Hi,

I am trying to implement this functionality on my webpage. It is the first time that I create a webpage using Umbraco and I am still learning...

Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?

When the search is launched, the result always is empty... nothing returns...

Here is mi code:

ExamineIndex.config

<!-- Index set for search box -->
    <IndexSet SetName="SearchBoxIndexSet" IndexPath="~/App_Data/TEMP/ExamineIndexes/SearchBox/">
        <IndexAttributeFields>
            <add Name="id" />
            <add Name="nodeName" />
            <add Name="updateDate" />
            <add Name="writerName" />
            <add Name="path" />
            <add Name="nodeTypeAlias" />
            <add Name="parentID" />
        </IndexAttributeFields>
        <IndexUserFields>
            <add Name="newsText" />
        </IndexUserFields>        
        <IncludeNodeTypes>
            <add Name="News" />
        </IncludeNodeTypes>
        <ExcludeNodeTypes />
    </IndexSet>

 ExamineSettings.config

<add name="SearchBoxIndexer" type="UmbracoExamine.UmbracoMemberIndexer, UmbracoExamine"           
           supportUnpublished="false"
           supportProtected="false"
           interval="10"
           indexSet="SearchBoxIndexSet"
           analyzer="Lucene.Net.Analysis.Standard.StandardAnalyzer, Lucene.Net"/>

<add name="SearchBoxSearcher" type="UmbracoExamine.UmbracoExamineSearcher, UmbracoExamine"
           analyzer="Lucene.Net.Analysis.Standard.StandardAnalyzer, Lucene.Net" indexSet="SearchBoxIndexSet" />

SearchJSON.cshtml

@using Examine
@using Examine.SearchCriteria
@using System.Web.Script.Serialization

@{
    //Get the domain (http://localhost:6436)
    var siteURL = "http://" + Request.Url.Authority;
    
    //Get the values posted from the form
    var searchTerm = Request["term"];

    //Check if searchTerm is null from the posted form data...
    if (String.IsNullOrEmpty(searchTerm))
    {
        //Stop all other code running in this Macro
        return;
    }

    var searcher = ExamineManager.Instance.SearchProviderCollection["SearchBoxSearcher"];
    var searchCriteria = searcher.CreateSearchCriteria(BooleanOperation.Or);
    var query = searchCriteria.GroupedOr(new string[] { "newsText" }, searchTerm).Compile();
    var searchResults = searcher.Search(query);
    
    /*
    EXAMPLE JSON
    [{ "id": "http://localhost/about.aspx", "label": "About", "value": "About" }]
    */

    List<dynamic> searchResultKeyVals = new List<dynamic>();
    
    //Convert the search results as JSON
    foreach(var result in searchResults)
    {
        searchResultKeyVals.Add(new {
            id = siteURL + umbraco.library.NiceUrl(result.Id),
            label = result.Fields["newsText"],
            value = result.Fields["newsText"]
        });
    }
    
    JavaScriptSerializer serializer = new JavaScriptSerializer();
    var JSONResults = serializer.Serialize(searchResultKeyVals);    
}

@* Ouput the JSON *@
@Html.Raw(JSONResults)

Thanks!
