NAME

KinoSearch::Search::MultiSearcher - Aggregate results from multiple searchers.

SYNOPSIS

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

DESCRIPTION

The primary use for MultiSearcher is to aggregate results from several remote searchers via KSx::Remote::SearchClient, diffusing the cost of searching a large corpus over multiple machines. It is also possible to aggregate results from multiple Searchers on a single machine.

As a subclass of KinoSearch::Search::Searchable, MultiSearcher has nearly the same API as Searcher, except for the fact that at present, SortSpec is not supported.
