Smart search over Appery database

I have an app that queries an Appery database that contains lots of free text.

Users can enter keywords in an input element.

I would like to implement a smart search - similar to google - to capture the keyword or keywords entered.

My current keyword search works fine, but it's not smart. For example, synonyms/multiple keywords are not captured.

I know how to improve all these features, but I was wondering if there's a plugin that you could point me to that I could use. If not, could you tell me where could I search for plugins that improve the database search?

Thank you,
Frank

Smart search over Appery database

Hi Frank, are you familiar with serverCode ?
what I have is not a plug in. it's only that I developed the kind of tool you are looking for in server code. it accepts up to 3 keywords, ..., check all lowerCase, initial as upperCase, ... get some of the txt around the targeted words and put your targeted word in bold.
it can for sure be improved :)
if you think you can take over from that stage, I wld be happy to send you the raw code listing.
tell me,
Eric

HI EJLD, Im looking for the same thing; i am attempting to make a question answer app, and currently you need to type the exact question in order to return the question data from the database, it would be a great help if you could send me the code for a smart search, thanks!
