# hyper-p2p-inverted-index
Distributed inverted index with term-level gossip sync over Hyperswarm.
**Category:** indexes-search
**Composes with:** hyper-p2p-topic-channel
**Protocol:** `inverted-index/v1`
## When to use
Peer-assisted document lookup where each node indexes local docs and merges remote term postings via gossip.
## When not to use
Large-scale search requiring ranked full-text scoring (use hyper-p2p-fulltext-lite) or exact global consistency without merge semantics.
## Quick start
```js
const { HyperP2PInvertedIndex } = require('hyper-p2p-inverted-index')
const topic = process.argv[2]
const mod = new HyperP2PInvertedIndex({ topic })
await mod.ready()
mod.index('doc-1', ['pear', 'p2p'])
console.log(mod.search('pear'))
await mod.close()
```
