Overview

This article provides an example of implementing search functionality for JAMstack sites using Hugo, a pre-built Netlify Function (Lambda), and Lunrjs. It explains the process of generating a dump of all content during Hugo build, building a search index file using Lunrjs, and deploying the search index as a Netlify Function along with the site.

Features

Hugo Content Dump: During Hugo build, a dump of all content is created.
Lunrjs Search Index: The content dump is used to build a search index file using Lunrjs.
Netlify Function Deployment: The search index is integrated as a Netlify Function and deployed along with the site.

Summary

This article demonstrates how to implement search functionality for JAMstack sites using Hugo, a pre-built Netlify Function (Lambda), and Lunrjs. By generating a content dump during Hugo build, building a search index file using Lunrjs, and deploying the search index as a Netlify Function, site owners can enable search functionality on their JAMstack sites.
