Quick Start

The SearchService is your entry point for any operation with the Meilisearch engine:

• Index data
• Search
• Clear data

Retrieving the SearchService

Symfony 4 ships with a lighter container, where only core services are registered. If your controller will be responsible for search-related tasks, you can inject the SearchService into the constructor by type-hinting the SearchService interface. Symfony will take care of instantiating the right implementation for you.

<?php

namespace App\Controller;

use Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Controller\AbstractController;
use MeiliSearch\Bundle\SearchService;

class ExampleController extends AbstractController
{
    protected $searchService;

    public function __construct(SearchService $searchService)
    {
        $this->searchService = $searchService;
    }
}
