EdgeDB 2.0

Will be a feature of 3.0 in 6 months. We want to do it right and allow transparent integration with things like elastic, as well as allowing faceted search.

I want to build local first software backed by EdgeDB. Similar to these tools:

- https://replicache.dev

- https://github.com/tantaman/conflict-free-sqlite

- https://aphrodite.sh

I wonder if EdgeDB provides any utilities to make this already perhaps? Or community has to build some kind of CRDT software that builds on top of EdgeDB that will do local syncing? Maybe that's planned to be tackled for 3.0?

It's a great one, Ivan, thank you for writing it! :)

EdgeDB co-founder and CEO here. Ask me anything. We are streaming EdgeDB 2.0 launch event right now, join here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1jloGHV31Ow

For the rust client, is there any plan to introduce a query builder and/or generated typing? Currently it feels very sqlx like which is ok for some, but I prefer to have a bit of typing.

Does EdgeDB support full text search queries?

Yeah I really want to use EdgeDB, but I need full text search somehow.

Options would be:

1. Somehow being able to query underlying postgresql database using traditional postgres FTS queries

2. Something like ZomboDB to bring the data into ElasticSearch or other like PGroonga

3. Ideally there would be some kind of FTS within EdgeDB so no need for another service

Congrats to the team, looking forward to testing out the new changes! I'd love to see some examples on non-trivial schemas realized in EdgeQL for reference.
