Putting a full power search engine in Ecto


My diatribe about adding support for ParadeDB to Ecto

They all have certain advantages when it comes to handling partial matches, misspellings, and phonetically similar names, but aren't suitable for searching longer text passages. It accomodates basic document retrieval without the need to synchronize or Extract-Transform-Load (ETL) your data to another service, but languishes in terms of capability and ranking of results. If any folks are interested in contributing to accelerate the process, drop a PR, or message me on the Elixir Slack or Discord, @Moosieus.
