New Features

​
Snapshots on-demand

A new /snapshots API route allows you to create snapshots manually whenever needed:
This route returns a summarized task object. By default, snapshots are created in the /snapshots directory, which you can customize using the --snapshot-dir configuration option.

Improvements

​
Indexing speed improvements

Indexing speed has been improved for text-heavy datasets. Datasets with fields containing more than 100 words should see a 5% to 20% reduction in indexing times. Gains are proportional to the amount of words in a document. Note: indexing speed improvements may not be visible in datasets with fewer than 20 words per field. Please be aware that this optimization might result in minor impact to search result relevancy for queries containing 4 words or more. Contact the Meilisearch team if this significantly affects your application.

​
Additional improvements

  • The experimental /metrics route can now be activated via HTTP in addition to CLI flags
  • Added Khmer language support
  • The meilitool command-line interface is now integrated into the Meilisearch Docker image, providing commands to enforce task cancellation and dump creation for stuck instances. Use meilitool --help in the running container for usage information
