searchzilla v0.0.3

🔍 searchzilla

Searchzilla is a simple, easy way of implementing search on the client-side. You don't really have to read the description either, just start using it.

🍭 Usage

Simply download the files from the dist folder or install the npm version by doing npm install searchzilla or yarn add searchzilla.

Setting up

It's just a few lines of code and you can get your search up and running straightforward.

• To initialize the search instance:

  // Initialize the class

// You can pass your own data from fetch() requests as well. const mySearch = new Search({data: {id: 1, name: "Chuck norris", "description": "nobody knows me"}, {id: 2, name: "Billy Murphy", description: "people know me"}, {id: 3, name: "Audey Coda", description: "i dont wanna be known you stranger"});

// Call the init() method to initialize search mySearch.init();

You can similarly add fields to look up through the ``.add()`` method.

```js
// Looks up for only the specified fields.
mySearch.add('name', 'description');

Now simply search using the search() method like this.

// returns [{id: 3, name: "Audey Coda", description: "i dont wanna be known you stranger"}]
mySearch.search('Audey');

Blacklisting

You can black list search results using exclude: ['some', 'words'] in your search object like this:

new Search({data: someData, exclude: ['more', 'words']})

This will exclude all those results containing specific keywords that are mentioned in the exclude array. A better use-case would be to filter stopwords or profane words.

Todo

• Add key filtering for objects and lists.
• Optimizations in the current loop, hashtables?
