This Web Component allows you to have a search engine similar to Vitepress easily in any framework (React, Brisa, Vue, Solid.js, Svelte, Vanilla JS, etc).
Includes:
- MiniSearch
- Mark.js
- Signals
- Declarative Shadow DOM (You can do SSR of it without problems)
Add these scripts into your <head>
:
<script type="importmap">
{
"imports": {
"brisa/client": "https://unpkg.com/brisa@latest/client-simplified/index.js"
}
}
</script>
<script type="module" src="https://unpkg.com/search-engine-wc@latest"></script>
Alternatively, you can install it via npm:
npm install search-engine-wc
And then import it in your code:
import "search-engine-wc";
[!NOTE]
You need to add the
importmap
forbrisa/client
. All the web components made with Brisa need this wrapper to run, the good thing is that if you have other WC made with Brisa you won't need again to add the 3kb thatbrisa/client
occupies.
Pre-requisites: You need to have Brisa installed.
For SSR you can use the renderToString
function from brisa/server
:
import { renderToString } from "brisa/server";
import { jsx } from "brisa/jsx-runtime";
import SearchEngineWC from "search-engine-wc/server";
const jsonUrl = "/demo.json";
const htmlString = await renderToString(jsx(SearchEngineWC, { jsonUrl }));
First install:
bun add search-engine-wc --save --exact
Then import it in your src/web-components/_integrations.ts
file:
import type { WebComponentIntegrations } from "brisa";
export default {
"search-engine-wc": {
client: "search-engine-wc",
server: "search-engine-wc/server",
types: "search-engine-wc/types",
},
} satisfies WebComponentIntegrations;
<search-engine-wc jsonUrl="/demo.json" />
To work properly you have to provide a JSON with all the sections of your pages.

css property (light
/dark
).
export default function SearchEngineWC(props: {

Good to know:
- The code is inside
src/web-components/search-engine-wc.tsx
, the other files fromsrc

bun run build
do the build of both (demo + web component). -
bun dev
you can preview the WC inside the demo on https://localhost:3000.
