Magento Lucene Search - zend-framework

Is there a way to configure the ranking of the lucene catalog search in Magento? My main problem is that I want exact-match product names to appear first, so I was wondering if I can boost the ranking of the product name in the search.

How to get Facets data when performing google retail search

I am implementing Google Retail AI and its Search service to my flutter application.
I want to let users search by typing keywords in the search bar and then get the first page of results and a whole set of facets, which helps them do further filtering or something else.
For example, if a user types "black" and then searches, there would be nearly hundreds of results. Then the first page of results would be returned to this user and the facets data returned would be used to build as a filter for a user to use, such as select brand for further filtering.
I know how to use facets key and value to perform a facets search, but I do not know how to get the facets data from the initial search to build the facets filter.
enter image description here
The image is above from google retail console, I want to build the same thing in my application.

I thought to get all products first, then use the results with group by to build this filter, but it is against the pagination, and it is absolutely not a good solution.
Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions for retrieving the facets data? L:3, Any idea related to google retail search auto-completion are also welcomed.
After few days of research, I find that the FacetSpec field in the search request is used to get the data to build filter for facet search

Category listing in magento2 in custom page

I wanted to create a custom page having all categories listed with checkbox and on click of that products should get filtered. Can anybody suggest how to go about it?
Just as an idea:
We are using Multiple Select in Layered Navigation von Manadev. There you get a Category filter which you may use.
Otherwise you may have a look at a Collection Filter as described here.
It would be quite easy to get a select with all your categories with category_id as option. Then you built your request.

Algolia - how to set anchor in facets

I've just implemented search functionality on my site using Algolia instantsearch.js library.
It automatically generates the facets based on result, then the facets work just like filters to search further in the result. I've included Topics related to the products in the facets and what I want is if someone clicks on the topic then instead of filtering the result further it should take to that particular page.
Can someone please tell me how to achieve this?
Thanks,
Raj
Hi Rajnijant we created the relevant issue in our github because this is currently not possible to do what you want to do: https://github.com/algolia/instantsearch.js/issues/791

Is there some search engine SDK or API that I can use for local search?

I have many documents located on my disk and I want to build a search engine to search through them.
I know Google Desktop Search or Bing Desktop Search could do that. But I want to know if there's some SDK/API to do that so I can do some customization.
What I want to achieve, is that I can provide a document and the local search engine will return all the documents similar to it.
In general there are Lucene and Solr that can help to solve search related needs in Java (I guess you are using Java based on the tag GWT).
But I don't know how to do a search by example with these tools. I think you have to extract the relevant information of the document to construct a search based on it.
