> **Note:** This package is mostly for internal use by Verdaccio and is only intended to be used with Verdaccio 6.x.

## Overview

The `@verdaccio/search-indexer` package provides an in-memory full-text search index for packages using the [Orama](https://orama.com/) search engine. It indexes package name, description, version, keywords, and author for fast search queries.

## Installation

```bash
npm install @verdaccio/search-indexer
```

## Usage

```typescript
import { SearchMemoryIndexer } from '@verdaccio/search-indexer';

const indexer = new SearchMemoryIndexer();

// Configure storage reference
indexer.configureStorage(storage);

// Index a package
await indexer.add(packageMetadata);

// Search for packages
const results = await indexer.query('express');

// Search all packages
const all = await indexer.query('*');

// Remove a package from the index
await indexer.remove('my-package');

// Reindex all packages from storage
await indexer.reindex();
```

### API

The `SearchMemoryIndexer` class provides:

- **`configureStorage(storage)`** - Sets the storage reference for reindexing
- **`query(term)`** - Searches the index by keyword. Use `'*'` to return all indexed packages
- **`add(pkg)`** - Indexes a package with its name, description, version, keywords, and author
- **`remove(name)`** - Removes a package from the index
- **`reindex()`** - Forces a full reindex of all packages from storage
