Pretty cool. Instead of elastic search you could also use SQLite5 with its full text search support.

  That + ripgrep is how we're planning to do full-text search in ArchiveBox.io, seems much more appealing than running a full ElasticSearch cluster.

    A grisly death is more appealing than running a full Elasticsearch cluster :)

    Can't wait to see it! Nice combo.

  First, I love that this exists. I was playing around with exactly the same concept (text files w/structured front matter as a personal knowledge base) a few months ago, but didn’t get as far. I think the Elasticsearch dependency is overkill, specifically because it precludes deployment on a corporately-managed computer where you can run Python but not Elasticsearch. It would be great to have an option to use a pure python search tool like Woosh [0]. This would trade away some search power for significant portability gains. I might do a fork for this!

    I'm actually thinking of making this an option here: https://github.com/Uzay-G/archivy/issues/13 https://github.com/Uzay-G/archivy/issues/13. It'd be nice to have those two choices.
