Theme
The theme is custom made with snippets taken from the hugo capser theme.
SCSS is used for the styling. Install NPM dependencies via npm install or yarn then you can use npm run build to build the css and site once or npm run dev to watch for changes.
Search
Search is handled via Meilisearch. A nightly scrape runs to index the site pages for search.
This is all docker-based, and the configuration used can be found in the search/ directory of this repo.
Note, for localhost usage with a port, "allowed_domains": ["localhost"], should be added to the scraper config.json. [ref].
Relevant Projects:
- Meilisearch - The search engine used.
- docs-scraper - Used to scrape the site to index.
- docs-searchbar.js - The JS implementation used for the site search bar.
- I copy in the latest CDN dist files into this project.
- I edit the JS file to remove the "Powered by Meilisearch" logo to prevent external requests.
