Typesense

Typesense

Official

Docker app from Eurotimmy's Repository

Overview

Typesense is an open-source, typo-tolerant search engine focused on simplicity, performance and developer ergonomics. It supports fast full-text search with faceting/filtering, synonyms, geosearch and vector search. This template deploys the official Typesense container (v29.0) on Unraid, exposing the HTTP API on port 8108 and persisting data to /data. On first start you must set a bootstrap Admin API key (TYPESENSE_API_KEY). You can later create scoped keys for front-end clients. CORS can be enabled for browser apps via TYPESENSE_ENABLE_CORS. :: IMPORTANT NOTES :: • You must set TYPESENSE_DATA_DIR=/data (already included) otherwise the server will exit with 'Invalid configuration: Data directory is not specified'. • Back up the mapped /data directory; Typesense rebuilds in-memory indexes from it on restart. • Do not expose the Admin API publicly. Place behind a reverse proxy and restrict access/origins as appropriate. • Documentation: Server configuration and environment variables, API keys, and backups are covered in the official docs.
