The SearchAPI is the little brother of the TextAPI and meant to search for content delivered via TextAPI resources. The SearchAPI specifies an interface to search engines responses. The incomming query is usually forwarded to the search engine, so SearchAPI is agnostic to the engine type. The specification offers a way to tell the client about the search capabilities and features, e.g. supported syntax and or what filters and facetts can be returned.
SearchAPI is available for most of the digitale editions listed at the showcase page but also for the TextGrid Repository.
