Full-text search in Quartz is powered by [Flexsearch](https://github.com/nextapps-de/flexsearch). It's fast enough to return search results in under 10ms for Quartzs as large as half a million words.
It can be opened by either clicking on the search bar or pressing ⌘+K. The top 5 search results are shown on each query. Matching subterms are highlighted and the most relevant 30 words are excerpted. Clicking on a search result will navigate to that page.
This component is also keyboard accessible: Tab and Shift+Tab will cycle forward and backward through search results and Enter will navigate to the highlighted result (first result by default).
> [!info]
> Search requires the `ContentIndex` emitter plugin to be present in the [[configuration]].
### Indexing Behaviour
By default, it indexes every page on the site with **Markdown syntax removed**. This means link URLs for instance are not indexed.
It properly tokenizes Chinese, Korean, and Japenese characters and constructs separate indexes for the title and content, weighing title matches above content matches.
## Customization
- Removing search: delete all usages of `Component.Search()` from `quartz.config.ts`.
- Component: `quartz/components/Search.tsx`
- Style: `quartz/components/styles/search.scss`
- Script: `quartz/components/scripts/search.inline.ts`
- You can edit `contextWindowWords` or `numSearchResults` to suit your needs
