🚀 Getting Started

Add Documents

import 'package:meilisearch/meilisearch.dart';

void main() async {
  var client = MeiliSearchClient('http://127.0.0.1:7700', 'masterKey');

  // An index where books are stored.
  var index = await client.createIndex('books');

  var documents = [
    { 'book_id': 123,  'title': 'Pride and Prejudice' },
    { 'book_id': 456,  'title': 'Le Petit Prince' },
    { 'book_id': 1,    'title': 'Alice In Wonderland' },
    { 'book_id': 1344, 'title': 'The Hobbit' },
    { 'book_id': 4,    'title': 'Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince' },
    { 'book_id': 42,   'title': 'The Hitchhiker\'s Guide to the Galaxy' }
  ];

  // Add documents into index we just created.
  var update = await index.addDocuments(documents); // => { "updateId": 0 }
}

With the updateId, you can check the status (enqueued, processed or failed) of your documents addition using the update endpoint.

    "hits": [
        {

            "title": "Le Petit Prince",
            "_formatted": {
                "book_id": 456,
