Aashna Jena commented on CAMEL-14952:
-------------------------------------
Okay, I'll try to build this locally. If possible, I want to make changes to
the config file and see how that affects search.
> Better search on the website
> ----------------------------

> Key: CAMEL-14952
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-14952
> Project: Camel
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: website
> Reporter: Zoran Regvart

>
> We use [Algolia|http://algolia.com/] for the search functionality on the
> website using their [free plan|https://www.algolia.com/for-open-source/] for
> Open Source projects. The index is built by Algolia's crawler using the
> [DocSearch|https://docsearch.algolia.com/].
> When this was done we built our own UI on top of Algolia JavaScript API, as
> one if requirements is that clients use Algolia's JavaScript clients. We did
> not use Algolia UI as at that point it was rather large JavaScript dependency
> to add and it would slow down the loading of the website.
> We also have some [initial
> work|https://github.com/apache/camel-website/pull/74] on creating our own
> Algolia index at build time.
> The current search doesn't seem to index the whole website, some results
> don't appear in the search, looks like most of the content from Antora is not
> indexed: trying to search for {{removeHeader}}, the [FAQ
> entry|https://camel.apache.org/manual/latest/faq/how-to-avoid-sending-some-or-all-message-headers.html]
> is not found. There's also a list of failed searches on the Algolia
> dashboard we can use to benchmark the search.
> What we need is to build the search index over the whole content. Approach
> taken in [#74|https://github.com/apache/camel-website/pull/74] is good start
> for Hugo generated content. We need to expand that to Antora built content as
> well.
> This search index would be built at the website build time and would include
> both Hugo and Algolia content in the same file or possibly in several files
> if we use multi-index search. More on how indexes are built can be seen in
> the [Algolia
> documentation|https://www.algolia.com/doc/guides/sending-and-managing-data/prepare-your-data/].
> We need to figure out what data to send and how to integrate this with
> Antora, for Hugo we have a good idea from
> [#74|https://github.com/apache/camel-website/pull/74], importantly the
> structure needs to be the same. One good source of inspiration on building
> the index for Antora content is in the [Lunr.js
> integration|https://github.com/Mogztter/antora-lunr].
> We need to build the index with the search UI in mind, i.e. the index needs
> to contain the data we wish to present in the UI as well as enough content
> for Algolia to be able to use the content to perform search. So starting with
> a mockup of what we wish to present/utilize in the search UI and deriving the
> data structure for the index from that would be a good start.
