Basic Issue - Setup about gridsome-plugin-flexsearch HOT 9 CLOSED

Hello @cartoonmadrasah

Do you possibly have a repo I could look at? If not, would you be able to show me the output of a query using that type? I.e.

query {
  predubai (id: something) {
    Id
    Emirate
    ...etc
  }
}

Those search fields look as if they may be custom object types, rather than strings/IDs etc?

Yes, as I thought, those fields are actually objects - in your server file could you do emirate: Item.emirate['_text'] for each field, so when you query emirate it will be a string? Then flexsearch should be able to index it.

I tried with the ID field. That did not work. I also tested it with one field using the method you suggested (company_name). It also did not work.

I followed the instructions as they were given but now I have basic question maybe that do I need to also import the library in the main.js or just by calling it on the gridsome.config.js sufficient.

Kindly give me your email id so that I may add you to the repository.

@cartoonmadrasah please use [email protected]

The plugin will automatically configure the client for you, so you should just be able to use this.$search in your code (or import the included mixin).

I have added you to the repo.

@cartoonmadrasah Just had a look at that repo, and it all seems to work?

searching for the ID won't work, as you need at least 3 characters to start searching... if (searchTerm.length < 3) return [] but searching for the company name should work.
Results won't show up in Search.vue, as you are trying to display result.title - try changing this to result.company_name for example.

P.S. You could also easily loop through the object keys, converting them to snake case, and setting _text as the direct value:

const { snakeCase } = require('snake-case')
for (const item of predata.Listings.Listing) {
    const doc = Object.entries(item).reduce((obj, [key, value]) => ({ [ snakeCase(key) ]: value._text, ...obj }), {})
    contentType.addNode(doc)
}

Oh wow, thank you so much.
