You're in the right place. Tantiny is a minimalistic full-text search library for Ruby based on Tantivy (an awesome alternative to Apache Lucene written in Rust). It's great for cases when your task at hand requires a full-text search, but configuring a full-blown distributed search engine would take more time than the task itself. And even if you already use such an engine in your project (which is highly likely, actually), it still might be easier to just use Tantiny instead because unlike Solr and Elasticsearch it doesn't need anything to work (no separate server or process or whatever), it's purely embeddable. So, when you find yourself in a situation when using your search engine of choice would be tricky/inconvinient or would require additional setup you can always revert back to a quick and dirty solution that is nontheless flexible and fast.
