upstash-search-js

Work with the @upstash/search TypeScript/JavaScript SDK, a serverless full-text and semantic search database with built-in reranking. Use when adding search to an app or site, creating a search index, upserting documents with searchable content and filterable metadata, running keyword, semantic, or hybrid search queries, reranking results, filtering with SQL-like or structured filter syntax, paginating with range, fetching or deleting documents, resetting an index, or checking index info. Also use when the user asks for site search, product, document, or knowledge-base search, or a managed search service that needs no cluster to run.

Upstash Search Documentation

Quick Start

Install the TS SDK:

npm install @upstash/search

Create a client and perform a simple upsert + search:

import { Search } from "@upstash/search";

const client = new Search({ url: process.env.UPSTASH_SEARCH_REST_URL, token: process.env.UPSTASH_SEARCH_REST_TOKEN });
const index = client.index("my-index");

await index.upsert({ id: "1", content: { text: "hello world" } });
const results = await index.search({ query: "hello" });

Basic steps:

  • Create an index
  • Insert or update documents
  • Run searches or filtered queries
