vue-searchbox - Vue SearchBox is a standalone, lightweight(~27KB: Minified + Gzipped) search library that provides scaffolding to create search experiences powered by Elasticsearch.
How does it work
vue-searchbox provides declarative props to query Elasticsearch and bind the search state with the UI components. The vue-searchbox library provides a built-in UI component called SearchBox. As the name suggests, SearchBox component is useful for creating a search box UI. It also provides a general purpose SearchComponent to bind to UI components for displaying different kinds of facets and results.
Example use-cases are:
- To perform a search across e-commerce products by its
nameordescriptionfields - To create a category filter component
- To create a price range search filter
- To build a location filter
- To render the search results etc.
This library is divided into three components:
SearchBase is a provider component that provides the SearchBase context to the child components. It binds the backend app (data source) with the UI view components (elements wrapped within SearchBase), allowing a UI component to be reactively updated every time there is a change in the data source or in other UI components.
SearchBox offers a ready to use, lightweight, and performance-focused searchbox UI component to query and display results from your Elasticsearch cluster.
SearchComponent can be used to build different kinds of search experiences. For examples,
- a search bar component,
- a category filter component,
- a price range component,
- a location filter component,
- a component to render the search results etc.
