🚀 Getting Started

Add Documents

import 'package:meilisearch/meilisearch.dart';

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

  // An index is where the documents are stored.
  var index = client.index('movies');

  const documents = [
    { 'id': 1, 'title': 'Carol', 'genres': ['Romance', 'Drama'] },
    { 'id': 2, 'title': 'Wonder Woman', 'genres': ['Action', 'Adventure'] },
    { 'id': 3, 'title': 'Life of Pi', 'genres': ['Adventure', 'Drama'] },
    { 'id': 4, 'title': 'Mad Max: Fury Road', 'genres': ['Adventure', 'Science Fiction'] },
    { 'id': 5, 'title': 'Moana', 'genres': ['Fantasy', 'Action']},
    { 'id': 6, 'title': 'Philadelphia', 'genres': ['Drama'] },
  ]

  // If the index 'movies' does not exist, Meilisearch creates it when you first add the documents.
  var task = await index.addDocuments(documents); // => { "uid": 0 }
}

With the uid, you can check the status (enqueued, processing, succeeded or failed) of your documents addition using the task.

var result = await index.search('carlo');

print(result.hits);

  {
    "id": 1,
    "title": "Carol",
    "genres": ["Romance", "Drama"]
  }
]

        {

            "title": "Carol",
            "_formatted": {
                "id": 1,
                "title": "<em>Carol</em>"
            }
        }
