Implementing full-text search with Whoosh
Whoosh is a fast, featureful, full-text indexing and searching library that's implemented in Python. It has a pure Pythonic API and allows developers to add search functionality to their applications easily and efficiently. In this recipe, we will use a package called Flask-WhooshAlchemy, which integrates the text-search functionality of Whoosh with SQLAlchemy for use in Flask applications.
