Full text search engine for Python
Particularly for full text search, Solr is an excellent choice.  You will have a hard time finding a more widely used and more open choice.  We use Solr/Lucene at my company with a PHP web application being the client and the HTTP/REST API to let you query the index.  It has as much functionality as a native PHP client would have and much more flexibility out of the box.  You can perform any query/filter you choose all using the REST API.  But, on top of all of that, you get an extremely performant and widely used search system with built-in replication that is constantly being improved.  Strongly recommend Solr 1.4.x as your starting point.
I'm searching for a Python full text search engine.
I took a look at PyLucense, but I think that using a Java-based library in a Python project is not good. As I understand, Sphinx does not have a Python API.
Any ideas ?
