Designed with static publishing systems in mind (like the popular Ruby on Rails tool, Jekyll), Tapir handles search through RSS and JavaScript without the overhead of a database on your own server. Tapir offers a JSON-based API and relies on Tire behind the scenes (which is powered by Elasticsearch, which in turn is powered by Lucene).
To use Tapir all you need to do is write a simple JavaScript-based search form, query the Tapir index for your site and then parse out the results to display for your visitors — via Webmonkey
