In mailman3, the archivers are separated from the mailman core.I was working on mm3. But systers' indexer/searcher was implemented for mailman2. So it must be easy for to integrate it with mm2.
Looks like archiver for mm3 is still in development stage. As far as I understand searcher depends on the srchiver, right? Not completely but it somewhat depends on archiver. I am not sure if searcher can be implemented without archiver. If possible I can implement for mm3 also.
The searcher wouldn't be much use without an archiver. There is a sample archiver in mailman core -- if enabled, it stores the messages to lists in maildirs. It does not have a frontend for retrieving or otherwise displaying the archives.
In some of the other threads here, it was brought up that a builtin archiver with the same feature set of pipermail could be desirable. If you're interested in integrating search into mailman I'd watch (and participate!) in that thread to see what the outcome of that discussion is.

Yet. :)
Probably a simplistic approach would be to extend the REST API to expose the IMessageStore as a top-level resource. At the simplest, it could provide a GET API which would accept Message-ID or X-Message-ID-Hash values and return the contents of the message, or a 404 if it doesn't exist in the store.
