Installation

Install the Plugin

$ composer require meilisearch/meilisearch-laravel-scout

$ composer require guzzlehttp/guzzle

If you already have guzzle installed with a version < 7, don't forget to update the version inside your composer.json

"require": {
  "guzzlehttp/guzzle": "^7.0"
}

Guzzle 6:

$ composer require php-http/guzzle6-adapter

Symfony Http Client:

$ composer require symfony/http-client nyholm/psr7

Curl:

$ composer require php-http/curl-client nyholm/psr7

Export configuration

$ php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Laravel\Scout\ScoutServiceProvider"
$ php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Meilisearch\Scout\MeilisearchServiceProvider" --tag="config"

Update .env

MEILISEARCH_HOST=http://127.0.0.1:7700
MEILISEARCH_KEY=masterKey

Run MeiliSearch

There are many easy ways to download and run a MeiliSearch instance.

For example, if you use Docker:

$ docker run -it --rm -p 7700:7700 getmeili/meilisearch:latest ./meilisearch --master-key=masterKey

NB: you can also download MeiliSearch from Homebrew or APT.

Getting Started

Indexes

Create an index

// Create an index
$ php artisan scout:index books
// Create an index and give the primary-key
$ php artisan scout:index books --key book_id

Add document

<?php

use Laravel\Scout\Searchable;

class Book extends Model
{
    use Searchable;
}

<?php

class BookController extends Controller
{
    public function store()
    {
        $book = new Book();
        $book->title = 'Pride and Prejudice';
        ...
        $book->save();
    }
}

You can also import all your table to meilisearch by using the artisan command:

$ php artisan scout:import "App\Book"

Search in index

class BookController extends Controller
{
    public function search()
    {
        // MeiliSearch is typo-tolerant:
        Book::search('harry pottre')->get();
        // Or if you want to get the result from meilisearch:
        Book::search('harry pottre')->raw();
    }
}

Delete documents

class BookController extends Controller
{
    public function destroy($id)
    {
        // Delete one document
        Book::find($id)->delete();
        // Delete several documents
        Book::destroy([1, 42]);
        // Delete all documents /!\
        Book::query()->delete();
    }
}

or you can use the artisan command to delete all documents from an index:

$ php artisan scout:flush "App\Book"

Delete an index

$ php artisan scout:index -d books

Search

Custom search

All the supported options are described in the search parameters section of the documentation.

class BookController extends Controller
{
    public function customSearch()
    {
        Book::search('prince', function (Indexes $meilisearch, $query, $options) {
            $options['filters'] = 'author="Antoine de Saint-Exupéry"';

            return $meilisearch->search($query, $options);
        })->take(3)->get();
    }
}

Pagination

class BookController extends Controller
{
    public function search()
    {
        Book::search('mustang')->paginate();
        // with a limit of items per page:
        Book::search('mustang')->paginate(5);
        // using meilisearch response:
        Book::search('mustang')->paginateRaw();
    }
}
