doctave VS elasticlunr.js

(For an example of a site generated by the open source Doctave docs site generator, you can take a look at its own docs.)

Secondly, you have to think about search. If you use a documentation site generator to turn your Markdown docs into HTML sites, even if the toolchain builds a search index for the site, you will end up with N disconnected sites for N projects. Doctave.com can help with this if you are using our open source documentation site generator.

Finally, do try out Doctave 0.2.0! If you're looking for a batteries-included documentation generator that doesn't require plugins, doesn't pollute your repository with loads of files, and doesn't need a specialized environment to run, Doctave may be a good choice for you. It also comes with Mermaid JS diagram support and dark mode!

I'm not sure specifically what you're looking for but perhaps consider this: https://github.com/Doctave/doctave The main site: https://www.doctave.com/

We have a backlog of features and tweaks we are working on for Doctave. I’d love to hear your feedback, so if you give Doctave a spin, let me know what you think! You can reach out to me directly on Twitter or open an issue on GitHub.

When i did my static site search function some time ago, I used Elasticlunr. I was able to pregenerate the index file as a big json file that is loaded at the client.

If your content is mostly static, you might want to consider pre-building an index and shipping it as a whole. You could look into something like

* https://stork-search.net/ (Rust/WASM)

* tinysearch: https://github.com/tinysearch/tinysearch (Rust/WASM)

* https://lunrjs.com/ (JS, simple, stable)

* http://elasticlunr.com/ - based on the former, slightly more sophisticated tuning options

Very nice! Seems to perform very well. I'm curious, have you compared Fuse with other search engines? Like flex search or elasticlunr? Why did you choose fuse ?

Check out elasticlunr

There's also Elasticlunr which is based off of lunr.js and is what mdBook uses

http://elasticlunr.com/

Does this relate to http://elasticlunr.com/? mdBook uses the latter, and I was wondering how I can parse/read its indexes from Python so I can provide my own search from them.

Same as above, for most blogs something like http://elasticlunr.com/ can get the job done really well.

3. HotSwap on the fly themes

Doctave comes with offline search built in. We use the elasticlunr-rs crate to generate a search index that is compatible with the elasticlunr.js library. You can see it in action by going to our docs (built with the CLI, naturally) and hitting the letter s on your keyboard to focus on the search bar. The searching happens entirely client-side.
