TNTSearch is a full-text search engine written entirely in PHP that builds inverted indexes stored in SQLite, MySQL, or Redis. It returns ranked document IDs for text queries, supporting fuzzy, boolean, and geo search with BM25/TF-IDF relevance scoring.
Use cases
- add full-text search to a php website
- replace slow mysql LIKE queries with a proper search index
- add search to a laravel app without running elasticsearch
- implement fuzzy search-as-you-type suggestions
- index and search a few hundred thousand records quickly
- add geo-distance aware search to a php project
When to choose
- you need search in a PHP project without deploying external services like Elasticsearch
- your dataset is small to medium and a single-server index suffices
- you want a Laravel Scout driver with minimal configuration
When to avoid
- you need distributed, horizontally scalable search across many nodes
- you need advanced features like aggregations, faceting, or real-time multi-tenant indexing
- your stack is not PHP
