DDEV Manticore Search

What is Manticore Search?

Manticore Search is an open-source database that was created in 2017 as a continuation of the Sphinx Search engine.

Installation

For DDEV v1.23.5 or above run

ddev add-on get bricebou/ddev-manticoresearch && ddev restart

For earlier versions of DDEV run

ddev get bricebou/ddev-manticoresearch && ddev restart

This add-on for DDEV installs the following files :

• .ddev/docker-compose.manticoresearch.yaml wich is responsible for launching the service;
• a .ddev/manticoresearch/manticore.conf

Using PHP for your configuration file

If you want to use PHP language inside your configuration file, you’ll have to follow these steps:

• edit the .ddev/docker-compose.manticoresearch.yaml file, replacing the line

    image: manticoresearch/manticore
  

  with

    build:
      args:
        BASE_IMAGE: manticoresearch/manticore
      context: .
      dockerfile: ./manticoresearch/Dockerfile
  

• then, you have to create the .ddev/manticoresearch/Dockerfile :

  ARG BASE_IMAGE
  FROM $BASE_IMAGE
  ARG DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive
  RUN apt update && apt -y install php
  

• edit the .ddev/manticoresearch/manticore.conf according to your need, replacing the actual shebang with #!/usr/bin/env php
• run ddev restart
