Atlas Search Reference App

This is a simple NextJS app that shows how to build out search queries using Atlas Search and Atlas Vector Search.

Prerequisites

1. You will need access to an Atlas Cluster.
2. Node installed
3. Load sample data into Atlas (optional to make the default examples work)
4. Create search indexes

Load Sample Data (optional)

To get the default setup to work you need to load sample data into your Atlas Cluster.

If you opt not to use the sample data you will need to modify the variables in pages/index.js to work with your schema.

Create search indexes

You must have created your .env by copying and renaming the example.env provided as the create-search-indexes.mjs script uses these values. If you are not using the sample_mflix.embedded_movies data then you must modify the search index definitions in the script to match your schema.

Run

node create-search-indexes.mjs

Run the app

npm run dev

Modify Search Pipeline

Now you can play around with modifying the aggregation pipeline with different search options. If you run the app using the dev option then changes to the page source code will automatically cause the app to reload reflecting the new code.
