search-index can be invoked with ES6 import or commonjs require
using either lazy loading or a callback:
// Make a new index, or open an existing one with this name
import si from 'search-index'
// "lazy load"- db may not be immediately initialized
db = si({ name: 'mySearchIndex' })
// ... or callback to be sure you have it in time
si({ name: 'myDB' }, (err, db) => {
// db is guaranteed to be open and available
})In the /dist folder there is a file called
search-index.<version>.js that can be used as a standalone in a
<script> tag. The library is then available under a global variable
called searchIndex:
<script type='text/javascript' src='./search-index.1.0.2.js'></script>
<script type='text/javascript'>
searchIndex({ name: 'myDB' }, (err, db) => {
// db is now available
})
</script>// db exists in a leveldb instance if run on a server
PUT([ /* my array of objects */ ]).then(doStuff)// search for terms without specifing any fields
SEARCH('SCOTLAND', 'GREEN').then(result)See the tests for more examples.
