Location: zoom only (https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/YWHHPtzDSDS6TEFD4u0WsA)”
topic:
The topic will be SQLite full text search. Some things I can cover:
* Building a full text search index with the FTS5 extension
* FTS queries and operators
* Custom search ranking weights
* A demo using taxonomy data (scientific and common names)The only prerequisite is basic familiarity with SQL and relational databases. No need to already know how full text search engines (Elasticsearch, Algolia, etc.) work. I might do parts of the demo in python, but I probably won’t get into anything too python-specific.
