Example of using Algolia search with Angular.js
For the past week I've been investigating full text search options for my webapp. I've looked into ElasticSearch, Solr and Postgres. All options look promising - mature and used in production by many companies like Github. I've stumbled upon SaaS called Algolia which provides real time search in a similar fashion to ElasticSearch. I love SaaS for convince so I decided to give it a try.
I was happy with performance and features like typo correction, but the JQuery and Hogan examples have lots of boilerplate. I decided to rewrite them in Angular. I wrapped the library with ngResouce and kept everything simple (you shouldn't put everything in a one js file).
