💡 Getting Started
First, install Algolia JavaScript API Client via the npm package manager:
npm install --save algoliasearch
Then, create objects on your index:
const algoliasearch = require('algoliasearch');
const client = algoliasearch('YourApplicationID', 'YourAdminAPIKey');
const index = client.initIndex('your_index_name');
const objects = [{
objectID: 1,
name: 'Foo'
}];
index
.saveObjects(objects)
.then(({ objectIDs }) => {
console.log(objectIDs);
})
.catch(err => {
console.log(err);
});
Finally, let's actually search using the search
method:
index
.search('Fo')
.then(({ hits }) => {
console.log(hits);
})
.catch(err => {
console.log(err);
});
