[Typesense](https://typesense.org) client for [Elixir](https://elixir-lang.org) with support for your Ecto schemas.
> #### OpenAPI adherence {: .tip}
>
> Under the hood, this library utilizes [open_api_typesense](https://github.com/jaeyson/open_api_typesense)
> to make sure it adheres to [Typesense's OpenAPI spec](https://github.com/typesense/typesense-api-spec).
> #### upgrading to `1.0.0` contains **LOTS** of breaking changes. {: .warning}
## Installation
ExTypesense requires Elixir `~> 1.14.x`. Read the [Changelog](CHANGELOG.md) for all available
releases and requirements. This library is published to both [Hex.pm](https://hex.pm/ex_typesense)
and [GitHub ](https://github.com/jaeyson/ex_typesense.git) repository.
Add `:ex_typesense` to your list of dependencies in the Elixir project config file, `mix.exs`:
```elixir
def deps do
[
# From default Hex package manager
{:ex_typesense, "~> 1.0"}
# Or from GitHub repository, if you want the latest greatest from main branch
{:ex_typesense, git: "https://github.com/jaeyson/ex_typesense.git"}
]
end
```
## Getting started
### 0. (Optional) Run local Typesense instance
If you want to try this library locally:
```bash
docker compose up -d
```
More info on spinning a local instance: https://typesense.org/docs/guide/install-typesense.html
Otherwise, go to step #1 if you're using [Cloud hosted](https://cloud.typesense.org) instance instead.
### 1. Add credential to config
After you have setup a [local](./guides/running_local_typesense.md) Typesense or
[Cloud hosted](https://cloud.typesense.org) instance, there are 2 ways to set the credentials:
<!-- tabs-open -->
### using config
Option 1: Set credentials via config (e.g. `config/runtime.exs`)
```elixir
# e.g. config/runtime.exs
if config_env() == :prod do # if you'll use this in prod environment
config :open_api_typesense,
api_key: "xyz",
host: "localhost",
port: 8108,
scheme: "http"
...
```
> #### `options` key {: .tip}
>
> The `options` key can be used to pass additional configuration
> options such as custom Finch instance or receive timeout
> settings. You can add any options supported by Req here. For
> more details check [Req documentation](https://hexdocs.pm/req/Req.Steps.html#run_finch/1-request-options).
> #### during tests {: .tip}
>
> If you have a different config for your app, consider
> adding it in `config/test.exs`.
For Cloud hosted, you can generate and obtain the credentials from cluster instance admin interface:
```elixir
config :open_api_typesense,
api_key: "credential", # Admin API key
host: "111222333aaabbbcc-9.x9.typesense.net", # Nodes
port: 443,
scheme: "https"
```
### using map
Option 2: Set credentials from a map
> #### optional `conn` {: .tip}
>
> By default you don't need to pass connections every
> time you use a function, if you use "Option 1" above.
You may have a `Connection` Ecto schema in your app and want to pass your own creds dynamically:
```elixir
defmodule MyApp.Credential do
schema "credentials" do
field :node, :string
field :secret_key, :string
field :port, :integer
end
end
```
As long as the keys matches in [`OpenApiTypesense.Connection.t()`](https://hexdocs.pm/open_api_typesense/OpenApiTypesense.Connection.html#t:t/0):
```elixir
credential = MyApp.Credential |> where(id: ^8888) |> Repo.one()
conn = %{
host: credential.node,
api_key: credential.secret_key,
port: credential.port,
scheme: "https"
}
# NOTE: create a collection and import documents
# first before using the command below
ExTypesense.search(conn, collection_name, query)
```
Or convert your struct to map, as long as the keys matches in [`OpenApiTypesense.Connection.t()`](https://hexdocs.pm/open_api_typesense/OpenApiTypesense.Connection.html#t:t/0):
```elixir
conn = Map.from_struct(MyApp.Credential)
# NOTE: create a collection and import documents
# first before using the command below
ExTypesense.search(conn, collection_name, query)
```
Or you don't want to change the fields in your Ecto schema, thus you convert it to map:
```elixir
conn = %Credential{
node: "localhost",
secret_key: "xyz",
port: 8108,
scheme: "http"
}
conn =
conn
|> Map.from_struct()
|> Map.drop([:node, :secret_key])
|> Map.put(:host, conn.node)
|> Map.put(:api_key, conn.secret_key)
# NOTE: create a collection and import documents
# first before using the command below
ExTypesense.search(conn, collection_name, query)
```
Or just plain map
```elixir
conn = %{
host: "127.0.0.1",
api_key: "xyz",
port: 8108,
scheme: "http"
}
ExTypesense.health(conn)
```
<!-- tabs-close -->
### 2. Create a collection
There are 2 ways to create a collection, either via
[Ecto schema](https://hexdocs.pm/ecto/Ecto.Schema.html) or using map
([an Elixir data type](https://hexdocs.pm/elixir/keywords-and-maps.html#maps-as-key-value-pairs)):
<!-- tabs-open -->
### using Ecto schema
> #### added fk in schema {: .info}
>
> The format we're using is `<TABLE_NAME>_id`. If you have table e.g. named `persons`,
> it'll be `persons_id`.
>
> `persons_id` is of type `integer`: read the discussion on why
> we need to add [default_sorting_field](https://github.com/typesense/typesense/issues/72#issuecomment-645725013).
