🚀 Feature: Add Sync with Meilisearch for Dart

[gewenyu99]

Appwrite Functions allow you to extend and customize your Appwrite server functionality by executing your custom code. 🤩 You can learn more at our official Appwrite Functions docs.

Your task is to implement the Sync with Meilisearch function in Dart. You can look at the existing Appwrite Functions Templates in another coding language.

Your function should behave and be implemented similarly to existing Sync with Meilisearch Node.js template.

Tasks summary:

• [ ] Fork & clone Appwrite's templates repository
• [ ] Create a branch feat-implement-sync-with-meilisearch-dart
• [ ] Write code for the function in folder dart/sync_with_meilisearch/.
• [ ] Test the function using Appwrite, provide a video.
• [ ] Write a README.md explaining what the function does, how to use it, and customize it. Here is an example.
• [ ] Submit a pull request to our templates repository

If you need any help, contact us on our Discord server.

import 'dart:convert';
import 'dart:io';
import 'utils.dart';

import 'package:http/http.dart' as http;
import 'package:meilisearch/meilisearch.dart';
import 'package:dart_appwrite/dart_appwrite.dart';

Future<void> main(final context) async {

  final requiredEnvVars = [
    'APPWRITE_API_KEY',
    'APPWRITE_DATABASE_ID',
    'APPWRITE_COLLECTION_ID',
    'MEILISEARCH_ENDPOINT',
    'MEILISEARCH_INDEX_NAME',
    'MEILISEARCH_ADMIN_API_KEY',
    'MEILISEARCH_SEARCH_API_KEY',
  ];

  throwIfMissing(Platform.environment, requiredEnvVars);

    if (context.method == 'GET') {
      final html = interpolate(await getStaticFile('index.html'), {
        'MEILISEARCH_ENDPOINT': Platform.environment['MEILISEARCH_ENDPOINT'] as String,
        'MEILISEARCH_INDEX_NAME': Platform.environment['MEILISEARCH_INDEX_NAME'] as String,
        'MEILISEARCH_SEARCH_API_KEY':
            Platform.environment['MEILISEARCH_SEARCH_API_KEY'] as String,
      });

      context.req.response
        ..headers.contentType = ContentType.html
        ..write(html)
        ..close();
    } else {

      final client = Client()
     .setEndpoint('https://cloud.appwrite.io/v1')
     .setProject(Platform.environment['APPWRITE_FUNCTION_PROJECT_ID'])
     .setKey(Platform.environment['APPWRITE_API_KEY']);

      final databases = Databases(client);

      final meilisearch = MeiliSearchClient('http://127.0.0.1:7700', Platform.environment['MEILISEARCH_ADMIN_API_KEY'] as String);

      final index = meilisearch.index(Platform.environment['MEILISEARCH_INDEX_NAME'] as String);

      String? cursor;

      do {
        final queries = [Query.limit(100)];

        if (cursor != null) {
          queries.add(Query.cursorAfter(cursor!));
        }

        final response = await databases.listDocuments(
         databaseId: Platform.environment['APPWRITE_DATABASE_ID'] as String,
         collectionId: Platform.environment['APPWRITE_COLLECTION_ID'] as String,
        queries: queries,
        );

        final documents = response['documents'];

        if (documents.isNotEmpty) {
          cursor = documents[documents.length - 1]['\$id'];
        } else {
          print('No more documents found.');
          cursor = null;
          break;
        }

        print('Syncing chunk of ${documents.length} documents ...');
        await index.addDocuments(documents, primaryKey: '\$id');
      } while (cursor != null);

      print('Sync finished.');

      context.req.response
        ..write('Sync finished.')
        ..close();
    }

}

String interpolate(String content, Map<String, String> variables) {
  for (final entry in variables.entries) {
    content = content.replaceAll('{{${entry.key}}}', entry.value);
  }
  return content;
}
