# Instant Search
|
|
|
|
Powered by [Laravel Scout](https://github.com/laravel/scout), Koel provides an instant search feature that performs full-text,
|
|
fuzzy searches against your music collection and returns the most relevant results as you type.
|
|
|
|
<video controls playsinline>
|
|
<source src="../assets/videos/search.webm" type="video/webm"/>
|
|
<source src="../assets/videos/search.mp4" type="video/mp4"/>
|
|
</video>
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
Out of the box, Koel uses [TNTSearch](https://github.com/teamtnt/tntsearch), a powerful full-text search engine written entirely in PHP and requires no configuration.
|
|
|
|
Switching to [Algolia](https://www.algolia.com/) is just a matter of changing the driver value to `algolia` and populating the credentials into `.env`:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
SCOUT_DRIVER=algolia
|
|
ALGOLIA_APP_ID=<your-algolia-app-id>
|
|
ALGOLIA_SECRET=<your-algolia-secret>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Similarly, you can use [Meilisearch](https://www.meilisearch.com/):
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
SCOUT_DRIVER=meilisearch
|
|
MEILISEARCH_HOST=<your-meilisearch-host>
|
|
MEILISEARCH_KEY=<your-meilisearch-key>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Update the Search Index
|
|
|
|
If the configuration is done after you have already populated Koel with songs, you'll need to update the search index.
|
|
You can do so by running this command:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
php artisan koel:search:import
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Afterward and for future changes, the index will be updated automatically whenever you add, update, or delete songs, albums, or artists.
|
|
There's literally nothing you need to do to keep the index up to date.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
To use the instant search, simply start typing in the search box at the top left of the screen or pressing <kbd>F</kbd>.
|
|
You'll see the results appear as you type.
