👋 Hi everyone! Happy to be here and excited to start using Typesense. I am building an iOS app which uses Firestore. I went through the installation instructions listed here and got everything set up, my data backfilled and ready to be searched against. Apologies if this was asked before but now that everything is set-up, does one of you know how do I start a query from the iOS app? The collection name is

users

and im trying to search against the

fullName

attribute. What should I call from the client side? Usually a simple query would be done as follows for instance:

db.collection("users")
            .whereField("fullName", isEqualTo: "some value here")
            .limit(to: recordLimit)
            .getDocuments(source: firestoreSource) { ... }

Does someone know what the equivalent would be to use the Typesense search?

@clem That's correct. For now you'd have to call Typesense's REST API directly using any http library from your iOS app. @Sabesh Bharathi is actually working on a swift client, which is a syntactic wrapper around the REST API, with retries in addition.

awesome thanks @Jason Bosco! Glad to hear that there is work planned for a swift client and I look forward to using it 👌
