing strings, not only numbers

Misc

• Remove Sentry
• Remove Dependabot: updating dependencies has been integrated into our sprint process
• Improve Docker CIs
• Update README
