Tachyon

What it does

Tachyon is an open-source, self-hosted full-text search engine in Rust - BM25 relevance, typo tolerance, facets, filters, autocomplete. No JVM, no cluster. Ships as a single 8.7MB binary. docker run -p 8108:8108 adikeshri/tachyon:latest and it's up.

Tachyon is an open-source search engine designed for fast full-text search without the operational complexity of heavyweight search infrastructure.

Fast, self-hosted full-text search without the operational complexity of heavyweight search infrastructure. Search infrastructure doesn't need to be complicated. Tachyon provides the core capabilities developers need to build fast application search while remaining lightweight, self-hostable, and easy to operate. Run Tachyon, create a collection, index documents, search. That's the whole workflow. docker run -p 8108:8108 adikeshri/tachyon 2. Create a collection bash curl -X POST localhost:8108/collections \ -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \ -d '{ "name": "products", "fields": [ {"name": "title", "type": "text"}, {"name": "description", "type": "text"}, {"name": "brand", "type":…from tachyon.adityakeshri.com

  Strict interfaces and dep management for Python, written in Rust2024 · github.com · ▲68

  Tach is a pip package that lets you define module boundaries, automatically detect all cross-module dependencies, and then validate and enforce those dependencies. It also supports strict interfaces for modules by overloading `__all__`. The core static analysis is done in Rust, so all Tach commands run quickly. The goal of Tach is to help eng teams maintain velocity while scaling quickly, something we've seen break down a number of times. Give it a try!

  Tach – Visualize and untangle your Python codebase2025 · github.com · ▲263

  Hey everyone! We're Evan and Caelean, the authors of Tach. Tach lets you visualize the architecture of your Python codebase, and gives you the tools to incrementally improve it. It uses module boundaries to give teams the benefits of microservices without the deployment complexity. If your code has been getting tangled up as your team and codebase grows, Tach helps you move back in the right direction, incrementally and quickly. You can use Tach to incrementally adopt a "modular monolith" architecture [1], for better local reasoning and smoother feature development. Since our last Show HN…

  Talanoa▲345

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  Clipto MCP▲655

  Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

  Simple algorithm and color space to generate diverse skin tones▲627

  Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
