How can I implement this? A library called Whoosh seems very promising
(albeit it's so feature-rich that it's almost like shooting a fly with
a bazooka in my case), but I see two problems:
1) Whoosh is either abandoned or the project is a mess in terms of
community and support
(https://groups.google.com/g/whoosh/c/QM_P8cGi4v4 ) and
2) Whoosh seems to be a Python only thing, which is great for now,
but I wouldn't want this to become an obstacle should I need port it to
a different language at some point.
As others have noted, it sounds like relatively straightforward
implementations will be sufficient.
But I'll note that I use whoosh from time to time and I find it stable
and pleasant to work with. It's true that development stopped, but it
stopped in a very stable place. I don't recommend using whoosh here, but
I would recommend experimenting with it more generally.
