  <p>The <a href="http://squarebit.co.uk/software/craft/searchplus">SearchPlus</a> plugin by <a href="http://squarebit.co.uk">SquareBit</a> (currently in private beta) integrates directly with Algolia and handles all the index population and updates. </p>

  <p>It seems like there are a few potential approaches with their Php and Js libraries. Does anyone recommend a particular approach or best practice for integrating a service like this with Craft. </p>

  Disclaimer : I'm the dev of the SearchPlus plugin
  
  The [SearchPlus](http://squarebit.co.uk/software/craft/searchplus) plugin by [SquareBit](http://squarebit.co.uk) (currently in private beta) integrates directly with Algolia and handles all the index population and updates.
  
  There's also a few helpers for integrating on the front-end.
  
  All told - you should be able to just drop the plugin onto the site, configure your indexes and start a population action, drop a bit of js on the front-end and you're done.

  Seems like a pretty straight forward integration with a Craft [plugin](http://buildwithcraft.com/docs/plugins/introduction), then.
  
  They've already got a PHP client up on [packagist](https://packagist.org/packages/algolia/algoliasearch-client-php) and what looks to be pretty [extensive documentation](https://www.algolia.com/doc/php#setup) how to use it.
