The Search Frontend is a plain webstrate that functions as a Google-like search page for a Webstrate server using the Search Backend's HTTP API.
Before setting up the Search Frontend to your Webstrates server, you'll need:
- An installation of the Search Backend, preferably running behind an NGINX reverse proxy.
- Webstrates File System (WFS) for deploying the frontend to your server.
To set up:
- Clone this repository with
gitor download a ZIP of the source code and unzip it. - Navigate to the repository root.
- Run the following from the root directory:
wfs . --id=<webstrateId> --host=<serverHost> --ours --oneshot
Where <webstrateId> is the desired webstrateId of the search frontend (e.g. search) and <serverHost> is the host, including potential credentials and port number (e.g. web:[email protected] or localhost:7007). If deploying to a server without HTTPS, append --insecure to the command. For more information on the usage of WFS, see the WFS documentation.
