release notes

Meilisearch v1.1.0 introduces the much-requested multi-index search! You can now use one single HTTP request to perform different searches in multiple indexes.

Additional new features include: the geoBoundingBox geosearch filter, the addition of a facetStats object to queries using the facets search parameter, and the customization of CSV separators.

🧰 All official Meilisearch integrations (including SDKs, clients, and other tools) are compatible with this Meilisearch release. Integration deployment happens between 4 to 48 hours after a new version becomes available.

Some SDKs might not include all new features—consult the project repository for detailed information. Is a feature you need missing from your chosen SDK? Create an issue letting us know you need it, or, for open-source karma points, open a PR implementing it (we'll love you for that <3).

New features and improvements 🔥

Multi-index search: allow multiple searches in a single request

Perform searches in multiple indexes in a single HTTP request using the new /multi-search endpoint:

curl \
  -X POST 'http://localhost:7700/multi-search' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data-binary '{
    "queries": [
      {
        "indexUid": "products",
        "q": "Nike",
        "limit": 1
      },
      {
        "indexUid": "brands",
        "q": "Nike",
        "limit": 1
      }
    ]
  }'

When you use the multi-index search endpoint, Meilisearch returns an array of results for each queried index:

{
	"results": [
	  {
	    "indexUid": "products",
	    "hits": […],
	    "query": "Nike",
	    "processingTimeMs": 1,
	    "limit": 1,
	    "offset": 0,
	    "estimatedTotalHits": 17
	  },
	  {
	    "indexUid": "brands",
	    "hits": […],
	    "query": "Nike",
	    "processingTimeMs": 0,
	    "limit": 1,
	    "offset": 0,
	    "estimatedTotalHits": 7
	  }
	]
}

Introduce `facetStats`

Queries containing the facets parameter now include a facetStats object by default:

curl \
  -X POST 'http://localhost:7700/indexes/movies/search' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data-binary '{
    "facets": ["price"]
  }'

facetStats only lists facets containing numerical values. Facets with other types of values are not included in the facetStats object. This object contains the minimum (min) and the maximum (max) of each numerical facet:

{
  "hits": […],
  "facetDistribution": {
    "price": {…}
  },
  "facetStats": {
    "price": {
      "min": 2,
      "max": 60
    }
  }
}

Done by @dureuill in #3423.

New geosearch filter: `_geoBoundingBox`

Use the filter search parameter and the _geoBoundingBox filter expression to obtain results contained within a specific geographic area.

curl \
  -X POST 'http://localhost:7700/indexes/restaurants/search' \
  -H 'Content-type:application/json' \
  --data-binary '{ "filter": "_geoBoundingBox([45.472735, 9.184019],[45.473711, 9.185613] )" }'

_geoBoundingBox([lat, lng], [lat, lng]) accepts two parameters: one array specifying the top right corner, and a second array specifying the bottom left corner.

Done by @gmourier and @irevoire in #3405 and #3529.

Removing limits on index size and count

Meilisearch no longer limits the size nor the amount of indexes a single instance may contain. You can now create an unlimited number of indexes, whose maximum size will be only dictated by the memory address space devoted to a single process by the OS. Under Linux, the limit is at about 80TiB.

Done by @dureuill in #3319, #3331 and #3544.

Experimental feature: monitor Meilisearch usage with Prometheus

This release introduces an experimental feature allowing you to monitor metrics with Prometheus.

When launching Meilisearch, use the following flag:

meilisearch --experimental-enable-metrics

The /metrics route will be available and compatible with Prometheus.

🗣️ Since this feature is experimental, we need your help to iterate on it! You are more than welcome to share your thoughts and your feedback on this discussion.

⚠️ The experimental feature API can break between Meilisearch versions. Be careful if using it in production.

Done by @irevoire, @dureuill, and @james-2001 in #3496, #3524, #3538 and #3543.

Improve language support

Enhance Greek support by normalizing diacritics and final sigma
Enhance Arabic support by ignoring Tatweel
Enhance language detection: detection now happens during indexing, reducing erroneous language recognition during search

🇯🇵 For people using Japanese datasets, language detection might still fail on small datasets. For instance, a song dataset that only contains titles in Japanese will still be detected as Chinese. If you encounter any issue, we recommend you use this prototype which is an alternative version of Meilisearch v1.1 for Japanese users. Please, let us know about any feedback you may have in this dicussion.

Done in #3347, #3569 and on Charabia by @choznerol, @cymruu, @james-2001 and @ManyTheFish.
