Whoosh is a fast, pure-Python indexing and search library. Programmers can use it to easily add search functionality to their applications and websites. As Whoosh is pure Python, you don't have to compile or install a binary support library and/or make Python work with a JVM, yet indexing and searching is still very fast. Whoosh is designed to be modular, so every part can be extended or replaced to meet your needs exactly.
