Recent Queries

Records user queries and displays it in the UI. The component supports two modes: omnibox mode or standalone mode.

The omnibox mode will append the recent queries under the query suggestions. The standalone mode will display the recent queries under the <div class="CoveoRecentQueries"> HTML tag.

Getting Started

  1. Install the component into your project.
npm i @coveops/recent-queries
  1. Use the Component or extend it

Typescript:

import { RecentQueries, IRecentQueriesOptions } from '@coveops/recent-queries';

Javascript

const RecentQueries = require('@coveops/recent-queries').RecentQueries;
  1. You can also expose the component alongside other components being built in your project.
export * from '@coveops/recent-queries'
  1. Or for quick testing, you can add the script from unpkg
<script src="https://unpkg.com/@coveops/recent-queries@latest/dist/index.min.js"></script>

Disclaimer: Unpkg should be used for testing but not for production.

  1. Include the component in your template as follows:

Omnibox mode:

Place the component after the CoveoSearchBox HTML tag

    <div class="CoveoSearchbox" data-enable-omnibox="true"></div>
    <div class="CoveoRecentQueries" data-show-in-query-suggest="true"></div>

Standalone mode:

It is still recommended to place the component after the CoveoSearchBox HTML tag, but can be placed anywhere within the CoveoSearchInterface

    <div class="CoveoSearchbox" data-enable-omnibox="true"></div>
    <div class="CoveoRecentQueries" data-show-in-query-suggest="false"></div>
