Riot is a distributed full-text search engine library written in Go, featuring efficient indexing, Chinese word segmentation via gse, BM25 scoring, and realtime index updates. It is a beta V1 with high memory consumption, and a full V2 rewrite was planned but the project has seen little activity since 2020.

Use cases

  • add full-text search to a Go application
  • index millions of documents quickly in memory
  • search Chinese text with word segmentation
  • build a distributed search cluster in Go
  • rank search results with BM25 and custom scoring
  • perform realtime indexing with online add and delete

When to choose

  • you need an embeddable search engine in Go without external services
  • your corpus includes Chinese text needing segmentation
  • you want BM25 ranking and custom scoring rules built in
  • you need distributed indexing and search

When to avoid

  • you need a production-grade, actively maintained search engine (prefer Elasticsearch, Meilisearch, or Bleve)
  • memory footprint is a concern, since V1 consumes large amounts of memory
  • you need long-term support, as the project has been inactive since 2020
