Quick Start (Docker Compose)

cd deploy/docker
docker compose up -d
# Proxy ready at http://localhost:7800

Requires: meilisearch v1.43 and redis:7-alpine images cached locally (or via mirror).

基本使用示例

curl -X POST http://localhost:7800/indexes \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"uid":"products","primaryKey":"id"}'

# 添加文档
curl -X POST http://localhost:7800/indexes/products/documents \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '[{"id":"1","title":"Product A","price":100},{"id":"2","title":"Product B","price":200}]'

# 搜索
curl -X POST http://localhost:7800/indexes/products/search \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"q":"Product","limit":10}'

# 检查健康状态
curl http://localhost:7800/health

# 查看指标
curl http://localhost:7800/metrics

Deployment

Docker Compose (3 Meili + Redis + Proxy)

cd deploy/docker
docker compose up -d

Meili nodes on ports 7700-7702 (internal 7800)
Proxy on port 7800
Redis (internal only, no exposed port)

Kubernetes

kubectl apply -f deploy/k8s/redis.yaml
kubectl apply -f deploy/k8s/meilisearch-statefulset.yaml
kubectl apply -f deploy/k8s/meilishard-deployment.yaml

Build from source

Requires Go 1.26+.

go build -o meilishard .
./meilishard etc/config.json

Sharding Strategies

Strategy	Description
`hash` (default)	Consistent hashing with CRC32 + 150 virtual nodes per node
`mod`	Simple modulo-based sharding
`range`	Range-based sharding (configurable ranges)
`custom`	Custom strategy via `ShardStrategy` interface + global registry

Strategies are registered in router/strategy.go. Implement the ShardStrategy interface and register via RegisterStrategy(name, strategy).

高并发优化说明

1. Redis 连接池

// 创建高性能 Redis 连接池
redisClient := NewRedisClientWithPool("localhost:6379", "password", PoolConfig{
    MaxConns: 100,    // 最大连接数
    MinConns: 10,     // 最小连接数
    MaxIdle: 50,      // 最大空闲连接
})

// 批量操作
results, missed, err := redisClient.GetMulti([]string{"key1", "key2"})

2. Worker Pool

// 创建工作池，防止 goroutine 爆炸
pool := NewWorkerPool(PoolConfig{
    Workers:   20,    // 并发工作数
    QueueSize: 10000, // 队列大小
})

// 批量处理文档
for _, doc := range documents {
    pool.Submit(func() error {
        return client.AddDocuments(index, doc)
    })
}
pool.Wait()

3. 百亿级索引优化

// 查询优化器
optimizer := NewQueryOptimizer()

// 预聚合配置
optimizer.preAggregator.UpdateIndex("products", "category", "terms", map[string]int64{
    "electronics": 100000,
    "computers":   50000,
})

// 查询剪枝
optimizedQuery := optimizer.queryPruner.PruneQuery("products", query)

// 自适应负载均衡
bestNode := optimizer.loadBalancer.SelectNode()

Zero External Dependencies

MeiliShard uses only the Go standard library:

net/http — HTTP server and client
crypto/sha256 — cache key hashing
hash/crc32 — consistent hash ring
sync — concurrency primitives
encoding/json — JSON handling
Custom RESP client for Redis (net package)

Testing

Unit tests

go test ./... -v -count=1

Integration tests (requires Docker cluster)

# Start cluster
cd deploy/docker
docker compose up -d

# Wait for healthy then run
go test -tags=integration ./tests/ -v -count=1
go test -tags=integration ./cache/ -v -count=1
go test -tags=integration ./cluster/ -v -count=1
