search
/search
allows you to perform full text searches over a dictionary. Dictionaries must be indexed before this endpoint is used, otherwise it will throw an error. It is equivalent to the search CLI command. Results are returned only as JSON.
Example Usage
curl "http://localhost:5005/search?dictionary=wikieng&query=dog"
