KinoSe...archer(3pm)

🦋 KinoSearch1::Search::MultiSearcher 🦋

okay bestie, quick vibe check first: this page comes from User Contributed Perl Documentation, manual section 3pm, and the class itself is lowkey a dummy class — it's only here to support initialization of Weights from Queries. yes fr, that's literally its whole job description. 🙈

✨ NAME ✨

KinoSearch1::Search::MultiSearcher — aggregate results from multiple searchers. that's it, that's the girl 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

for my $server_name (@server_names) {
    push @searchers, KinoSearch1::Search::SearchClient->new(
        peer_address => "$server_name:$port",
        analyzer     => $analyzer,
        password     => $pass,
    );
}
my $multi_searcher = KinoSearch1::Search::MultiSearcher->new(
    searchables => \@searchers,
    analyzer    => $analyzer,
);
my $hits = $multi_searcher->search( query => $query );

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so here's the tea 🍓: aside from the arguments you hand to its constructor, MultiSearcher looks and acts just like a KinoSearch1::Searcher object. same energy, same moves, no cap.

the main character use case here is gluing together results from several remote searchers via SearchClient — which is the moment where you get to diffuse the cost of searching a huge corpus across multiple machines. it's giving "divide and conquer" but make it cute. 🌈

✨ METHODS ✨

new

constructor, babes. takes two hash-style parameters, and bestie, both of them are required — no skipping, no shortcuts, we don't do that here. 🫶

• analyzer — an item which subclasses KinoSearch1::Analysis::Analyzer.
• searchables — a reference to an array of searchers.
