This is a minimal caching proxy for Meilisearch. It's extremely light-weight and performant.
We had issues scaling meilisearch. Meilisearch does not scale out properly, you can scale vertically but not horizontally. This proxy can cache search requests in a compatible memory store, greatly reducing the amount of requests that hit the MeiliSearch instance.
- ⚡ Fast and minimal reverse proxy
- 💾 Proxy and cache search requests (POST and GET)
- 🥡 Secure purge API per index or globally
It supports the following caching engines:
- in-memory (ristretto)
- Redis
Tested against the following MeiliSearch versions:
- v1.9
We only test with the self-hosted version, it will work with Meilisearch cloud but we cannot guarantee it.
You can install the proxy in Kubernetes using our helm chart:
helm pull oci://registry.maxroll.gg/library/meilisearch-proxy --version 0.1.5
helm install meilisearch-proxy oci://registry.maxroll.gg/library/meilisearch-proxy--version 0.1.5 \
--set meilisearch.url=http://meilisearch:7700 \
--set meilisearch.masterKey=<master_key> \
--set proxy.purgeToken=<purge_secret> \
You can also run the docker container directly:
docker run -p 7700:7700 -e MEILISEARCH_HOST=http://meilisearch-endpoint MEILISEARCH_MASTER_KEY=xxxx -it registry.maxroll.gg/library/meilisearch-proxy:latest
