The Meilisearch extension for Magento 2 enables replacing Magento's default search engine (OpenSearch) with Meilisearch.
Replaces the storefront read path with OpenSearch to hydrate products, categories, reviews, and option labels from the index, slashing SQL and speeding PDPs, search, and navigation. Includes real-time indexing, instant search with live facets and AI-tuned relevance, a fast checkout pipeline, and a CLI doctor to verify setup.
Implements semantic search by embedding product text via an external AI server and storing vectors in OpenSearch k‑NN, with fallback to keyword search. Includes architecture, installation/configuration, system requirements, performance estimates, and support for Luma and headless GraphQL.
Checks and exposes Elasticsearch cluster health on a schedule via cron and on demand through admin/CLI, with simple Composer installation steps.
Mage Dispatch is a community-run archive and bi-weekly newsletter for the Magento, Adobe Commerce and Mage-OS ecosystem. Modules, articles, security advisories and tools, hand-picked by developers and shared so good work does not disappear into the void.
