This application allows you to search in your SharePoint tenant using the SharePoint Search REST API.

This application has been built using React and Webpack and demonstrates how you can implement the Flux architecture for unidirectional data flow in combination with leveraging SharePoint REST APIs. UX is implemented using Office UI Fabric.

In order to use this application you need a SharePoint 2013/2016 tenant. While this application has been built on SharePoint Online, it should work as well with SharePoint on-premises.

Following are the steps that you need to complete in order to see this application working in your tenant:

• clone this repository
• in the js/stores/SearchResultsStore.js on line 51 change the URL to the URL of your SharePoint tenant
• in the command line run

$ npm run dist

• rename index.html to search.aspx
• upload search.aspx, app.dist.js and app.dist.js.map to a SharePoint Document Library
• in your web browser navigate to the search.aspx page

When developing you can use the $ npm start command. It will start a new instance of the webpack web server on https://localhost:8443. Please note that from that page you won't be able to connect to your SharePoint tenant but you will be able to test how the events flow in the application.
