Search
Local Search
VitePress supports fuzzy full-text search using a in-browser index thanks to minisearch. To enable this feature, simply set the themeConfig.search.provider option to 'local' in your .vitepress/config.ts file:
import { defineConfig } from 'vitepress'
export default defineConfig({
themeConfig: {
search: {
provider: 'local'
}
}
})
Example result:
Alternatively, you can use Algolia DocSearch or some community plugins like https://www.npmjs.com/package/vitepress-plugin-search or https://www.npmjs.com/package/vitepress-plugin-pagefind.
i18n
You can use a config like this to use multilingual search:
import { defineConfig } from 'vitepress'
export default defineConfig({
themeConfig: {
search: {
provider: 'local',
options: {
locales: {
zh: {
translations: {
button: {
buttonText: '搜索文档',
buttonAriaLabel: '搜索文档'
},
modal: {
noResultsText: '无法找到相关结果',
resetButtonTitle: '清除查询条件',
footer: {
selectText: '选择',
navigateText: '切换'
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
})
miniSearch options
You can configure MiniSearch like this:
import { defineConfig } from 'vitepress'
export default defineConfig({
themeConfig: {
search: {
provider: 'local',
options: {
miniSearch: {
/**
* @type {Pick<import('minisearch').Options, 'extractField' | 'tokenize' | 'processTerm'>}
*/
options: {
/* ... */
},
/**
* @type {import('minisearch').SearchOptions}
* @default
* { fuzzy: 0.2, prefix: true, boost: { title: 4, text: 2, titles: 1 } }
*/
searchOptions: {
/* ... */
}
}
}
}
}
})
Learn more in MiniSearch docs.
Custom content renderer
You can customize the function used to render the markdown content before indexing it:
import { defineConfig } from 'vitepress'
export default defineConfig({
themeConfig: {
search: {
provider: 'local',
options: {
/**
* @param {string} src
* @param {import('vitepress').MarkdownEnv} env
* @param {import('markdown-it')} md
*/
_render(src, env, md) {
// return html string
}
}
}
}
})
This function will be stripped from client-side site data, so you can use Node.js APIs in it.
Example: Excluding pages from search
You can exclude pages from search by adding search: false to the frontmatter of the page. Alternatively:
import { defineConfig } from 'vitepress'
export default defineConfig({
themeConfig: {
search: {
provider: 'local',
options: {
_render(src, env, md) {
const html = md.render(src, env)
if (env.frontmatter?.search === false) return ''
if (env.relativePath.startsWith('some/path')) return ''
return html
}
}
}
}
})
::: warning Note
In case a custom _render function is provided, you need to handle the search: false frontmatter yourself. Also, the env object won't be completely populated before md.render is called, so any checks on optional env properties like frontmatter should be done after that.
:::
Example: Transforming content - adding anchors
import { defineConfig } from 'vitepress'
export default defineConfig({
themeConfig: {
search: {
provider: 'local',
options: {
_render(src, env, md) {
const html = md.render(src, env)
if (env.frontmatter?.title)
return md.render(`# ${env.frontmatter.title}`) + html
return html
}
}
}
}
})
Algolia Search
VitePress supports searching your docs site using Algolia DocSearch. Refer their getting started guide. In your .vitepress/config.ts you'll need to provide at least the following to make it work:
import { defineConfig } from 'vitepress'
export default defineConfig({
themeConfig: {
search: {
provider: 'algolia',
options: {
appId: '...',
apiKey: '...',
indexName: '...'
}
}
}
})
i18n
You can use a config like this to use multilingual search:
import { defineConfig } from 'vitepress'
export default defineConfig({
themeConfig: {
search: {
provider: 'algolia',
options: {
appId: '...',
apiKey: '...',
indexName: '...',
locales: {
zh: {
placeholder: '搜索文档',
translations: {
button: {
buttonText: '搜索文档',
buttonAriaLabel: '搜索文档'
},
modal: {
searchBox: {
resetButtonTitle: '清除查询条件',
resetButtonAriaLabel: '清除查询条件',
cancelButtonText: '取消',
cancelButtonAriaLabel: '取消'
},
startScreen: {
recentSearchesTitle: '搜索历史',
noRecentSearchesText: '没有搜索历史',
saveRecentSearchButtonTitle: '保存至搜索历史',
removeRecentSearchButtonTitle: '从搜索历史中移除',
favoriteSearchesTitle: '收藏',
removeFavoriteSearchButtonTitle: '从收藏中移除'
},
errorScreen: {
titleText: '无法获取结果',
helpText: '你可能需要检查你的网络连接'
},
footer: {
selectText: '选择',
navigateText: '切换',
closeText: '关闭',
searchByText: '搜索提供者'
},
noResultsScreen: {
noResultsText: '无法找到相关结果',
suggestedQueryText: '你可以尝试查询',
reportMissingResultsText: '你认为该查询应该有结果？',
reportMissingResultsLinkText: '点击反馈'
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
})
These options can be overridden. Refer official Algolia docs to learn more about them.
