Hi HN folks!

We're just putting out the 1.0 release of ReactiveSearch Vue - https://medium.appbase.io/reactivesearch-vue-1-0-ui-componen.... It's a sister library to ReactiveSearch for React, with a similar aim of removing the pain out of building search UIs.

It takes care of querying, managing search state and updating your UI. There are 10 built-in components: https://docs.appbase.io/docs/reactivesearch/vue/overview/Sho... which can help one get started in minutes. However, it's very much designed to allow bringing in your own UI components and design systems.

Direct Github link: https://github.com/appbaseio/reactivesearch.

As someone who has built search interfaces for a decade now, these are so gorgeous. Really, really nice.

But...do you think you might ever write an adaptor for people to use them with Apache Solr, rather than ElasticSearch? makes puppydog eyes

We've been asked about this a couple of times. It's not a trivial undertaking but it's definitely something on our mind.

If you set up crowdfunding to cover the costs of the dev work, I know people who would chip in.

This is incredibly polished, so much that I kept looking for a pricing page. How are you able to cover all this with support licenses?

Thanks for the compliment. :-) The UI components would always remain open-source.

We offer a hosted search service at appbase.io which funds this and have very recently started offering it more broadly as a managed platform for any ElasticSearch upstream. It offers a better search development experience, out-of-the-box search/click analytics and more fine-grained security features: https://medium.appbase.io/appbase-io-clusters-a-supercharged....

Can confirm, I'd be one of these people. The amount of time that I spend trying to configure UIs instead of working within the Big Data pipeline is wild. This would probably save me about 20% of my current workload right off the bat if it was ported over to Solr.

seems like it only performs the search on the last word instead of the entire query. is that the expected behavior?

Not really, just seems like the dataset didn't contain any match for the first word there. Counter example: https://i.imgur.com/6Z1m1g1.png.

The way a search would work is configurable via props and you might want to set it differently than how we have with the demo. See the doc for this: https://docs.appbase.io/docs/reactivesearch/vue/search/DataS....
