[Flask] full-text searching

I'm curious what others are doing for full-text searching.

I've looked at Flask-WhooshAlchemy and tried to get it working, but
didn't have much luck with it. I could be wrong, but I don't think
it's compatible with app factories, and it doesn't seem to be
maintained anymore.

I was able get flask-msearch working with a little effort and it seems
like a possibility.

I could follow the example given by Grinberg
(https://blog.miguelgrinberg.com/post/the-flask-mega-tutorial-part-xvi-full-text-search)
but I'd rather use a flask extension and keep my own code base as
minimal as possible.

Was hoping someone on the list would have some recommendations.
