Hi, there!

Imagine that I have a specific data string and a specific query. The simple way to check that the query matches the data is to load the data into the Elastic index and run the online query. But can I do it without putting it into the index?

Maybe there are some open-source libraries that implement the Elastic search functionality offline, so I can call something like `getScore(data, query)`? Or it's possible to implement by using specific API endpoints?

Thanks in advance!
