Search plugin
Search plugin for Payload enables fast searching of document records.
Installation
pnpm add @payloadcms/plugin-search About
The Search plugin for Payload adds functionality to create records for documents that can be searched efficiently. It integrates directly with Payload, allowing users to define their search configurations, including which collections are searchable. Users can choose to enable or disable localization, manage draft synchronization, and set indexing priorities for different documents. The plugin provides hooks to manage document changes, enabling automatic updates to the search index whenever documents are added, modified, or deleted. Configuration options include the ability to set batch sizes for re-indexing large collections, control over whether drafts are included in the search index, and hooks for custom synchronization logic. This allows for flexible integration based on localization needs or custom requirements, making the plugin suitable for various content management scenarios.
