Orama (default)

Overview

Fumadocs configures Orama search engine out-of-the-box.

It works through a API endpoint (route handler), or a statically cached file for Next.js apps using Static Export.

Setup

Create a search dialog.

The UI has been configured by default, you can also re-create it for further customisations:

components/search.tsx

'use client';
import { useDocsSearch } from 'fumadocs-core/search/client';
import {
  SearchDialog,
  SearchDialogClose,
  SearchDialogContent,
  SearchDialogHeader,
  SearchDialogIcon,
  SearchDialogInput,
  SearchDialogList,
  SearchDialogOverlay,
  type SharedProps,
} from 'fumadocs-ui/components/dialog/search';
import { useI18n } from 'fumadocs-ui/contexts/i18n';

export default function DefaultSearchDialog(props: SharedProps) {
  const { locale } = useI18n(); // (optional) for i18n
  const { search, setSearch, query } = useDocsSearch({
    type: 'fetch',
    locale,
  });

  return (
    <SearchDialog
      search={search}
      onSearchChange={setSearch}
      isLoading={query.isLoading}
      {...props}
    >
      <SearchDialogOverlay />
      <SearchDialogContent>
        <SearchDialogHeader>
          <SearchDialogIcon />
          <SearchDialogInput />
          <SearchDialogClose />
        </SearchDialogHeader>
        {query.data !== 'empty' && query.data && (
          <SearchDialogList items={query.data} />
        )}
      </SearchDialogContent>
    </SearchDialog>
  );
}

For Static Export, you can configure static mode on search server, and use the static client:

npm install @orama/orama

pnpm add @orama/orama

yarn add @orama/orama

bun add @orama/orama

components/search.tsx

'use client';
import {
  SearchDialog,
  SearchDialogClose,
  SearchDialogContent,
  SearchDialogHeader,
  SearchDialogIcon,
  SearchDialogInput,
  SearchDialogList,
  SearchDialogOverlay,
  type SharedProps,
} from 'fumadocs-ui/components/dialog/search';
import { useDocsSearch } from 'fumadocs-core/search/client';
import { create } from '@orama/orama';
import { useI18n } from 'fumadocs-ui/contexts/i18n';

function initOrama() {
  return create({
    schema: { _: 'string' },
  });
}

export default function DefaultSearchDialog(props: SharedProps) {
  const { locale } = useI18n(); // (optional) for i18n
  const { search, setSearch, query } = useDocsSearch({
    type: 'static',
    initOrama,
    locale,
  });

  return (
    <SearchDialog
      search={search}
      onSearchChange={setSearch}
      isLoading={query.isLoading}
      {...props}
    >
      <SearchDialogOverlay />
      <SearchDialogContent>
        <SearchDialogHeader>
          <SearchDialogIcon />
          <SearchDialogInput />
          <SearchDialogClose />
        </SearchDialogHeader>
        {query.data !== 'empty' && query.data && (
          <SearchDialogList items={query.data} />
        )}
      </SearchDialogContent>
    </SearchDialog>
  );
}

Replace Search Dialog

To use your own search dialog, make a client-side <RootProvider /> wrapper, and replace the original root provider with it.

'use client';
import { RootProvider } from 'fumadocs-ui/provider';
// your custom dialog
import SearchDialog from '@/components/search';
import type { ReactNode } from 'react';

export function Provider({ children }: { children: ReactNode }) {
  return (
    <RootProvider
      search={{
        SearchDialog,
      }}
    >
      {children}
    </RootProvider>
  );
}

import { Provider } from './provider';
import type { ReactNode } from 'react';

export default function Layout({ children }: { children: ReactNode }) {
  return (
    <html lang="en">
      <body>
        <Provider>{children}</Provider>
      </body>
    </html>
  );
}

Tag Filter

Optionally, you can add UI for filtering results by tags. Configure Tag Filter on search server and add the following:

'use client';

import {
  SearchDialog,
  SearchDialogContent,
  SearchDialogFooter,
  SearchDialogOverlay,
  type SharedProps,
  TagsList,
  TagsListItem,
} from 'fumadocs-ui/components/dialog/search';
import { useState } from 'react';
import { useDocsSearch } from 'fumadocs-core/search/client';

export default function CustomSearchDialog(props: SharedProps) {
  const [tag, setTag] = useState<string | undefined>();
  const { search, setSearch, query } = useDocsSearch({
    tag,
  });

  return (
    <SearchDialog>
      <SearchDialogOverlay />
      <SearchDialogContent>
        ...
        <SearchDialogFooter className="flex flex-row">
          <TagsList tag={tag} onTagChange={setTag}>
            <TagsListItem value="my-value">My Value</TagsListItem>
          </TagsList>
        </SearchDialogFooter>
      </SearchDialogContent>
    </SearchDialog>
  );
}