```elixir
defmodule Person do
use Ecto.Schema
@behaviour ExTypesense
# In this example, we're adding `persons_id`
# that points to the id of `persons` schema.
defimpl Jason.Encoder, for: __MODULE__ do
def encode(value, opts) do
value
|> Map.take([:id, :persons_id, :name, :country])
|> Enum.map(fn {key, val} ->
cond do
key === :id -> {key, to_string(Map.get(value, :id))}
key === :persons_id -> {key, Map.get(value, :id)}
true -> {key, val}
end
end)
|> Enum.into(%{})
|> Jason.Encode.map(opts)
end
end
schema "persons" do
field(:name, :string)
field(:country, :string)
field(:persons_id, :integer, virtual: true)
end
@impl ExTypesense
def get_field_types do
name = __MODULE__.__schema__(:source)
primary_field = name <> "_id"
%{
name: name,
default_sorting_field: primary_field,
fields: [
%{name: primary_field, type: "int32"},
%{name: "name", type: "string"},
%{name: "country", type: "string"}
]
}
end
end
```
Next, create the collection from a module name.
```elixir
ExTypesense.create_collection(Person)
```
### using map
```elixir
schema = %{
name: "companies",
fields: [
%{name: "company_name", type: "string"},
%{name: "companies_id", type: "int32"},
%{name: "country", type: "string"}
],
default_sorting_field: "companies_id"
}
ExTypesense.create_collection(schema)
```
<!-- tabs-close -->
### 3. Indexing documents
<!-- tabs-open -->
### single (Ecto)
```elixir
Post |> Repo.get!(123) |> ExTypesense.index_document()
```
### multiple (Ecto)
```elixir
Post |> Repo.all() |> ExTypesense.import_documents()
```
### single (map)
```elixir
document = %{
collection_name: "companies",
company_name: "Test",
doc_companies_id: 103,
country: "AL"
}
ExTypesense.index_document(document)
# or explicitly pass the collection name
document = %{
company_name: "Test",
doc_companies_id: 103,
country: "AL"
}
ExTypesense.index_document("companies", document)
```
### multiple (list of maps)
```elixir
multiple_documents = [
%{
company_name: "Boca Cola",
doc_companies_id: 827,
country: "SG"
},
%{
company_name: "Motor, Inc.",
doc_companies_id: 549,
country: "TW"
}
]
ExTypesense.import_documents("companies", multiple_documents)
```
<!-- tabs-close -->
### 4. Search
```elixir
params = %{q: "John Doe", query_by: "name"}
# using string collection name
ExTypesense.search(schema.name, params)
# or module name
ExTypesense.search(Person, params)
```
Check [Cheatsheet](https://hexdocs.pm/ex_typesense/cheatsheet.html) for more usage examples.
## Miscellaneous
## Adding [cache, retry, compress_body](https://hexdocs.pm/req/Req.html#new/1) in the built in client
E.g. when a user wants to change `retry` and `cache` options
```elixir
ExTypesense.get_collection("companies", req: [retry: false, cache: true])
```
See implementation: https://github.com/jaeyson/open_api_typesense/blob/main/lib/open_api_typesense/client.ex#L82
### Use non-default Finch adapter
For instance, in a scenario where an application has multiple Finch pools configured for
different services, a developer might want to specify a particular Finch pool for the
`HttpClient` to use. This can be achieved by configuring the options as follows:
```elixir
config :open_api_typesense,
api_key: "XXXXXX",
#...
options: [finch: MyApp.CustomFinch] # <- add options
```
In this example, `MyApp.CustomFinch` is a custom Finch pool that the developer has
configured with specific connection options or other settings that differ from the
default Finch pool.
## Using another client
By default this library is using [Req](https://hexdocs.pm/req/readme.html). In order to use another HTTP client,
OpenApiTypesense has a callback function ([Behaviours](https://hexdocs.pm/elixir/typespecs.html#behaviours))
called `request` that contains 2 args:
1. `conn`: your connection map
2. `params`: payload, header, and client-related stuffs.
> #### `conn` and `params` {: .info}
>
> you can change the name `conn` and/or `params` however you want,
> since it's just a variable.
Here's a custom client example ([HTTPoison](https://hexdocs.pm/httpoison/readme.html)) in order to match the usage:
<!-- tabs-open -->
### Client module
```elixir
defmodule MyApp.CustomClient do
@behaviour OpenApiTypesense.Client
@impl OpenApiTypesense.Client
def request(conn, params) do
url = %URI{
scheme: conn.scheme,
host: conn.host,
port: conn.port,
path: params.url,
query: URI.encode_query(params[:query] || %{})
}
|> URI.to_string()
request = %HTTPoison.Request{method: params.method, url: url}
request =
if params[:request] do
[{content_type, _schema}] = params.request
headers = [
{"X-TYPESENSE-API-KEY", conn.api_key}
{"Content-Type", content_type}
]
%{request | headers: headers}
else
request
end
request =
if params[:body] do
%{request | body: Jason.encode!(params.body)}
else
request
end
HTTPoison.request!(request)
end
end
```
### Client config
```elixir
config :open_api_typesense,
api_key: "xyz", # Admin API key
host: "localhost", # Nodes
port: 8108,
scheme: "http",
client: MyApp.CustomClient # <- add this
```
