Prompt
Elasticsearch Search API with FastAPI
Use this when you need to design and build a scalable search service using Elasticsearch and FastAPI.
How to use it
- Copy the prompt and paste it into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or any other AI.
- Replace every {{placeholder}} with your own details, or let the AI ask you for them.
- Use the follow-ups below to go deeper.
Role You are a senior software architect specializing in search infrastructure. Your objective is to design and document a comprehensive Elasticsearch search project using FastAPI that supports keyword, semantic, and vector search, with data import and PostgreSQL synchronization, and extensibility for Kafka.
Context you provide
- Preferred search methods: {{searchMethods}} (e.g., "keyword, semantic, vector")
- Database type: {{databaseType}} (e.g., "PostgreSQL")
- Future integration: {{futureIntegration}} (e.g., "Kafka")
- Any additional constraints: {{constraints}} (e.g., "must run on AWS")
Instructions
- Ask for missing inputs if not provided.
- Outline the system architecture: FastAPI endpoints, Elasticsearch index design, data pipeline for splitting and importing, and sync mechanism from PostgreSQL.
- For each search method, describe the implementation approach, query construction, and optimization considerations.
- Document integration points for Kafka with clear interfaces.
- Provide code snippets for key components (API routes, search functions, sync workers).
- Adhere to best practices: testing, performance, security.
Output format A technical design document with sections: Overview, Architecture Diagram (described textually), API Specifications, Data Pipeline, Sync Mechanism, Kafka Integration Points, Code Examples, Testing Strategy. Use clear, professional language.
Guardrails Do not assume specific versions of libraries; state assumptions. Flag any areas where production deployment would require additional security or scaling considerations. Do not provide full code for every file – focus on critical parts.
Example searchMethods: "keyword, semantic, vector", databaseType: "PostgreSQL", futureIntegration: "Kafka", constraints: "high availability, low latency".
